I don't even think that Riva is worth one star because of how bad my experience was...I ate lunch here on a Saturday afternoon with my husband. The service was HORRIBLE!! We waited 10 minutes before our server came over. When we ordered drinks, he brought us the wrong drinks -- not only once, but TWICE!! When I told him the drinks were incorrect, he brushed it aside with a "Whatever!" Our meal had very little flavor (I ordered the chicken pasta, my husband ordered the ribeye) and was overpriced for the portions. I would have rather ate McDonald's than this crap!
Food is good but a bit pricey. We had trouble with the waiter who was not very friendly. Our check came with a 20% gratuity fee already applied to the total even though we had seperate checks. Ended up paying 18% anyway because that is what was stated on the menu regardless of the fact that we had seperate checks. There was no way around it anyway. At least that is what they told us. I will never go there again.
Navy Pier - Taste of Chicago: The 27th Annual Taste of Chicago is here! Starting June 29th - July 8th, mouthwatering foods, live entertainment, and fireworks!
Riva at Navy Pier was wonderful, the seafood was fresh and delicious, the atmosphere is awesome, romantic and the firework display on July 3rd is more than spectacular it is awesome and sensational! The Grant Park Orchestra is still on top!
Come out, bring your family, friends or neighbors, I promise there is something there for everyone you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!
