Cute Italian sports bar and restaurant in the Hill neighborhood frequented by locals. We were looking for a place with a more casual vibe and authentic Italian food. We had great service and good food - this place was just right! Wonderful meal with large portions.
Our food came out quickly and was hot. Our toasted ravioli appetizer came quick and was piping hot. But, the crust was like biting into a cracker. Our meals came quickly. The food wasn't very hot. My dinner had too much garlic, scallions and red pepper flakes...too many pepper flakes, I couldn't eat my chicken parmesan. My husband got spaghetti and meatballs. His dinner was about the same. While the food could've been better, the atmosphere was awesome. The owners are hands on with the custoners. Our waitress was really good and effient. She checked on us frequently and it was nice to have good service. We went on a Sunday evening and the dress is definitely casual. People had shorts on and everyone seemed relaxed. We had a good time!
At any Italian restaurant on the hill, you can expect to find toasted ravioli. It's generally a pretty "safe" option. Ravioli that's been breaded and deep fried and served with marinara. But Rigazzi's doesn't bread theirs, it's just fried. It doesn't look very appetizing and doesn't taste much better. The salad was good though. I'd order that again, only because Rigazzi's is near an antique mall I like to stroll through, so I can place a carry out order while I stroll.
Don't Waste your hard earned $$$ with mediocre tasting food and little portions that my 15 yo stated Dominos Pizza had better Pasta. I brought my in-laws, wife and two kids(12 & 15). I ordered the toasted ravioli and flash fried spinach as Appetizers. Drinks were slow in coming. Only toasted ravioli came out and it was HORRIBLE! Look at what we received and what they advertised. It was cold and ends of do was tough. I had to go ask for the fried Spinach and received excuse thought we wanted it with meal. That's BS as ordered as appetizer and finally she apologized forgot to put in order. At least waitress admitted and that happens but don't lie . My wife ordered Tutomare(Fruit of the sea) At $26. Side salad was extra $6. Count how many you see? 3 small clams and very small portion of pasta for $26 look at tbe photo and judge for yourself!!! My 15 year old ordered the pasta with Alfredo and chicken. He barely saw any chicken as did my MIL in hers. In all it was forced gratuity which I don't mind if service and food is good. Save your money!!! This is NOT the Rigazzis I remember going to years ago.
The house salad was remarkable! Fresh romaine with green olives that gave it a little kick. Toasted ravioli were a bit different than other STL traditional toasted ravs - these were tiny little pockets of meat which seemed to be deep fried. Yum! The accompanying meat sauce was really spectacular! Tuttomari was less saucy than other STL dishes but had great flavor. Our server, Bex, was so cheerful and attentive!
I thought the food was good although some friends in my group were a little mixed on reviews of quality from previous visits. The server was wonderful, handled a group of eight all with separate bills without issue. We had one person in our group with health issues that needed gluten-free, she asked the server several times if the pizza she ordered truly was gluten-free and she was assured It was, but then did get sick afterwards so it was left uncertain as to whether it truly was. The ambience is true to the St Louis Hill, interior vintage and interesting. Would I return? I wouldn't necessarily seek it out on my own, but would go again with a group of friends if that was the selected place. We were going to shop nearby afterwards and they were very accommodating about allowing us to leave our cars in their parking lot.
If you're not coming for the fishbowls alone, what are you doinggg. Iconic. So much history in this place. So much character. You could spend hours just inspecting the decor. The food is the only thing keeping me from giving my full five stars, but they've been making some changes to their menu and chefs recently I hear, and each time I've been in here, I've had a better experience. Nevertheless a GREAT spot for drinks and hanging out on the Hill. The new high-top tables near the bar are prime for groups, either sitting or standing, and the patio is a great little vibe outside as well. I often come with a big group, but the service never suffers. Always quick, attentive, and gracious. Come for the vibes. It's history, it's the Hill, it's familia.
I got a to-go order here, the food was ready when I got there but I was missing some items so I had to wait for those. I wouldn't recommend to go as they didn't seem to have a very good system for this. I would stop by and have a drink here sometime, but overall the food was pretty average. The spaghetti didn't have enough sauce or flavor, but the meatballs were really good. Not your traditional toasted ravioli with breading, these reminded me of pie crust. Not bad, just different. The pizza was pretty good but it stuck to the box which had me prying the pizza out!
Was close to the Hill and looking for something to eat with the family. Rigazzi's was one of the few restaurants open for lunch and so glad we stopped by. Rigazzi's is a classic restaurant that serves all the dishes you expect as well as some STL ones we were excited to see. Server was quick to take our order and deliver drinks quickly. The Decor inside of Rigazzi's was pretty cool and provides an intimate and causal dining experience. Food was quick and no issues with seasoning or taste, and reasonable prices. Will be back to Rigazzi's, as Sunday is usually a great time for lunch in the Hill. Give them a try!
The food was average. We did have some good mushrooms as an appetizer. The waiters were attentive but at times seemed unorganized with running food out or forgetting to bring drinks . We did have lots of left overs . The fish bowls drinks are pretty novel.!
We made a reservation for a large group awhile in advance for Father's Day. Unfortunately, we still had to wait outside in the heat for at least 20 minutes. They told us it was because our waitress was stuck in traffic. Once we were seats, the service was okay. The food was delicious. I really liked the chicken spedini.
One of the best pastas I've ever had and I'm pretty picky with pasta! First of all, I love that this has a more casual/relaxed vibe compared to other restaurants in the Hill. Parking is easy with a small lot behind and plenty of street parking around the Hill. The inside was spacious with a lot of indoor seating. Came here on a Friday around 5pm and we were seated right away. Service was good and pretty fast. The toasted ravioli and classic wings were good, but the highlight was the salsiccia diavolo! The sauce actually had a spicy kick to it which was perfect (I feel like restaurants don't usually make it that spicy and I have to add crushed red pepper to make it spicier) and ended up tasting even better the next day when I had leftovers. Can't wait to try the other pasta dishes as I've only heard good things!
The side dish of roasted vegetables are AWESOME! They should be a choice on the menu! All the veggies are fresh and cooked in a delicious wine sauce.

Got the lobster ravioli, better than expected. Not overly salted. Cooked well. Plenty of flavor and protein in each. Got chicken in addition. Passing through and wanted to check this out, it did not disappoint. There is a parking lot as well as street parking. Venue itself has history so lots of cool things to look at and some large tvs inside. There is a bar as well. Staff was friendly. We will be back, happy eating! read more
We had a late dinner at Rigazzi's the other night, we stopped in and got some Italian Margaritas, two appetizers (forgot the pictures!) flash fried spinach (fresh!) and the toasted raviolis which are my favorite! Let's start by talking about the old school little Italy Italian charm of this place. Our host was great he got us to a nice cold area (it was really hot out) and made us feel at home. Our waiter was nice and he recommended the chicken spiedini- which we didn't get , but appreciate him recommending his favorite dish! We ordered the Veal Rigazzi's and Cannelloni with white sauce. The veal was perfectly cooked and perfectly portioned. The cannelloni had great flavor. read more

We had a beautiful bridal shower in their banquet room and our server, Bob, was kind, helpful and made us feel so welcome! Thank you, Bob!!! The food was wonderful and the atmosphere was perfect! My only recommendation would be to insist on a contract or something in writing when booking - we had a bit of a snafu with the banquet manager, Jeff, a week before the shower that caused a bit of stress. However, we worked it out and he did take care of us. It was a beautiful day!! read more

Lunch specials are a good value. For one we chose a chicken Caesar salad. It was large but not too large with plenty of chicken. More importantly, it wasn't overly sauced and lettuce was fresh. The other meal was parmaciano with fried broccoli, creamy Italian soup, snd a small house salad. The meat patty had the flavor and consistency of a meatball covered with cheese and a red sauce. The breaded broccoli was overcooked with a light burnt taste. The soup and salad were excellent. Service was a little distant. There wasn 't immediate follow-up after meal delivery, drinks weren't refilled, and I had to ask for the bill. read more

A great place to go if you're wanting pasta on the Hill. I would recommend this place if you're wanting something a little more casual and affordable. They also usually have a short wait for tables because their dining room is so large and service is quick. We got seated after a ten minute wait on a Friday night. I've had great experiences before. This visit the kitchen lost our ticket so we waited an hour for food but the wait staff was nice and gave us a great discount which we were very pleased about. We didn't even have to ask or complain about the wait for them to offer the fix for us. Food is always good. The house red wine is also delicious. read more

A wonderful spot to grab a bite in the hill. Very kid friendly and always desired when we are near. Great pizza and you can't go wrong with a fish bowl. Many great restaurants on the hill and Riggazis ranks in the top for how kid friendly and food that is family friendly. Keep up the good work. read more

My sister bought several cannoli for a holiday dinner. They had about 1 inch of filling in each end, empty in the middle! The filling was more like cake icing than the traditional ricotta cheese filling. Shameful!! read more

Is the pizza still good after change in ownership?
Was not happy with it when I was in there a few weeks ago. Very undercooked in the middle and soggy
