Riccobono’s Peppermill is truly the place for all tastes.

The Riccobono family has been hosting the people of the Greater New Orleans area since the 1920's. Today, Riccobono's Peppermill is owned by the three daughters, Nettie, Clarita & Teresa and the Riccobono's only son, Vincent.   Vincent is currently managing the day-to-day operations for the family.

Vincent's grandfather was the original owner of the Pearl, the Central Business District oyster bar that in earlier times doubled as a New York-style delicatessen. The restaurant still exists, but under different ownership.

That same grandfather partnered with Vincent's father, Joseph Riccobono, to open Rick's Pancake Cottage on Canal Street. These were followed by a small local chain of steakhouses called Buck 49, many of which in time fell into the hands of various family members.

Joseph and Josie Riccobono's, opened The Peppermill in 1977 to offer patrons an upscale dining experience.
