Went for lunch with my daughter. She had the spaghetti and meatballs and love it. I had Stromboli and got a Rico special sub for lunch the next day. The Stromboli was the best Stromboli that I have ever had and I have had Stromboli from a lot of pizza places in Central, west coast of Florida, the Rico special which is pretty much an Italian sub was the second best I have ever had and I have tried a lot of them from central to West coast of Florida. It has to be one of the best pizzerias I have been to would suggest it to everyone.

Disappointed with the calamari and tiramisu. I got takeout and went back to my hotel which is 4 minutes away. The calamari was still cold and I waited at the restaurant an extra 10 minutes for it. The tiramisu was frozen and freezer burnt. The pizza was alright but barely had sauce not worth over $50 for the entire order. Edit: found a hair on the pizza as well

Calzone was very large (see picture) and stuffed. Waitresses were polite, the real thrill was how happy the two male chefs were. They were having a good time making food, smiling. You could tell it was more than just a job to them.

Nothing I hate worst than an entitled disrespectful know it all young cashier. Even if the pizza is good, her attitude with support from the rest of the staff makes it a bad experience. I only wanted pep and sausage, she wanted to charge for a meat Pizza. So when I asked for just a cheese and add 2 toppings it cut the price by 7 dollars. Here comes the attitude. Needless to say I was not leaving her a tip for a to go pizza. Therefore, she watched me wait on the to go pizza as well as the rest of the staff and didn’t say anything. So 40 min later, my son went to the counter to find it just sitting. We were scared to eat it! Instead, I decided to review.

Excellent Chicken Parm sub. Would have loved to try the pizza as well. Went with a work group and everyone enjoyed it. Would certainly return if ever back in the area!

Pizza was good. Got 1 slice of white and my order was around closing time and tbh they should not have sold me the slice, it was old and not good. I had 2 slices of white pizza from the Ringling location a week or so ago and it was amazing!! And I don’t usually like white pizza. I will try ricos again, order earlier in the day and probably go to the Ringling location, even though that area is ridiculous when trying to do take out.

First time, was drawn in because of the gluten pizza crust. It was amazing, it was delicious. Family also ordered wings, they were very good and husband got spicy chicken sub with jalapeños and peppers. He said it was great! The ravioli was very good also! All our items were hot and extremely fresh. Congratulations to your cooks! They show pride when they are working so hard to provide a good quality entree to customers. Keep your head up! Earned my loyalty. Kudos to your staff!

I left this comment for Google+ : “don’t try to advertise or serve or offer pizza with ants or termites while seriously standing there trying to sell me terrible food and your female had a rude attitude tone when I was just asking a question because I’ve never been here before” i will never come back this place should be shutdown by the health department for pest control on their food display, what a shame on your restaurant. Ps the owner said the ants or termites are ridiculous??? How about you look at the video I posted… its all the proof you need to open your eyes, I should report you to the health department for being so careless.

we waited 45 min. We were the only customers, the bread was disgusting, submerged in oil, all the dishes were horrible. the same sauce taken from a can for all the dishes. There were 8 people on the staff and it was not understood how there was such a lousy service. I could only rescue the attention of the waiter that was acceptable. I think they use very low quality products.

Fantastic and friendly service from the beautiful young woman Nalan makes up for the Jersey vibe the owners put out there. (that was supposed to be funny but it fell flat lol – everyone is very nice). Good food plenty of room and a pool table. Great spot to eat in or sit outside on the picnic table. Take out or use your favorite delivery service as well.
