Working in the West Island doesn't have many perks. Riccardos is one of the few perks that St. Jean has to offer. I've been going here for about 6 years and I must stay I love everything about it.
They recently renovated making the small area appear and feel larger but they haven't lost their family style touch. The waiters and waitresses treat you like family, the food is home made and cooked to order.
You can't go wrong here. My only complaint about this location is that the bread is always served warm and paired with really cold butter. You just can't do that. Room temperature butter would be a better option...but if that is your biggest complaint then I guess this place comes up on top!
