This was hands down one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! I celebrated my birthday there, and I’m still in awe of how incredible the food was. Each dish was a work of art—I’ve never seen anything like it before.
On balance, a good Italian meal. Ordered two appetizers - mussels cooked perfectly and meat was plum; octopus cooked to a point where it became too soft with no texture left. Ordered three pasta dishes: both duck tortellini and vongole wee flavorful; bucatini pomodoro was way too salty and had to be sent back to kitchen. The pastas were all bouncy and cooked perfectly. Also ordered the ribeye cap. Sou vide to medium and slightly charred on the outside. Really liked the sweet potato gnocchi. The side dish mushroom and potatoes were both good. Mushroom still had a crunch to it. Ambience and service are both good. Server didn’t give me a hard time sending back the salty pasta dish.
Why isn’t this place packed all the time? The chef beat Bobby Flay and I can clearly see why. Everything is made from scratch. I had the tasting menu on my first visit, then the short rib mezzaluna and braised octopus (beyond tasty) on my next visit. The ramp agnolotti, ribeye are phenomenal. The service is top notch. I’ve walked by this place multiple times and I wish I dined here sooner. The flavors are unlike anything I’ve tasted and IL Ritorno blows every Italian restaurant out of the water!
Some of the best food I have had in Saint Petersburg since I moved here. Chandler was amazing. He took care of us & was so knowledgeable on liquor, the cuisine and everything throughout our dining experience. Literally cannot recommend more!!!! Thank you Chandler
Had a special birthday dinner here. Food, service, and environment were wonderful! We had the beets, fish eggs, and octopus as starters...all were excellent. Main dishes were crab spaghetti, grouper, and the filet...absolutely perfect. Finally the banana French toast plus the vanilla/chocolate espresso dessert was decadent! Big thank you to Chef Dani and team for all that beautiful hard work back in the kitchen! Highly recommend and we will definitely be returning!
