    This is exactly what you’d want for a traditional delicious Italian dinner in the beautiful North End! I’m so grateful to the hostess and staff because my reservation head count kept changing (people calling out sick) and they were so gracious and understanding. We (those who actually showed up) had a delightful meal and lovely evening.

    Great atmosphere although they need a double entryway for the winter. Very cold as people coming in left door open.. Good food except for calamari. It was very tough. All in it was a nice night out with our family.

    The food we had tasted good but everything was cold or room temp. The espresso was not good and the cup that wasn’t in contact with the coffee was cold, as if someone went down the street to another restaurant and brought it back. I would say that Riccardo’s is your typical tourist red sauce joint-decent cheesey-saucey fried food with overcooked pasta and overpriced, but hey it’s the North End.
