Peter Sclafani and Ruffin Rodrigue opened Ruffino's Restaurant in 1998 and established a restaurant that took Baton Rouge dining to the next level. Featuring an old Italian feel, Ruffino’s has a wood burning stove where we cook our pizzas, a temperature controlled wine cellar with over 2,500 different varietals of wine and we even make our own delicate balsamic caviar. Ruffino’s also has a private wine label, Vino’s Passion, available to enjoy while dining or for purchase at the restaurant.

Ruffino's offers three fabulous rooms for your party or event: The Vino Room; The Ruffino Room; The Chianti Room. We specialize in company meetings, rehearsal dinners, pharmaceutical presentations, award ceremonies, birthday, anniversary or retirement celebrations, and we can accommodate almost every event.
