My daughter made reservation for my birthday. The experience beginning at the entrance (following CDC guidelines) to the seating, drinks, music, and the food was awesome.
I will be visiting real soon. Love love love.

We visited New York last year and found this fantastic restaurant. So knowing we were visiting again it was on our list to revisit. Sometimes you think something is great and you go back and realise it wasn’t as good as you thought it was. Well all I can say is The Ricardo Steak House lived up to my expectations and even exceeded them. The service was first class. The food was first class. The ambience was first class. I cannot fault anything at all. The cocktails are also on point. Our server Ario ( sorry if I spelt it wrong) was fantastic. The manager Emily came over and asked how everything was and realising we travelled from London took time out to thank us for our custom and sent over deserts . Once again first class . 18% gratuity was added to the bill and seriously in England it’s not a tipping culture but we tip if the service is great. I gave extra because it was exceptional service. Plus a big shout out to the DJ who gave us the great music . When we return to New York we will return to The Ricardo. If you are visiting NY don’t stick to the tourist areas . Get the subway to 2nd Avenue 110th St in East Harlem you won’t be disappointed.

Friday night… the place was packed. Hostess was very friendly. We decided to wait at bar and Ordered drinks. Once at bar we decided to just eat dinner at bar. It was entertaining just to watch the chefs prepare meals We ordered baked clams , bread basket, arugula salad, plantains, filet mignon dinner with mash potatoes. It was all slamming good ! No room for dessert.

This WAS my absolute favorite restaurant. The food delicious, the host remembers who I am every time I come, and my drinks on point. Then I bragged so much and brought my fam and the waiter kept ignoring us and we had to watch him play around with the other waiters the entire time! Strike 1. I came again and after my meal the waiter said my credit card declined twice so I called my bank and they said it was never run so the Manager came to me and said “do I have everything straightened out?” I told him it was never ran and he just took my card ran it and brought it back. (No sorry, nothing) Strike 2…Now I gave it a break for 6 months and planed to go one more time solo because I’ve had a long week and wanted to treat myself, but the entire experience was a complete waist of my time. When I arrived 15 minutes before my reservation I had to wait (no problem, I’m early), but then other people started coming after me and the security was letting them in when I was clearly there first. When I was seated it took 10 minutes to even get a barcode menu. Then 10 minutes to order. My drink finally came but it was too late, I was over it! The waiter came to my table and apologized because he thought “I was waiting for someone”, but never asked me that. The table right next to me received their drinks, appetizers, and we’re almost done with their food before I even had my drink. Their the ones who said “I would just leave if I were you.” Great idea…I asked the waiter to just pack my food to go. He said ok and walked away. (No why or anything I can do or nothing). Then came back and asked did I want another drink??? No just the bill!
As much as I LOVED. Ricardo’s…I won’t be back, and I’m a Concierge…I will be sharing my experience and not recommending the restaurant.

We haven’t been to this restaurant in over 11 years. The space was booming with beautiful music and people of course conscious of the times.
We sat at the outside area that is now enclosed.
Everything was delicious. For a Sunday, unbelievable energy, a great booster. We had the

The restaurant is not your standard steakhouse but it’s a vining with great music and food.

Came to town with my brother and his wife who'd never been to the city. Hubby and I wanted to show them "flava". It was our 1st time at Ricardo's..based off of local friends recommendations. Can I say, it was absolutely perfect! Terrific food, great atmosphere, perfect sangria, great prices...old school R&B playing and everyone singing along. Everytime I visit NY from here on out, I WILL be hitting up Ricardo's!
(And the anniversary sundae they served us...with complimentary shots...was the icing on the cake!)

I have been eating at Ricardo's for many. many years and always have a great time. From birthday's to engagement events, Ricardo's has been my "go to" place for fun, great music and great food. This birthday year was one for the books! When I had issues with my reservation, they were able to accommodate last minute and showed my family and I so much love. We had so much fun that we stayed until...they closed! The hospitality and service excellence was next level and I am grateful for it.
Thank you Ricardo's!

Absolutely amazing .. We went for Sunday brunch with my son 2nd Avenue East Harlem. You have to have a reservation because the place is so popular.. My wife and I arrived before my son and was greeted at the door warmly. I had a quick conversation with the gentleman at the door and explained we are visiting from London U.K. He welcomed us like we were old friends a great start. We were taken to our table and there was a dj playing fantastic music. I explained we were waiting for our son and we were given some water. The service was on point and the drinks and food wow … absolutely amazing. Great service great food and drinks and on leaving the man who greeted us wish us a safe flight home as I told him earlier that we were leaving tomorrow. Would I recommend this restaurant 100% I would like to thank the staff for making our time memorable.

I enjoyed this restaurant. We walked in to a live dj night that set a great ambiance for our birthday celebration. The food was delicious but I wouldn’t recommend the pasta. My friend mentioned the surf and turf and lamb chops was a 10/10. The sea bass was 9/10.

Wife and I went out fir date night. Place was recommended by a coworker. Took drive up from Philly and the food did not disappoint. We got the Lamb chops and chicken marsala respectively. The marsala sauce was oh so good. Thus was definitely worth the drive and tolls 🤣! The whole vibe in the place was cool and chill. Had cocktails to go with dinner and they were also good (and reasonably priced). Had to grab a room because we were definitely not making it back home safely. Make a trip Uptown and check out Ricardo's!

Stopped by with the family for a brunch. Host Rachel was great. Fun and attentive despite the temperature being at 95 degrees. Bar has their favorites. Did not feel welcomed. Waiter was great. Knowledgeable. Will return.

Our birthday celebration dinner gets a 5 Star rating! Being in NYC was a last minute decision so we didn’t have reservations for dinner but decided to arrive early to take our chances.
We arrived at 4pm and waited until 5pm for dinner service to start. We had a lovely table outside that was toasty warm with overhead heaters. We enjoyed watching the happy people waiting for a table outside on the sidewalk dancing to the lively tunes.
We ordered empanadas for an appetizer without realizing how huge the portions were. A delicious complimentary garlic bread and marinara sauce was also provided.
My husband and I shared the Ricardos sample platter. Everything was delicious and more than enough for two people! Now I know why everyone left with doggy bags. Lots of other diners had steak and lobster/seafood platter which will be a “next time” meal.

Food, drinks , service . Very good. We had the Porterhouse for 2 @ $84. A bargain considering the price of mid-town steakhouses. My only complaint, very loud music playing.
