Rep. Haas Honors Rigo’s Place for January Local Business Spotlight

KANKAKEE – For her January 2025 local business spotlight, State Representative Jackie Haas (R-Kankakee) recognizes Rigo’s Place in Kankakee. Rep. Haas spent time touring the business and presented the owners with a certificate of appreciation for their contributions to the community. 

“For my January 2025 local business spotlight, I am honored to recognize Rigo’s Place in Kankakee,” said Rep. Haas. “They make delicious food and are most well-known for their excellent seafood.”

Rigo’s Place was opened in 2012 by Rigoberto Salgado and his son Anjel Salgado. Previously, Rigoberto owned America’s Bistro (The Bistro) from 1996-2010. After the bistro closed they wanted to start something new together. Other members of the Salgado family also work at the restaurant. 

Rep. Haas concluded, “Anjel, Rigoberto, and the entire team at Rigo’s have created a great space for everyone to come together and enjoy a meal. They do a great job running this locally, family-owned restaurant, all while continuing to make our community even better.”
