At 630 pm Via open table arranged 715 time,, called by hostess heads-up running late asked about possible accepting later time which was fine with us, glad we arrived at 8 and hostess very accommodating; offered us table in dining room or the lounge which was quieter with college football on with volume off and fireplaces warm. Waiter and hostess very attentive; we split fig pizza slightly sweet and perfectly made, and seafood with risotto which had abundant well cooked seafood and of course perfect risotto. Negronis were excellent and reasonably priced. We had a pleasant evening of conversation, food, football and great service. Great place to eat.

The food at Risottos is excellent and well priced. The cocktails are a bit skimpy for the price and the restaurant has a dingy dark look. The service is slow and your food will be delivered by someone other than your wait person. "Who got the lasagna?" Is very Appleby like. Why do I go there? Strictly for the food.

Food was mediocre. Lacked flavor and practically tasteless. Dessert was overbaked. The service started out well but got terrible as the experience wore on. This place and MPR restaurants are living off their reputation and have declined rapidly. Can't say I would return.

Rizotto’s is a wonderful restaurant! Top shelf staff! Friendly, helpful, amazing! Food was of great quality! My only issue was the lack of handicapped accessible seating the tables were so close together I couldn't get my walker through without having another patron have to stand up and move thier chair!! I had to use restroom and had to walk without walker because it was so narrow which was a huge liability!! I almost fell on some spilled water I suggest leaving at least one table open on the edge of dining room and mark it like a.spot in the parking lot which there was only 1 of should be more. I hope these issues are addressed because they could result in a serious injury and lawsuit!

We went for our anniversary and was not aware that it was restaurant week. It was a tad slow but given the crowd they did an excellent job! Food was great. It was our first time there and we will definitely go back!
