    "Grazie Maria"

    Thank you Maria for deciding to open your own restaurant. My review is based on two visits to Ria's and both were great experiences.

    My first visit I had one of the most incredible soups I've ever tasted. It was a Seafood Fagioli.
    Clams, mussels, salmon, monkfish, and cannelini beans in a light flavorful cream broth.
    I also had an appetizer for lunch. The Sausage, Potatoes, and Italian Long Hot Peppers.
    The italian sausage was delicious, the potatoes were nicely browned, and the skin of the peppers was slightly blistered covering the tender hot spicy peppers.
    The dish was garnished with a lemon wedge that I squeezed on everything which brightened all the flavors of the dish.

    New Years Eve, I suggested to my wife that we have dinner at Ria's and it was another delicious meal.
    My wife began with the Fried Mozzerella. It was fried to a crispy golden brown and served with a very delicious marinara.
    She also ordered the Baked Stuffed Shrimp because she liked that they prepared it with a Ritz cracker, butter, and sherry wine stuffing.
    But she was a little disappointed because she felt they went a little heavy on the sherry wine.
    She said she'll have a pasta dish next time.
    I began with a Baccala, Escarole and Bean soup. Another very good soup.
    I also had the Zuppa Di Pesce for dinner.
    Shrimp, clams, mussels, and calamari served with a fra diavolo sauce over linguine.
    My dish was outstanding.
    Ria's is fortunate to have Chef Val creating these delicious dishes.

    It was a nice surprise the first time I walked in Ria's to be greeted by the bar manager, Ryan.
    My wife and I met Ryan at another restaurant last year. I feel that every restaurant should have at least one Ryan. Lol
    He's so upbeat and friendly that you want to sit at his bar to enjoy your dinner, a few cocktails, and great conversations with him.
    I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Maria Gagliardi. She's friendly, personable, and I heard from other customers that her pizza is very good. I'll have to try it next time.

    Ria's Restaurant doesn't look anything like the previous restaurants that were in this space.
    The space was completely remodeled both inside and out and it looks beautiful.
    The copper bar top is stunning and the sliding barn doors that separate the dining rooms are very nice.

    I'd like to wish the entire staff at Ria's the
    Best of Luck. I believe that Ria's will be here for many years to come.
