The second one. I know it's wrong.
Although both pronunciations in the poll are wrong.

Really hard to express this in english when my native language Turkish provides what feels like a far more accurate pronunciation. I emphasize the t's far more than either option indicates though

I don't know whether I ever said the word before watching this episode of Seinfeld, so I just sort of adopted this way of saying it.

That's the thing with English, you guys can't pronounce a simple "o", you have to turn it into something weird like the "o" sound in "toe". ;)
Try a simple "o" like in the word "lock".
I've always heard it said ri-zoh-toe. Is the second poll option implying that the second and third syllables rhyme? Because I've never heard it pronounced that way (in the English language anyway).

Rice-auto clearly.
Native English speakers please learn correct pronunciation of foreign words. It isn't hard.
The poll confused me. I had to go into google translate and listen to English (which I assume is the language here), Swedish (my native language) and Italian (where the word is from). Now I maybe understand the poll and I pronounce it more like Italian than the other options
riz-ot-oh
Words adapt to the sounds used in other languages and dialects, so there's really no right or wrong. People get snobby about pronunciation sometimes.
