Riviera Restaurant and LoungeGreat, but loadWe got sat in the back room. We were a group of 8 celebrating a graduation. There was a group of 6 behind us. While it wasn't the restaurant's fault, this group of 6 was so load, obnoxious and offensive, it made our exceptional food turn into a less than awesome experience. I wish someone from management had let the table know they were over the top and offensive. But I would definitely go back and just hope they aren't regulars.6/13/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food is always good. AThe food is always good.

I will go back5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMAn Excellent MealWe took my mother to Riviera for a belated Mother's Day celebration, and it was exactly what we wanted. We had been there a couple of times prior, but not since the new ownership took over. The food was excellent - Everyone was very pleased with their entrees (2 lambs, 1 duck, 1 pasta and 1 steak), the shrimp scampi appetizer was particularly delicious, and the wine we selected was quiet good and at a reasonable price. We would definitely return.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMFood very good. Fish cameFood very good. Fish came out too well done and dry. They redid it and it was excellent.
They offer a larger size martini of 10 oz > the more typical 6 oz drink. However, the charge was $21.00!! Way too much. Mastros gives you a drink and a half and they only charge $16.005/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place for friends toGreat place for friends to meet and celebrate an occasion -- birthdays, etc. The food is well prepared, service is good and attentive.
