Fantastic meal and pitch-perfect service. Low light and neutral tones of dining room plus noise were nothing special but everything about the food was. Will return for a special occasion.

We were celebrating my daughter’s birthday at Blondie and from the moment we walked in we were treated warmly by the friendly staff:). It was so nice to received a champagne toast to begin our celebration ! Service was friendly & efficient and the food was delicious! This was my first time dining here, and we will be back! Everything was amazing!

12.27.24: We had a wonderful post Christmas dinner together with a fabulous Theatre show at THE MET, by Cirque du Soleil, called ‘Twas the night Before! Our meal was outstanding… It says that our server was named Errol… We started with some nice aqua pana, springwater and fabulous mocktails… The mooseberry smash and the passionfruit drinks, —we had very fresh, delicious raw oysters, the grilled octopus, the Pulpo Crudo salad, which is our favorite, the linguine Fruta Del Mare, the lobster ravioli with the most incredible cream sauce we loved it so much… !! nd we finished with splitting a delicious, fresh perfect, cannoli! WOW!! Thank you for a perfect meal, La Collina! FIVE STARS!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Perfect ambience! Perfect everything !

We have been going here regularly for 3 plus years. Always great food. Love sitting outside in the summer. Brought a first timer who noted that they would be adding In Riva a to their restaurant list to return to.

We shared the avocado toast, the brown rice salad - both excellent and one of us had the manhattan clam chowder. The last was good but lukewarm to the table - detracted from its taste on a cold day.
