"Excellent food and service. We went with another couple and we enjoyed every appetizer, salad, entree and desert that we had. Reasonably priced also."

"Read the review in the Stamford Magazine. Liked the fact that it's a family owned restaurant, and there are 4 in CT - so it's not a national chain. We tried it for the first time last Sat. night with another couple. Some interesting drinks, that we hadn't heard of before, and we eat out often. Enjoyed the food, especially the dish recommended by our server--the cavatelli with pesto and grilled chicken. We all had to have dessert, and were not disappointed. Nice touch, to offer a complimentary home made limoncello after coffee. We'll be back!"

"Best Calamari I’ve had in years. They kind of let you sit there a long time when they first seat you. They weren’t that busy that someone couldn’t come by with water and a hi I’ll be with you shortly, but after that everything was great, food was delish!"

"Our first meal at Rizzuto's was very memorable. Our food was excellent, the service was great, and the wine which we selected (from a terrific and very reasonably-priced list) was superb. We expect to return frequently."

"I took my son, here, for his final night of Spring Break. We had delicious Mussels, and Fried Calamari, for appetizers, and Sunday Sauce with fettucine for me, BBQ chicken pizza for him for main courses. A delicious, very reasonably priced Montepulciano was a terrific accompaniment for me.The food is great, fresh, and the service is outstanding. The waitstaff handles kids with great aplomb."

"Nice antipasti options. The meatballs may be the best I have eaten. The house made marinara is really good and a nice 'dip' with the crusty italian bread they serve They use good Italian ingredients and the prices make this restaurant an excellent value. It is a great addition to the Stamford dining scene."

"The food was really great but it took a long time for the food to come out. It was busy but nothing over the top so not sure why we had to wait about 40 minutes for dinner."
