Ricci’s Pizzeria & Sandwich Shoppe

I’ve covered over ¼ of the items on Ricci’s menu and haven’t come across something that didn’t impress me yet. I only take out and they’re very quick at it. Never waited more then 10mins for my order.
The place is very clean and professional and they have an open kitchen which I like, (shows they have nothing to hide).
Amazing Veal Sandwich, my work ordered a few partysize pizza’s with 100 wings, all very good. Salads were all good.
(nice bean salad by the way).
I recently tried one of their cold cut prosciutto sandwiches and it was great!

went for some warm comfort food: dine in, around 6:30. ordered fried Panzarotti, wings, tortellini Alfredo. split between two people.
New faces at the order counter, trainee was nervous and trainer was more curious about her bracelet than coaching her.
(seems this place can’t hold good staff)
Food wasn’t it’s best tonight, wings were overdone, Alfredo sauce was oily, Panzarotti was empty and dry. No sauce inside!!!
Lacked customer service/​appreciation. No owner or manager visible. When tables are being cleared, the Chairs make an unGodly noise. terribly annoying.

Just ordered take out for the first time. AMAZING!
Ordered a bake panzerotti with mushrooms and green peppers. The portion was very generous. Angnolotti pasta with white clam suave was so flavorful
We will order from here again!

I’ve only ever eaten here once & I have to say the pizza isn’t too bad. The sauce has a different taste than any other pizza you can get at Pizza Hut or Pizza Pizza. Although the pizza wasn’t THAT amazing, my friend got the pepperoni panzerotti & I thought that tasted better than the actual pizza! & that sauce though! Lol omg amazing, & they don’t skimp you on it ether.
The environment was really laid back & welcoming, we were quick to be served & the menu is super simplistic. I wish Ricci’s wasn’t so far! But if I’m ever in the area again I’ll definitely stop by

This place is close to where I work. I had a chance to grab a bite in the evening one day. I ordered the Baked Cheese Panzerotti to go.
Well, it was only the second time I had a panzerotti in my life. But this was the best and would be my standatd to rate other panzerottis.
It was perfectly baked, tasted very good. The sauce (maybe it was marinara) they serve with it is to die for, perfectly seasoned and wasn’t too acidic.
But the sad part was as I was eating it holding it in my hands, the cheese popped out from the other end. Maybe you’re not supposed to eat it that way.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

I recently started to order food here and in the 4 times I’ve been there I haven’t been disappointed, very well managed and organized. Food is great and we’ll priced, definitely to be added to the list of take out restaurants in the rotation

My bf and I split the panzorotti, it was enough for the two of us!!! Definitely recommend this place

Best veal sandwich in the world. Panzerottos are snaking and huge. Pizza is awesome as we’ll. Love how they expanded the sitting are for eating
The cashiers are always grumpy so that tells me the boss doesn’t treat his staff right.

Ricci’s is a huge Italian restaurant at the Langstaff Centre. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is how red everything is – the lamp shades, the chairs, the sauce. I came here on a weekday around 1pm and the place was packed. It was difficult to find a place to sit, which only proves how popular this place is, but is a good indication that the food is also good.
After reading the other review, I had to order the baked panzerotti, which is essentially a giant calzone. I ordered the panzerotti with pepperoni and a small side of sauce. Once you place your order, you’ll receive a pager and the staff will bring over your food when your pager goes off. Since it was busy here, it took a long time to receive my food, but the wait was worth it.
Growing up in the Bronx, I frequently purchased calzones at the local pizza shop, but it was definitely not the same as what I received at Ricci’s. The panzerotti was huge! I was worried that I would not be able to finish eating it, but it was so delicious that the worry went away quickly. The panzerotti was amazing right out of the oven. The mozzarella cheese was perfectly melted and the sauce and pepperoni were tasty. The bread was perfectly soft. It’s essentially a heart-​attack wrapped inside beautifully soft bread.
The side sauce was unnecessary. The panzerotti by itself was tasty and moist enough. But if you do end up getting a side sauce, the small is sufficient.

Disappointing. With good reviews and coming recommended from a friend, I had high expectations for Ricci’s even though I am always cautious about Italian food (I love Italian food but bad Italian food is very very common.)
I ordered the gnocchi and upgraded the sauce to their pescatore (seafood) sauce for $ 3 extra. I knew this price meant the «shrimp, calamari, and clams» offered wouldn’t be plentiful but I did not expect to find precisely one mini shrimp in my dish. The calamari also seemed to be of suspect quality.
The tomato sauce itself was just not good. It wasn’t terrible but I’d expect better from an Italian joint in Woodbridge. It seemed Canadianized.
Also, once I ordered it took over 15 minutes for my dish to arrive. This would be acceptable in a restaurant but with the set up they had, I expected a quicker lunch. In fact, I had to pack most of my dish to go because I had to get back to work.
The décor was nice and as I saw panzerottis pass by I thought to myself that I definitely ordered the wrong thing. Part of me wants to give them another chance to try the panzo but another part says there’s tons of Italian joints in Woodbridge so why go back to one that’s disappointed you before?

What can I say about Ricci’s, I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and it’s all really good.
Get a fried panzo with meat sauce and you’ll be in heaven.
The slices are addictive, I ran across the road when I was at work to grab a slice and right when I finished I ran back and grabbed another slice.

Veal sandwich wasnt up to my expectation. Slightly bland and lacking depth. The tomato sauce on it was too gwneric.
Will have to try the other sandwiches next week.

I finally tried this place pretty recently! It’s funny because I used to work nearby for 2 years and never managed to step in but I’m glad I did.
The way it works is you go in, order and pay and then the food is brought to your table. The prices were very reasonable and the staff were super friendly!
The portions were huge and my boyfriend and I both really enjoyed our meals. I got a veal sandwich and he got tortellini with white clam sauce. Both unreal! (and I don’t even like clam!)
Will definitely return, I need to try their pizza next! Heard great things

ordered a panzerotti. added pepperoni, italian sausage and mushrooms.
the panzerotti cost $ 12.43.
honestly. one of the best, if not the best panzerotti i’ve had thus far. lots of cheese though. It was really heavy and i was amazed i was even able to finish it.
off topic side note. there were 3 cashiers. a blonde, brunette, and red head. sounds like the beginning of a joke right? seriously though. all 3. gorgeous.
back on topic. you can get your panzerotti baked or fried, i had mine baked because it’s healthier that way (LOL).
the cheese was really really stringy, the panzerotti was stuffed. and it was well worth the money i spent on this bad boy of a food baby.
I am currently back at my desk at work and about to fall into food coma. im only working in this location for the day so it’s really out of my way, but realistically i know i’m going to have a craving for this in the future and have to come all the way here out of my way to taste this heart clogging goodness again.
¹⁰⁄₁₀ would recommend.

Visited Ricci’s a few weeks ago before heading to see a movie. Atmosphere was welcoming, staff was friendly. Was given a buzzer to alert me when food was ready. I assumed I’d have to go up and grab it (Even though I was staying in to eat) but no — server brought it over with a smile.
Deep fried Panzo was huge and delicious. the RICE BALL. I’m still thinking about it. Awesome.
I will definitely visit again.

I love love love Ricci’s. Maybe it’s because they spell my name right, or because they make substitutions with zero hassle, or maybe it’s because their panzos are the size of an infant, who knows! All I know is I LOVE Ricci’s.
In my past experiences I’ve ordered the asiago + prosciutto sandwich, rice balls and baked panzarotti. All of them have been amazing. Does it even matter what I write? With a review like Kris U’s, you can’t say no to dining here.
Long story made incredibly short, come here and experience Ricci’s. You’ll love it.

I grew up in Malton and at the age of 7, I used to grab a slice of Pizza at Ricci’s almost every day after school for years. Then sadly, one day, they were no more.
I hadn’t thought about it until recently when I was making pizza at home, and decided to add some fennel to it, which Ricci’s slices always had a hint of. i think it was in the pepperoni. Anyways, I decided to google Ricci’s Pizza just for the hell of it and was shocked to see that they were actually still in business! I thought they just closed up shop, but in actuality they just moved.
So, I finally made my way over to Vaughn, and checked it out. It’s definitely different then the little tiny store they had way back when in the strip mall. They have a large seating area, TV, and 3 registers.
I grabbed 2 pepperoni slices during my visit, and have to say that the pizza is as good as I remember it. It was like taking step back into my childhood. It didn’t have that hint of fennel like I remember though. I guess they have different pepperoni now, but the rest is still how I remember it, down to the foil wrap they put the pizza in.
I was happy to see that the place was full of people, which means that they will be around for many more years, so that I can grab another slice whenever I’m in the area. If they decide to open up a location downtown, that would truly be amazing!

Eveything tastes better when deep fried?!
Double Rice Balls with Tomato Sauce ($ 7.95) and Panzerotti ($ 8) with Tomato Sauce ($ 1)
Deep Fried goodness with cheese and sauce… Carb attack.
Those are the 2 things I highly recommend getting at Ricci’s.
Enjoy and don’t think about calories and fat content. You won’t regret that!

I ordered a baked Panzerotti with Italian sausage and green olive. I like my food salty. This is my first Panzerotti, so I have no reference to compare it against. I can attest that it was filled with delicious tomato sauce and a thick layer of cheese. It was very flavourful. It was extremely filling for one person, and I won’t be surprised if two ladies can share one as a meal.
Maybe because it was baked, the cheese didn’t melted as much as the cheese in a fried Panzerotti that a fellow Unilocaler ordered. I couldn’t play that «stretch the cheese into as long a string as possible» game, but I saw someone play it with a fried Panzerotti. Junk information just in case you want to stretch the cheese into a string.

Came here on a Thursday evening at 7pm with 9 other fellow Unilocalers to try their famous panzerotti and their pizzas.
I ordered the fried panzerotti ($ 8) with basic cheese and tomato sauce with a meat sauce on the side for dipping. We also tried the baked version but if it is your first time, go for the fried. Much tastier! And make sure you get the sauce on the side for dipping. It is imperative! I would say the panzerotti stole the show. It… was…awesome. So much cheesy goodness… mmmm…
Also ordered a small pizza again with basic cheese and sauce ($ 10.50). Lots of toppings to choose from but I had hoped they would have basil. You can order thin crust if you want which is a nice option. I just went with the standard and was very pleased. Delicious pizza! There was a little inconsistency with the crust when we tried different pizzas that were ordered among us but all in all a great experience and I would go back!
