Best Seasonal Restaurants in Bradenton Beach

We had the baked pimento oysters for the appetizer, they were amazing. Between all of us, we had the catch of the day which was swordfish and it was cooked to perfection. The jambalaya was also a great dish as was the bruschetta chicken. The creme brulee and tiramisu were also just right. Not too sweet and beautiful presentation. The service was exceptional. Lynn was very kind and friendly and made sure we were topped off at all times and her knowledge of the menu was on point. The best part was the outdoor seating area and the view. Definitely recommend the restaurant and it's location.

Juan was so nice & dinner was great! Very accommodating for valentines :)

Nice to have new upscale, casual dining opportunity. Food good, little pricey. Service outstanding. Will return.

We were very skeptical about eating at Riva. We had friends eat there twice and said the service and food were horrible. We had another friend eat there less than a week ago and said it was fantastic so we decided to try it. The entire dining experience was excellent. Our water, Jose, spent a lot of time going over the menu which was appreciated. Our appetizer, the grilled octopus was excellent. Our entrees came out and were prepared perfectly. Dessert and the wine were both enjoyable. It was a wonderful evening ending with Dennis Quaid walking in as we were walking out!😀
