The scallops were divine and I had the chance to enjoy them while the staff cared for my screaming infant Mother's Day weekend. Can you ask for anything more?

Received a gift card for my birthday to be used when we visited Glenwood Springs. Arrived at the restaurant in pouring rain to the warmest and sunniest of welcomes...incredible staff...bistro like atmosphere with interesting art work. Enjoyed the Happy Hour specials (the coconut tempura shrimp & crispy mozzarella) and dinner (veal picatta & parmesan encrusted halibut) were terrific. WONDERFUL evening.

This place was sooooo fantastic! There was cool art of all kinds on the walls, the service was excellent and the food simply delicious. We had drinks and appetizers and the tomato dipping sauce tasted just like a tomato straight off the vine. The razz-tini was yummy. I had seared sea scallops with sauteed kale on top of a mini...

My husband and I take weekend getaways to Glenwood Springs several times yearly, and we love dining at the Riviera Restaurant. The specials are "special", and the menu has an extensive variety. While the outside of the building is dated, don't let that fool you. The inside has a wonderful contemporary ambiance. The bar staff is friendly and welcoming, and... More

This place was recommended by several people at the hotel we stayed in, and I can see why. The service was great, but the food was amazing. The scallop risotto was to die for, the scallops were cooked perfectly. My fiance got the grilled flank steak and it to was spot on with asparagus that was just right and mashed... More

We had heard the restaurant was under new ownership and wanted to try it. Loved it! Loved the $8 Happy Hour Special- glass of wine/beer or house cocktail with an App for $8! Service was beyond excellent. Appetizers were very good- calamari was the best! Dinner salads were huge and fresh and delicious. Entrees were large and very good. Chocolate... More

The Riviera is under new ownership. The Prime Rib is still excellent, but the garlic potatoes we ordered were not garlic potatoes (no garlic at all - just regular mashed potatoes) and there was no creme brulee for desert. We asked for creamy horseradish to go with the Prime Rib, and it tasted like they had added thousand island dressing... More

The food was very good to excellent. My wife and I had different meals. I had the prime rib and she the Halibut. (it was excellent). Naturally we wanted different wines, so we ordered from the wine by the glass list. This was the only disappointment. The quality of wine by the glass was very ordinary. The wine was $7/glass...
