rigatony's authentic italian

being in an italian family from new jersey, i can be pretty picky when it comes to italian food, but i must say, rigatony's does not disappoint!

first, i love the vibe! it just feels like a family owned italianrestaurantfrom the moment you enter, and the staff is incredibly nice as well! the antipasto salad and bread that you receive before your meal are delicious, and so is the rest of the food! 

i've tried the four cheese penne, baked rigatony and sea shells, and they've all been delicious! the baked rigatony is my favorite.

if you're looking for an authentic italianrestaurantin the valley, check out rigatony's! my husband and i will certainly be back!

tia is my absolute favorite italianrestaurantfood is always great. and service is amazing. our friends that we have introduced to rigatonys all love it as well.

can't wait to go back for great italian fare. first thing to know at thisrestaurantis lunch time is a zoo and you will have to wait or bar area seating be there at 11 and there is always tables. i'm a chicken picatta fan but the lasagna is to die for. fresh bread is crusty on the outside and hot and moist since it just came out of the oven. their house salad has black olives, pepperoncini, red onions, tomato, crispy lettuce and lots of sliced salami with a tasty italian dressing. a different lunch special every day so check their website to see the menu. they closed their mesarestaurantover 5 years ago. i was broken hearted as my colleagues and i would go there once or twice a week. i used to drop by for evening fried calamari and warm sambuca. needless to say, i rediscovered riga tony's last week and have been there twice. great food, terrific service and great value. i'm a satiated full ducky boy (;>]

italian cuisine. rigatoni’s is a family operate/owned italianrestaurantlocated east of warner/and mcclintock road, tempe, arizona. the building itself is decorated appropriately according to your typical italian restaurant, classic pictures everywhere and low ceilings; because of this you may be cramped. first glaze at menu will include many wine/liquor choices as well as many italian cuisine choices, prices ranging from $12-$18. great pasta and pizza lunch specials priced at $7.50 all meals do include complementary salad and bread. customer service is kind and social. waitress/waiters are quick to help your needs and to top of sodas. food is cooked well and served quickly and hot. prepared well and tastes excellent. portion size is limited, order more if hungry. i would recommend thisrestaurantto anyone looking for italian.

better lasagna than my mom's!. that is a true statement, and one i never thought i would utter! oh my, this localrestauranthas all of the efficiencies of a chain, but the incredible ingredients and flavors of an italian kitchen in little italy. i am so impressed.

also, because i didn't see any other reviews about this, they do have a kid's menu with some of the normal options, but it is made with the same level of excellence. our two boys (6 & 8) had the cheese ravioli and loved it, ate every bite.

highly recommend!

excellent! just one thing missing.... my husband and i live so close we walk here. excellent value of the money. sometimes it's a bit of a wait. (down side of being good...) we don't go there a lot because they don't have any live music. it would be the perfect neighborhood italianrestaurantif they did.
