Best Romantic Restaurants in Riverdale

Superb! From the time we arrived, until we left. Everything was amazing. We do not have any complaints. Giancarlo, our waiter/server was TOP TIER! Each of his recommendations were spot on and my Fiance and I enjoyed our evening. We cannot wait to visit them again! Highly recommend it!

The meal was excellent. We started with Mediterranean Mezedes. Entrees of Beef Gyro and Combo Souvlaki platters were plentiful. We took home the Baklava cheesecake dessert. The dining room upstairs was cozy with the fireplace going. All was good until the band started playing downstairs. Then it was too noisy. I didn't need to hear "Shake your Boodie" while I was eating dinner on Valentine's Day.

I had heard about Rails from numerous people who have always raved about it. So, I was very excited in anticipation. The restaurant is beautiful right alongside the Towaco Railroad Station. Plenty of help valet parking but a bit of a walk to get inside. The ambiance is nice with an extensive top notch wine list. But our waitress was not as knowledgeable about the menus that might have been a good opportunity for an upsell for our order. And it was kind of hard to get over that my guest’s lobster tail arrived raw. In sending it back when I asked the waitress about it she said oh! I didn’t talk to them, they’re very busy with it being the holiday. . . Not a very good first impression. Not even an apology. I would go back though. And I understand you can take a tour and go through the secret door to the bar in the cellar. The menu is a la carte which make it seem expensive, but the prices are actually quite reasonable.

My cocktail was $18 but very delicious! We did the Lunch pre-fix menu, which was totally worth it! The appetizers were AMAZING!!! The food portions were great, we needed to take our lunch and dessert home. My chicken was a little on the drier side, but the flavor was on point! Would definitely go back and recommend this place to my friends! They are starting brunch service on February 22nd. Our waiter was attentive, but a soft talker.

Had a great overall experience at this occasion - even though the time of my reservation was during a slow period (weekday afternoon).
