" Very disappointing experience. The food was average and lacked the pizzazz I’ve come to expect from a high-end seafood restaurant. The clam chowder wasn’t creamy enough, and the grilled fish was overcooked. Service was okay, but we waited quite a while for our meals to arrive. The atmosphere felt chaotic, perhaps due to the busy night, but I'd hoped for more. Perhaps a better day will yield a better experience? " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic evening out at Rizzuto’s! The lobster bisque was rich and creamy, definitely one of the best I’ve had. My wife loved her seafood pasta, and my children enjoyed their pizzas from the kids' menu. The service was prompt, and our server was kind and efficient. The outdoor igloo dining was also a thrilling experience! We’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place exceeded my expectations! I visited with my children, and everyone left happy. The service was top notch, and we tried a variety of dishes. The grilled chicken salad was refreshing, while the kids enjoyed the mac and cheese. We spent a lovely time with the ambiance supporting a great family outing. Highly recommend to others! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was pretty good, I was expecting a bit more pizazz for a restaurant of this caliber. The service was polite but sometimes inattentive. The ambiance was nice, but I felt the overall experience didn’t quite match the upscale expectations. However, they do have good seafood options if you're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! Rizzuto’s was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. The lobster rolls were incredibly fresh and packed with flavor. We also indulged in the seafood tower, which was a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a family dinner. Our server was attentive without being overbearing, and the cocktails were deliciously crafted. Overall, this restaurant has now become a family favorite that we will definitely revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Rizzuto’s is my go-to spot for family gatherings! We’ve celebrated multiple birthdays here, and each time the food has been consistently excellent. The lobster rolls are always a favorite, and I can't sing enough praises for the service — the staff truly makes you feel welcomed. The atmosphere is both lively and cozy, perfect for a group of any size. Looking forward to our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not the best experience. The food we tried was decent but not outstanding. I ordered the pasta, and it felt underseasoned, while the lobster roll was good but not exceptional. Service was friendly, and the atmosphere was nice, but overall, we were hoping for more variety and flavor. It felt a bit overrated to me. " (*Curated Review*)
