A Culinary Gem in Riva – Simply Outstanding
During our two-month stay in Riva, we explored a wide variety of restaurants — some forgettable (like La Corte), others memorable.
But one experience stood head and shoulders above the rest: La Berlera.
From the moment we arrived, we knew this would be something special. The ambience is elegant yet relaxed, the service flawless, and the cuisine nothing short of world-class.
Reservations? Effortless. A quick, friendly exchange via WhatsApp was all it took — simple and welcoming from the start.
The dishes at Berlera are a masterclass in refinement and creativity. Each plate is beautifully presented and bursting with flavor — a true feast for all senses. What truly sets Berlera apart, however, is its exceptional service.

We had an absolutely outstanding dinner at Ristorante La Berlera last night. Dining inside a cave-like setting was already a unique and romantic experience, but everything else—from the food to the service—exceeded expectations.
The beef ribs were melt-in-the-mouth perfection, full of rich flavor and cooked to absolute tenderness. The shrimp was incredibly fresh, and the battered fried vegetables turned out to be a surprising highlight—crispy, light, and bursting with flavor. Truly a gastronomic experience from start to finish.
Our waitress was exceptional—she not only provided warm, attentive service but also recommended wines and dishes that we might not have chosen ourselves, and they turned out to be fantastic. Every suggestion she made was a pleasant surprise, and clearly reflected her deep knowledge of the menu and local wines.

Read moreThis is the best restaurant I’ve been to in Riva! The location is picturesque and the outdoor seating area is outstanding. It’s the most wonderful place to have a meal. The staff are extremely courteous, polite, friendly, and attentive. I don’t have all the names of the kind staff but Federico was especially lovely, attentive, friendly and also very funny! My friend and I absolutely enjoyed every moment of our time here. We had the beef dish upon recommendation by one of the staff. It was an off-menu item and absolutely incredible! The food was so tasty, perfectly cooked and the prices are so reasonable too. I love Riva del Garda and this is restaurant is my favourite. To the chef, all the beautiful staff, and especially Federico, I cannot wait...
