Came here for date night. Our table wasn't quite ready when we arrived but we didn't mind waiting…read moreand it only took about 5 minutes. We reserved a table inside but it was very noisy so we asked our server if we could move outside instead. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. For an appetizer we got the burrata - nothing special but good. I wish there had been a couple more pieces of bread with it. For my main I got the orecchiette tre porcellini and was warned beforehand that it had a slight spice to it. It definitely did have a little kick but nothing I couldn't handle. Very tasty. For dessert we shared the tiramisu which was great. I enjoyed my first time here and would definitely consider coming back. Someone near us got a pizza that looked amazing so I'd like to try one of those next. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 doesn't even have anything to do with the restaurant itself. Once before entering the building and multiple times while we were inside, we received stares from numerous different customers. They were all admittedly uppity-looking. It felt like we had eyes on us the whole time. One woman even did a full 180 turn at the bar to glance at us (I could see the bar area from outside when the sun started going down). I'm not sure if this restaurant is frequented more by locals who aren't used to seeing outside people; I live an hour outside Bluffton. But that just kind of dampened the entire experience and made it a bit uncomfortable. We weren't doing or wearing anything to draw attention. And that may very well have been a one-off situation but still something to note.

Food was very good, but not great. I had the Rigatoni all'Amatriciana and my wife the Orecchiette…read moreTre Porcellini. Flavors were good and pasta was cooked well. A little too salty for our tastes and too many bacon bits in both dishes. We probably should've asked them to hold or reduce. He also ordered the Pig and Fig appetizer. Not 100% sure, but the appeared to be dried rather than fresh. Ambiance was not great. Inside seemed very loud so we opted for an outdoor table. Thankfully the weather was nice other than a few flies. However, this restaurant is on a busy road in what I would describe as a small office building with a few storefronts. Tables are close to the road and parking lot. Service was good: very friendly and helpful. Also an ample wine list especially Italian wines, plus the Wednesday we were there featured 25% off on bottles.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! While working with clients on Hilton Head…read moreIsland, I dined at Radici in Bluffton; it was an experience I shall not soon forget. The interior decor is chic, modern, clean, and illuminated beautifully; there are tiny black LED lamps on the tables which highlight the food without blinding the guests. Our server, Michelle, was friendly, welcoming, and attentive; she kept the water-glasses filled and the courses served. The restaurant features an open-air kitchen with a wrap-around bar; I was introduced to the chef and was able to speak with him in my (limited) Italian. It was truly wonderful to hear and feel his enthusiasm for excellent, northern Italian cooking! The menu is very small...and that is a good thing. By focussing on only a few dishes, the chef and his team are able to provide an unforgettable culinary experience. The highlight of our dinner was the halibut collar which, if you've never enjoyed, I highly recommend. OH. MY. GOD. Although I have enjoyed many fish courses in my life, this is, was, and remains one of those special meals which I shall remember for a very long time. It was truly exceptional: rhythmic with flavour and firm with texture, sauced gently but appropriately and (absolutely) served piping hot on the plate. I must confess I do not recall the other dishes but they were all very good. I believe there was a squid hors-d'oeuvre which I enjoyed, and a very special 'Black Leather' cocktail (?). I cannot remember a better meal than this, not in a very long time. I absolutely and unequivocally recommend Radici for anyone wishing for modern, beautifully cooked, and served northern Italian cuisine. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I've often complained of the lack of good food in the Hilton Head/Bluffton area, and Radici is a…read morewonderful exception. I took my family here for Christmas Eve dinner with the intention of doing the tasting menu. We reserved seats at the bar that runs the length of the restaurant, and were seated promptly. Service was very friendly, and we had a great view of the open concept kitchen. Throughout the meal the chef and waitstaff would chat with us and explain what all was on our plates. We started with cocktails. I ordered The Radici, which had mezcal and beet juice, certainly not a common combination in my experience. They have an aperol spritz equivalent that my mother and girlfriend raved over as quite refreshing. The meal started with an oyster as an amuse bouche, a great local touch given the popularity of oysters in the area. Stuck with seafood for the first course, with halibut flan being something I'm still a bit confused by as a concept, though that did not stop me from enjoying it. The second course continued to be innovative relative to what is usually found in the area, with ravioli stuffed with broth and filling on the outside. Third course was lamb, and was well done. Finally dessert was a roasted panettone for Christmas Eve that was very tasty with chocolate cream. One small improvement would be the option to pair the tasting menu with wine selections, but we were able to get along fairly well with some help from the waiter ordering a couple of bottles of wine. Overall a welcome addition to the area that I could easily see myself returning to when in town.

We were greeted and seated immediately. Our waiter was friendly and obviously very overworked. Only 3 people were working on this fairly busy Friday night. The owner/cook and 2 waiters (who also seat, pack to go, bus, expedite, etc.). I did notice an odd smell (like urine) but no one else seemed bothered. The burrata appetizer was good and presented well. Next up the entrees. We had veal Marsala which was average and chicken piccata. The chicken piccata tasted baked not fried (strange) but the sauce was good and gf pasta was great! Lastly, the dessert... tiramisu. The waiter said it was homemade and highly recommended. It was very cold from the refrigerator but otherwise was fine. I had high hopes coming in but I'd give an average overall rating.

The restaurant was pretty busy, but they did have adequate staff available so we were offered drinks right away. The bread that was brought out was very small pillow like rectangular pieces with some olive oil and balsamic to dip in. It was cold and not very impressive. We shared a burrata and it came with four slices of tomatoes and two balls of burrata drizzled with balsamic over some romaine lettuce. It was a nice start to the meal. I had the chicken marsala and my aunt had the chicken parmesan. The portion size was adequate and her pasta and veal had a lot of red sauce on it. The marsala sauce was a bit thin, and I would've liked more on my pasta. We each had a glass of wine which was served quickly and complemented the meal nicely. The server was attentive and the food was hot. Overall, it was a good, not great experience.

For pasta, we had the tagliatelle with veal ragù, which was bursting with deep, rich flavor, and the strozzapreti, which was incredibly light yet still full of flavor in every bite. We ended the night with dessert, and both were exceptional, the blackberry sorbet was refreshing and vibrant, and the chocolate budino was rich, silky, and amazing. We also sat on the back patio with our dog, which we really appreciated since they are dog-friendly. The only suggestion would be to improve the walkway access to the back patio for guests with dogs; it wasn't the most comfortable route, as the adjacent area was quite messy. Our waiter, James was great and loved chatting with him. Overall, a truly memorable meal with beautiful flavors and we would absolutely return.

The pasta with sausage and broccoli rabe was cooked al dente to perfection with a light flavorful sauce.

The salad with pine nuts was tasty. The restaurant could accommodate our diet willingly. Our pizza was last to be served... about 5-6 minutes after all the other food was served. That was okay, but certainly not ideal. The other pizzas that were ordered looked covered with cheese and ingredients. While ours did taste good, the flavors in the sauce were quite nice, the toppings were very skimpy. I could hardly see any onions or basil and sparse mushrooms. Speaking from experiences of pizza at other places with our vegan request, typically the pizza is more loaded with the vegetables since we are not having any cheese (I.e. cost savings to the restaurant) to compensate and make the pizza look more substantial. It is a policy I would strongly recommend for us vegan folks. We would then return with company who would order the items off the menu... now we have no incentive to return because the pizza was ok but not worth the price. This is my humble opinion based on our travels outside of beaufort South Carolina. Here is a plus... we asked for a gimlet cocktail... not on the menu, but the bartender knew what it was and did a nice job making it!!

Turned Around Reviewer and Family…read more As promised, we have again visited Ralphie's Pizza. Again, it was early afternoon on a Thursday around 2:15 PM. True to his word from his reply to our first review Joel (Owner), gave us a free Pizza, and I bought one as well. Both pizza's I am very happy to report were very tasty and delicious which we all enjoyed right down to the fresh basil they added, at our request to both of our extra large cheese pizzas. We all feel we can highly recommend dining in at Ralphie's very roomie and comfortable restaurant or taking out their pizza's as it was a very pleasant experience. So take your Brother Tom, your Sister Sue, your clairvoyant Aunt Ruby, who can tell you how delicious your pizza will be before you get there and you know, how much she enjoys saying "I told you so", but go, and enjoy one of our "Low Country's" best pizza offerings. That's right, this is a turned around reviewer and Family! Visit Ralphie's Pizza at 61 Rivet Walk BLVD in Okatie, or Ridgeland, SC (to be clear, the same place. But why should I be responsible for figuring out the right town location, when YELP, can't) because you will enjoy their pizza. And for those of you with a parsimonious nature calculating that the free Pizza made us change our minds, I would remind you that we threw out four pieces of pizza from one pizza, and four pieces from the second pizza in our first review. While it was very generous of Ralphie's Owner Joel, to make good on his offer which we all appreciated, it in no way influenced our second review. You see 1-1+1=2 which is what we paid for the first time. Visit and enjoy their pizza as it could become Pizza Central for you and your Family. Enjoy!
