    As always, we had a great meal. Our table happened to be under a speaker, so it was difficult to carry on a conversation at our table. If you want a quieter experience, ask to sit outside or in a different room than the main room.

    Helena Modern Rivera is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the incredible energy of the restaurant. The ambience was modern yet inviting, setting the perfect mood for a night out. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the chef’s skill and creativity. The drinks were equally impressive—craft cocktails that were both visually stunning and delicious. Our experience was elevated even further by our waitress, Christina. She was attentive, warm, and had fantastic recommendations that enhanced our meal. Her energy matched the lively atmosphere of the restaurant, making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our visit. Helena Modern Rivera is a must-visit for anyone seeking amazing food, drinks, and an unforgettable dining experience. We can’t wait to return!

    Our starter of Harvest corn soup was delicious; the creamed soup was topped with corn relish and a few kernels of popcorn, which added a very different twist to the overall taste. We had scallops with pork belly and zaatar coated cobia, both of which were cooked to perfection. Dessert consisted of chocolate mousse, which was a “dry” version of mousse and a glass of house made limoncello, which unfortunately tasted more like lemon flavored water. We could have done without the mousse or the limoncello. The noise level was high in large part due to a family with children having dinner. The service was excellent! We would definitely return.

    Very tasty meals. Good ambiance. Personnel is attentive and kind. The service is a little bit disorganized and reduces the overall experience.
