Best Authentic Restaurants in East Falls

We have been going here regularly for 3 plus years. Always great food. Love sitting outside in the summer. Brought a first timer who noted that they would be adding In Riva a to their restaurant list to return to.

We enjoyed everything from the moment we waked in to the moment we left. Our anniversary was acknowledged by the hostess, our server and a manager. They also sent out a sweet little dessert. Timing was very fluid. I was very impressed with the acoustics- the restaurant was totally packed but you can not hear another individual conversation and can still make out the music. Hard to achieve without seeing visible panels or an abundance of heavy drapery and rugs which there is not. Food was perfect.

I always enjoy the Dandelion. The decor, the food and particularly the service are always wonderful.

We’ve been patronizing the restaurant since before COVID, both the restaurant and the grocery. Consistently, the food, service, and overall dining experience are excellent. On this particular occasion, there were three of celebrating a birthday. From start to finish, the service could not have been better — efficient, friendly, and helpful. All three of us had the special Branzino dish, and each had a different salad or appetizer. The dishes all exceeded our high expectations. We could not stay for dessert, but purchased a pint of the Desire gelato for consumption at home. Needless to say, the gelato was over-the-top.

Absolutely wonderful. Delicious food and friendly service. Our favorite place in the city for special occasions.
