Rigatoni's Restaurant - Castro Valley

It's kinda pricy but I have to say, I'm at least never disappointed with the main entrees. Bread isn't bad and if you dine in, you have access to more bread. They have a soda fountain as well. I'm not particularly impressed by the dessert plus there's several other really good dessert places nearby.

The service is pretty quick and the staff is super friendly. I have no issues here.

The restaurant is a good size, decent space between tables so it never feels too crowded, even when it's filled with customers. Nice big windows so it feels open but there's also outdoor seating. The space is generally clean, including the bathrooms.

My issue with this area (which isn't the restaurant's fault) is the parking. It's a very popular area so fighting for parking is pretty normal.

Overall, I really like this place. If my family and I need a quick Italian fix, it's our go-to!

Wow!!! One of the best pasta spots I've tried in the Bay Area since a long time ago! Food feels homey and I like the bread we could get refills on or get refills for fountain soda, has a vibe of Fresh Choice. I look forward to coming back!!! 🍝

I ordered through doordash. The food portions are laughably small for the price I payed. I normally don’t leave reviews but this is just so pathetic. The photos I posted were of the spaghetti and meatballs… there were 2 meatballs. Are we rationing??? I didn’t realize that was happening lol

What type of Italian restaurant doesn't have oregano? The lasagna was good. The chicken fettuccini was okay.

We really appreciate the heat and serve options! I’m visiting my aunt but we also have kids traveling with us and these meals save us for dinner a couple of times. The reason I knocked off a star is that sometimes without our to go orders, they are out of bread. When the bread is included in the price and comes with the meal automatically but we don't receive it, it is a real bummer especially with feeding kids. But if you pick up before 7pm, they usually have bread. But without it, it feels like a waste of money and unfair to charge the regular full price.

Had lunch on a Saturday. We ordered 3 different dishes and enjoyed all 3 of them. Recommended.

Absolutely Awesome

Always consistent and what you would expect. The service here is very genuine and friendly.

Jeffrey the Cashier greeted us with a smile. We ordered The Salmon with House Spaghetti & garlic bread. It was 😋 Delicious. I will be back. A Nice treat from a friend ☺️.💯

Great service, very welcoming

Service was great, restaurant seemed nice, Fettuccine was plain and tasted like warm cream :) no depth, maybe add more parm, or garlicor parlsey, or anything thatll make give it aome body.

Me and my wife moved to the area and wanted to try something new, we got food to go.

Would not recommend to anyone. Our food was somehow half cooked. It looked like they had coldish sauce in the bottom of the to go dish and then put old pasta on top.

The garlic bread was a big disappointment as well. It’s like how do you mess that up.

I might have to go back tomorrow and ask for my money back. Possibly the worst thing I’ve ever gotten at a restaurant.
