What's New at Li'l Rizzo's

Recently, Li'l Rizzo's in Lake Ozarks went through a major renovation. We worked hard adding new updates inside and outside of the best Italian restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks. If you haven't been in yet to check out the new updates for yourself, here is what we did.


New Bathrooms

We took the original bathrooms circa 1989 down to the studs, we even removed the existing tile floors and completely updated everything! New tile, new vanities, new stalls, and made it flow seamlessly with the rest of the restaurant. Our bathrooms now have a little bit of Italy and are updated and modern.


New Bar Area

We removed the old green laminated counters and bar top (if that bar could talk...), stripped, stained and refinished all of the woodwork in the bar area, removed the existing tile floor, carpet in the entry and the drink rail along the wall separating the bar from the dining room for additional space.  Our brand new bar area is more open and contemporary.  It features a beautiful granite bar and countertops, as well as a new foot railing and new tile flooring throughout.  For the ladies, we also added purse hangers, so you no longer have to drape your purse over your chair or place it on the floor. We've opened up the area so you can enjoy Happy Hour with your friends more comfortably.


New Deck Area

Throughout the season at Lake of the Ozarks, we experience many rainy days. Before, you could not enjoy our beautiful outdoor space during those days. We changed this by removing the old vinyl awning and supporting structure, replacing it with a permanent wooden structure and metal roof, new fans and LED rope lighting.  Now, if it's raining, you can still enjoy sitting outside with a delicious meal while gazing over our beautiful view of the Lake of the Ozarks.  One thing we love to do here at Li'l Rizzo's during the summer is feature live music on the deck, so be sure to join us on Sunday evenings for Me and Jim.



Old Favorites

While we have done a lot of upgrading and remodeling this year, we still have all your old favorites. You can still expect to find the best Italian food at the Lake of the Ozarks. From traditional Italian fare like lasagna to local favorites like toasted ravioli, you can find it all at Li'l Rizzo's.


We Hope To See You Soon

If you haven't already, we hope you come down to check out what we have done. Happy Hour is a great time to see what we have done to the bar area. From 3:00 - 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, enjoy drink specials and half priced appetizers. This weekend, it's going to be in the 80s, which is perfect weather for enjoying the new updates to the deck area. In addition, every Sunday night, we have live music from Me & Jim on the outdoor deck. We can't wait to show you our new updates!

The Origins of Appetizers

Image
An appetizer is a small dish of food or a drink taken before a meal or the main course of a meal to stimulate one's appetite. Who decided we needed food before more food? Keep reading to learn about the origins of appetizers! Then take a look at what delicious pre-meal snacks we have to offer here at Li'l Rizzo's . Appetizer History Virtually all cultures have indulged in pre-meal morsels designed to whet the appetite. The ancient Greeks and Romans sampled bits of fish, seasoned vegetables, cheese and olives prior to their meals. Italians often ate thin rolls of grilled veal to stimulate the appetite for the meal to come. Wealthy Frenchmen picked at hors d’oeuvres throughout fancy meals from the late 17th through the mid-19th centuries. These snacks ranged from oysters and stuffed eggs to slices of beef tongue or braised quails. Americans began emulating that french dining model, by placing these bites of food on the table to be served throughout the meal as a pala...

Draught Vs. Draft: What's the Difference?

Image
Brew, barley soda, liquid bread, and suds. There are so many different terms and phrases for the ice cold beverage we all love. The one that confuses us the most though, is draught and draft...how do we know which one to use, or how to pronounce it? Li'l Rizzo's has the best bar at the Lake of the Ozarks , so we're curious what the difference is between draught and draft. Draught Definition : A serving of drink (usually alcoholic) drawn from a keg. This could potentially save you from a very embarrassing night at the bar! Though it looks like it is pronounced like caught or bought, it's not. It's actually pronounce as "draft" according to Dictionary.com . A draught beer (AKA: spelt draft) is served from a cask or keg instead of a bottle or can. You can get draught beer in a "can form", and it's served in a pressurised container featuring a widget. A widget is a small plastic ball that you'll find in the can of your favorite draug...

Why Does Pasta Come in So Many Different Shapes and Sizes?

Image
Pasta comes in many different shapes and sizes. In fact, there are approximately 350 different types of pasta around the world. These noodles can be organized into several different groups including long pasta (spaghetti, fettucine), tubes (penne), stuffed (tortellini, ravioli) and more! The meu at Li'l Rizzo's has a variety of different types of pasta. Why All These Shapes and Sizes?  Chefs use different shapes and sizes of pasta for different purposes because certain shapes hold different sauces better than others. Thin pasta, such as angel hair works better with thin oil-based sauce, while thicker sauces work better with thicker, heavier pastas. Flat pastas pair well with cream sauces, while tomato-based sauces seem to cling better to round pastas. What's your favorite shape of pasta?
