I've been to Rinaldo's now a few times. Most times it's been really good! Unfortunately, this time was a bit disappointing in terms of one plate, which was the Lobster Ravioli. I found it to be very pricey! The ravioli was homemade and very good, but quickly got overshadowed by the lack of filing and taste inside. $32 dollars+tax for 5 ravioli's seems way overpriced. The sauce over the ravioli was really good as well, just sad when the star of your dish is the actual pasta instead of the expensive lobster filing.

The Meatball hero was a 10/10! Highly recommend this sandwich! It was everything and more for $15. $6 for a ceaser salad seemed steep, but it was a great compliment to the sandwich and had lots of bacon, which justified the price to me, (unlike the ravioli). If this review was based solely on this dish, it would have received 5 stars. Unfortunately, the ravioli/service took away from the overall value/atmosphere of the meal.

The service to me was quite poor. Once we were seated, it took almost 20 minutes to be approached despite being passed multiple times. We tried closing our menus in front of us, placing the closed menus at the start of the table, we emptied the water glasses, and nothing seemed to work. I was talking about leaving the restaurant as it didn't seem like we mattered. The restaurant was steady at best with a few bigger groups but there were still lots of empty tables and the restaurant itself is very small. When they came by for a "courtesy check," I brought up the portion and asked if this was usual or if maybe there was a mistake? They told us it's usually a smaller dish as everything is homemade, but he would go check with the kitchen and get back to us.... this never happened, not even when he gave us the bill. It was swept under the rug. I wish when ordering that this was brought to our attention. I don't mind paying for quality, but it needs to be worth it. This missed the mark on multiple fronts and wouldn't recommend it with our experience.
