Warm, welcoming service - especially appreciated on a winter's evening - and a genuine feeling of neighborliness are touches missing in so many restaurants. Rigatoni has this quality that takes you through the meal and beyond; it's always a fond and cozy memory that brings us back for the last 10 years. The food - appetizers, warm bread, main dishes, and proudly displayed desserts - are excellent. Noise level is always fine. Here, you can talk!

Food is excellent from appetizer to desert. The service is fast & very friendly. It is family run so you have that "old fashioned" Italian feel from the owners. Although some might not acquire a taste for the directness of one of the owners, my family and I, however, find him extremely delightful!. The chef special creations are delicious. I am somewhat critical of food as I have great cooks in my family, you will not be disappointed!

Very noisey small place with tables on top of each other. Food was good but the owner refused to honor a restaurant.com certificate even though the waiter was showed it prior to ordering. He was very rude and tried to blame restaurant.com for the mistake. I would not recommend this place with or without a discount. There are too many good italian restaurants in the area.

Good Pelham italian

We go here for the neighborhood feel more than the food. The waitress remembers you after a few times, and the "old Pelham" crew is always out in force. This is not trendy or local/sustainable food, but it's delicious for what it is--big cheesy lasagnas, peppery tomato sauces, inexpensive wines you can drink without discussing.

Parking is not good. The desserts are nothing special. The entrees are excellent

Solid, dependable if unexceptional.
