Reviews for John Riccitello Restaurant in Schenectady, NY
I had the veal cutlet with linguine and chocolate cream pie - the best! I love how fresh the sauce on the pasta tastes, while... the pie was my absolute favorite! Hope to come here again soon! Read more
My first time in Schenectady, this place has amazing reviews. It looks like is in an odd place, until you get there. Really... great atmosphere, old school New York, and the staff was more than accommodating. The food was good, 1 out of 3 was amazing, theother two were good but didn't match the reviews. I will go back because of the people and the atmosphere. I suggest you you trythis place. Enjoy. Read more
I read a review about the service being slow. I wouldn't necessarily count that as a bad thing. The food is made fresh to order.... The service is very attentive and free amount of money pay for the amount of food you get. Considering the quality of the food.There is no comparison really in the area. ???? Read more
I enjoyed everything regarding the meal. The food was well made and was delicious especially the clams casino. The limoncello... cake turned out to be homemade by the owners wife. It's that kind of old school proper place and you won't be disappointed.Bonus points to them because I went by myself and they weren't even really fazed by it despite it being 630 on a Saturday night.I've had plenty of other places make me feel uncomfortable showing up to eat by myself but this place welcomed me warmly.

Great experience at Riccitello's. The staff is very friendly and the food is exceptional. I had the Chicken Parm that I thought... was one of the best I ever had. Companion had the Ziti with marinara sauce that was pretty good. The salads were a spring mixwith tomatoes that were very fresh and very tasty. Reservations highly recommended. We got lucky because we got there rightafter they opened at 5pm and was able to get a table. Read more
Had a fantastic meal there! Everyone got something different. Chicken parm, breaded pork cutlet on garlic broccoli rabe, cheese... and spinach ravioli with vodka sauce, fra diavolo, and cavetelli with homemade sausage. For apps, we got the stuffed squashblossoms, and soup, salad, and bread. Awesome!!! Excellent sauce too! Read more
