Been here multiple times now. Trying different dishes and literally everything is fantastic. Not all too expensive for what you’re getting with good portion size. Very friendly staff and vibe is authentic for this style of place, I recommend for sure.

Rufino’s is located in Coventry/Hope in the kind of small strip mall you only notice when you live nearby, or you are looking for it on purpose.
Inside, the room is pure function. Counter up front. Coolers of soda and water. Racks of chips. Stacks of boxes built into a cardboard skyline against the wall. A couple of tables, but the whole space feels designed for takeout more than lingering. It looks like a place that knows its job is to get hot pizza into people’s cars as fast as possible.
The service that night was just that. Functional. Orders taken, names called, boxes handed over. Nobody was rude. Nobody was especially welcoming, either. It did the job. Whatever warmth was in the room came more from the customers talking to each other than from behind the counter.
This was a RI FOOD FIGHTS Lord of the Pies stop, and for me, a second look. Last time I came through, Rufino’s landed in the category of “fine, but forgettable.” A place I would use if I lived around the corner, not one I would tell anyone to drive to. This year felt different.
We ordered two pizzas. They offered a full pie with one topping on the coupon. We went with pepperoni on one. Grilled chicken on the other. When they landed on the table they looked exactly how you want them to look. Eight slices. Cheese bubbling and browned in spots. Cup and char pepperoni curled into little cups with edges that had gone dark. Crust with real color on the edges and that freckling underneath that tells you it has seen some heat.
First bite, you get the crust. It is on the thinner side. The end crunches clean. The middle holds together when you pick it up and then settles into a nice chew. You taste dough. It tastes nice. It is definitely better than a vehicle for toppings like many places on this list.
Rufino’s leans hard into the cheese. These are cheese forward pies. The whole surface is covered, right out to the edge. For a lot of people that is heaven. I am more of a sauce and crust person, so heavy cheese usually makes me nervous. Here, it stays on the right side of the line. It melts evenly, gets that light golden browning in the right places, and never breaks into that orange puddle that ruins everything.
The sauce still has a voice, which matters. Bright tomato flavor, a little sweetness, some herbs, enough acidity that you notice it under the cheese instead of having to go looking for it. You get a clean flash of tomato in just about every bite. That is all I ever ask.
The pepperoni is exactly what it should be. The little cups crisp at the edges, pick up some char, and bring salt and heat that cut through the richness. Those slices go first for a reason.
The grilled chicken pizza was solid. Chicken on pizza in the wrong hands can be dry punishment. This wasn’t. The pieces stayed tender, had decent seasoning, and added texture and taste to the bite instead of dragging it down. With the same sauce and cheese underneath, it carried the pie a lot better than I expected as compared to the spicy pepperoni.
My friends live about 20 minutes from Rufino’s and have been trying to find “their” pizza spot. First couple of bites, they were quiet in that way that means they are actually paying attention. Then one of them looked up and just said, “Yeah. This is it.” By the end of the meal they had decided this is where they want to get their pizzas from now on.
That is the redemption here. The room has not changed. The pizza has. Last time, Rufino’s felt like background. This time, the dough, the balance, and the toppings all felt more deliberate. It moved from “I would eat it if I had to” to “I get why the people who live near here choose it.”
If you are a cheese lover, this is going to land even higher for you than it did for me. If you are a sauce and crust person, you will still find plenty to respect. Either way, if you live in that part of Coventry, you do not need to go searching far. You already have a place that can be your regular.

We love Rufinos for takeout pizza. The pizza tastes great and is very reasonably priced. Service is quick and friendly. You can also stop in for pizza by the slice but depends what they have ready at the time, the last few times we went you could chose between cheese, pepperoni or a specialty pizza, 3-4$ for a very large slice. Eat in area is very small, just a few tables but it gets the job done. No baby highchairs though so baby had to sit in her car seat on the floor.

As a native New Yorker I’ve been looking for good NY style pizza in RI for years. Outside a few places near providence, I haven’t had much luck.
Until tonight.
Brought my family in to dine and were not disappointed!
Pizza was great. Had a nice flop to it. Sauce was light. Cheese was good.
Next best thing to NY and they deliver.
We will become regular customers

Took over 1hr 30mins to get my food delivered. A curtesy call would have been nice. Plus side the food was hot still. The calzones use to be HUGE still decent shareable size. Salad looks small but got 2 servings out of it and as far as the pizza it was just okay.

Credit card fee (4%). Spicy pepperoni, good thin but not paper thin crust. Overall a satisfying pizza!

got this sorry excuse for a panini thinking i could get past the awful appearance and hopefully be met with decent taste. first bite and i almost couldnt even swallow it. gave 2 stars for the food because i tried the pizza and fries and they was good. the chicken on this was like chewing on a tire and the taste was close to none.

At the Federal Hill Columbus Day Festival I got their Philly cheesesteak sandwich which was only $12 with peppers and onion.
It was large and the bread was very fresh. They stuffed it well with steak which was cooked exactly how I expected for a great cheesesteak.
My mom got their eggplant parm sandwich for $10, (I scored half). Layers of good ole Italian-American eggplant parm with great bread.
Can’t get much better than that.

Rufino’s is legit. Pizza is massive—easily fed two people with leftovers. Crust was crispy, toppings were loaded, and the sauce was on point. Also got the fish and chips and it was like two full portions. Big pieces of fish, and the fries were hot and crispy. Hard to do for delivery, will definitely be orderong again. Thanks!
