Rinaldo’s

OUR STORY

First came the T Dog. Then came the Meatball Hero. Now we’ve embarked upon our dream restaurant to dish up our delicious, handmade sandwiches and pizzas just like the family used to make–everything from scratch using local ingredients.

We are the Rinaldo Brothers, Tony and Sam, and we come from a family that loves and respects Italian American food. We’re born and raised in Halifax, with our roots in Buffalo, New York, and Sicily. We’ve been working our way through kitchens globally and back here at home–collecting experience and inspiration for this very menu–all the while perfecting and honing the family’s favourite recipes behind-the-scenes. Expect the freshest bread and pastries, pizza just like our father Salvatore used to make, Aunt Fran’s meatballs, our Grandma’s eggplant parmesan and so much more.

It’s not just food, it’s family.
