We have been to Rafi's many times!! The food is great! The white pizza is a family favorite!! We also love the baked ziti, eggplant parmesan, shrimp parmesan, snd spaghetti with white clam sauce!!

Came in for a quick lunch. Enjoyed the pasta fagoli soup, could have been a little more spicy in comparison to what i make at home but there were jars of red pepper flakes on the table to compensate. Usually I use hot sausage, this had no meat. The soup came with soft Italian bread. I noticed olive oil on the table and thought a nice addition would be some balsamic vinegar to mix into the olive oil to dip my bread in. However after asking all they had was red wine vinegar....not the same. We also split a white pizza since all the previous reviews seemed to recommend. First impression....tasted like it had been microwaved. White Pizza tasted like garlic cheesy bread from little Cesar's. It was also chewy which made me think microwaved. Was served on a plate in a pile like nachos, very suspect. Overall I'd come back only because I'm intrigued.

We held a birthday party here. The staff was very accommodating. The food is always delicious! I highly recommend the white pizza. Everyone enjoyed their meal.

On 31Jan2020, my daughter and i decided to try this joint out. I kept seeing it going north on Route 15, and my curiosity had been piqued. The place did not look like much on the outside, but inside was quaint, with candlelit tables and several patrons. As we were seated, a large party came in for a birthday celebration; we instantly realised our service will be slower, due to the other party!

Rafi’s is fabulous ! Everything is yummy ! Eggplant parmigiana is #1. (Also the spaghetti, ravioli, veal. White pizza is too !) Chef ?? Jose is very good. His sauces are the best. My fave server, Saeid, is the most efficient, polite, courteous man ever.

Their food is always delicious. My veal was perfectly done and a real treat. Our waiter was excellent.

Food is okay, service is lackluster and I founds bugs in my drink. Prices are a bit high. Not recommend.
I am family, but no bias! Don’t live in the area and have never found simple Italian food that tastes this great. If you want great tasting, home without fanfare this the place.

Greeter was rude from the second we walked in. As a party if 16 in a smaller restaurant its understandable that seating accommodations are scarce, however splitting the party up and setting them across the room is rediculous on a holiday. We waited 45 mins for 3 appetizers, made our food order and recieved it over an hour and a half later. The food was average, I personally got the seafood platter, (good portion of food) half was cold, half was room temperature. Unacceptable, however with the wait it was to much to worry about asking for another. Our waiter was nice (gita? I believe she said was her name) Will not be back. Service was just to unacceptable.

I love this place! The most fantastic white pizza in all of Frederick. Personable staff and a quiet atmosphere. Best Italian food in Maryland. Make sure you greet Bob.
