Ruggieri’s in Colleyville is not just a restaurant, it’s an authentic Italian Family experience. As a Texas transplant in the late 80’s from m the Northeast (Stratford, CT) its a challenge finding REAL Italian food. They make FOOD an art in terms of quality and service. The menu and selections are always varied and the staff and owners are sooooo hospitable offering suggestions for appetizers + wine pairing. SPECTACULAR = (from a devout foodie).
Celebrating a birthday could not have been more perfect. The specials were incredible, and because of the outstanding service, we never needed to look at the menu. The Sea Bass was cooked to perfection and the crab cake appetizer was actually 98% lump crab instead of 98% breading. Everything was delicious including a very diverse desert menu. Jani served us as if we were in a Michelin New York City restaurant. The most professional service I’ve ever enjoyed. Highly recommend Ruggeri’s if you’re looking for quality food with service excellence. (Make you sure you ask to be seated at one of Jani’s tables). Here is Jani with my family.
Food and service were great! I wish the ambiance was nicer, especially the bar area…it definitely needs an upgrade/remodel. Try the calamari, it was exceptional and loved our server!
My wife and I were having a date night. We loved the old location before the building was destroyed by fire. Our first time at current location. The ambience was wonderful. From the bread & olive oil to the lobster Thermidor and chicken parmigiana, it was perfect. Our waiter was incredible attentive and knowledgeable. We finished with key lime pie & tiramisu. Start to finish the evening was perfect. Thank you for a superb evening.
Small Restaurant with exceptional service and food. Live music on piano and they take requests. Higher end on prices and well worth it. Very personal with the owner always visiting with guests. Very classy. Parking can be found down the street - always seem to get the last open parking spot.
After eating here many times, I can reassure you this is a top notch place.
Everything this great.
Attentive wait staff. Exceptional service.
Hands down my favorite Italian restaurant in town. Authentic and tasty. The servers know what they are talking about!
Great overall perfect, one of my faves, food, ambiance spot on.
Delicious food,nice service!
Ok, so you're looking for an authentic dine-in Italian restaurant with amazingly high end food? This is the place hands down. I've been here about five times now, and I have not found a single item that was anything less than gourmet perfection. You feel very welcomed as you're greeted by the very knowledgeable staff. As you begin to make your way through the different courses, you become immersed with the ingredients of old Italy and the flavors are powerful. It's a phenomenal place to eat and it invites either a full family experience or just a romantic night out! You must add this place to the bucket list!
So happy to see this restaurant back in operation! This was one of our favorite local places before the fire that burned it down while the building was being roofed! And then, of course, the pandemic! They have an excellent menu that includes both the traditional pasta, lasagne, etc., but also some dishes that are more what you'd find in Italy as main courses -- fish, lamb, sweetbreads, veal, etc. The service is great and the atmosphere is calm and classy. Recommend it highly.
