Great Italian restaurant with a good mix of options from pizzas to pasta and other entrees.The short rib alfredo was delicious, with creamy sauce and the meat was very tender.I tried the butter pecan old fashioned which was very sweet at times, but spot on for flavor profile.They have a generous dessert for birthdays as well.I do have to dock a point or two for slow service. We asked the host for a high chair and they never came back. We had to wait a few minutes for a server to come and then ask them for one. It also took a while to finally get the check at the end.

Came here with 12 other locals to have dinner on a Friday night. We had reservations and were seated immediately. Our server, Ella took drink orders and off she went to accommodate our large group in addition to handy to or three other tables. After serving drinks she gave us a few minutes to peruse the menu and the reported to our tables to the orders and try to put together couples spread across three tables with females on one end and males on the other. It was busy all get out and wait times were a bit long with three couples ordering pizza with others ordering entrees. Pizza took a lot longer and those people waited long after others had almost completed their meals. Patience was there and all of the parties smiles were gleaming after consuming their food. As I mentioned, Ella was a great server and exceeded expectations based upon the crowd in the restaurant

This is a very good pizza, the thin cracker crust style favored locally. One of the few places that offers anchovies (the least ordered pizza topping choice but my fav) and it suffers a little from its own popularity. Hardly ever do I come here and not have a wait. It's a nice place to eat so I'd rather eat here than take the pizza to go. I've heard their other dishes are good, but I guess I'll never know because the pizza is so good. Every time I've been in here all the tables around me are eating pizza. Service is consistently good, cocktails are mixed well by bartenders who are well trained (not as common as it should be in the Milwaukee area), I am yet to leave here without being happy and fully satisfied.

Ordered pizza for pickup on a saturday night and only had to wait 20 minutes before it was ready. Fast and easy to pick up and the pizza itself was hot and fresh.The prosciutto and arugula pizza was very good. The combination with the balsamic reduction was fantastic. The crust is thin and crisp- almost cracker like. There were a few squares around the edges that didnt have any toppings on them and the crust itself is a bit flavorless without anything on it.It does run on the pricier side but I think it is worth it to tey the signature toppings

Do you see that Harvest pizza? I must say, it's simply my most favorite pizza in the world. Seriously, I have yet to find a pizza that tastes better than this one.This pizza comes out after Hay Days and has the perfect amount of deliciousness. But what does it contain? Why is it a big deal? * applewood smoked bacon* caramelized onions* apples* gouda, mozzarella, cheddar cheese blend* topped with a balsamic reductionThey're only doing 13" for 2023, which means they'll get me back here multiple times to have more of this. I normally get a huge 17", but not this year, unfortunately. Regardless, Ricardo's remains a favorite of mine and probably always will be.Service is great and friendly, and they have more than pizza if you're interested.Ricardo's is a bit cozy and gets a nice buzz going with the audience they pull in.Indoor, outdoor, bar and tabletop seating add to the many options to choose from when you stop in.

This is definitely a great place to get a wonderful pizza or other Italian dishes. Service is fantastic. This is a family owned business that definitely understands the value of customer service. The food is absolutely delicious and there's plenty of seating.

Buzzy local Italian joint in the heart of downtown Greendale. Don't let the Pizza in the name fool you: While Ricardo's serves up some amazing thin crust pies, they have a long menu of incredible dishes (wings, burgers, pasta, etc) and I've yet to find anything that hasn't been superb over the many visits I've made to this longtime Greendale gem. Always, and I mean always start your meal off with the cheese bread. You'll thank me later.They have some of the best wings - jumbo size and lightly breaded and they come with different sauce options. If you are there on Friday you can't go wrong with their fish fry: flavorful and big cod fillets accompanied by some of the best potato pancakes this side of the Mississippi. The pizza speaks for itself: tons of options and an obvious choice when dining here. Highly recommend the Proscuitto and Arugula or the Carnivore. Honestly though you can't go wrong with any of their pies.When the weather cooperates, take advantage of the nice patio out front surrounded by a cute fountain. Ricardo's is a place where you feel like home. Comfy and relaxed, but always packed, and for good reason. If you come on a weekend be prepared to wait, but trust me, it's well worth it!

Great fish fry! I've been going to Ricardo's for the last 26 years & always love the hospitality & great food. This review is for the breaded Perch ($18) & the breaded Cod ($15) dinners to go. When I got home I opened up the containers and was happy to see that there is plenty of fish and fries to go with each dinner. I read reviews of other restaurants and complaints to how the fish is usually small like fish sticks. That's not the case with Ricardo's. The fish is very well portioned & worth the money. On a side note, the pizza here is amazing & hasn't changed in the last 26 years I've been enjoying it. I recommend the Hawaiian pizza. Cheers to Ricardo's!

I've been going to Ricardo's since I was 10 years old and that is many years. We were there last night and I think the pizza crust changed. It was always thin and cracker crispy. Last night it was crispy but a little thicker. Still good but curious why they changed. A nice place to eat at when you are in Greendale Wisconsin.

Once a gem in Greendale, Ricardo's Pizza has unfortunately transformed into a disappointing experience. While the staff may be friendly, frequent turnover has led to inconsistent food quality that raises significant concerns. Serious issues have been encountered, such as finding hair and plastic in meals, which call hygiene and safety into question. Many dishes have arrived incomplete or improperly cooked--some undercooked, while others are burnt beyond recognition.Even more troubling is the management's rude and dismissive attitude when concerns are raised. Instead of addressing complaints with respect and professionalism, there seems to be a tendency to make light of the issues and deflect blame. For a restaurant that charges premium prices, these problems are simply unacceptable.For these reasons, I can no longer recommend Ricardo's Pizza Greendale as I once did. It's best to look elsewhere, as there are certainly better options that prioritize quality, accuracy, and customer care.
