I've eaten here at least a dozen times and have never been disappointed. Great service from the owner, his son, and the entire staff. The room is really nice with a gorgeous bar in the middle. Some nice private tables near the kitchen to conduct business too. Try the blackened shrimp with angel hair pasta. Not the most Italian dish on the menu but absolutely delicious. Reasonably priced dinners and you will not go hungry! Give it a try! Full bar with good cocktails as well.

They are very consistent with the quality and care given to their food. Ample portions that will satisfy a hardier appetite. Pleasant atmosphere smaller cozy dining area, but there is also a large amount of bar space that can be utilized as well. My go-to is the crab cakes!

My husband and I were traveling from St Louis up through Kankakee on our way up to Michigan to visit our son. We always check Yelp to find new restaurants in any area we are traveling to. Rigos was 4.4 on a scale of one to five. So we decided to try it. We were not disappointed! Food was delicious, and a great value for the price. I had the pecan encrusted Seabass, and it came with a nice dinner salad and twice baked potato. Delicious! Hot rolls came right out of the oven. Our server, Brianna, was terrific! Super friendly & helpful. Told us about everything we needed to know about specials, & checked back with us every step of the way. The kind of service you only hope for these days! Missouri I would highly recommend, you won't be disappointed!

My favorite place in the Kankakee area! I love the ambience, and of course, the champagne chicken & crème brûlée! Angel & Rigo are always very attentive, and willing to go the extra mile. It's an absolute joy to know our dining experience will always be top notch! For my husband and I, it's also a bit nostalgic. This is where we met.

Easy to miss as you drive by but an excellent dinner!!! Traveling thru Kankakee and this was a delightful surprise. I had filet of sole stuffed with crab and a champagne sauce with dried cranberries. My husband had seafood arabiatta and thoroughly enjoyed. Menu was such I had difficulty deciding. Prices very reasonable. Convenient parking. If I'm back in Kankakee, I will make it a pint to return. Highly recommend!!
