Oh my. This is absolutely amazing. The fresh Caprese salad is so dang delicious. The lasagna, fresh bread and sausage potato pepper mix… yummy This place is a bit better than Rex Italian deli in Chicago, and believe me, their food is tops… But this place would be my go to place if I didn’t live so far away…

One of the best spots in the county. Everything is made well and the owner is great. I’ve never had a bad meal here and I’ve been coming here for over a decade.

Rigatony’s has the best steaks and food ever! The filets just melt away with the best taste you ever will have! All meats are prime AAA by my point of view. Never had anything like it in the world! It’s also a pleasure visiting these great Italian people. Try it — you will wish you lived here too!

I highly recommend. The service is friendly and welcoming. The food is fresh and delicious. The lasagna is great. I have tried the cheese, the meat and the spinach lasagna(all on different visits) and you can’t go wrong with any choice. I have also ordered full lasagnas and a platter of sausage and peppers and rolls when we wanted to have good food at our house for a crowd after playing in the sun all day. The kids spaghetti and meatballs was massive and my kids loved. For starters, the bruschetta is my recommendation.

Visiting this place was like time traveling back to the late 50’s — early 60’s. A small family owned and operated Italian restaurant and deli. Staff was friendly, in a non pretentious way — like talking to your neighbors. On our first visit we were treated like we had been going there for years. Nothing artificial here. Food was incredible. Like Sunday dinner at an Italian home. Service in the restaurant was a bit helter-skelter, but that only made the visit more enjoyable. Bought a ton of stuff in the deli — I highly recommend their homemade sausage, and the pasta sauce was great. Definitely deserves a visit.

Although a far drive from my home in Milwaukee, so worth it! My Italian family has been ordering food from here for years. The Italian beef is out of this world! Not a real big place, but big enough, plus the full it with only the best foods! All of their salads are delicious, their meats are beautiful, and their giardiniera is the absolute best. Bought 3 jars– addictive(it’s a must on a brat).

I love this place. The owners are nice, fun and friendly. Great authentic Italian food. The homemade sausage is amazing, I get nostalgic every time I go in there. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t recommend.

Our family ordered some food for a party, and when we went to pick it up, I was so amazed at the service and huge selection of food items available here! They were so nice and everything on display looked amazing. Everything we ordered was ready when they said it would be, and when we took it home and served it, everyone was very happy with it. Very tasty! The portions were very generous too. We will definitely use them again for our large family!

We cry everytime they close for a bit in the winter… Love love love their food!!! Authentic and they cater too! Have to get something from the meat case if you go there. I’ve brought home their frozen mushroom ravioli before too. Yummy!

Best Italian in the entire area! I can rave about rigatonys enough been going here for years and it’s the been the same amazing quality ever time I go! If you are in the lake Geneva, lake delevan area it is a MUST stop! Owners /employees are always super friendly and super helpful make you feel like part of the family whether you’re a regular or just stopping in for the first time! I wish there was a 5 star + because rigatonys deserves it.

This place is awesome! If driving anywhere near Rigatony’s make a detour and stop in for some if the best Italian food anywhere. Incredible hot dishes available from one deli counter; cold items and meats available from another. Oh, and don’t forget the dessert case! I’ve been there twice — both trips were great. You can’t find a better fast-casual place to have a meal — it will rival(more likely surpass) anything you’ve ever had from far fancier and much higher priced Italian restaurants.

A friend recommended this deli/restaurant and the Unilocal reviews sealed the deal. All we can say is «yum!» The Italian beef was some of the best we’ve had in years. The grilled chicken salad was absolutely delicious. Friends drive up just to get the Italian sausage or trays of pasta. Only one disappointment — the cookies were dry and tastless.

This place has phenominal home cooked Italian food and a wide variety of meats, cheeses and other deli items. The only reason I can’t give 5 stars is because the prices are a little steep.

I was in charge of dinner for a Women’s Retreat that I recently attended in Delavan, WI. Not knowing of any caterers in the area, naturally I came to Unilocal for help! The place that someone else helping to plan the retreat mentioned was not rated very well on Unilocal,so I took a leap of faith in my fellow Unilocalers and because of the great reviews I decided to try Rigatony’s. I ordered 2 pans of spinach lasagna to supplement the other food we were having for the dinner. The delivery driver from Rigatony’s delivered our order exactly when they said they would. The spinach lasagna was excellent! Everyone loved it, and I basked in the compliments on the excellent dinner all night.

My family had dinner here on a Thursday night. They close at 6pm, and we got there at 5:20. We had just enough time to order at the counter and sit at a table. Another couple came in at 5:35 and originally was told they would have to take their food out, but then they manager came around and gave the OK for them to stay and eat. The whole atmosphere was«let’s make the customers happy». The food was very good. We had a couple of paninis. My son(11 years old) ordered lasagna, and the slab they brought was massive, enough for him to bring home and have for lunch the next day. My daughter asked for a kid’s meal spaghetti, and they emptied the pot of noodles onto her plate. I guess it was the end of the day and they figured it was better to serve the food they had than to throw it away. Overall, a very friendly, relaxed dinner for 5 for under $ 40. I would highly recommend it, but make sure you get there by 5:15 if you want to eat-in.

Things offered are above average. My only complaint is they push too much stuff on you. If you order a pound of something you typically get 30% extra. Good salesman but I have a limit to what I can buy. I know a lady who wanted to spend a $ 100 and ended up spending $ 300. She could not say no and they tend to really push the stuff at you. Us locals have different pocket books than their Illinois followers. Be careful about what you buy but the offerings are 1st class!

OMG!!! The food is off-the-charts outstanding! Everything is absolutely delicious, like eating in an Italian home. They make whatever they make, and that’s what’s available in the hot display case. When it’s gone — it’s gone.(They do have tables, both inside and out — so you can buy your dinner and sit down to eat.) My favorite is the spinach lasagna. Along with dinner, they have a huge selection of Italian cookies, cakes and other desserts. I love the many biscotti’s. My kids’ favorite is the raspberry filled cookies. This is the only place we eat at when we take our annual Lake Geneva vacation during the 4th of July weekend. It’s a little nuts, but if we are in town for 3 – 4 days, we will basically eat here every day. During this last vacation, we were trying to find a different restaurant, but after googling the options, there was nowhere else we wanted to go. The owners and staff are all wonderful too, very personable.

Rigatony’s is always a treat to visit and I always wind up stocking up on Italian treats whenever I visit. For years our Christmas dinner has been topped off with their tiramesu which is one of my favorites around. More recently I have been doing takeout from them and catered sausage, peppers and potato’s for a party that everyone raved about. I’m loyal to my butcher in Whitewater(Hi Dan!) but their meats look good. Be sure to check out their freezer case for homemade pasta and sauce(or do you say«gravy?».

Rigatony’s is an Italian gem in the Southern Wisconsin region. It’s not a typical sit-down restaurant, since they do a lot of whole-sale and catering events; however, they do have some tables and chairs to dine-in and listen to Sinatra who seems to constantly be serenading the customers. Tiramisu has been my long-time favorite dessert. The first time I walked into Rigatony’s I asked about their Tiramisu. When I was informed that it was going to be the best I had ever tried I was skeptical, but charmed by the owner’s confidence. He was right. One of the sweetest birthday presents I ever received was from my partner who shipped an entire sheet-cake of Rigatony’s Tiramisu wrapped up, stored in dry ice, and sent across country to where I was living in Colorado. I stored it in the freezer and within a month I had the entire thing eaten. Whenever I visit Delavan, I insist on a trip to Rigatony’s. Their sauces are delicious, their staff is helpful and warm, and they never fail to impress. Don’t forget that they are closed Sundays and Mondays – I’ve disappointed my stomach many-a-times.
