Rione Italian Restaurant - Chico (CA)

4 /5 Aru Koul: Food is great. Very unique options. We tried the September menu item “Papparadelle Alla Caponata Vegan” with some cheese added on top. It was the most amazing vegetable dish I had. Loved the taste. Also tried bruschetta with peaches and that was decent. Not superb sweet. Cheese was fresh. Not a fan though. Tiramisu was small portion but tasty. Not overly sweet and not overly coffee flavored too. Very decent. Everything was nice. Portions were good but comparatively small for the price. Good for one only.

5 /5 Shannon Waller: Had a my BFF 50th Birthday Party and jasmine and Andrew was Amazing helping me pull it off. I live 3000 miles away and they made it very easy for reservations and ordering. Thank you to the while crew for being patient with everyone. If you have a party or a nice romantic evening. Definitely cone here.

3 /5 Ryan Downer: RIONE has some great qualities, especially when it comes to service — our server was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind (9/10), though things did move a bit slowly. The atmosphere was just okay for me (about a 5/10). One wall is entirely glass which I loved, but creates a noticeable draft, so definitely dress warm if you’re visiting on a cooler evening. The menu felt more limited (6/10), and the flavors could use a bit more balance overall. One thing to note: the restaurant uses farm-raised fish rather than wild, so order with that in mind if it matters to you. (For those unaware they are much less healthy - more exposure to PFAS, plastics, and their omega ratios actually become flipped and less healthy) On a positive note, if you’re gluten-free, their pasta is actually quite good — just consider asking for it to be cooked slightly longer, as their version of al dente leans on the chewier side. Overall, some solid elements and a very kind staff, but a few adjustments could make the experience much stronger.

5 /5 cindee lanning: Update I once again had a great meal. How ever, i didnt care for the Rosetto, our server offered to get me something else. The customer service is exceptional. And the rest of the meal was delicious My husband and I celebrated our 28th anniversary . We had a wonderful dining experience . Our server was friendly and on top of anything we may need. I really enjoyed the fancyness :) of the experience. The sever told us this is authentic Italian food, and she explained how the carbanara was cooked. My husband had the Filet Mignon. Of course, I had to taste it, delicious.

5 /5 Elaina BAIRD: Our first time there, I had a pesto dish. It was the best Ive had outside of home cooked. Italian noodles were the best. We had a caprese appetizer. I recommend getting any of their appetizers. Ours was delish. Fresh fresh fresh. My date/ husband had
