Italian Restaurant Tempe, AZ
About us
Welcome to RigaTony's Authentic Italian food in Tempe, Az!
RigaTony's first opened in Chandler in August of 1994. It was my second restaurant, the first being Chops which opened five years earlier. Chops was a very nice steakhouse and was extremely popular but in my heart, and my actual genes for that matter, I longed to open a neighborhood Italian restaurant, the kind I had grown up with in Syracuse or had been enamored with when I visited Little Italy in New York City. Mexican restaurants have always been the staple of the Phoenix area but whenever I went out to eat I was always looking for that great home cooked Italian meal and I was usually disappointed.
