Back from our summer break, another training course and another brilliant meal. Over 20 of us descended on a Monday evening and the staff were great. The selection of starters arrived quickly and were very good. The choice of mains was restricted but we are on a fixed price menu option. Desserts are OK. When you consider we had three courses with wine for 30 euro you cannot complain - quite the opposite.

The restaurant has recently installed a wood fired oven for typical Italian pizza. The quality of the ingredients is outstanding while the baking process is the traditional one. The staff was extremely kind and helpful. Bill was pricey but in line with Brussels standard. I would go again and again! Grazie della vostra recensione.

A family restaurant. Home made pasta made with Love. The most delicious tasting pasta I have ever had. Silvana the daughter gave her recommendations which included two specials her mother makes in the kitchen. Tonight a black squid with shrimp and a porcini with spec. My husband and I shared both and loved every bite. We finished the meal with tiramisu...delish!

Il Pasticcio

Reviewed By Martin P

The time to read the menu, we were offered an aperitif, an "improved", tasty Prosecco… Nice surprise. The choice of meals is large, each of our group of four found his preferred lunch. Light for ladies, heavier for men. I went for lentils with smoked pork knuckle. Unfortunately, the juicy piece of pork knuckle I was dreaming about appeared to be just few pieces of meat dropped on the lentils. The taste was nice but it was not what I expected. My friends largely enjoyed their meal. Which was promptly served, no long waiting time to see first food arriving. At the end we were offered a Grappa or Limoncello. With winter outside, hard to refuse... Overall a positive experience, booking in advance for the lunch time is strongly recommended in this offices area.

Costa D'Amalfi

Wow, this place was great...AGAIN! It was my second visit here in 2018 and this time was just as good or better. The owner showed us real hospitality throughout the dinner. My friend ordered something he wasn’t crazy about and the owner brought something else just so he would be pleased! What great ownership! For appetizer I had smoked burrata with grilled veges. For entre I had the squid ink spaghetti with red tuna tartare again) and it was absolutely fantastic. For dessert the caprese chocolate cake (amazing!). House recommended red wine (don’t remember name) as well as espresso with dessert truly excellent too. I will be coming back if I get to visit Brussels a 3rd time!

On our last night in Brussels, we discovered Riccota & Parmesan when we wandered by their kitchen and saw the wood-fired pizza oven in use. Both the view and the aroma were enticing, so we opted to make our last evening meal a pizza. What a find!We ordered their burrata pesto pizza and here is where typical gives way to extraordinary. I swear that it was easily the best pizza I have ever had anywhere. The base layer of mouth-watering red sauce, coupled with the drizzle of fresh-made pesto atop the creamiest, freshest burrata I've ever sampled, and the crisp/chewy charred wood-fired crust I've ever enjoyed made this transcendent. Both my husband and I devoured every last bite of that pizza (along with a side order of the quintessential Belgian shrimp dumplings), and we contemplated ordering an additional pizza to take with us on the plane! I rarely rave over meals. I may enjoy them, but this time, I was so taken with the meal, I am actually looking forward to when we can return to Brussels so I can skip the dozens of delectable preparations of mussels and the endless national smorgasbord of pommes frites and head straight to this little slice of pizza heaven. If you are heading the the capital of the EU, then make it a point to pay Riccota & Parmesan a visit. You won't be disappointed.Honestly, your review made our day! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely comment! Before the end of this month, we are launching our new menu with delicious antipasti, platters of charcuteries and cheeses to share and many new discoveries, perhaps it would be the perfect opportunity to come visit us again? Looking forward seing you again in our restaurant, please contact us at [email protected] for your next reservation, we'll make sure to make your next visit even more special!"Ricotta & Parmesan, making food lovers happy since 1999".
