The Risotto House - Rutherford

Excellent wholesome food. Highly recommend you get your moneys worth.

It has been many years since we last visited this place. It was for Father's Day, since my husband loved risotto.This time around, as luck would have it, we were only five minutes away (having just ended with our son's baseball game). We stopped by for Mother's Day dinner. The place was busy, but luckily we were able to get a table for five once we got in. It was a nice small space that had two sections. And, the hostess and staff were nice and attentive.It took a few minutes for our food to come out, but when it did, the staff were quick and helpful. They also provided warm baked bread and butter.The food was really delicious. My mother-in-law really enjoyed her stuffed mushrooms as did we with our own dishes.Definitely a great place to try if you're in the area.As an FYI, there is a 4% additional charge of paying by credit card, and 20% gratuity for parties of five or more people. And it is street parking.

The worst service ever. Super old and outdated inside. Save your time and money. Never again.

Risotto was fine but not extraordinary. A trip to Venice could bring the chef up to speed.

Hello my foodies. I went here with my coworkers to celebrate our company Xmas dinner in Jan! Better late than never. My friend recommended this place and it was a good place. It's small, but well lit and very friendly atmosphere. The owners daughter was our host and server along with some other very nice staff. It was a Wednesday so it was very quiet in the restaurant. Probably one of their slower days, but we were fine without the crowds. Everything we ordered was great, except the pasta fagoli soup I had. It wasn't terrible, but the broth had no flavor. I still ate it, though, because my Dr. says to cut back on the salt anyway. It was still passable! Everything else was great, and they even let you BYOB, and they let us bring in a small cake. My friends wanted to re-do my birthday cake since the last place I went to was awful! I'll update you on that place in a moment! I had the penne vodka with chicken. I love penne vodka, but I find it hard to find a place that makes it good. This place made it very well. Delicious! I recommend this place as they have a great variety of items to choose from, true Italian style dishes. We had a wonderful time here. And it's not bad on your pocketbook either. If you're in the area, stop by and check it out. Parking is on the street. Meters are done by 7pm.
