Best in Greendale!

When I first moved to Greendale, I ate at Ricardo's with my family. I liked it a lot, but it wasn't until my third visit that I branched out and tried the cheeseburger pizza. Then, it quickly became my favorite restaurant in Greendale, one of my faves in Milwaukee! The cheeseburger pizza sounds weird, but everyone I bring to try it loves it. It tastes just the right amount of ketchupy and even has pickles in it! I also tried the BLT pizza and most of the others, and they're all good! Best pizza! I've never had a problem with the service, but you will probably have to wait, if not for a table, then for your pizza, because it takes a half hour to bake.
- Pros: Food, service, beer
- Cons: wait time, size
Poor Service, Average Food, Rude employees

Food was extremely late, approximately 45 minutes on a Wednesday night for one pizza. My beer glass was empty for most of it. I was told to "hold on a sec" about 10 times from servers too busy to even talk to me (the place was dead, but they had somewhere to go). Pizza was dark on top with undercooked crust, and LOTS of sauce. Appetizer was average(combination basket), but the price was insane. $36 for 1 pizza and 1 app...include the extremely poor service and this is the last place I would ever go to again.
- Pros: Downtown Greendale is awesome, except for this place.
- Cons: The staff and food.
Best Pizza Anywhere.

I live in California now and cannot find any pizza that compares to Ricardo's. I have eaten at Ricardo's many times and I absolutely love it. I love the thin crust! I have only had pizza and garlic bread, and both are fantastic. I recommend sausage and onion. That is my favorite. You must try this pizza at least once if you live in the area.
Please note that it is ALWAYS very busy. You should always expect to wait. To me it is very very worth it. Delicious.
- Pros: Best pizza. Thin crust.
- Cons: Always busy.
