My new favorite spot whenever I visit Victoria! I had dinner at Riva before catching the ferry home. I really liked the menu, which offers a variety of delightful dishes to choose from. We started with crab cakes and flatbread, followed by striploin and lamb steak for our main courses. The portion for the crab cakes was decent, but the flatbread was a bit pricey at $24 for its size. Both dishes were delicious, though they arrived warm rather than hot. The striploin was cooked slightly more than my preference (I ordered medium rare, closer to medium), but I absolutely loved the accompanying vegetables! The lamb steak was cooked to perfection—very tender and juicy, plus it was local lamb! Kudo...
A friend and I were there to celebrate a birthday and were blown away by the quality of food, service, and atmosphere.Our table gave us an incredible view of wind-whipped waves at night, while the dimmed lights and electric fireplace creating a lovely relaxing environment. The addition of some light piano jazz was the perfect touch.The food was divine. Our seafood pasta dishes were perfectly seasoned, and the made-in-house fresh bread was perfect for mopping up the sauce. The wine menu was the only weak point, with just a small selection available.The service was wonderful. All staff we encountered were courteous and professional ; we felt very welcomed and appreciated that the servers knew...
I had the linguine vongole and was really looking forward to it. There were enough clams, but they were still all in the shell. Usually the clams are taken out of the shell and only a few stay in the shell as sort of decoration. This dish usually comes with red peppers and not grape tomatoes. The spaghetti was dauced in oily, buttery sauce, it almost looked like a spagetti soup.The dish had hardly any grana pavano, so I asked the waitress for some more and she brought parmesan cheese instead! I pointed out the excessive sauce and she agreed that Chef had been a little overly generous. When the bill came there was not even a discount for the pasta dish! The ambiance was nice and so was the wa...
The restaurant is lovely, but I can't honestly call it Italian when the chef isn't Italian and doesn't seem to know how to prepare pasta. As an Italian, I expect to experience a genuine Italian atmosphere when dining out, or at the very least, to have an Italian chef at the helm. I ordered fettuccine alla marinara but received tagliatelle with a basic tomato sauce instead. When I asked the waitress if my order was correct, she confirmed it was. I then pointed out that those were tagliatelle, not linguine, and that authentic marinara is typically served with seafood. Instead, I was served plain tagliatelle with tomato sauce for $37. No, thank you! Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
So delicious!!! We got take-out, clam chowder with focaccia and the Riva burger with fries. We ate it at home about 10 minutes later, so not piping hot, and still the best fries I’ve had in a while. The burger was amazing too, bacon jam yum. And my partner licked the bowl of his clam chowder!10/10.
I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The location, food, and service from Sophie were all impeccable. The best part was the quiet atmosphere, which made it easy to have a conversation. The jazz piano music added to the ambiance beautifully.
It pains me to say so, but Don't Go!! A very nice room, with a great view and very good front of house. But the kitchen let's them down. Over priced and under delivered. As the owner said there are over 50 other places to dine. (He's a real peach!
We went to a Riva for a birthday celebration in November 2023. My husband had the chowder and the burger they were both lukewarm. I had the mussels and they were mediocre. It was disappointing, probably won’t try again. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
