Whenever we go to the south Portland area for a shopping trip, we try to eat at Riccardo's. We have travelled to Italy quite a few times and find the food at Riccardo's pretty darn authentic with great adaptations to use the local products of Oregon. Extremely nice staff. We shared the polenta appetizer - yum! They used local chanterelles... More

Have been going there for many years now. The wine list is awesome, and the recommendations are usually perfect for what price and style you want. The traditional pasta dishes are the best in town, in my opinion, and well worth the price on special occasions or just out with friends. More

While visiting the Portland area, we were treated to lunch at this delightful little ristorante in Lake Oswego. We were seated in the open air/walled in patio with each table enjoying a patio umbrella. The weather was perfect. The entrees were, as far as we could tell, authenticly Italian and delicious, the waiter- recommended wine was refreshing and perfectly paired... More

We recently moved near where Riccardo's is located and had heard great things about it. We stopped by on a Thursday night and chose to sit outside. Our server was very attentive and gave me time to look over their hard to go through wine "book" to choose a bottle of wine. Choices were plentiful, but the notebook was hard... More

I've been eating at riccardos for over 20 years as it's a staple of the lake Oswego area. The lasagna is amazing, the pasta ragu is delightful, and the rest of the menu should be shredded. We are there last month and got the typical cold should from crabby old Riccardo. The server who is Italian was delightful and even... More

I have now eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. The pasta and veal dishes are excellent and always well prepared. They have an outstanding wine list and will go out their way to help you find a wine that will go well withyour food as well as your personal preferences. I do think that the food prices... More

Of all the Portland area Italian restaurants, this is the most authentic trattoria. While many Americans' idea of Italian is red checkered tablecloths and straw covered Chianti bottles of the south and Sicilian areas, replete with Dean Martin elevator music, Riccardo's Northern Italian Marches cuisine is right on. The wine list is amazing. We lived in Italy, and would have... More

What a delightful Italian restaurant with an amazing wine list. Great friendly service and the best lasagna I have ever had!! Enjoy the outdoor seating at the rear of the restaurant this summer... More

So, my husband, 6 yr old, 3 yr old, and 5 month old landed here looking for dinner after a long day of driving and shopping. When I stepped in the door, i took one look at the menu, the prices and thought - "uh - oh". This is a very nice restaurant, that didn't have the looks of a... More
