Italian Food & Culture History

Restaurant Description

In 1952 Adreana and Pasquale Riggio moved their family from the near north side of Chicago, then known as "Little Sicily," to what is now Northcenter, to a building across from Welles Park. Opening a small storefront pizzeria, Adreana and Pasquale worked with their children, making homemade pastas and assembling pizza in the store window where passersby and their children could watch the action. They soon after located in the village of Niles, and transformed it, opening the next Riggio's in the near north suburbs.

Today, the family carries on the proud heritage of the woman who everyone called "Mama." Many of those neighborhood children return, enjoying those original recipes, remembering the deliciously familiar tastes and smells of Mama's cooking. Our customers are our family, dining on Riggio's both traditional and innovative dishes inspired by La Terra del Sole: The Land of the Sun.
