I'd give Riverside Restaurant a solid 4.5 stars based on our breakfast visit…read more I ordered the chilaquiles, and they were excellent, flavorful, still pleasantly crunchy where they should be, and just a really strong version of the dish. Definitely the standout of the table for me. Service was friendly and expedient, which I always appreciate in the morning when everyone is trying to get caffeinated and out the door. My companions ordered the protein bowl, which was a hearty mix of grains and grilled vegetables with your choice of tofu or egg. It leaned a little bland flavor-wise, but it did exactly what it needed to do: provided a filling, healthy base for a full day of activity in Hood River. Not every dish was a knockout, but overall it was a very solid breakfast spot with fair pricing at about $18 per dish.

We arrived at about 4:40 pm. Their happy hour runs until 5:00 pm. We asked the server about…read moreordering off the happyhour menu and he said we couldn't. One of the members of our group told him that she was told that we could order until 5:00 pm. Server said OK and left. He didn't come back until after 5:00 and took the happy hour menus and said we couldn't order off of that menu. It was pretty much down hill from there on for me. The food was OK nothing to write home about. I had lemonade for dinner it was $6.00 a glass and if you wanted another glass it was 6.00 again. They also included the tip on your bill and it was 22%. The server did not earn that high of a tip.

We placed an order the night before Thanksgiving for delivery to our vacation rental for one pizza…read more It stated when I placed the order that it would be an hour wait time, which is what I expected on a probably busy night before a holiday. After an hour we called to check on our pizza and were told that they didn't see the order and would check and call us back. I then called again and asked about the order and asked for the order just to be refunded at that time as it was after 7pm. We left to go get food and while we were out I received a call from my brother stating that the pizza had arrived. The owner made the pizza, delivered it to us and proceeded to refund us for the order as well. In my opinion that is going out of your way to make it right, it was unnecessary for him to drive the pizza to us himself and then not charge us for it. I would love to try this location again the next time we are on the mountain to give them a second try.

Small, intimate restaurant = a few four tops and two tops…read more Good Lord we ARE impressed! Dining here was a delightful experience = entering a small, obscure restaurant with wonderful staff (thank you Jessica), and *absolutely out of this world delicious food is such a perk! For starters, we had the bruschetta, which was fresh and delicious. From there we moved on to the house salad, with blue cheese dressing. For our mains; (the real) Mr. Wonderful had the chicken parmigiano and I had the lasagna. Generous servings of incredibly superb food. I usually prefer my own lasagna but actually liked this one better. One of us was able to enjoy coffee and a cannoli, (it wasn't me) I brought home leftovers. We would seriously drive back to Goldendale, Washington, just to eat at D'Avanzo's and highly recommended this little gem!

We shared all the items, and we were glad we did, so we got a little taste of everything. The raviolini and the cavatelli were tied for my two favorites, but I enjoyed everything we had. This tiramisu was probably the best I've ever had, and the olive oil cake was something I'd never tried, and I found it to be tasty. The service was great. The host and the servers were all very polite and attentive. I made a reservation online, and I was glad I did because the restaurant really filled up fast. I enjoyed the ambiance. The restaurant had a clean decor. It was a cozy space. The restaurant was located in a neighborhood setting. There was ample parking. I look forward to returning in the future.

Top to bottom it was such a filling meal. For entrees my wife got the risotto and I got the chicken. Massive portions and again, delicious. For desert we got the tiramisu and the canoli- we were sooo full I felt like I needed to be rolled out of there. We will definitely be back and it was incredible.

There was a misunderstanding with our reservation and they got us in! Feel so fortunate. I would definitely drive out here for dinner! Love the ambience and the service was great.

Will definitely return to try different things. The server was friendly and attentive. There is plenty of seating, and a great deli counter as well.
