La Riviera at Martin Place is simply exceptional. Fresh pasta cooked to perfection, authentic Italian flavours, and outstanding quality in every dish. You can truly taste the passion and care behind the food, every bite feels like a journey back to Italy. What makes the experience unforgettable is the hospitality. Andrea and Luca are amazing: warm, professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They make you feel not just like a customer, but like a valued guest, with a level of service that is rare to find. Beautiful location, elegant yet relaxed atmosphere, impeccable service, and food that truly impresses. A big wow from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and memorable Italian experience in the heart of Sydney ๐ฎ๐นโจ
We had a great night at la Riviera. Great food and a nice atmosphere. The experience was mostly amazing due to our great waiter Thomas. He was kind, professional, on the spot but still with a touch of humor. He exceeded expectations!!
Firstly I want to say that we had the ABSOLUTE best experience with choosing La Riviera as our intimate wedding venue. From the beginning, owner Kevin was incredibly accomodating, kind and responsive. It made planning our wedding breeze and makes us want to do it all again! The venue is so stunning and exactly the vibe we were after - candlelit, romantic and moody. The restaurant is already so beautifully decorated so there wasnโt much we needed to add! The food was also highly impressive and we couldnโt fault any dish - my personal highlights were the spanner crab tagliatelle, wagyu tonnato, Cappellacci and also my fave lychee Martinis! Last but not least, the hardworking and friendly staff. Dressed impeccably and the best service, always topping up our drinks and helping out when our candles burnt out. I had so many of our guests reach out to me specifically to compliment the service. Huge shout out to Linda who helped get an espresso martini stain out of my wedding dress at the end of the night! All in all, we could not recommend this place enough and we hope business continues to flourish โค๏ธ
I had another wonderful lunch at Riviera Dining โ excellent food and attentive service. This was my second visit, and it was just as enjoyable as the first. A consistently great experience, and Iโll definitely be returning!
I booked here to celebrate my friends engagement and it couldn't have been better. The interior and ambience was incredible and the food was gorgeous. I particularly enjoyed the Tamara, Lobster pasta, Millefeuille and the Chocolate cake which was divine. What truly elevated the entire experience was our incredible server, Andrey. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. He was attentive without being intrusive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and offered thoughtful recommendations that we absolutely loved. Andrey anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, ensuring everything flowed smoothly throughout the night. His warmth, professionalism, and sincere care made the evening feel truly special and memorable. We couldnโt have asked for better service, it felt like having a host rather than just a server. You're an asset to the La Riviera team, Andrey. Will absolutely return! :)
