Reviews for Ricci's Italian Sausage in McKees Rocks, PA
If you are looking for authentic Italian food this is a great choice! Set up like a deli inside with a food case out front and... some back in the kitchen. Mostly a take out place. I have had authentic Italian food since I was a teenager and I have to tellyou, this is the real deal! I have ordered meatballs, pasta fagioli, sausage roll, lasagna, a hot sausage sandwich and a coupleother things. All have been excellent! Red sauce is very tasty and has a nice well balanced flavor. Also, the people that workthere are also very nice. Definitely a bit off the usual Pittsburgher track out in Kennedy township. Not that far and worthwhile ride if you are looking for real Italian food! I recently gave a sample care package to my Italian lady friend and shetexted me it was delicious! Enough confirmation for me! Highly recommended if you want great genuine Italian food to take home.We go here and pick up almost every week! Read more
I stopped into Ricc's for the first time today and ordered 2 hot sausage sandwiches with cheese. The sandwiches were full of... flavor and the peppers and onions were very tasty. I have to say that the chefs at Ricci's know what they are talking about whenwe start talking about sausage peppers and onions. I will be returning and picking up some more sandwiches my next go around.Ricci's is one of my new favorite restaurants. Hurry and call and pick up something good to see eat!!???? Read more
I'm picky about my hot sausage. Most hot sausage doesn't have the texture I'm looking for. It's usually ground too fine and... their are no fennel seeds etc. Moreover, much of the hot sausage around here is not hot (spicy) at all. I found myself in theneighborhood of Ricci's Italian Sausage, a mom 'n pop store selling homemade everything (just check their website). So I took agamble and stopped in. The family/workers were very polite. They have their roots in Abruzzo. We spoke about their sausagemaking process. I ordered two HS sandwiches and 2lb's of the rope HS. I made a joke about "opening up a store in the South Hillswhere I live?" They informed me that their sausage and other products are available in the South Hills; Pasta Too in South Parkuses their sausage and Cibrone Bakery in Castle Shannon sells their products and has hot sausage sandwiches every Thursday forlunch! At any rate, I get home, put the rope HS in freezer and then begin to eat the sandwich. I was supremely impressed. Ifinally found the quality and taste I prefer. I savored my lunch and as I did so, for a fleeting second I thought I wasin...Abruzzo. AAA+++ Read more
Everything I?ve gotten here is delicious - meatball sandwiches, hot sausage, stuffed peppers, lasagna, Mac and cheese, sausage... roll? it?s all amazing! I love the local and family-owned aspect of it too. I have learned from experience that they prefer youorder ahead of time if getting a decent amount of meatballs (more than 6 or so), but totally understandable and very much worthit! Read more
I have been coming here for a while at least once a week for lunch and other items. The ladies are always nice and helpful even... when busy. Today I was giving my order of cold and hot items and I apparently was taking longer then expected because all of asudden a man who I think is the owner.. Yells at me! There wasn't even anyone else in the store or in line. I couldn't' believeit, if they already didn't have my items packed I would have walked out. Today was the last day I will ever be there again. Igave 2 stars because I do like the food. I can not give my money to people who have no respect for customers, So disappointed. A grown man yelling at a woman over taking to long to pick out her purchases.. Crazy! Read more
Hot sausage has great flavor and you get 20 pieces out of a 5 lb. box
The stuffed peppers will change your life. Go out of your way for Ricci's sausage. Grab a bite there if you want, but most... certainly take some home to share with friends and family. Read more
The ONLY PLACE you should ever get your hot sausage from! A little known secret is that they have already cooked hot sausage... ready for you! A pan of 12, with fresh shredded cheese and fresh sausage rolls for $40! Plenty of other hot food to choose fromas well! Read more
