Rizzi’s Italian restaurant is one of my favorite Peoria restaurants and I love the bar in Rizzi’s.
When I go out alone to Rizzi’s that’s where I always have my dinner and tonight I’m dining alone and so it’s off to Rizzi’s bar we go!

Bar Number 64: Rizzi’s Italian Restaurant, Saturday, March 14, 2026
Here we are at Rizzi’s Italian Restaurant, let’s go in and start this week’s Saturday night bar adventure.
There’s the bar located in the back of the restaurant. It’s a nice, cozy, dark bar and I love it!
There’s Bekim, the owner of Rizzi’s, serving me up a bottle of Budweiser! Always great to see Bekim and even better when he’s bringing me a Budweiser!
We’re off to a great start to this Saturday evening!
Lisa was the official bartender on duty and here she is posing for the MBIP camera with Dave who was seated next to me at the bar. Great to see both of them!
There’s the back of the bar and there’s bottles of wine right next to it.
The wine glasses hanging over the bar add a nice sparkle to the bar!
There’s another shot of the dining room behind the bar and comfortable booths line both sides of the wall in here.
There’s more wine housed over here in this cabinet!
Meanwhile, back at the bar, it looks like Saturday night dinner is starting to be served!
I started off with a Caeser salad which Lisa added some pepper from the giganzo black pepper grinder behind the bar.
It was a delicious salad and a tasty start to tonight’s dinner!
For some reason, I’ve never had the homemade Lasagna at Rizzi’s, so tonight that’s what I ordered. Once again it’s peppered up by Lisa and it looks absolutely fantastic!
Wow, this is probably the best Lasagna I’ve ever had! So rich, tasty and cheesy! And the sauce is so flavorful and rich!
Yet another remarkable dinner at Rizzi’s Italian Restaurant!

The Drinks
I had a bottle of Budweiser and a couple glasses of iced tea. Just like yesterday I forgot to take photos of the iced tea and just like yesterday I’ll add the phrase, “but what are you going to do?”
