"Was so looking forward to dining here but went away disappointed. Had the special half moon ravioli stuffed with prawns and leeks in a lobster sauce. First impression when the plate was set down was so unappetizing. We eat with our eyes first and this dish was so bland looking on the white plate and after first bite very disappointing. Cute decor but probably will never go back. For the money so many more places so much better."

"I had dinner at Riccardo on 5/2 with a friend of mine. As I was waiting for my friend to arrive, I sat at the bar. The staff was very friendly and very accessible at all times.

We asked our server for food recommendations, which he gave and we enjoyed everything that we picked. Note - Definitely get the Ricotta stuffed meatballs!! The space is small, which I like because it feels very cozy and warm. This would certainly be a good date spot. The lasagna was fantastic, and although we didn't save room for dessert, the list looked very tempting."

"Two out of three isn't bad: The garbanzo bean soup and the Asparagus Milanese (asparagus with fried eggs)were very, very good. The Caprese appetizer though.... The tomato was pretty woody and tasteless (Whole Foods has much better tomatos), and the mozarella just OK. I'll definitely go back, just order a little differently.

The wine list is pretty good, too."

"Was a little disappointed in Riccardo Enoteca. Maybe because I was comparing it to Riccardo across the street. We all ordered pizza and expected it to be your typical flatbread, thin pizza. It was more like domino's pizza. Place is really cute and intimate. I would maybe go there for drinks again or I'd like to try a pasta but was not impressed with the pizza. They are fairly new so maybe they'll step up their game!"

"I don't think Enoteca is really much less expensive than Riccardo Trattoria, across the street but the food seems to be just as good, with a smaller menu, and, although it's also a small place, it's easier to get a table. We went Sunday night, tried many dishes and liked all of them. The special lobster ravioli and the spicy shrimp with polenta were wonderful specials. The veal caprese, cheese plate, arugula salad and cognac pate were great. The carpaccio was a bit skimpy but good. The bruscetta was more of a standard, also nice. One wine was returned and they quickly agreed it was bad. The service was perfunctory but efficient. They let the food do the talking and it speaks well to me!"

"We often go to Riccardo Tratoria and were anxious to try the Enotecca. We throughly enjoyed the experience. The octopus carpaccio was delicious as was the veal parmigiana. My wife had the ravioli which were tender and flavorful. The wine list has a number of good, reasonably priced choices. The pizzas looked delicious as well. The room is small and a bit noisy, but it's designed as a casual spot. We are looking forward to returning."

"We have been to this location twice and it is just as great as the Riccardo's that we love across the street. One of the things we like best are the right sized portions. We certainly prefer the nice, clear, simple but by no means plain tastes in a perfect portion than a huge portion that is dull and swimming in sauce and cheese. We are so happy to have both of these outstanding restaurants in our neighborhood."
