    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!

    As a Michelin Chef starred restaurant, you expect... and oh boy, did they deliver. Paul, our server, made the evening way and beyond food experience. Don't get us wrong!! Food was absolutely divine! Sommelier Gabriel knows its craft and will suggest great wine and night cap drinks. Oh, their cocktail menu is pretty original, too. Overall, it is one of our best experiences. Beautiful outside patio. Unfortunately, it was too cold for us to eat outside. The whole staff is so nice and friendly. We had a great time.
