What People Are Saying About Rizzo's Restaurant & Pizzeria

In Short
Glenside's bi-level spaghetti-and-meatballs joint has been the training ground for hundreds of adolescents who have been serving families and listening to the same oldies radio station since 1946. Folks go for hoagies and hamburgers, eggplant parmigiana and chicken cacciatore. But the smart ones come for the pies. Not the thick-crusted Sicilian variety (which has its merits) but Rizzo's all-American version of the Italian classic--it's the crust that wins over pizza lovers.

Used to be the place to go for pizza back in the day, but the restaurant has changed ownership several times, and now it isn't run by Italians. Sadly, the old charm, taste and quality has been in the transition.

I used to love either running over to Rizzo's or ordering for a quick dinner as they had the best pasta. Recently things have changed. Service has gone downhill, the food is overcooked or wrong when the order gets to your home. I can't say I'd recommend anymore as things have definitely changed...

The business was sold and the pizza and food went downhill. Always overcooked and they changed the sauce. I heard the old owners were coming back. I hope so!
