Café Ricardo comes across as a bright, modern yet intimate spot where the service is consistently attentive and accommodating, especially for allergies and family gatherings; the food earns frequent praise for its precision and flavor, with brunch standouts like the salmon waffle and croque Madame, along with tasty sandwiches, fresh salads, and a dessert lineup that includes matcha pistachio cookies, and the chia pudding with strawberry and rhubarb; the menu changes regularly and generally delivers high quality, though a few reviews note prices are steep and portions can be small for the cost; the atmosphere, particularly on the terrace, is described as lively yet pleasant, and nearby parking makes visits convenient, with many guests citing easy returns to try more dishes or to celebrate occasions; the experience is consistently described as friendly, professional, and worth visiting again.
I took my mother for her 84th birthday. We both enjoyed our lunch very much & the dessert was memorable. Love the tea cups. Nice touch. The service was excellent, attentive but not overly hovering. This is the 2nd time I have enjoyed a lunch at Cafe Ricardo & it won't be the last.
Très bon lunch d'affaire sur la terrasse servi par une serveuse au beau sourire
Le seul hic, c'est le bruit des camions de livraisons du IGA sur la rue Arran ;)
C'est toujours une belle expérience d'aller luncher chez Ricardo. C'est sympathique, les plats sont succulents & très bien présentés, le service est professionnel & attentif. & les prix sont très raisonnables.
Lorsqu'on se présente au Café Ricardo nous nous attendons de nous régaler. Notre lunch a répondu en tout point à nos attentes, de plus j'ai été grandement charmé par le service à la clientèle de haut niveau, autant à la boutique qu'au café, avec le personnel attentionné & courtois. Il dépasse largement le service que nous recevons malheureusement dans d'autres cafés/boutiques. Merci à toute l'équipe.
Ce n'est pas le décor ,ni l'espace....mais la gentillesse,la politesse du personnel,le menu est simple mais intéressant,différent & surtout délicieux,le choix des vins est minime mais les prix sont très honnêtes .Pour un lunch on ne peut demander mieux.....délicieux potage,je recommande le tartare de saumon il est divin

J'ai grandement apprécié ma 1re visite au Café Ricardo. Beau, bon & un peu dispendieux mais on a bien le droit de se gâter un peu de temps en temps. Cependant, quand j'ai réservé, on m'indiquait seulement 13h30 comme possibilité alors qu'il y a avait plusieurs tables vides tout le temps qu'on a lunché.
It was a wonderful experience having lunch on Ricardo's patio & the food was to die for. Try the strawberry shortcake, it was delicious. We were served by Benjamin,
very patient & pleasant. We'll be back in the near future
for sure.

Bon petit resto pour un lunch hors de l'ordinaire .
Service un peut lent mais manque de staff ai-je cru comprendre . La terrasse était même fermée.
Mais la nourriture était délicieuse sauf le potage qui était.a mon avis sous épicé. Un morceau de robot pour la toilette client bien tenue
What a fun experience! My wife & I enjoyed our lunch very much. I was pleasantly surprised at how well simple ingredients could be brought together to create such depth in taste, texture & appearance. The staff was very busy, but still very friendly. I loved the fact that there was ample & accessible parking, & the mini vinyard in front was so quaint. Apart from enjoying Ricardo's cooking shows, my wife & I really enjoyed our visit to his boutique & café. We would return again!
