I had my wedding here. Everything was amazing! Lynn Welles was a blessing through the entire process if booking our day clear up to being there the day of our wedding! We orderded our cake from Rizzo's pastry chef. Not only was it convenient but it was delicious. We received alot of compliments on the food, cake and venue! Would definately recommend Rizzo's for your event!

Fantastic local restaurant which not only offers excellent food, but also offers catering. In fact you can plan your entire event and hold it at Rizzo's since they have a large area for about any sized event you can think of. Again, the food is awesome most of which is homemade. Our server Aeriel was very friendly, prompt and helpful with menu options. Thanks Aeriel, you helped make the special night out that much more so. We are so fortunate to have such a fine "one of a kind" restaurant in the area. 20241213 Had a wonderfulu large party (50) event that was just perfect. The food of course is great, but the staff is perfect and they have it so nicely decorated for Christmas. Just a perfect restaurant for dinner for two or a large party too.

I enjoyed my son's wedding yesterday at the venue across the street from the main restaurant. Everything was perfect. The food was fantastic. I had guests tell me that it was the best food that they ever had at a wedding reception. The staff couldn't have been more professional and efficient. Never a dirty plate sat on the table. I would highly recommend the restaurant and the event venue to anyone!

My husband and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary with dinner and drinks at Rizzos. Sandra D. was our waitress and she was absolutely phenomenal. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. We even had a nice conversation with her before we left. Our drinks and food arrived quickly and everything was delicious. After dinner, we stopped into their shop attached to the restaurant and picked up some gelato for dessert. I would definitely recommend stopping by for a date night - we will be back!

Rizzo’s has always been one of our favorite restaurants. When it came time to plan our wedding, we knew it had to be at Rizzo’s! From our initial tour to the wedding day, everything went smoothly. Lynn was by our side every step of the way always willing to answer our questions and help us bring our vision to life. The staff was so kind and made sure that we did not have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding. The food was amazing and the cookie display was beautiful! Rizzo’s fireworks were the perfect end to our day. We highly recommend Rizzo’s for all of your dining/event needs!

The food here is absolutely delicious. Great family atmosphere. They make you feel like you are family. Friendly and efficient staff. The lamb chops are FANTASTIC!!! If you dine here, come hungry. The portions are LARGE. You will not go away hungry. If it's just dinner for 2, a large family dinner or a catered event, I highly recommend giving Rizzo's a try. You won't be disappointed.
