Lil' Ricci's NY Pizza & Pasta - Parker — Restaurant in Parker

My family and I come here every so often. We switch between different items but often get the Cali Pasta with chicken. When it’s good, it’s delicious, the yo-yo sauce is delicious, and the breaded chicken is a nice addition.

My problem is that more than half the time we’ve ordered this dish, the broccoli in the dish is either so mushy it’s inedible (like tonight’s take out we just got) or it’s clearly gone bad and starting to rot, with visible mushy/brown spots. I also had some browning and inedible lettuce in a salad I got once. The veggies here need to be checked and discarded more often, as this has probably been the case at least 75% of the time we’ve gotten a dish with veggies there. I love the cali pasta when the broccoli is still fresh and well cooked, which makes me keep ordering it in hopes it’ll be one of those times. I don’t think I’ll be ordering it again for awhile after tonight, as I’m tired of having to discard a significant portion of my meal or seeing a clearly brown vegetable in my meal.

I hope this catches the attention of the owners/management so they can attend to this, as this has been a problem for the 2-3 years we’ve been going there semi-regularly. We like the ambience and the employees, and I wish the food was...

The first time I went to Lil Ricci's I struck gold. We got the Ricci's combo made white. It was really good. The boyfriend was ready to go back the next night and that's always a good sign. The garlic knots are yummy too. After going back every couple months over the last year we always got the exact same thing and then went home in a delicious white pizza coma. A couple weeks ago we decided to try some of their pasta and we were both really disappointed. It tasted OK at best. We learned our lesson and will go back to our delicious white pizza from now on.

The service is always just OK. I wont speculate but the waitstaff is pretty much only young pretty girls who do their job but I have yet to have any really go above and beyond in any way. The patio is nice but the inside is also very comfortable, its dark and chilly in the summer and has tons of TVs on the wall to distract my boyfriend from having a conversation with me. It is a bit expensive for pizza. It is not the kind of place to go if you are buying pizza for a big group of people or if you just want casual pizza. If you want delicious pizza this...

1//12 Update: decided to try them out again. Unfortunately the food was mediocre and the only had one waitress on duty. I did not get a refill and she was not efficient. Not that I’m blaming her, they really need to have more staff durning the weekday.

Update…I’m a regular. I decided to 1/2 an order of wings and a salad. Went to the website and it offered online ordering. So, I ordered my food. Says it will take about 45-48 min. Went to pick up my order and they couldn’t find it. Said they didn’t have it, so must have ordered it at another location. I told them no, it says right here this is the location. I show them my receipt. After some scrambling, they finally find it and they had to make my order. Super inconvenient because it made me late for work. They gave me my food, they said they threw in some extra wings. Got home…I had to pick the bad lettuce pieces out of my salad and the celery was thrown in with the wings…which basically cooked them. They were completely limp. Not a...
