Ragazzi Bistro Italiano

Checked this restaurant out for the first time and was really happy I did. Very friendy staff. especially loved that the kitchen staff greeted us and said thank you when we left. Charming little place .The food was tasty and it was a nice atmosphere. They have gluten free options as well.

I haven’t been to Ragazzi for well over a decade. I remembered it as a decent pizza restaurant. My daughter happens to live nearby so we went there. On a 1-10 rating, service was about 5. Not really bad but not good. We reserved a table for 6 and when we arrived we were sat near the kitchen and the front door where everybody stands when they come for pick up etc.. We were told there were no other options. We ordered a large salad which we were told could be shared by up to 4 people. They delivered a smaller salad, apologized, quickly threw in some more Iceberg lettuce and brought it back. Daughter requires gluten free options (Celiac) and they have them and I did not hear a complaint. Pizza toppings are fine and plenty of options. Maybe they had an “off night but the pizza crust was memorable for how ungood it was. Almost like a ready made crust. I theorized that because my daughter asked for gluten free pasta, they gave the rest of us gluten free crust? Don’t get me wrong, I ate plenty and enjoyed it. But I am not raving about the food, not over the top about the service so it’s sort of OK. the place has been around for more than 20 years and everybody has an off night.
