    We were in Little Rock for the weekend and the family wanted Italian. We chose Rivera based on reviews and are we glad we did! The shop is unassuming but once you walk in, you know you're in an Italian restaurant. The interior is very relaxing and inviting. We were seated quickly by a very nice hostess. I went to wash my hands in their restroom which was very nice and clean (I know weird detail but really appreciated) . Upon my return, I saw a basket of rolls they had brought out; the rolls were homemade and legit. We ordered calamari and cheese garlic bread for appetizers. For entrees, we had the kids Alfredo fettuccine, bolognese and loaded spaghetti. They were all wonderful, especially the bolognese which my wife rated one of two best in the 'States. For desert, we split a limoncello cake which was superb. To top it off, the check was very reasonable. The serving size for the food was large (we all finished about a 1/3 of each of our entrees and appetizers). Oh, and their soup, a basil tomato, and Caesar salad were amazing, too! We definitely will return next time we are in Little Rock. Thanks, Riveras!!

    The service was amazing and so was the food! They definitely need a bigger building but I have no doubt that they are well on their way to getting that at the rate they are going. The air conditioning was terrible but the food and service were so good, it didn't even matter. I will definitely be back, preferably in the winter though.

    So delicious. I've lived in NLR since 2009 and I've never known this restaurant existed but I am so glad I found it. It is small and intimate, and the service and food were 10/10. I had the lasagna and my child has the spaghetti and meatballs. The portions were generous. My husband enjoyed the chicken parm. The rolls that they bring out were amazing and their red sauce was so flavorful. Highly recommend!

    Ordered takeout and it was very tasty! Ordered the veal parmigiana with vodka sauce. I even ordered the lemoncello dessert which was top notch. Inside looked busy when I picked up the meal and the waitresses were friendly.
