Lunch menu was reasonably priced, and the food delicious! The fried zucchini appetizer was the best we have ever eaten. Hot, crispy, and the pesto dipping sauce was a nice touch. If you love Italian food like we do, the weekday specials are available on Saturday and Sunday. Joe had the rigatoni with sausage. I had chicken Parmesan and each came with a pasta side with marinara sauce. A family style antipasto salad and all the Italian bread you can eat is served too. Interestingly enough, there were shakers of Parmesan, dried oregano and gasp! Red pepper flakes and olive oil at the tables. While you would think this is the norm in Italian eateries, it isn’t. I usually have to ask for red pepper flakes and oil.
We had lunch mid afternoon, and the parking lot was starting to fill up by the time we left. There were other restaurants in the immediate area, but were not busy like this place.
Our waiter was the best. Attentive, answered questions, gave us suggestions on the menu and was very pleasant.
This restaurant also handles parties, like the birthday party yesterday.
We will definitely come back. Thank you Rigatony’s for making a last minute decision to eat there a great dining experience.
My family loves this restaurant. I am the lonely gluten free eater in our group of 5 and Rigatony's has several delicious gf menu items for me to enjoy! They never screw up my special orders either. Food and ambience are always top quality. Service is the best around. This is consisitent for the nearly 20 years I've lived in the east valley. The antipasto salad is second to none! Try it and you will be back for more in no time. Marissa is our favorite server, she is amazing, we got to see her for lunch today! Thank you Rigatony's. We are devoted regulars for life!!
Having visited this restaurant a few times, we are never disappointed by the food or the service. We absolutely love RigaTony's! Yesterday night was no exception. We came in and had a wonderful dinner and with kids was in such a hurry to get out, forgot our leftovers. I went back in to see our table already cleared and was approached by the server and told it was thrown away. As he was apologizing, Mike the manager, walked by and heard. I told him it was fine but he insisted on making me my dish over. I only mention my meal (the other was a kids meal and soup) but when he came out he had made my meal, kids meal, soup and even threw in bread & salad! Having worked in the restaurant business I was so impressed with how he treated his customers. Not only do they have some of the best Italian food I've ever had but they go above and beyond to provide you with a great dining experience. Thank you Mike and the RigaTonys crew, we will be seeing you soon!
