Daniel our attendant was great,knowledgeable, friendly, available but not too much. The food was exquisite, carbonara just right and the dark meat chicken was soft with a hint of red cherry pepper. I need to visit here many times to try all the dishes I didn't sample tonight. Great wine selection and attention to detail at every turn..can't wait for Dolce Vita and cappuccino...a definite stop if traveling anywhere within 3 states...

We always drove by this restaurant and finally had the pleasure of dining here on Friday night and it was so good, my husband and I went back again the next night. Food quality is 5 stars, delicious and beautifully presented plates. The drinks (in particular their “New Old Fasion”) were some of the best I’ve had in awhile. A smooth and jazzy warm feeling comes over you when you walk in to the candle lit restaurant with wonderful decor everywhere you look. The service was good, but a little too slow for my liking. However the staff was kind and responsive.

Absolutely phenomenal experience from start to finish. The food? Flawless. The service? Impeccable. The atmosphere? Warm, elegant, and exactly what you’d expect from a top-tier restaurant. Every detail was on point, and it’s clear that pride and passion are behind everything they do. What truly sets Rraci’s apart is the heart behind the operation. Hayden, the owner, is incredibly welcoming—his friendliness and hospitality elevate the entire experience. Knowing the restaurant is family owned and operated just makes it that much more special. If you’re looking for a place that delivers high-end dining with genuine warmth and charm, this is it. Rraci’s is an absolute must-visit!

A top notch gem. Great food, bar & staff. Always packed- reservations for dinner recommended & free parking lot fills up quick! Haven't had a dish of theirs I haven't liked & I've had plenty! 5

It has been way too long since we last visited since we do not live closeb y, but I wanted to bring the family to a nice place for my wife's 50th and was hoping that it was how we remembered it from years ago. We were surprised to see how much they updated the exterior and interior of the restaurant...looks much more modern but still cozy. The service was top notch just like we remembered. The food was all very good...portions are average size not huge. We started with calamari and meatballs. Mains were cavatelli, lasagna, chicken sicilia, & risotto special and everyone enjoyed them. Prices are what you would expect. We will be returning and would recommend.

Great dining experience. The waiters here were always around and constantly removing empty plates and sweeping crumbs off our table. The food was delicious and the portion sizes are enough food to keep you full. I dined with (2) people including myself with a 5:45pm reservation and the restaurant was fairly empty upon arrival (makes sense they open at 5:00pm). As the night went in the entire restaurant was filled - probably around 6:30-7:00. With a full house the service slowed down a little but not a terrible amount and is to be expected while it’s busy. You are going to pay more than a normal sit down dinner, but paying for the ambiance and great service feels well worth it. There is plenty of parking at this location as well. Overall great experience, and if you’re willing to pay a little more I would easily recommend for a great night out.

Rraci is nothing short of perfection—a culinary haven that feels like a step back in time to an era when impeccable service and genuine warmth were the gold standard. This gem of a restaurant is my home away from home, where every visit feels like a celebration with family. Santos crafts the most epic espresso martinis, and Dominik’s signature Rraci’s ‘new fashion’ is a masterful twist on the classic old fashioned that will leave you wanting another. The incredible team—Enis, Mikey, Endrit, Hime, and Dion—welcomes you with genuine smiles, heartfelt hospitality, and just the right touch of humor that makes the evening soar by. The food? Simply divine. The shrimp cocktail will ruin all others for you—it’s that good. The beet salad, creamy carbonara, perfectly seared cast iron filet mignon, and indulgent chicken rollatini are just a few standouts, not to mention the daily fish specials that are as fresh as they are flawlessly prepared. Under Larry’s masterful culinary direction, the kitchen consistently delivers an unparalleled dining experience. Rraci’s ambiance is magical. The cozy, timeless interior is steeped in charm, while the newly added atrium room brings a sleek, modern elegance that’s perfect for private celebrations or special occasions. It’s the ideal blend of old-world warmth and contemporary sophistication. With its bustling atmosphere every night of the week, reservations are a must—and trust me, the wait is always worth it. Rraci isn’t just a restaurant; it’s an experience, a treasure, and a testament to the art of dining done right.
