TL/DR: Location good. Ambience good. Prices good. Food ok. Service passable. You won 't be making a mistake coming here but if you 're willing to pay more you can find better food elsewhereMore details: This place has a great feel as a gathering spot for locals. The prices are quite affordable especially with everything else being more expensive post-pandemic. The food is at best good but forgettable. Entree portions are a bit small compared to most restaurants (expected with tapas in the name). Service seemed stiff and made easily fixable mistakes (meals coming out staggered so people have to wait). My first impression walking in, was cool little restaurant after leaving not bad but why com...
I cannot say enough great things about riviera tapas bar. One of my friends found them in college, and it has become our holy grail get together spot for brunch. You CANNOT beat the menu and the deal for $25 bottomless food or $40 bottomless food&drink. My personal faves on the menu are the chicken empanadas (ask for the siracha aioli sauce), pancake, and bacon wrapped dates. But there is so much that I didn't even cover that is a 10/10. Our favorite server was Ari, but she left. Ivan is now our fav who keeps putting up with us and our one million requests. Also, now that they updated the decor, it is really a can't miss place.
Food is remarkably mediocre! We were served a tortilla that resembled a day old frittata more than anything, it was extremely dry, bland, and covered in pink sauce.The Patatas bravas we ordered were sitting in marinara sauce straight from a can, and were also unremarkable. Fried calamari most likely went straight from the freezer to the frier.To Riviera's credit, location, service and ambiance where all fine, and the prices are reasonable. All said, the food here is a cheap, inauthentic imitation of Spanish cuisine, prestan cuidado!
Finally made it here. I've had this place bookmarked for awhile now. A friend and I met up on Tuesday.Parking is easy as there's a parking lot right there. Not sure if payment is required. I just parked and went right in.They had happy hour going on. Ends at 6 except on Wednesday when it goes until 8! I tried the paloma cocktail it was ok. For food, I did the steak tacos. The meat had flavor, but the tortillas fell apart. Yikes! I would come back. The brunch menu looks good! Service was good. Cheers! Book a table now
I would give this place more than 5 stars if I could because it was incredible! The food was delicious, the drinks were excellent, the service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was very clean and pleasant. The prices were absolutely fantastic. We were also pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to find parking, especially on a Sunday morning. I've already recommended this restaurant to numerous friends, and I can't wait to return!
beautiful little discovery! Eat was all delicious, 3 of us shared several tapas and enjoyed every bite; mush, beef-denderloin, brot with black beef and cheese, garnel, and flan that was so good! I can't remember now. two smaller negatives; service and the worst pisco mad I had and yes I had a lot to compare! margarita was a much better choice!
Went on a Sunday morning with family for brunch. They sat us down but due to a misunderstanding regarding reservations , we were approached by the same person who sat us down, in an unprofessional way in front of other customers which was unnecessary. Although, food was good and highly recommend the all kinds of flavors mimosas.
The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent. At our table, we enjoyed lamb, calamari, bacon-wrapped dates, salmon, potatoes, and more (though I can't recall everything). Everything was delicious—I plan to return this Saturday. Parking was available about a block away. Book a table now
