Ricciardo's Ristorante - DUNCRAIG

My friend and I went to the restaurant for a catch up lunch. They had on offer $20 for a 2 course meal and a glass of wine. The choice of meal 1st course was either fish and chips or roast beef, dessert was about 3 choice and the wine was white or red.We both chose Fish and Chips. The wait was minimal, the fish and chips were beautiful. Freshly cooked, great chips, salad with home made mint salad dressing and also a sweet and sour dressing too. Excellent.Dessert I chose Chocolate mousse - superb - told the chef better than the Crown Casino, my friend had the Crème Bruelle again excellent.White wine was very good too. You got a full glass not half a glass, should you want a 2nd glass it would cost $5 which is normal.We finished off with a beautiful coffee.All in all we had a lovely time. The restaurant is decked out very pleasing, they had a fire which he put on for us, lovely outside area should you wish to go outside. It is sheltered with a big wall. Seeing it wasn't a very nice day we stayed inside.As the entrance is down a slope might cause some difficulty for elderly people who have trouble walking. The Restaurant owner is discussing with the Shopping Centre owners if something can be done to rectify this. Make an entrance opposite the Liquor store. Many people are supporting him in this.We had a very special lunch, beautifully cooked, glass of wine and all for the price of $20.Also has a children play area. Very child friendly we would say.The staff were very pleasant and helpful.We did have a look at the menu and it certainly isn't over price.We would certainly recommend it to people in Duncraig.

Save your money and stay at home! Bad service no atmosphere and tiny overpriced portions with way too much salt . Was a birthday dinner so very disappointing ???? Is there actually a chef cooking this food?

We originally went to Ricciardo's for a cup of coffee but after perusing the menu we decided to have lunch as well. We sat out the back at a wooden table under dappled shade surrounded by lots of pot plants and garden knickknacks that you could purchase from the restaurant.Our meals were utterly delectable. Starting with Garlic bread and progressing through to my normal steak dish and my wife had a chicken dish. This was followed up by sweets and a n affogato coffee.The service was exemplary - attentive to our needs and well spaced arrival of our choice of dishes.We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will return. We left our little warm nook in the garden thoroughly satisfied with some pot plants to take home.

Very enjoyable dinner. We had a tasting plate for two and it was incredibly tasty. My partner had shanks and I had veal, very delicious. The staff were exceptional. I asked for a calamari take away for my son and he loved it. I only live walking distance from this restaurant - what a surprise I'll be back.

Saw 2016 out with food there, looking forward to 2017, truly a gem, mussels and prawns very good, veal was juicy also, good parking a bit hairy, but all in all, very good
