Older restaurant in small town. The building was built in late 1800s and use to be a church. The sign out front was spray painted with black paint which made us think they were closed down at first. Inside is worn and dated. The waite staff is very attentive. The food was hot and full of flavor. The waite staff also are talented. They sing and do so quiet well. This was a last minute decision for us and we were pleasantly surprised

Oh my gosh, what a jewel of a place! Super fun atmosphere, Frank the owner is an amazing man Piece of, his staff is all just as amazing. The hatch green chili calamari is to die for! Live singers, it’s just a great place with a great history. We tried several places in this was the best.

Maybe it’s me, I’m the problem? I expected more than what we received.

Food was fantastic, and great singing servers! My first chance to enjoy since 2005 while I was working in the area, and entertained my wife then. This time traveling through I brought my son to enjoy the food and entertainment, he was very impressed!

The singing waiters are the best part. Olive Garden is better than this.

Had my husbands birthday dinner here and it didn’t disappoint. Food was delicious, drinks were huge, atmosphere is very romantic and historical, Very clean, and one of the workers sung a song during dinner. It was a really nice experience. Will be back again!

My wife and I visit Rino’s every couple of years. We love the entertainment, and it’s nice to see the owner visiting with customers. My only concern is that the interior is starting to look a bit worn, and many of the items I tried to order from the menu were not available. I was also told that they offered GF pasta, but that it would take a really long time to prepare it – as if they didn’t really want to cook the GF pasta. I hope the owner fixes up that great building.

Hands down, the worst chicken parmesan ever and perhaps even the worst red sauce this side of a Spaghetti-O’s can. I don’t often take the time to deride a restaurant or establishment but I feel compelled to warn you off of this place. Specifically, the parm isn’t breaded, it’s pounded flat and over-salted then overcooked to the toughness of a well done skirt steak. The sauce tastes like they over seasoned Dollar General’s cheapest sauce. The chicken piccata was of a similar texture but tasted ok. The salad was tasty but only about 4 forkfuls.

Being sat like a party of three was a serious inconvenience to the staff at Rino’s. We continued to be quickly rushed to order, the waitress was rude from the start. Giving us attitude for not eating the salad she quick drop on us, only because we didn’t have any silverware. When we asked for some, she was rude about getting them. Then she proceeded to place it on another table right next to ours still giving us looks because we have not started eating. Mind you that this place only has about 10 tables! Then she rudely asked us “is there some kind of problem here!” to which we replied that we do not have any silverware. She then told us forcefully “I put it on the table” not realizing that she put it on the other table. After the 80+ dollar food came out she took the salads from the table with the forks and didn’t notice or care. I asked for another drink when the food was dropped off as well, which she quickly dismissed. Once we started eating with our spoons only she never came back to the table. After about 20 minutes of sitting there with no interaction, I stopped her as she walked by to give her my card so we could just leave seeing how I have forks at my house. When she returned with my card and boxes of food she asked how everything was, I told her I couldn’t eat because we didn’t have forks; her reply was that the comment was ridiculous and somehow that it was my fault! After being completely humiliated and dismissed, I didn’t even pack up the mid-quality food as we were definitely unwelcome at this establishment. WE will NOT be returning to this establishment, after just moving to Trinidad which does not have a lot of restaurants that is one off the list and should not be considered if you are visiting. Worst experience EVER!
