Ricci’s is brilliant. The food is fabulous and the service is great. The only reason I haven’t given 5 stars for ambiance is because it was really chilly. Most people had their coats on. It was one of the coldest nights of the year but it really should have had the heating cranked up. It was a shame because it took the edge off a lovely night. It won’t stop me going back there though because the food (and that at Ricci’s Tapas) is the best for miles around.

We had a lovely meal - special Turbot with garlic mash, it was divine. Our young waiter Travis was so attentive and enthusiastic - if you could bottle that you would make a fortune. Always enjoy Ricci's - thank you

We were meeting a friend from Portugal who was staying at the White Swan and Ricci's Place was ideal. The food was delicious and it was quiet enough for my 100 year old mother to hear the conversation. I have already recommended it to a few people.
