We went to Riccelli's to eat. It's this old Italian restaurant that's been around since the 50's I believe. The food's hit or miss, the waitstaff is subpar and it's like being in a dinner theater and the theater is watching the employees. LOL
We love it anymore but we boycotted it for 25 years. No crap, it was that bad.
We had onion rings, soup, bread, a small plate of spaghetti and then our main dish and a side. All for 60.00 plus I had 2 margaritas and Jeff had 2 beers. We even had leftovers for the dogs and cats. Jeff had a New York strip and I had calves liver and onions. We ROLL out of that place every time.
Reviews are all over the place and there's never anyone under 30 years old in the place and usually it's people even older than me and Jeff who are early 50's.

If you go on a Friday or Saturday it's 1 1/2 hours before you get your food (the main course) and don't expect any beverage refills either. LOL It takes 20 minutes for them to even take your order. Like I said, it's Dinner Theater!! What a hoot!!!
