Ricciotti Pizza Pasta & Deli @ China Square Central

Ricciotti has opened its second outlet here serving the same delicious Italian deli selections and pastries as its Riverwalk original. The homely interior makes a good setting, as does the display counter showcasing a wonderful array of stunning desserts. Try its gourmet sandwiches, bruschettas and pizzas. Also not to be missed are its fabulous desserts such as the affogato (expresso with ice cream) and homemade gelato with gorgeous flavors like gianduja (hazelnut and chocolate), sabayon and vanilla bourbon. The service is great—intuitive but never intrusive.


It’s more than just dough and cheese at these gourmet pizza joints: expect lovingly hand-crafted pizzas with an imaginative array of toppings and perfectly blistered crust. Check out our top 10 pizza places.
