   Unique sauces dressing salmon and veal shank excelled! Rose vodka with lime cocktail was delightful. Our server Kinsey was friendly and very helpful with meal options. Cost of Meal a bit pricey for normal night out but worth it for occasional celebrations lke birthdays!!

   We each tried a different pasta and shared. Best ravioli I have ever had! All dishes were delicious!

   We had a fantastic dinner at La Riv! From the start, our waitress was incredibly friendly and helped us navigate the menu, especially since my wife has a dairy allergy. The bartender was just as helpful, patiently answering all my cocktail questions. We kicked things off with an Amaro Negroni and a Sidecar—both excellent. For appetizers, we went with the mussels, and for the main course, the whole branzino, which was perfectly prepared. We also enjoyed a couple of great glasses of white wine. The wine list had an impressive selection, with great choices from both Italy and the U.S. The restaurant has a relaxed open-kitchen concept, which adds to the warm and inviting atmosphere, while still maintaining a touch of upscale elegance. You can watch the chefs in action, which makes the dining experience even more engaging. Highly recommended! We’ll definitely be back to try the fresh-made pasta.

    Very good food. We ordered four entrees and three appetizers for a party of four adults. The pizza was gooey/soggy from the large amount of grease that settled in the middle of the pizza. It was pretty bad. We wouldn’t order the pizza again. But everything else was great! Service was solid and the atmosphere is great. Parking is a challenge. But that’s got nothing to do with the restaurant. We look forward to coming back. Great food!
