We had a great brunch here - the menu is creative; food was excellent; value was good; staff was friendly and attentive.
The restaurant is well located in a cool part of town.
The outdoor seating area is well shaded and comfortable - you can even see the National Civil Rights Museum.
It was a comfortable brunch - our server was friendly, attentive, and gave us good space.
As an added bonus, Chef Michael Patrick came by to say hi - very friendly and down to earth.
Great all around experience.
Had a great meal. Friendly staff. Randi was our server and she hit it out of the park. We started with the Sasage and cheese plate and the Cheeseburger soup (OMG), then moved on to the Veggie Plate, the Chicken Pot Pie (ridiculously good), and my favorite the CHORIZO MEATLOAF!!! Dessert was on point, we had all three, the Strawbery Cake, the Sour Cream Cheesecake, and the Bluberry Bread Pudding. The cake was incredible, just the right crumb to the cake and the sauce was spot on , and I am not a fan of strawberry cake but I am now. The cheesecake was NOT the dense brick I have come to expect when dining out. It was reminiscent of a NY cheesecake, light, creamy, perfect. The Bread pudding.... do yourself a favor and go there now. It is that good. I couldn't put the spoon down. Yes we took the leftovers home. Lunch today's was fantastic. Thank you to the staff at Rizzo's.
Just one word AMAZING!!!!
This was our first time coming to Rizzo’s and I will say it was incredible from our super attentive waiter to the delicious food that the whole table was raving about.
We all (party of 7)ordered different items an each and every single one of the dishes tasted great.
The desserts were all great but the winner was the blue berry bread pudding! The whole table votes for it to be #1. Nevertheless all of them were so good that we did not even took a picture of them. *My husband adored his chocolate mousse.
I could go on and on about how amazing our dinner was but just go and try it for yourselves.
Went out during monthly “last friday of the month” music/jam. this place is absolutely fire. james, our server, was total character and just the belle of the night. He kept us and the other customers super entertained with his sass and his genuineness. Thoroughly enjoyed the night with our family & friends. Food, Drinks and Dessert were to die for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO TRY THIS PLACE IF YOU ARE VISITING OR LIVING HERE IN MEMPHIS!
Suasage & Cheese plate, lobster Pronto pups, Beef stew, Grit & Grind ball, hemp seed encrusted salmon. Always amazing. Highly recommend this place. Perfect for date night.
A super friendly local recommended this place. We tried it and we're not disappointed. The atmosphere is comfy meets chic. The building and decor are both simple and beautiful. Our server, Randi, was so friendly and kind and gave some great recommendations.The brisket po boy was delish! Super messy but worth every napkin! Those pickled onions made that whole sandwich for me! And that bread pudding is worth the four hour drive back to Memphis for us!! Hats off to Chef Michael Patrick! He deserves a mouth kiss for that bread pudding! No joke. Too good!!! We'll definitely be back next time we're in town!
I decided to give this place a second chance. This time was for brunch and I have to say it was delicious. I had the scramble egg and my friend the catfish Benedict’s which were delicious. Our drinks were fantastic and the bread pudding was incredibly tasty without being too sweet. Service was great too.
This was an amazing Brunch! I had the Southern Eggs Benedict and it was so fresh and flavorful. The eggs were perfection and the pork was tender and full of flavor, the hollandaise was what put it over the top.
The southern pecan old fashioned was also excellent and all at a great value. I will definitely be back the next time I'm traveling through Memphis.
Keep it going Michael!! You have something very special here.
We had our department holiday lunch here and it was wonderful! I had a very nice mixed greens starter salad with a sweet but very light dressing. The main meal was salmon on a bed of spinach with mango dressing. Dessert was their famous bread pudding yum yum yum yum 😋. Match that wonderful food with excellent and friendly service and you have a big winner in my book!
Here’s another top notch restaurant folks!! I ordered the AWARD WINNING Chicken Pot Pie!!! And it was absolutely deserving of any award that comes its way!!! The Chicken Pot Pie had pulled chicken, Andouille Sausage, Mixed Vegetables and a flaky, buttery Puff Pastry on the top!! I will NEVER eat regular chicken pot pie again!! That’s a promise huney!! I also ordered the Slow Roasted Beef Brisket served with Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Brisket Demi and Roasted Brussel Sprouts. The brisket was tender and the potatoes were cooked to perfection!! It was even better the next day!! The last entree I ordered was the Sautéed Buttered Shrimp served with a White Wine Butter Sauce, Cheddar Grits and Sautéed Spinach. Everything was deliciously perfect!! PERFECT!!
