    I only get the breaded steak with jalapenos. I tried delivery once and they messed up the order and it was not hot.

    The breaded steak is awesome! You just got to buy it in person.

    This was a nightmare. I was born and raised in Bridgeport. The restaurant on 26th has gone down alot. Service is bad and the workers answering the phone are very rude. It took them 2 hours to bring me my order. I was afraid to cancel. They might come looking for me.

    Please learn from my mistakes, the atmosphere is horrible, the employees are rude, and their hygeine is disgusting. This almost seems to be the standard at all of their locations though, maybe this is a part of their training? The worst part about it is the food is way too greasy and almost always cold. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!!!!

    It's been awhile since I visited the place, but I wanted to give it another shot. Food has gotten much better! The crabby, rude woman that handles the pizza area hasn't been there much. Woo Hoo! The other employees look better and are smiling and saying thank you. So THANK YOU RICOBENES! It was a pleasure eating there again.

    I so really enjoy the food. Except the fries. They are served very greasy and mostly cold. Why do the employees look so unhappy? I especially love the pizza!! But the women in that area are so rude! Maybe if they had to live on tips as others do, they would smile and say thank you. Maybe I need to just tell my family and friends to eat at Connies.

    Never place a large order for delivery.It takes forever up to two hours to get,more than likely they forget to give you your full order.Never expect napkins forks or anything to help enjoy your WARM food.

    Love the Pizza and Fries, I'm craving thier pizza on a regular basis. Do they deliver to DC ? They'd have at least one customer on a regular basis. Big Fan Steven

    RICOBENE'S HAS BEEN SERVING GREAT FOOD SINCE THE 40S. IT IS NOT A STAMPED OUT FRANCHISE. EVERYTHING IS FRESH ESPECIALLY THOSE AWESOME FRIES!! I LOVE THE BREADED STEAK...A CHICAGO ONLY EXPERIENCE. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, GO THERE FOR BEADED STEAK AND FRIES. PICK A SLICE OF PIZZA DEEPDISH SPINACH OR THIN SAUSAGE. YOULL THANK ME.

    Have enjoyed Ricobene's cuisine all my life. First came to Ricobene's when it was a little storefront stand on 26th St. Spinach & Mushroom Deep Dish Pizza and Italian Ice are my favorites!

    Have been a long time patron or Ricobene's on 26th Street as well as most of there other locations. Haven't tried Darien Yet. What use to be a wonderful quality food expierience in no more. Save your money. Just had the grilled Chicken sandwich on 26th and the chicken was smashed or pounded so thin it was the joke of our table of 5. On Pulaski, Downtown and Bollingbrook, the food can be good one day and terrible the next. This is especially true of the pizza. They only need to go to their competitors such as Portillo's or Barnelly's to see consistancy and good food. The staff is or lack there of is almost nonexsistant. A skeleton crew is what you'll find at all stores with the front counter cashier answering phones, taking walk-up orders, handing out food and moping floors while 6 or 7 people stand around waiting to order or get their food. Save your money!
