Chill environment, rather quiet for a weekend evening in a refreshing way. The food was fine but not amazing. It met our needs, but I would never organize my day around this space
The service was incredible. They told us that they were short staffed that evening and we wouldn't have known it. Very attentive, great attention to detail. The food was fantastic and they had a great wine list by the glass. Great cocktail list. I was impressed and definitely going back to try other dishes.
Nice, pleasant restaurant. Not a huge menu, but what there is, is done well. Service was very pleasant, friendly and professional. Surprised there weren't more people in there on a Saturday night. Will gladly return for another meal.
Beautiful restaurant, good food, good service. I only gave 3 stars for service as it was NYE and I think the kitchen was overwhelmed. The wait staff were incredibly nice and efficient, but the kitchen sent out things in the wrong order from the prix fixe menu or not at all. I'm sure on any other day, we would not experience that and the manager came over to us to thank us for our patience. That alone made me want to give them 5 stars! My husband and I actually opened the restaurant and closed it that nite. We planned to get in, eat and get out before all the madness, but started talking to the next table and all of a sudden it was closing time. But we'd love to go back and see them operate on a normal day. We really had a great time so thank you to the staff (and kitchen) for a delightful evening.
we celebrated our family's 3rd annual Christmas Eve dinner at Riostobar, and, as always, it was wonderful! We've had Mattia as our host and head server extraordinaire all 3 years. He has a nice attention to detail, and he's funny and kind. He is now part of our family tradition and we hugged him hello and goodbye. The food and the service were amazing. We really enjoy this annual special dinner
We had the most enjoyable evening Christmas Eve. The food was amazing as were the cocktails and service. We will definitely recommend and be back!! Please go enjoy a meal here.
Food and service were both awesome! We ordered the pumpkin ghnocci and the agnolotti and were blown away by both. Cooper was super sweet and was great with our two year old son. We will be back!
Our server Copper was great! Timely, witty, fun.

The service was terrible. Our table waited and waited for our appetizers which finally came with our entrees and one was forgotten. The waiter tried bringing wine to make up for it and desserts. I recommended the restaurant to our friends who had never been there and I'm sorry I did.
We had a large group (15) celebrating an engagement! Staff were attentive,helpful and food was delicious!
The food was Ok, nothing really jumped out The lights kept getting dim then bright the entire time we ate, very annoying
I only want to provide this as helpful constructive feedback and with no ill intention to the business. I think the food has a lot of room for improvement - I found each of the dishes to lack flavor. The crudo we ordered had bones in the fish which I think should not be there. The pasta dishes were bland overall. Hoping this feedback can be used to help improve the food as this establishment certainly has the potential. I would like to add that the service was attentive and very friendly.
Ham and melon and mixed fried fish accompanied by a Pinot Noir, this was my starter. I continued with fresh pasta with braised ragu and continued with a second course of exceptional meat and polenta... I don't have photos but I will return soon and post them again... I AM SICILIAN, so the quality and this place is beyond all expectations... my compliments to all the staff and to the one who created it... the maestro Gary Rulli
