The food was absolutely delicious! There was a list, but expected for a Saturday night! The manager was so kind providing us a chair to sit and wait outside. The wait wasn't very long, and it was totally worth it! We ordered the fried calamari, baked class, chicken and egg plans parms, and other dishes. The food was amazing. Great portions and delicious! The staff was very caring, checked in on us, and just an overall friendly family atmosphere. We will definitely be returning!

Italian Cusine? Mediocre at best. We walked in with a party of 50 people after a great friends funeral. They asked us to keep.iy down.. Shortly there after, we all left after dropping $2000! Shame on you Riv. Good luck in the future. .

On behalf of The Center for the Women of New York, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Riviera for their incredibly generous and delicious donation to our Taste of the World at Fort Totten gala.
They provided pasta primavera and chicken francese, both of which were absolute highlights of the evening. The pasta primavera was fresh and vibrant, loaded with crisp seasonal vegetables and tossed in a light, flavorful sauce. The chicken francese was tender and expertly prepared—delicately golden, lemony, and rich without being heavy. Together, these dishes offered a taste of classic Italian-American hospitality that our guests truly cherished.
It is because of dedicated local businesses like Riviera that we are able to raise vital funds for our mission of supporting women in the New York community. Their commitment to giving back—and doing so with such quality and care—shows a deep investment in the well-being of our neighborhood, and it’s exactly why I’m proud to support establishments like theirs.
We highly recommend Riviera for their refined yet comforting cuisine and their tremendous generosity. Thank you for your kindness and for helping make our event an unforgettable success!

Delicious Italian food, generous portions, great prices, and friendly service. Really would be difficult to ask for any more than this.
First time customer. Fantastic experience from making reservations, to being greeted at the door and to those who waited on us. Everything was done excellently. If you need a spot to bring your family or to go on a date, please choose Riviera Ristorante.

This place is somewhere you want to go if you want authentic food and quality service. Went with my family and felt nothing but respect and appreciation. No you won’t find them on Uber eats or any other service, no delivery options either; you want their food? Come dine in or pick it up yourself; love it!!! 5 stars!!!! Thank you all for staying true to the community, great service!

The waiter did not tell me that they charge six dollars extra for Penny à la vodka sauce for my side of macaroni. I was shocked to see it on the bill. He could’ve mentioned it.
Excellent. Always.
