We go once in awhile to eat and love the homemade bread and enjoy our meals. Server always friendly. This visit was just normal store bought Italian bread that wasn’t anything special. Food wasn’t as good as usual either. Worst part was cook constantly cursing and yelling in the kitchen, quite often at the poor server. Won’t be going back for awhile if at all.

The Owner or the cook terrible attitude, yelling at the waitress in front of customers. He definitely has anger issues and needs to take anger management. Felt bad for that lady that works there. Definitely not a place to go. He should sell the place he doesn't know how to treat his employees.

Chicken Parm Grinder was dry and tasted like if it was made with Chef Boyardee. An 11 dollar dry cardboard sandwich.The atmosphere was not welcoming and felt like I walked into a prison. Cook kinda glanced at me and gave me a dirty look. I was handed the box of food without offering a bag nor napkins. Skipping this place next time. I can cook better at home.

Great family restaurant have been a patron there for almost 25 years. The food is great and very reasonably priced.

Buyer beware, I called in an order of wing’s as they are listed on the menu added on some blue cheese. Shocker when I get home and find plain overcooked meatless wings. I called to question that they were plain(wasn’t given options) the woman laughed and said I didn’t ask for buffalo. To top that off my chicken parm grinder was on soft bread I suppose I should have asked for that to be toasted in the oven. I’ll never go back.

We ordered takeout; wings, chicken Parmesan grinder and a turkey and bacon wrap. I wish there was one good thing I can say but sadly there isn’t. We tried this restaurant a few years ago and it wasn’t good; however we thought we would try it again. Wings were plain, no sauce - barely any meat on the bones. Turkey and bacon wrap was greasy and impossible to eat and chicken parm grinder was bland! When we called to question about the wings the girl laughed into the phone. They couldn’t even do a decent job on the fries. In addition to all of that; it was a 45 min wait and there wasn’t a single person in the restaurant so you’d think they could have given more attention to our order. Very disappointing all around.

I've always made the hour drive to come here for years to have their amazing pasta but today was the worst experience I've ever had. The moment we walked in the door, the guy in the kitchen threw his arms up and started complaining. I brushed this off as nothing major and sat down to wait for the waitress. While doing so, one of the guys in the kitchen kept arguing with the waitress in front of everyone and complaining about the smallest little things. The waitress eventually came over and brought over the warm bread they usually serve but it was cold. I noticed the same guy kept badgering her so I decided not to question it. While waiting for our food, he kept raising his voice and throwing things around in the kitchen which was very uncomfortable to watch, to say the least. I have never seen such lack of respect for a person in an establishment and quickly lost my appetite. It's sad to see that such a long standing establishment shows no sense of decorum or respect in front of their guests, let alone their staff. After waiting for over an hour for our food, we decided to leave. As I approached the counter, I saw the guy in question handle our food with his bare hands. I highly recommend the health department look into this further.

No good quality of the ingredients. Expected a better food, but disappointed. It's better to get your food from a hot bar in a supermarket rather than this restaurant

They're calzones are to die for !! Hands down the best CALZONE I've tasted in a long time. I got sausage and pepperoni. With ricotta and mozzarella cheese and a delicious sauce...makes my mouth water just thinking about it. If your looking for a good CALZONE then you have to try theirs !!

I cannot give ANY stars to this restaurant. I went there tonight with my husband hoping for the same great quality of food we have been so used to every time we come here. We had not been here since a few years ago, but knew we always had never had a bad experience or a bad meal. There was nobody in there, but we thought it was because we were there early. I ordered Zuppa Di Pesce, and my husband ordered sausage, broccoli, and cavatelli. We waited over 45 minutes for our entrees. My clams were not open and there were not any scallops, which were listed on the menu. I never was told of the omission until after and was told they had no scallops, so they gave me extra mussels. Poor restaurant etiquette! My husband's cavatelli was so overdone you could mash it with a fork. When the waitress asked us how it was we were honest. She told the cook who yelled "that's the way cavatelli is cooked". The cherry on this crappy experience is the bill was $91.25! Two entrees and two glasses of wine! The Zuppa was $50 dollars alone! Another couple came in while we were there and ordered sodas. They were told they were all out of soda. WILL NEVER GO HERE AGAIN! Several of my family and friends have gone here. I guess I need to make a lot of calls to warn them of the "change" at Rizvani's.
