The cuisine was outstanding—definitely the best restaurant in town! I was so stuffed I could hardly move! Excellent experience overall! A big thank you to Danny and his team! We’ll definitely be returning!

My dad and grandmother, who has lived in Queens for forever, like to go to Il Nocello, which is also good, but we were driving by Riviera and I liked the vibe and none of us hadbeen, so we decided to try it. The food is on point, servers were great (attentive but not at all trying to rush us), clienteleis super laid back, vibes are casual but nice, and the host/owner was super welcoming. My only suggestion would be to tint thebig window between the kitchen and dining room to soften the white light coming from the kitchen. I like that feature, but Ipersonally can?t stand white fluorescent lights. Regardless, we had a great time and would go again.

Comes w choice of soup or salad, entrees dessert, etc. Great service but can be noisy when full everyone chatting away. Easy meter parking infront free on-street parking just a short distance away.
