I regret to say that I cannot provide any assessment of the food quality at this establishment, as my visit was cut short by the unacceptably rude behavior of what I assume were the owners or management staff.Service & Hospitality: In all my travels throughout Italy, I have consistently experienced the warm hospitality this country is famous for. Unfortunately, this restaurant provided the singular exception. The staff's behavior was shockingly unprofessional and discourteous - a stark contrast to the Italian hospitality standards I've come to expect.The Incident: Upon arrival, we were offered a table that was visibly unclean. When we politely requested to be seated at a different table, we were met with hostile resistance. Rather than addressing our reasonable concern about cleanliness, the management chose to escort us out of the establishment. Apparently, basic hygiene standards that would be unacceptable elsewhere were deemed perfectly adequate here.Overall Impression: The aggressive and unwelcoming attitude displayed by the management raises serious concerns about their overall approach to customer service and quality standards. If this is how they treat potential customers, one can only wonder about the attention they pay to food preparation and kitchen cleanliness.Recommendation: I strongly advise avoiding this establishment. There are countless other restaurants in the area that will treat you with respect while serving quality food. Save your money and your time for a place that values its customers.Would I return?...
Read moreAn interesting menu, well-prepared and served by younger staff. No wine list offered but the “homemade” wine is worth a try. We enjoyed it. Unfortunately smoking is allowed and it ruined our experience partially. Tables are relatively close together and the chances someone blows smoke up your nostrils is not unthinkable. There are many solutions to this issue, unfortunately none were applicable here. Staff, as mentioned, is young and relatively inexperienced. They make up for that with enthousiasme and willingness to please. All in all a good experience that would have been great were it not for the smokers. No stars deducted as this is an issue all around Riva. So yes:...
Read moreSono uscito da circa mezzora da questo ristorante, prenotato oltre un mese fa, in vista di un weekend con la mia compagna sul Garda trentino. Credo sia stato il peggior Capodanno della mia vita! Voglio premettere che non è mia intenzione schernire o deridere il lavoro altrui, ma vedersi servire piatti SCANDALOSI, incredibilmente mal cucinati, merita una recensione adeguata. Siamo arrivati alle 20.15 e siamo usciti prima delle 22.30!! Servizio da trattoria di bassissima lega. Piatto di antipasti immangiabili: cestino di pane bianco secco, freddo e durissimo. Crocchette di patate dolcissime, una fetta di crudo banale! I primi? Un risotto vergognoso: sarebbe dovuto essere con il pesto ma era pallido e insipido. Niente sale, niente mantecatura, non andava giù. Altro primo con ragù di coniglio, passabile. Era dagli anni ottanta che non vedevo due primi serviti nello stesso piatto! Il filetto di maiale non era male, rosa al punto giusto ma un piatto con insalatina scondita, peggio che in ospedale! Dolce tra i peggiori mai mangiati. Consistenza strana, solo sapore di limone, non menzionato. Tutto servito tipo pranzo di lavoro. Con la scusa che alle 24 ci sono i fuochi di sacrificio in paese, i hanno servito in due ore!! E menomale perchè non vedevamo l ora di uscire!! Prima, però, un caffè..alla tedesca: lunghissimo e senza sapore!! Credo il format sia: tedeschi e stranieri avanti tutta!! Salvo la gentilezza dei titolari, ma una cucina così è una vergogna per la...
