This made my new year! I had the short rib egg rolls, OMG, I'm in heaven! I been waiting a long time for these amazing crisp and delicious little morsels. We also had the chicken parmesan and chicken franchise, along with pasta and potato croquet with an apple martini. Everything was amazing but I have to say the star of the night was our server John, who is just delightful, professional and attentive! Orrico's Italian Restaurant, great food and service every time! read more

All about the food: First off, the portions are big and are made to share. I had the Chicken Parmesan and it was the biggest I ever had! It was tasty and made with that Italian love. Others in my party loved the mushroom spaghetti special. read more

Tasty food. Awful service and presentation! Cold & hard bread. No oil in Lil plate, to dip--Italian culture) got a big bottle of oil! Chicken was overflowing with too much sauce. Don't recommend read more

The food was delicious! I been looking for a restaurant in the neighborhood with some amazing chicken parm and orricos definitely was that place! Its been a while since i got a nice size, thin, large cutlet. The penne vodka was also great! U can add it as a side for $7 extra. My husband got the tortellini nonni which is cheese tortellini in a creamy sauce with peas and mushrooms. It was exceptional! I order from orricos often and i wont stop! Give it a try when you can!! read more

I placed an online order for delivery. Food was fresh, delicious, packed with diligence, and the serving portions were great!

Wonderful dinner, awesome family staff! I sat at the bar, having a proper dirty martinis with my meal. I started with eggplant rolotini that was stuffed perfectly with spinach and ricotta. For dinner, the bartender recommended the rigatoni orrico which was a mix of bolognese and Alfredo, it was so tasty and a huge serving. My favorite part was the homemade ice cream, it was tri color cookie flavor. I loved it! read more

Very good local Italian restaurant. Started with Italian meatball soup, then pasta dishes. The tartufo at the end. Finished off a very good meal. Kudos to the best way I've seen in ages....John. read more

Love this restaurant. We order from my school all the time. It is a Pelham Bay family staple. :)

Food and service are outstanding! This is a neighborhood gem!! Try the rice ball appetizer, it's awesome. Personally, I love the chicken parm. read more

It's very disappointing when my family loves this restaurant but they allow people to have their cellphones on speaker. It's okay to take a call but to have it on speaker and no one says anything. There were a group of guys and one was on face time for 1/2 an hour. The other time there was a man with his phone on speaker as if he were in his living room. Another time, one of the workers was viewing a game on his cellphone and the volume was way high. It's ridiculous. The food is great but they need better rules to make dining comfortable for their customers. It used to be a classy restaurant. Please make it a policy to not allow people to be on speakerphone and please have better rules to make dining pleasant. Thank you. read more

Very good food! Large portion. We took home 1/2 of our meals. Service was very good. We had John as our waiter. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a nice clean and relaxing atmosphere. We really enjoyed everything. We will comeback back in the future. read more

My friends and I found this place on a whim. We absolutely LOVED this place. We would all come back! All the food was fresh and delicious. The pasta tasted home made. read more

Orrico's Italian Restaurant - Rigatoni Bolognese (top) Spaghetti with Meatball (top right) Chicken Parmigiana (bottom) - Italian Near Me - The Bronx, New York

A stone's throw from the Buhre Ave. 6 train line, Orrico's is a warm and authentic Italian restaurant in the Pelham Bay Area which might (or might not) be easily missed due to where it sits on - but it shouldn't be. I can't take credit for knowing about Orrico's. Actually, a dear coworker of mine had said great things about this place several months ago. Even though chairs are up during the pandemic, the inside has nice bones and it's low-key without being pretentious. I'm really not sure what's Orrico's highlight. All I wanted was something quick and got two Spinach salads with grilled shrimp on mine and grilled chicken for my mom. But they do offer fusilli, gnocchi, orecchiette pasta dishes on the menu too which are well worth a gander. The price tag wasn't cheap- nor hefty. I may have wanted maybe two more shrimp in my salad to at least make up for that price. Service though, was pleasant from my guy Vincent (?). I placed my order by phone and salads were prepped within 15 minutes time. I don't mind stopping here next time and trying some of their Italian main contenders on the menu that actually sound mouth-watering. read more

Best Italian restaurant in the Bronx. You can't go wrong with any dish. Yum. Try the rigatoni ala orrico and don't forget to add a chicken cutlet on top. Best chicken parm anywhere also. read more

Food was delis! Best grilled chicken over pasta with olive oil and garlic I've had. However, went on Sunday about 4:45pm and it was so busy it delayed our meal quite a bit They definitely need one person dedicated for take outs and not one of the servers. They could be serving the customers instead. Overall, nice atmosphere and good food !!! Definitely recommend !!!!! read more

Had a wonderful time this past Friday celebrating a birthday for a lifelong friend. Atmosphere, food, drinks and service was amazing. Everyone had a wonderful time. All smiles all love felt throughout the restaurant Will be returning soon. read more

A 45 minute drive from Paramus NJ and well worth the trip! The atmosphere, the ladies, the chef are all warm, friendly and welcoming. Everyone makes an effort to make you feel like family. They definitely know how to mix drinks which is always a plus in my book. The food was delicious from the broccoli rabe egg rolls to the mussels the the Caesar salad. The gem of course was the dinner veal valdostana and veal parmigiana...YUM!!! Our meal was topped off with pistachio tartufo. Next time you are looking for an exceptional meal, do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal! read more

We went to Orrico's yesterday and enjoyed ourselves. The calamari was better than most that I've tried in the past. The chicken parmigiana was very good & was a large portion. The side of penne was average. The service was very good. The staff were very friendly & attentive. Nice comfy decor with relaxing music in the background. Overall it was a good dinner. I'd recommend giving them a try. read more

We lived in the neighborhood for over 50 years. I moved out long ago but come back to visit family. Last Sunday I enjoyed the best, most authentic Italian food. So much like mom's cooking. Outstanding food, service and price point. Rice Balls out of this world. read more

We had our Gaelic and Garlic Society ( Cardinal Spellman HS class of 1973) semi annual get together this past spring. Our classmate Donny Orrico is a cousin to the owner so he set up the whole dinner. It was so great that we scheduled another get together in late October. We started with around five different but equally delicious appetizers including clams oreganato, eggplant rolls Tini, Italian egg rolls, and clams posillipo. Then two different pastas. Then multiple entries including chicken, veal and shrimp dishes. Everything was family style so we tasted all of the delicious food. After that the desserts came out! Oh, did I forget, the spirits were flowing throughout! Bravo Orrico's! I highly re read more

Great food, great service, awesome staff. My absolute favorite dishes are the chicken parmigiana and the chicken francese with the spaghetti with garlic and oil. They are ridiculously good and don't even get me started on the half baked cinnamon buns with the cinnamon ice cream....BEYOND DELICIOUS!! read more

Solid Italian spot. Very nice decor, good service and well prepared food. Nice sized portions. I've been here for lunch only several times and all the items were way above average. Very reasonable prices too. Don't hesitate to eat here read more

This is my 3rd time ordering from Orrico's Italian Restaurant. I had it picked up this time to use my $20 off GrubHub perk. This food is the best in the Bronx and I can't wait to enjoy a dine-in experience. I'm in a and it will be worth every strategic move I must make to be in attendance. Thank you Orrico's . read more

A neighborhood Italian restaurant that caters to traditional favorites. Friendly and welcoming to all

One of my favorite places in The Bronx, the food is delicious and amazing... I'm always so impressed with their attention and enthusiasm for our community... i highly recommend the authentic food and the hospitality!!! Thank you to Antonio and everyone who made my evening so special!!! read more

So glad the wife got a gift certificate for this place. The food is delicious. We had fried calamari for an appetizer, it was so tender and tasty and the slices of cherry peppers are the perfect compliment. For the main course I had the chicken parmigiana with penne with vodka sauce. The gravy on the chicken parm was delicious. And while the vodka sauce was pretty good it had a little too much sauce on the dish (my only complaint). Wife had the chicken Francese, which wasn't on the menu, but they gladly made it for her. It was also delicious. We will definitely be back read more

Orrico's Italian Restaurant - Chicken parm and penne alla vodka - Italian Near Me - The Bronx, New York

So the hour trip from northern Westchester down to the Bronx was definitely worth it. ToniAnn and her staff, plus her amazing husband the chef (sorry, didn't get his name) made this meal memorable. Five friends for dinner and no one complained. Rice balls like mom made. Clams and calamari delicious. We had stuffed filet of sole, sole oreganata and cavatelli in a ragu. All tasting each other's food. Can't wait to come back to try other dishes. Do yourself a favor and go to this restaurant. Great food, great service and very friendly people. read more

We decided to stay in the neighborhood tonight. I have had this book marked since they opened. The decor is very nice. Classy, with the covers over the chairs. We walked in, they were pretty busy. The waitress asked if we had a reservation? We said no, but she seated us. The menu had lots of goodies on it. We started off with a red and white Sangria. That was probably the best Sangria I ever had. We ordered the baked clams, which were delicious. I wanted to drink the juice! I went with the special of the Chicken Sorrentino. It was excellent. My husband had the Chicken Valdestano. We had the dessert recommended by the waitress which was the pistachio tartufo. It was very good. The service was excellent. They were busy, and the service was excellent! We will be back. read more

First-rate service, and excellent food! Everything is fresh delicious. You've never had a sausage and peppers sub until you had one at Orrico's (made with fresh bread from the bakery across the street). read more
