What our guests are saying

As a Marina girl, I hadn’t checked out Ristobar in a while but loved sitting at the 40 foot bar (longest bar in the Marina?)with WiFi and working on my laptop with a glass of wine and fritto misto and agnolotti. Loved the bartenders Scott and Cooper who cracked some jokes and lightened the mood. The private room in the back would also be the perfect place for a cozy private dinner or date night.

Ham and melon and mixed fried fish accompanied by a Pinot Noir, this was my starter. I continued with fresh pasta with braised ragu and continued with a second course of exceptional meat and polenta... I don't have photos but I will return soon and post them again... I AM SICILIAN, so the quality and this place is beyond all expectations... my compliments to all the staff and to the one who created it... the maestro Gary Rulli

A delicious spot with stellar service! So happy I got to try this. The white lotus was to die for as well as the carbonara. I will be coming back again and again! Mica made me and my family feel so loved. A wonderful place to come for a great night with great food.

Excellent service - I felt like a treasured guest here and the martinis were amazing. Highly recommend the gnocchi and hope to come back here soon. Also they had a dj on Friday night. So fun
