Appetizers Hearty Enough to Make a Meal!
The definition of the word appetizer is "a small portion of a food or drink served before or at the beginning of a meal to stimulate the desire to eat; any small portion that stimulates a desire for more or that indicates more is to come."
Well, here at Li'l Rizzo's our appetizers can fit that description if you're sharing a plate with the table before your main meal. Of course, the appetizers you'll get at our Lake of the Ozarks Italian restaurant are anything but "small" and they are hearty enough to enjoy as a main dish if you don't feel like sharing!
If you've already dined with us, you know exactly what we're talking about, and if you haven't had our appetizers yet, here's a look at what you've been missing!
