Ruffolo's Special Pizza Il is a culinary gem that shines brightly in the heart of Southeastern Wisconsin, a veritable oasis of culinary delight that will leave even the most discerning palates singing. My recent visit to this esteemed establishment was a truly revelatory experience, a symphony of flavors and textures that left me utterly enchanted. The "Poor Man's Lobster" was a masterclass in indulgence, succulent chunks of tender seafood bathing in a rich, buttery sauce that coated my taste buds with its luxurious embrace. The accompanying clam chowder was a creamy, briny delight, its velvety smoothness offset by the satisfying crunch of freshly baked bread, served with a generous side of Mastacholli that begged to be devoured. The Alfredo sauce was a sublime concoction that elevated the dish to stratospheric heights, its rich, nutty flavors mingling with the pasta in a joyous celebration of culinary synergy. And the garden salad, tossed in a homemade creamy garlic sauce of uncommon depth and complexity, provided a delightful counterpoint to the richness of the preceding dishes. Throughout the meal, the service was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic, the staff's passion for the food they serve palpable in every interaction. And the prices? A veritable steal, a testament to Ruffolo's commitment to providing top-quality cuisine at a price that's accessible to all. In short, Ruffolo's Special Pizza II is a culinary treasure, a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a truly exceptional dining experience. I offer my highest recommendation, and eagerly anticipate my next visit to this culinary paradise.

This past January marked the very first time trying a Ruffolo's location and was a delightful first experience. My family & I really enjoyed it! Over the years I've had co-workers in particular that live in Kenosha or Pleasant Prairie that claim that the food and especially the pizza are really good here and they're right! This IL guy already fell in love with this place after one visit! What I love about this place is the food is delicious at great prices, doesn't have a thousand bottle wine rack and the ambience is nothing fancy. This is the way I like to do Italian, just yummy food in a humble setting with down-to-Earth friendly service. Everyone ordered something different which I'm glad so I could get an overall synopsis on the taste of the food in general. This Italian fare is awesome and the pizza is easily some of the best in town. The Poor Man's Lobster was really good with a generous portion. Although not a mystery to the folks of K-Town, Ruffolo's is a real gem and a bit of a hole-in-the-wall if you ask me. I wish for continued success & prosperity for the owner who I met and was very kind.

I recommend Ruffalo's on 45th St. in Kenosha. It's only about 5 blocks from my house. I've only gone there for their awesome pizza before, but I've been craving a salad all day, so I went there. Just smelling the food made me even more hungry, so I went for the cod dinner for only $8, which came with a side salad, Italian bread and your choice of potatoe. I also ordered the clam chowder soup while I waited. The soup was awesome with big chunks of clam, salad was fresh and chilled just right and the fish & fries..... OMG! 3 HUGE pieces and enough fries for 3 or more people. So much food!! All that plus 3 sodas and my check was only $14.45. I couldn't eat it all so I boxed what I could to take home. I'm in a wheelchair and they even held the door open for me. So I highly recommend them if you're ever in Kenosha on a Friday night. Next time, I'm going to try the poor man's lobster dinner for only $10.

You must-visit: I was told about this gem by a friend of mine, so I was very curious to visit! 1st time Impressed Pizza Perfection: The pizzas are nothing short of divine. crust was well done and juicy with just the right chewiness, topped generously with San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil. with the ambience take a bite, and you’re in Italy. Passionate Staff: The team a Ruffalo's is warmth and authenticity. The Owner Giuliana made me feel welcome and she made sure my family was seated in a great location they will work hard for everyone from dine in to the people who carried out They’ll gladly share stories about their restaurant and team making you feel like an honored guest. I was in Awe Crazy Cat was amazing she will keep you laughing you can feel her love Nicole was spectacular she keeps you up on what to order she is very knowledgeable and knows what the people want my family was very hungry after a long day. so, make sure you try the Garlic Knots absolutely amazing you will be impressed my husband had the Poorman's lobster the sauce for the ravioli was so good he boosts on that meal the entire evening because he loves fish, and it was the best he has had. I cannot explain the level of greatness with every bite the butter and flavors will melt in your mouth me, and my son had the pizza yummy! you won't go wrong with the Fans Favorite 14" will be enough for 2 with extras to carry out the portions are great the shrimp looks amazing my recommendation is that you go for yourself to see the Crowds coming in on a Friday night was a sign for me Great food. Good Atmosphere: the flavors that set the stage for the main act—the pizza! Ambiance: Ruffalo's 2 feels like home. Dolce Finale: Save room for dessert! Good Atmosphere: Don’t miss the dessert. you have to Limoncello cheesecake which was my favorite the Tiramisu will simply melt in your mouth The tiramisu is velvety, and the Chocolate Cake was made fresh with perfect temperature and filled with the right— amount of Frosting this Pizzeria is more than a restaurant; it’s an experience....

As most in town know; Ruffalos gets busy quick. We arrived a little earlier than usual and there was plenty of seating for five. As i glanced over the dining area, the bar along the back wall, and the service area i told myself they were ready. Everything was super clean, loads of staff bustling about in order. After we were seated, our waitress met us promptly and asked what our first order of business. Drinks arrived quickly, along with a basket or two of fresh Italian bread. After we all decided our orders more baskets of bread and the choice soups or salads were brought to our table promptly. If youre wondering what i chose, it was their salad. Ruffalos does probably the freshest, most balanced salad I have had at restaraunts. So i always start with salad. Our meals arrived in proper time. And as i gazed over the table at everyones meal, everything looked well plated, and very pleasant to the eye. The chicken parm, the fried fish, and my order of the combo pasta were delish! My combo plater which included meat ravs, stuffed shells, and the wedge of lasagna were filled with a perfectly seasoned and well balanced flavor of meat. I'm a garlic lover, so after i tasted the garlic it made me feeling warm and happy. The pasta itself was perfect providing the perfect texture to each bite. The one thing that took my meal over the top was the sauce. It had nice well constructed body, smooth and almost silky. Not heavy in salt notes, very savory and above all finished sweet. Our server was friendly, kept good watch over our table for when things needed to be replenished thru our experience. I believe we went thru five baskets of that wonderful bread. The entire experience was not disappointing, and i feel you get alot for your money here at Ruffalos. If you are desiring Itallian dine in, you need to give these hard working folks a try. You wont be...

We ate here last night for the first time since I was a little kid and we were not left dissatisfied! The food was amazing and the staff provided prompt, professional and friendly service. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and broccoli, side salad with french dressing and my date ordered the meat ravioli with cheesy broccoli soup which I had to try as well. The Alfredo sauce was rich and creamy, the chicken was grilled to perfection, yet very tender, and the pasta was perfectly cooked. The ravioli was definitely homemade and the meat was perfectly seasoned with Italian herbs, spices and were smothered in homemade marinara sauce. The portion sizes are very large, we were left with plenty of food to take home, which normally kind of annoys me but not this time! This food is just as amazing as leftovers as it was when we got it yesterday. I just heated it slowly in a pan, covered over low heat. We will definitely be back and we hope to see more of Kenosha patronize this wonderful business

Edit: today we ate at Ruffolos again and definitely were not disappointed. My wide ordered the Fettucine Alfredo with Chicken and it was delicious. I ordered a single serving of the Italian Salad. It is delicious and the portion is easily enough to feed two people. I also ordered the Italian Beef Bomber and it was so good I was still able to finish it after eating half of that enormous salad. Our server, Michelle provided us with top notch service, she always made sure we had everything we needed, that we were enjoying our meals, and we never had to ask for a refill on our drinks. I highly recommend Ruffolos for anyone looking for a nice, authentic Italian dinner and an atmosphere where you will be...
