What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

On Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives' 'Made to Order' episode (aired 2010-10-25), Guy Fieri visited Rino's Place, a small Italian restaurant in East Boston's Eagle Hill neighborhood, for its homemade red sauce, thin-cut veal, and oversized made-to-order ravioli. Rino's Place is a counter-and-table Italian eatery that has built a following for its daily lunch and dinner specials. In July 2026 Yelp's business listing for Rino's Place showed the restaurant active, carrying more than 1,190 reviews and current posted hours of Monday-Thursday 3:00 pm-9:00 pm, Friday 11:00 am-9:00 pm, and Saturday from 3:00 pm, according to Yelp. The listing also noted the restaurant's reputation for getting crowded, with early arrival recommended for a table, and listed a current phone number, (617) 567-7412, for inquiries.

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives' takeout special sent Guy Fieri back to Rino's Place, a second-generation East Boston Italian spot the show first featured in a 2010 episode called Made to Order. The segment highlighted Rino's homemade lobster ravioli, made with fresh New England lobster and hand-rolled pasta, according to the restaurant's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives location page. Rino's has operated at 258 Saratoga Street in East Boston serving scratch-made red sauce and veal dishes.

Rino's Place appeared in Food Paradise's 'Noodle Nirvana' for its housemade pasta, including ravioli stuffed with sweet lobster meat in a creamy tomato sauce, per The Kitchen Scout and The Food Lens reviews of the East Boston restaurant. A 2026-09-08 site check found the restaurant's own website still live, last modified 2026-07-11, and Yelp's listing, updated July 2026, shows continued reviews at the Saratoga Street address.
