My wife and I went to Rizzis for our dinner date. We were served warm fresh bread with excellent dipping sauce. I told my wife to try to make it at home because it was really excellent. The dining experience was great, we had wines, and ate good food. The prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly and approachable.

If it were an option… 10 stars!! The food was incredible, but the timing and service will be what keeps bringing me back when I come home to Rochester. I’m just disappointed in my bff for not taking me sooner.

Outstanding Italian food. We were a party of 8. Everyone loved their meals. House red wine in carafe was good. Recommend the calamari for apps. Service a little slow even though we had a reservation. Wait staff was excellent.

Zero stars. Towed my car from the restaurant parking while I was eating without asking me at all, as the owner had profiled me and my car as someone who would not be eating at this establishment. He claimed he had asked everyone in the restaurant, however when he approached our table in the middle of our meal we were only asked how the food was. The towing damaged the park gear of vehicle, but the owner simply laughed at me and claimed it wasn’t his fault or responsibility. On top of this, the food and service were quite mediocre; the zucchini that was served as a side to my chicken Marsala had a strange almost metallic quality to their flavor, and the calamari had the thickest breading I have ever seen. On top of this, it all took forever to come out. Pretty unbelievable. Neither I nor anybody I know will ever come back here again.

Our family came to Rizzi’s on 8/4/22 to celebrate a 49th birthday. We shared two delicious appetizers, Sicilian Calamari and French Artichoke Hearts. Our wonderful dinners included Chicken Guida, Chicken French, Veal Parm and Seafood Fra Diavolo. We will definitely return.

I got the chicken French! Very good. They gave bread with oil dipping instead of butter (10/10). The dressing was more savory instead of sweet! Very good, I will be back!

My husband and I went for dinner 4-5-23. I had chicken Tuscany & he had veal parmigian and a house salad. Everything was delicious & cooked to perfection. Also the portions were generous & we’re enjoying the leftovers tonight at home. The staff was friendly and attentive too. Great experience!!!

ZERO STARS. Terrible customer service. Came by Rizzis for dinner- waited for friends to meet us that were running late so we figured we would grab a drink next door. Next thing you know, 10 mins later my car is being towed by Seton from the Rizzis lot. We went back to talk to the owner, who said he watched us walk away from our car, called Seton towing immediately. Horrible,no sympathy, will never be returning here for dinner.

Parked at Rizzis to grab a drink next door while waiting for friends to come meet us for dinner at Rizzis. 15 minutes later, my car gets towed by Seton Towing. Rizzis owner Steve was waiting at the bar to say “too bad I’m sick of people parking in my lot.” We told him we were waiting for friends to meet us here for dinner as they were running late. He had no sympathy and said sorry there’s signs everywhere. (Which there was one on a far corner on a tree that is not visible) On top of this, the tow company SETON is cash only as they are more than likely laundering money with Steve Rizzi. I will never return to this establishment for dinner or to support this business.

Rizzis is a true gem, if you visit I believe you will agree. We arrived for dinner on a beautiful Fall evening and took advantage of their quaint patio. It was a very attractive setting for a nice dinner on a Friday evening. Our server was very professional, which is uncommon these days, and she delivered first class service. The menu is loaded with pleasing offerings and the prices are quite reasonable. We decided on an appetizer of Artichoke Hearts and they were delicious. They have a decent selection of wines too. For our entrees we went with the stuffed flounder and the Veal French. We were both pleased with our selections and agreed they were perfectly prepared and delicious. We appreciated that the owner took the time to stop by our table and ask us how everything was, that is a mark of caring about your customers. We left feeling very satisfied with our decision to dine at Rizzis and agreed we will return. I highly recommend this fine establishment, it has everything going for it: quality service, delicious food, reasonable prices, and a charming ambiance.
