Good for special occasions

For three decades the name Riccio has been synonymous with fine dining in the desert. Richard and Patricia Riccio set the bar for outstanding Italian cuisine 40 years ago when they opened the original Riccio’s in uptown Palm Springs. Two of their sons, eager to carry on the family tradition, last spring unveiled Riccio’s Steak and Seafood with a new menu concept in a higher profile location downtown. Service and personal attention have been the Riccio’s hallmark and they pledge to continue this tradition.

For the casual diner, Riccio’s offers a relaxed patio presentation for watching downtown Palm Springs unfold while sampling their intriguing, seasonally changing menu. Riccio’s bar faces lively Palm Canyon Drive, and picture windows frame a sculptural fountain.

The desert's top steak and seafood restaurant. Come taste why over 40 years of customers keep coming back to this downtown landmark.

Food was incredible, Vodka Penne was very flavourful, and Filet Mignon was cook perfectly. Homemade Tiramisu was a perfect way to cap off the meal. Service was very friendly, perfectly timed when they came to the table.

Good was excellent and the menu had many choices. Classic Northern Italian choices. As a woman, I would have appreciated a less-sexist server. He looked to my partner for the order, served him first, asked him what he wanted, etc. I was practically non-existent as a customer—clearly it was all about “the man at the table”. I recommend that the management discuss this with their staff. I paid the bill and tipped appropriately, but was not happy.

Very disappointing overall. Food was not served hot, service was ok. We won’t be back. Escargot was made with spinach? WTF, gross. Clam chowder was thin and cold, Marsala chicken had more garlic than anyone could stomach, bread was not fresh, had to ask for butter and then bring one super tiny container of it for 4 adults. Need I continue?

We had the special and it was very good. I loved the more intimate atmosphere of the restaurant and the attentive service. It was our first time and we will return the next time we are in Palm Springs.
