Osteriva - Menu

Nice easy dinner friendly staff and lovely homemade pasta dishes. Families with young children there too. Happy vibe and nothing a problem. Extensive wine list.

il cibo era grande, dall'antipasto al secondo tutto il nostro piacere. Non abbiamo assaggiato i dolci, ma non credo che saremmo delusi! conto giusto, personale gentile, sarei felice di tornare.

Historic small restaurant with authentic local fish food. The meals were simple yet full of flavor. elegantly presented. Service is fast and courteous. We came here several times and had a great dinner each time.

We ate here on our visit to Lake Garda. Firstly the wine was very good, all local wines. The food sadly let the restaurant down. Local traditional food but lacked taste and the fish was on the dry side. Maybe we ordered wrongly but both of us left disappointed.

The food is good, nice menu with typical plates of the region. But the service we encountered made the visit to OsteRiva something to forget asap. A waitress that’s is continuously pushing you and obviously being in a hurry to get you out (while the restaurant was open one more hour… So, not really recommended unless they’ve fired the waitress.

Thi is a very nice place located in a small street. It has not lake view but you can find here amazing dishes and nice people. In the menu you can choice between meat and lake dishes, all made with local products. We went for cold cuts, handmade pasta with mushrooms and a trout, everything was so tasty. Wide choice of beers, wine and spirits. After the meal we were also offered an hand made grappa, really impressing taste, well done! I'll come back for sure

We walked by this restaurant on our first evening in Riva and I was enticed by the traditional (and somewhat unusual menu. We decided to have dinner there two nights later and we were rewarded with some very fine dishes. I had ravioli stuffed with local white fish (tasty, cooked to perfection, and served with an excellent, simple dressing. My partner had very flavorful Canederli with speck, a typical dish from Trentino. Our desserts were a semifreddo and a chocolate salami. The latter was by far our favorite of the two (the semifreddo was good, but not as good as the rest of the meal. The wines and grappas were the cherry on the cake of a lovely evening in charming Riva del Garda!

Why this fantastic restaurant is not rated higher than 30th in RdG I do not know! We did t have it on our radar for just that reason but last eve it was jumping and the buzz was tempting so we ventured in they only had a high table next to the bar but we loved that as we felt in the middle of things so when another was offered we chose to stay put. Sausage and tomato thick home cooked spaghetti for wifey and large bread gnocchi with salami and goulash stew (basically stew and dumplings for us brits) both fabulous, a lovely wine from Pisoni (only local wines are on the list which is great) and another local grappa made this a meal to remember and we can heartily recommend OsteRiva service was...

I chose this place because of the reviews on trip advisor. I had used a few recommendations from TA and been very pleased with all of the places I had tried in Riva. This was dinner on our last night there and it was very disappointing especially since there are so many good places to eat in the town. I had the white fish ravioli and Hubby had the lake fish. Both were not very good. The raviolis were dry and Hubby said his fish was mainly bones and also dry also vegetables on the side didn’t taste fresh. The bread had been cut a few hours before so was a bit stale. We had intended having dessert as they did a good looking semifreddo but after the first course we just wanted to go. I asked fo...
