Customer Reviews

Have driven past this location dozens of times over the years but just never got around to trying til this past May and was a delightful first experience. They were busy at the time and the hostess informed me in advance that they were short-staffed with servers and in the kitchen if I remember correctly but the wait on the delicious food was well worth it. When it comes to Italian dining, this is definitely the way I like doing it. The vibe doesn't need to be romantic & candlelit, white tablecloth or with a massive winerack in the background. Ruffolo's is nothing fancy with friendly welcoming service serving up delicious Italian eats at fair prices in a clean bustling environment and we loved it. You can even get your game on here with the slots. We only live maybe 15 minutes SW in Beach Park on the Wadsworth border but sadly I'm a foodie so I'm constantly exploring new venues so time will tell for the next visit but we'll definitely return. Hope for decades of boomin' business to come for the owner(s).

I had the 4 piece, all dark meat, chicken dinner with a side of angel hair pasta with oil & garlic. The chicken was very crispy and moist. The pasta was made just right. It is something I grew up with. It's obvious different than your normal marinara sauce. For me it was a taste of growing up. I also treated myself to an ice cold beer!!! Samuel Adam's Octoberfest!!!

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but this is a beloved staple just over the Wisconsin border. Staff is always friendly, and the place really has a hometown vibe. Food is delicious and prices are reasonable. This is certainly the spot where the locals frequent!

Had a large gathering for a family reunion and the food was excellent, service was really good, and the place is really nice overall. My grandmother who paid was happy with the price too. This is a favorite of everyone who lives nearby.

I don't even know where to start. Beyond satisfied! No waiting and the food was delicious! I drove by this place plenty of times because home is just minutes away. I just moved to this area during the pandemic and I believe it was closed. Since then I've taken other routes, so I totally forgot about it. Everything was a shock to me. I thought it was just a small restaurant until I pulled into the parking lot. I was surprised on how huge it was and the outdoor dining is so cute as you can see in the picture. When we walked in I was even more shocked how open the space was, which was nice. It was super clean, quiet and unique with friendly staffs. There's even a bar there I believe. I didn't get to walk around to look, but from what I saw... this place is spacious and I believe it deserves more traffic. We're so glad we had gone there instead of Olive Garden. There is no comparison!
