    We walked out after being there for an hour after ordering our drinks and food and receiving nothing. Bar area was great…service was awesome and then we were seated. We saw our server twice …. in over an hour …the table right next to us was also having the same issue. It was my birthday… I made reservations a week ago … and was looking very forward to it because the ambiance is SO cool… very disappointed.

    The atmosphere was amazing! We don’t get a “real Christmas” in Florida and this made us feel right at home. We loved the service, the food was INCREDIBLE (we got the brunch board and it was out of this world!) I saw an ad for this pop up Christmas restaurant on social media and immediately booked a reservation. We will absolutely be back!

    Si se hace una reservación con antelación de días y allí pregunta el motivo, pensé que tendría un gesto por parte del restaurante, ya que el motivo, era por un Aniversario, y por otra parte, debería de tomar en cuenta eso y no asignar una mesa donde, o se come o se toma alguna bebida, pero en esas mesas en particular no se puede hacer ambas, muy pequeñas. Y para finalizar tardaron más de 40 minutos que se nos acercaran a tomar el pedido, y eso es porque pasó otro mesonero y amablemente nos tomó el pedido, indicando que no era su zona de atención. Los pequeños detalles hacen la gran diferencia y se destacan del resto.

    Helena Modern Riviera is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by the incredibly friendly and attentive staff, who truly went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. The atmosphere is stunning—elegant and modern, yet warm and inviting. It’s the perfect place to relax, celebrate, or enjoy a night out. The food was phenomenal—each dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. To top it off, their holiday-themed drinks were not only festive but also delicious and creative, adding an extra touch of fun to the evening. If you’re looking for a place that combines great food, impeccable service, and a gorgeous setting, Helena Modern Riviera is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

    Ambiance was great! Service was super slow. Menu was very pricey for the items on the menu. A 3 oz portion of octopus should not be 30$. Plating was not proportionate to the food. Chefs should take some time rethink their ideas of plating.! Also there should be seasoning on the protein being served not just all the flavor in the sauces. If you are gonna serve veggies with no seasoning at least have salt and pepper on the table

    Helena Modern Rivera is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the incredible energy of the restaurant. The ambience was modern yet inviting, setting the perfect mood for a night out. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the chef’s skill and creativity. The drinks were equally impressive—craft cocktails that were both visually stunning and delicious. Our experience was elevated even further by our waitress, Christina. She was attentive, warm, and had fantastic recommendations that enhanced our meal. Her energy matched the lively atmosphere of the restaurant, making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our visit. Helena Modern Rivera is a must-visit for anyone seeking amazing food, drinks, and an unforgettable dining experience. We can’t wait to return!

    Too loud, lights were too bright. If you’re going on a date, don’t recommend. Food is great, though.

    The food abs drinks were terrible! Not only were they very bad but they cost about double what any normal restaurant would charge. Save your money and go elsewhere. Our entire group doesn't even like to talk about the experience bc it was so awful.
