    Cheesy Bread
    Sammy T.

    New Menu , taken 4/26/22
    Aman S.

    Pleasantly surprised by this RIGATONIS. This is behind Guns Fishing & other Stuff. Tons of parking .Pretty simple menu- they have fettuccine,Lasagna, tortellini, salads, spaghetti all the Italian staples. Pretty flavorful. Have a two flavor sliced bread bar with butter containers for spreading . The drinks are unlimited but the ice and the root beer was just as tasteful as I'd say a McDonald's beverage machine. No joke. You pay at the counter register then go grab your utensils napkins etc. salt pepper and chili red flakes are already at the tables . The place is never busy and there is plenty of seating . I think the main issue with this place is that the location is pretty hidden. The menu is kid friendly . The spinach tortellini I had was not bad just enough for a filling lazy lunch . Only like 1-2 persons here working here but they were very friendly . The shades are down and make this place look dull , closed and uninviting. However it is open and people still go here. More of a like a family place. Yes I can probably make the entire menu items at home . The meal was like $24 w drink unlimited refills..not expensive but not cheap either. I will definitely try the lasagna or spaghetti next time when I'm craving pasta or Italian . I really hope this place doesn't close up shop. They do have catering and seem to advertise it a lot, I think that is the most popular service for their menu .

    Cajun pasta and garlic bread with a side of salad
    Elizabeth G.

    It's a hard pass for me Listen, if you want pasta, you are better off going to Olive Garden or going to an Italian restaurant in your downtown area. I ordered the Cajun Pasta with shrimp, and it felt like I was eating macaroni cheese. I ordered garlic bread on the side, and it was like plain cheese bread. I am very disappointed with the food. I only finished the side salad and left the rest of the food. $29 for everything, not worth it

    Lasagna
    Jessica S.

    Very unhappy, i feel like the food used to be of better quality. I spent about $30.00 for this lasagna and garlic bread. Very mediocre and just flavorless. There was no sauce, it was just dry and greasy.

    Pesto Chicken Pesto & Pine Nuts

    Our family is a regular patron at this restaurant. They offer great pasta and other entrée dishes. What I appreciate about them is their semi-service style; you order at the front counter, and they bring your food to the table. The restaurant is clean and organized, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Bread is complimentary, and the service is fast and friendly. Their pasta is always served hot straight from the open kitchen. I highly recommend this place!

    Large amount of the rib versus leafy greens in my Caesar Salad
    Cheryl W.

    I am once again rating Rigatoni's 1 star because of my experience with the Justin, the general manager. I went there yesterday and ordered a started Caesar Salad and he wanted to charge me an additional 10 cent for extra croutons and 10 cent for a bag. I have been a customer at Rigatoni's for years and I have never been charged extra for croutons or a bag. He told me the state requires them to charge for a bag, but this isn't true according to this information: In California, a fast food bag charge is typically 10 cents per bag due to the state's single-use carryout bag ban, which requires stores to charge a minimum of 10 cents for any paper bag provided at checkout; this applies to fast food restaurants as well. Rigatoni's has plastic bags, not paper bags, so they shouldn't be charging customers. Because I had a problem with him over charging me before, I usually go there on weekends when Justin is off. But he was there on Saturday and Malik and Chloe weren't there and they don't overcharge me. I did not purchase the Caesar Salad because i didn't want to be charged for extra croutons and a bag for my salad.

    Fettuccine Alfredo and Rigatoni Bolognese
    Cristina S.

    Rigatoni's used to be one of my family's go to restaurants. I haven't been here in a while but I recently went to try it out again. I got here around 6:30pm and the restaurant was pretty busy, but there was a decent amount of tables open. When we sat down at a table we noticed that there was a lingering oder in the back of the restaurant. I have a feeling this smell came from the bathroom, but it made me wonder if possibly the bathroom had not been cleaned recently. Obviously I moved tables because a bad smell would ruin your whole dining experience. I got the Rigatoni Bolognese ($17) and my brother got the Fettuccine Alfredo ($16). This is relatively higher than I remember it once being, so I was expecting a higher quality or bigger portion. There is an open bread counter where you can get unlimited bread, butter, and oil and balsamic. The food came out relatively quick. It was an okay size but the quality is more what I was skeptical about. In my opinion, the sauce for both both meals were watered down and lacked seasoning. It is almost as if they forgot to put the heavy whipping cream in it to actually turn the liquid into a sauce. If I were you I would save your money and go to a restaurant with a higher quality of pasta.

    Catering review. Picked up an order for a party of six.. The restaurant looks like its typical ambiance. Ordered Caesar salad, chicken Caesar salad, meatballs, chicken Alfredo, and garlic bread. Seems like food isn't as good as dining in. Usually rigatoni would be a favorite, but not this time around. The salad was probably the one thing I enjoyed the most. Then the meatballs would be the next popular. But the pan wasn't at least bottom full of meatballs. The Alfredo looked skimped on. Not even a quarter full of the pan. The bread was a bit stale. Seems to be that dining in is a better choice than ordering catered sizes to go.

    Cheese Ravioli
    Pratham D.

    You get a full service experience here as opposed to a casual eat. There is a complimentary bread bar that you can help your self to before your meal. The food comes out pretty quick and isn't the most fresh. However, the food does have a strong flavor profile which is a plus.

    Cheese ravioli with Alfredo in the forefront. In the background is garlic bread (to the left) and a Kid's spaghetti with Alfredo sauce.
    Stacie R.

    We've been here twice now and I really like this cute little Italian restaurant. It's just one big room, and you order at the counter, get yourself utensils napkins, bread and fountain soda and then sit down. They bring you your food shortly after. The food is really tasty. I got the cheese ravioli with Alfredo (garlic cream sauce) and it was delicious. I think there were 8-10 ravioli in my bowl, which I thought that was a good amount. They were soft and filled with tons of good cheese. The sauce was nice and thick and went well with the ravs. The one reason there's one star missing is both times we came, it seemed like something was missing or behind schedule in the self serve area, like the bread had ran out or there were no more utensils. We had to ask them to refill both of those and it's quite disruptive having to wait for a fork or when the kids are hungry and screaming for bread. I don't know how long those items were empty, but it seemed like a coincidence that both times we went this was the case, which led me to believe maybe it happens a lot. The other thing is it is a little on the expensive side for basically being self serve and also what you're getting I can't speak for the other menu items, only what I ordered. But would definitely come back for more!

    Spaghetti & Meatballs
    Juicke C.

    I was in the mood for pasta and didn't want anything extravagant so this place popped up. I think I had visit one in the past. Walking in, you place your order at the counter and food will be brought to your table. There's a self serving bread and refreshment counter. Wait person was friendly. The chef delivered my spaghetti and meatball. He circled back later to check my food. With spaghetti and meatball, it's a simple dish and it fit the bill. I might return to try their Mac and cheese.

    Best Experience I've Ever Had at a Restaurant…read more Today is one of the most important days of my life--I got married. I chose to celebrate this special moment with my wife and my daughter at Melo's in Walnut Creek, and I will never forget how they treated us. From the moment we walked in, the staff went above and beyond. The service was not just professional--it was genuinely kind, warm, and full of heart. They made us feel like family. What truly touched me is that they refused to charge us for our meal. In a world where everything is business, this level of generosity and humanity is rare. It wasn't just about the food (which was amazing, by the way), it was about the way they made us feel on a day that means everything to me. To the entire team at Melo's: thank you for making our wedding day even more special. You didn't just serve us food--you gave us a memory we will carry for the rest of our lives.

It was a good, but there was not a specific flavor that stood out. I would give it a 8/10. For me, I need something to pop if there aren't a lot of ingredients. However, it was still good and my girlfriend actually disagrees with me. She said she likes how it's classic, not overwhelming with flavor. We agreed how we would not get the garlic bread. Nothing special, the bread was good but definitely needed some marinara sauce on the side. Anyway, I say come over and try it out!
