Went there for a Saturday night date night. The place was crowded but not full. Aside from some rambunctious kids at the table behind us, the noise level was actually pretty tolerable. Wine selection was a little limited as compared to other places but we tried a red blend which was actually pretty good. The menu had a variety of foods from smash burgers to wagyu steak. Their prices were moderate but the food was great! Their fish and chips were the best I've ever had. My girlfriend order the lobster roll which she loved. For dessert we shared the chocolate nocciola which was rich and very chocolatey. Our server was Rachel and she was very attentive and prompt. Parking can be a problem at the Riviera but we got lucky and found a spot right away. We enjoyed this place so much we added it to our rotation...

Everything we tried was amazing. Great service. Loved the outside seating... a little cold, but the outdoor heaters made it comfortable. Would go again. Make sure you have a reservation...otherwise it's hard to get a seat.
