We did take out from Lil Rizzo's while staying in the area. We ordered pizza and wings. Our order was ready on time, the staff that waited on us were professional and very pleasant. The pizza was very well made and tasty with a thin crust. The wings were very good, well spiced and meaty (some of the larger wings... More

This was our first time eating at lil' rizzos and we were very pleased. Our waitress was wonderful, and our food came out very quickly. I had the fettucini con broccoli and the husband and kids had pizza. We all loved our food, and had a lot to take home for leftovers. We will definitely be back

I first dined at this restaurant in March, '12 during the week I spent at a relative's annual 1-week timeshare. We returned again this March and HAD to visit Lil Rizzo's for an evening meal. Our entree's were very flavorful and our server was friendly and professionally efficient. Two nights later I ordered a take-out pizza which was really good,... More

This is a great place to eat with a wonderful signature salad! After having the rolls and the salad you don't need anything else!

We wanted to try something local and near our resort so we stopped here. My overall opinion was "meh". Certainly not a bad meal, yet certainly nothing special. Service is where this place shines. Friendly and attentive staff. Really well done here. Food came fast, but mostly because it was undercooked. Had mozzarella sticks for an appetizer but needed longer... More

Tyler, I'm sorry the food you were served didn't match the level of service. Hopefully you brought the cold cheese sticks to the managers attention, we like to fix any problem on the spot. Also, I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that our sauces are all made from scratch and we use locally sourced organic... More

Yes ( as already recommended ) You wanna have Stephanie as your server. She's on the ball, gets your drinks and food quick and she's cute too! Any way the food: The food is as good as any thing the St. Louis Hill area has to offer. Great thin-crust pizza, wings, pasta. I have been eating here for 20+ years.... More

If you are on this side of the lake, Please go see Stephanie at this location. She is the best server ever. And the food is also good.

I should have written this review years ago. We own a second home at Lake of the Ozarks off of Horseshoe Bend - just a very short distance from our residence. We have been eating at this restaurant for somewhere between 15 and 20 years. Still going back all the time - that should say something right there. We usually... More

Met friends for lunch and wasn't even hungry after a late breakfast so hubby and I decided to split the lunch special pizza. It was $6 w/ your choice of 5 toppings for $6. It was good but their salad is excellent, wished I'd had gotten my own instead of splitting it. The waiter was friendly and accommodating.

Ate here with my son, and parents. The food was great. My parents each ordered pasta and were able to have enough left over for another meal. Dinner rolls were great. For being in the off season this place was packed, and made it difficult having my mom in a wheelchair, it was a tight squeeze. Not enough handicapped parking... More
