After enjoying a nice stroll down the pier int he early evening, my wife stopped at Riva for a fish dinner. We had a wonderful experience. The restaurant is casual with very reasonable prices to match. Views from the window-side tables are superb, particularly around...More

If I had not read the reviews before visiting, I'm sure I would have liked this restaurant better. Earlier in the day I'd enjoyed such great service at Firefish, that it seemed like the service here was slow and sparse. I think my server meant...More
I am sorry that service wasn't up to your standard, Biff. While it is possible you got a newer server, I would have appreciated it if you did bring it up to a manager. That way, we could have gotten feedback in the moment on...More
When we arrived, there was about a 20-minute wait for a table with a view so we decided to sit at a hightop near the bar but continued to deliberate about being moved to the main dining area. After going back and forth with the...More

My husband and I went here for dinner one evening while visiting the San Francisco area and could not be more delighted with our decision to drive to Santa Cruz. The Wharf in general is a cute little area but this place was phenomenal! We...More
Lori, I'm so thrilled you and your husband decided to make the trek to Santa Cruz! It's wonderful that the calamari, crab sandwich, and even our gelato could impress. Hope you had plenty of time to take in all the wharf has to offer. Safe...More
We followed rave recommendations from some folks on the pier so we had expectations of a good meal. The stated wait time was 35 min and we were seated in 15 so off to a good start. Our server was pleasant enough but seemed to...More
First off, Paul, I have to thank you for giving us a try while on the wharf. While I am glad service was initially prompt, I do apologize if there was a wait for your drinks and we made a mistake with your grilled shrimp...More
We enjoyed our lunch at Riva's Fish House. This is not a big or fancy place but there was a very friendly atmosphere, good food and good service. Parking was plentiful but we were also there in the off season.
