Rizzuto's Wood-Fired Kitchen & Bar

My wife and I have been coming here for a while now and the past few visits have been the same. While I have never had an issue with the friendliness of the staff, it is hard not to feel anxious watching everyone running every which way in the restaurant. My wife enjoyed her chicken parm and arugula salad, but my pork chop was way over cooked. Unfortunately, I don't think we will be rushing back here anytime soon.

My friends meet there for happy hour. The food is spectacular and the service (by Kelly, who tends bar and all the tables) is superb. My only complaint is you changed the ginger beer in the Bethel mule recently and it is truly terrible. Please change back! I make these at home and I threw the Reeds I bought out!

1st time here and would have to say I was pleased by how helpful they were. This place is a good place for dinner or happy hour. They have a decent selection of craft beers and wine. I would be coming back here again next time I'm in the area.

This is one of the better (maybe the best) Italian restaurants on the east coast. The food is so fresh and good. Everything is delicious, I have never been disappointed with anything I have gotten. The last time I was there I got a cheese plate (they had a great selection, they were all delicious) my husband got pesto tortellini, and I got the pear argula salad. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend going here, you will not be disappointed.

Their North Beach Pizza with clams.

It's culinary perfection.

Many of their dishes are absolutely delicious. Almost every single one we've sampled, has been worth eating completely or taking home for leftovers.

The main drawback is the time you sit there, waiting for your food to come out. It's the kitchen staff. Time and time again, we debate going, not because of the food... We LOVE their food... We just don't want to sit and sit and sit for the food to come out.

But that North Beach pizza with clams keeps pulling us back!
