Sweat Less Travel
Edited 3 months agoRigo’s and its predecessors have been at this location for many many years. He’s a well-known chef and generally does a good job. We were happy to be able to get a table at a good restaurant on short notice on Friday to celebrate two wedding anniversaries in our family. Today’s meal was very good if not spectacular. French onion soup was a bit watery, the clam sauce was very tart and the salads were average. On the plus side, however, the ribs were good, the steaks were very good, the dessert was delicious, and the service was absolutely first rate. We would certainly come back here as we have a few times a year for many years.

a year agoMy favorite restaurant in the area now! The atmosphere was amazing so peaceful, they had live music when we went. The food is so delicious that we couldn’t resist for dessert, we ordered a tiramisu that it was soooo good! Highly recommended 🥰

a year agoAbsolutely great experience! My husband had the lamb shank, I had the half duck and we shared the escargot as an appetizer. Food was amazing, we personally did not care for sauce with lamb but the meat was tender and tasted great. The staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very clean. Extremely satisfied all around. Will visit again when in the area. Highly recommend.

Edited a year agoHad the tilapia and crab cake.. Of course with champagne sauce, excellent. 11/8/24 Back for the crab cakes in champagne sauce and crusty bread with real butter. What is stopping you from trying this restaurant? It's excellent. Rigo's special offers a chicken breast topped with a crab cake and champagne sauce. Served with a side of mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables, it was incredibly flavorful. There's a reason it was named Rigo's special. We also had Chicken Marcella and chicken parmesan, which were quite good. The menu is much more extensive than listed online, with a list of daily specials. You owe it to yourself to try this one, many times!

3 years agoWarm, clean, bright and comfortable. Rigo's place is a welcoming and friendly establishment. The woodwork adds a warm and welcoming style to a well done dining room and bar. Tastefully decorated with well selected artwork and accents. A wide and varied menu provides quality choices for everyone. Pasta dishes are cooked and seasoned properly and served hot. Steaks, seafood, salads, soups and desserts. A selection of special offerings are provided as well, in addition to the regular (large) menu. Warm bread and butter is served tableside in a covered basket. The well appointed wine list and quality liquor choices makes Rigo's Place a great spot to quaff a few adult beverages in a great atmosphere. The kitchen pays attention to the details and that is a strong point here. The service was fast, friendly and attentive. It was really a pleasure to dine here. I will be back as an opportunity provides. As if all that is not enough, Rigo's have and upstairs private party room for events with its own well appointed bar. Well done to the owners, managers and staff at Rigo's Place. Your commitment to providing a quality dining establishment, with the customer in mind, shines brightly. KUDOS to Rigo's Place!!!

4 years agoThe taste of the Big City without the big city traffic!! The ambiance was very nice, conducive to having a lovely dinner. The live pianist was a very nice touch. For starters we ordered the saganaki "flaming cheese" then were served rolls , soup and salad. Just as we were finishing that, the entrees came out. Everything was served in a timely manner. Our waitress offered the specials and was helpful in helping me decide on the Poulet Bleu, which was a chicken entree with blue cheese and brandy sauce. It was delish ..My wife got the chicken marsala and she really loved it. Dinner pricing for most entrees was in the $20-25 range per person. It was nice to go somewhere that offered unique menu items for the area. Can’t wait to go again!

4 years agoCrab cakes with champagne sauce- *chef's kiss* Shrimp de la casa was delicious and the service was outstanding. Creme brulee was among the best I've ever had. (I heard the tiramisu was amazing as well, I didn't catch a photo of it unfortunately). 10/10 would recommend

4 years agoAfter having a bad experience at another restaurant we ended up at Rigo's and oh what a difference. We showed up 5 minutes before opening and were welcomed by a very gracious host. The place is very clean and classy. Waiters were super professional. Food was delicious. I ordered sea bass and my husband got the tenderloin. Bread was great but the salad was only one slice of tomato and one of cucumber with a bunch of lettuce. Great music. We're from out of town but if we ever go back to Kankakee we'll definitely eat at Rigo's again. The menu has lost of options to explore. Parking lot was large. By the way, they speak Spanish!
