***Dear Valued Patrons,
We write to inform you that after 47 wonderful years of serving our community, Riccobono's Peppermill will be closing its doors.
Our journey began nearly half a century ago with our founders Joe and Josie Riccobono, and their passion for bringing the finest flavors and warmest hospitality to your tables. Over the years, we have had the immense privilege of becoming a part of your lives, sharing in your celebrations, milestones, and even the quiet moments that become cherished memories. The love and support you have shown us have been the driving force behind our dedication, and for that, we are eternally grateful.
We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. Your loyalty, smiles, and kind words have been the heart and soul of Riccobono's Peppermill. It's been an honor to serve you, to witness your stories unfold within these walls, and to be a place where connections were made.
We also want to extend a very special thank you to our employees who have been with us throughout this incredible journey, some since the very beginning. These men and women have come in early, stayed late, and worked hard to provide exceptional food and service to our customers. They are very special to us and we wish them all a heartfelt thank you.
As the primary factor in this transition, we're thrilled to announce that Vincent Riccobono and Cami Chiarella are embarking on a new chapter in their lives: a well-deserved retirement. While the curtains may be drawing to a close on Riccobono's Peppermill, the spirit that has made this journey so special will live on in our other restaurants. The legacy of flavor, warmth, and excellence will continue to thrive at Sala NOLA, Riccobono's Panola Street Cafe, and Cafe Navarre, where you'll find some of the familiar faces and flavors that have been a part of your lives for so long.
Thank you for being a part of our journey, for allowing us to be a part of yours, and for making Riccobono's Peppermill a cherished memory in the tapestry of our lives. Here's to new beginnings, to continued friendships, and to the flavors that will always remind us of the time we spent together!
Our last day of service will be this Sunday, September 3rd ending at 2pm. Please come celebrate with us until then, we would love to serve you your favorite Peppermill dish one last time! ??

Great weekend brunch that I will miss.

I hope Tulanelsu can pry himself from his busy schedule to comprise a top 10 most missed dishes list from their bland food menu.

I think a large share of their clientele died off. Was hard pressed to find many patrons under 75-80yo there.

Haven't been in awhile.. I would always get the Eggs Benedict with a side of grits.. The coffee was always good. Every time I went there it was crowded but that has been at least 5 years ago. I guess add it to the list of "Ain't dere no more"...

I will miss the Friccassee for lunch on Tuesdays

I loved their breakfasts...they had great eggs and omelets with a generous serving of grits and the best grilled biscuits. The coffee was always fresh and hot....always had good service. I hope they will open with new owners.

I've never eaten there for lunch or dinner, but I had assumed it was an older crowd. I liked Peppermill because of their breakfast, especially on weekends.
Ruby Slipper, Broken Egg, Russells Grill, etc are always such packed craziness on weekends so it was nice sometimes to get a relaxing breakfast at Peppermill. They even took reservations.

I had a friend refer to the Riccobono's Peppermill as "wheel chair city" because of the amount of senior citizens who dined there. I hope somebody buys the place and reopens it.

Seems unlikely. That demographic is not really replacing itself in that area.

Metairie is slowly dying and will look more and more like Orleans Parish in the upcoming years.
Everyone headed to the Northshore or out of state.
A reincarnated Peppermill would be best placed in Mandeville.

First time I ever ate veal, then wanted more after I did.

Metairie maybe isn’t dying per se, but I wouldn’t call it a growing area either
