Riviera Cafe and Restaurant

One of the best restaurants in Melbourne, The food is truly amazing, The view is really nice, Definitely will go again.

We always drive from so far to come have our favourite Mansaf everr! Always the best quality and tastes so fresh!

The lamb cutlets are a standout dish. Marinated in a mix of Lebanese spices, they are grilled to perfection, resulting in a tender and juicy interior with a slightly charred exterior. The meat is succulent and flavorful, melting in your mouth with every bite.

This place is unbelievably beautiful! Beautiful service, beautiful yummy food! Thank you Firas!

Delicious mansaf, fattoush, cheese pastry and garlic potatoes. Been a few times and it's been consistently great.

Nice service and views also! I like ordering a la carte I find it better value.

Spacious, tasteful place with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Offers great views of the river and it's goings on. Friendly and attentive staff.

DISRESPECTFUL MANAGEMENT AND GLASS IN FOOD
Broken pieces of ceramic in our food, told manager and BLAMED US! Laughed it off and told us that they don’t have black plates. Told us that out of 1000 people we are the only ones that had a problem with our food and how could this happen.
RETHINK BEFORE YOU GO HERE

Outdoors seating area and cutlery was not clean and service was slow. Food was a bit too pricey for the quality of experience. However, the scenery was beautiful.

Best foods and nice view
So shisha the best good service
I can’t wait to come back again

Food was delicious and the drink were great too. We went quite late and it seemed staff were more occupied with closing down and cleaning than serving us. Overall the experience was enjoyable, could have been better tho.

Had a great meal here, amazing chicken wings and loved Lebanese cocktails. Special thanks to Sarah who served us today. Highly recommend checking out this place.

The place is beautiful but the service terrible. The staff are not well trained. Ages waiting for the food. Such a shame!

One of the worst services ever, I have been to many restaurants and I had high hope coming to Riviera but it turned out to be one of the worst experiences ever, especially that they don't show any respect to the customers.

The food was great, even though it was a bit pricey. The waiters could be more friendly aswell, otherwise not a bad experience

Great views of the river, great tasting foods. However the tables are all cramped and it’s very loud in there.

Lovely ambience, delicious food and damn good fries. Good place for families, to meet up friends.

We came to Riviera for drinks but were waiting more than twenty minutes to be served. When we approached the waitress, she was very dismissive and rude saying “can’t you see how busy we are? ” There was only two tables of people. Very unprofessional and no customer service skills. Would not recommend this place.

Place was extremely crowded food was average and service was very slow. Had to get up to find wait staff and the only reason our plates got cleared was because we took then over to the trolley they had for dirty dishes.

Overpriced! $12 for a glass of juice. Falafel and little spinach pastry things were rock hard. Pretty basic and not really restaurant quality.
Was seated unaware I'd be surrounded by tables and people using shisha. Would have been better if they were outside given they have a decent covered outdoor area.
Don't know what was in the Shisha but not enthused by a smoke filled area that smells weird while I'm trying to eat.

The only thing this place has is a good view…. And the COKE NO SUGAR is amazing.

PS.please don’t waste your money, it’s $30 for a plate and I basically didn’t touch anything.
