Best Seafood Restaurants in Riverside

The whole nine, from start to finish. I am not a big restaurant guy, but loved every minute. I was with a lovely woman, so that helped😊, and maybe biased this review. She had scallops and risotto, I had lobster linguini. She had the silly, tasty, and exciting bubbly berry cocktail (feat. dry ice!), I had the pineapple picante. We were pleasantly full, so we passed on dessert, but we read the menu and enjoyed that. Everything was just about as good as I could have wanted. Food prep and delivery: fast, courteous. Scallops seared perfectly. Solid chunks of tender lobster in tomatoey sauce. Picante cocktail with perfect Scovills. Wait staff and hosts put up with my attempts at humor. It was a great way to come into town, warm up up on a cold night, smile and be taken care of.

Everything was good. The food portions were a bit big, but probably suitable for a larger group.

So many memories here and really sad that it’s all coming to an end. I couldn’t possibly let this restaurant go out of business without one less spin. Thanks for all the good times.

We decided to eat out for Christmas. Joining me for dinner was my brother and daughter. We arrived for our 4:30 pm. dinner reservations and were seated at our table quickly. The restaurant was not crowded.i remember thinking we came at a good time. We were greeted by our Kemara W. she was very patient with us as we order our dinner and drinks. After we received our drinks I noticed that it was taking a long time for appetizers to arrive (about 20 to 30 minutes). The appetizers were hot and delicious. However, I was disappointed in my lobster bisque. It was cold and no pieces of lobster meat. The waitress did apologize for the soup arriving late. We had an extremely long wait for entrees. Of course all of our entrees included a lobster tail. My lobster tail was under cooked. So I took it home reheated it (who whould want to that)? I have been dreaming of a tasty lobster since I made the reservations. We were told that some members of the cooking staff were new. However, Christmas evening was not a time for new staff. You want your " A" staff on so your customers will want to return. It whould have been nice if the manager was there to oversee everything.

The hostess cancelled my rsvp when I called & told her I was running a few minites late & was driving. I had to pull over & reenter my reservation. She cancelled it again. ??? Had to pull over & add again...I think she finally got it, that I was on my way.
