Rigatoni’s provides our guests with a casual, quick-service dining experience based upon a fresh Italian concept. We specialize in freshly prepared pasta, pan-tossed to order, and fresh salads, as well as other specialty items. Rigatoni’s also features a self-service bread and olive oil bar featuring select gourmet breads and olive oils.


The first Rigatoni’s was opened in May of 1996 in Castro Valley, California. Located in the Castro Village shopping center, it’s overwhelming popularity is due in part to the welcoming atmosphere and the incredible dining value. Our average entrée costs just $7.99 and Rigatoni’s serves kids portions for under $4.00. We feature daily specials and all of our entrée’s include our self-serve bread & beverage bar. Take Out meals and our Party Pans To Go are not only in big demand from the business community, but from busy families that are on the go as well.


In June of 1999, Rigatoni’s opened a second location in Dublin, California. Dublin and its’ surrounding communities have quickly made Rigatoni’s one of their favorite regular stops. Our frequent guests comment on the wide variety of menu choices as well as how great the food tastes! They love the convenience of calling ahead for their Take Out meals and the courteous, efficient service they receive when dining in the restaurant.


Our menu selections are varied. From our signature specialty, Rigatoni Bolognese tossed in a mild meat sauce with pear tomatoes, fresh garlic, and cream…to our Chicken Pesto & Pine Nuts with fettuccine noodles, pesto-cream, and pine nuts. For those who like it a little spicy we offer our ever-popular Cajun Chicken Risotto. Delicious Arborio Rice tossed in a light Cajun sauce with fresh mushrooms, grilled chicken, roasted peppers and fresh tarragon. In addition we feature traditional pasta preparations such as Spaghetti & Meatballs, Pasta Primavera, and Oven Baked Lasagna to name just a few.


We are the restaurant for people who want to enjoy upscale, adult food with friends and family but still want value in a casual quick-service atmosphere. At Rigatoni’s, we are serving the needs of our guests.


Serving Our Community Schools and Nonprofit Organizations

To date Rigatoni’s Restaurants has donated over $20,000 to the local schools in our communities as well as various community organizations. Our fundraising program was designed to assist children’s organizations in their continuing need to find additional operational funding resources. It has evolved into wonderful relationships in our communities. Each month we host several organizations in our restaurants and return a percentage of our proceeds directly back to that organization. Rigatoni’s is consistently told that we facilitate the most popular fundraiser and are the easiest to promote. If you would like more information about how your organization can participate, please call our program coordinator at (415) 878-0250.
