Classy, unpretentious and so undeniably good at what they do, the Riccardo Trattoria is like a page out of Italy with their impeccable cuisine. With chef and owner Riccardo Michi growing up in his family's restaurant in Milan and his many years of experience, it's no wonder that this restaurant is as popular as it is.

Adventurous eaters should definitely try an order of the restaurant's tripe Florentine, but for those who want to dig into Italian classics, an order of their veal honeycomb with rosemary-flecked focaccia is absolute heaven. Other dishes that merit a taste include the homemade veal-stuffed ravioli, the risotto of the day, and the savory short ribs. Don't forget to grab some of their tangerine sorbet for a sweet and tangy finish.
