We had an absolutely amazing dining experience at Radici from start to finish! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every aspect of the meal exceeded our expectations. We started with drinks and appetizers, which were perfectly crafted. The seafood salad was a standout – fresh, flavorful, and an absolute must-try. For our main courses, we indulged in the Osso Buco, Braised Rabbit, and Eggplant Involtini. Each dish was perfectly prepared, bursting with flavor, and truly unforgettable. We’re so glad we saved room for dessert because the olive oil cake was one of the most unique and delightful treats we’ve ever had. The service was exceptional – our servers were attentive, the management checked in to ensure we were enjoying ourselves, and the wine sommelier’s expertise added a special touch to our meal. Radici has earned a spot as one of our favorite Italian restaurants, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!
