Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Lewiston

We visited here this past September for an overnight stay and loved it. This was our first time coming for valentines dinner since all the other restaurants were booked. Luckily we were able to get a reservation and loved it. They had a nice valentines dinner special that was an appetizer entree and dessert. Quite a few selections to choose. We had a window seat. Unfortunately it was a bit chilly. They accommodated us with a blanket to put next to the window. Very kind. Waitress was great even with it being so busy. She was still able to keep returning to check on us. Meal was delicious. I would book again for next valentine along with throughout the year including another overnight stay

For a valentine’s night and pre-opera show the service was excellent! We have been to this restaurant several times and not once we were disappointed. The food is always delicious. Took two friends who didn’t know this restaurant and they loved it.

We were running late and the young lady who took our call was so amazing …. Her voice was calming and she told us to get to the restaurant safely and that she would keep our reservation. We arrived at the restaurant the staff was absolutely amazing - welcoming, warm and hospitable. Beautiful restaurant, cozy and clean! Our absolutely best part of our night was our server …. Service of excellence, above norm, wow! I forgot his name but I believe he was a ginger !!!!! We were taken care of! And appreciated him tremendously

From the service, to the exceptional 14 course menu, to the wine and of course getting a chance to hang out with an awesomely talented pair of winemakers, Kelly Mason and Brooke Husband, the night was spectacular. It was our first time at Rizzo's and well worth the wait. Every bite was filled with the most incredible flavors! The lasagna was mouthwatering, the chicken parm was the best I have ever tasted, I could go on but there are limited characters here :) but have to mention the brownie with chocolate chip ice cream - never tasted a brownie like it, mind blowing. Special shout out to Connor, Paolo and the service team, they were spot on. Special shout out to the Chef and kitchen staff, they knocked every dish out of the park! I will be back in the spring for bread and sauce at the store when it opens. Thanks Rizzo's, we had a blast!

Matt, the host, sommelier was friendly helpful and knowledgeable, made the experience very enjoyable. Lunch portions are very generous.
