About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
For three decades the name Riccio has been synonymous with fine dining in the desert. Richard and Patricia Riccio set the bar for outstanding Italian cuisine 40 years ago when they opened the original Riccio’s in uptown Palm Springs. Two of their sons, eager to carry on the family tradition, last spring unveiled Riccio’s Steak and Seafood with a new menu concept in a higher profile location downtown. Service and personal attention have been the Riccio’s hallmark and they pledge to continue this tradition.

For the casual diner, Riccio’s offers a relaxed patio presentation for watching downtown Palm Springs unfold while sampling their intriguing, seasonally changing menu. Riccio’s bar faces lively Palm Canyon Drive, and picture windows frame a sculptural fountain.

The desert's top steak and seafood restaurant. Come taste why over 40 years of customers keep coming back to this downtown landmark.

    Very comfortable and welcoming restaurant. Had not visited for many years. The service staff takes care of your needs and is very attentive. The Paella was good not great. Too saucy, not enough Smokey sausage. The scampi again good not great. good portion however like my scampi drunken in garlic butter. This was too dry presented on the plate. The menu is very inviting and so we will go back to sample other items.

    I had the cioppino and my dining companion had chicken marsala. They were both delicious as were the salads beforehand. The martinis were also excellent. Our server Jaime (sp?) knows her job and does it well.  Also the staff took care of details such as keeping our water glasses, full asking if we wanted more bread, which with the olive oil it is served with is delicious. We will be back to Riccios.

    The Greek salad with salmon was great as was the Caesar salad. The chicken marsala was a bit disappointing.

    My brother-in-law got the fillet and said it was amazing! My sister got the scallops, and I got the fish of the day, halibut, and they were excellent. We had a great waitress and the entire staff was so friendly.  very well priced for the quality of the food.

    Lobster was cold, meat was super dry and chewy. Pasta sauce was extremely watery.
