I went here at lunch time on a Saturday and it was very busy, but still the staff managed to put on…read morea really good show. They were very attentive and fast even with the full house. The interior is classy and the soup I ordered was very nice. On the down side my Philly sandwich was just OK and, although tasty, the small portion of chips did not seem worthy of the €3 fee. Other meals I spied did look good so I still suggest you check it out. Some nice seating, both indoor and outdoor, could make it the ideal spot for a coffee also. It's a really nice place with great service and a good menu. My only concern would be price.

Had dinner with 3 friends while in Dundalk overnight. We fell across Riva based on a recommendation…read morefor good fish and chips. Sadly, my order was a disaster. But it's partly my fault for ordering 2 starters when the main dishes are their better plates. Lesson learned. The pan-fried risotto cake was a bland mix of tomato and rice, topped with a sad portion of aubergine. The Cesar salad was bitter and poorly dressed with an un-bendable Parmesan crisp and a stale, giant crouton. Really bad. I asked for the salad without chicken but the waiter nor the menu mentioned that the greens were covered in bacon bits. From the time the dishes were first served to the time we could flag down service, my companions were 3/4 of the way through their meal. The waiter also made a stink when I sent it back. In contrast, my friends liked their meals. The "deconstructed" fish and chips aren't deconstructed in any way. The chips are oven-baked so they aren't crisp - ask for them well done. Bacon was snuck into the peas too. The salmon was fresh and rich. It came on top of some sort of potatoes which were pretty much ignored, as the fish was far better. The best dish (and what I really wish I had ordered!) was the "special" chicken in a tarragon cream sauce. The mashed potatoes were divine. And that sauce... To salvage my meal, we tried the "real" death by chocolate dessert. For €7 it was just an undercooked piece of cake with some watery fudge sauce on the plate. There was no trace of the chocolate dirt or other fancy decadence the menu promised. Service was polite but slow. The waiter was kind enough to ask if/when we were done with our appetizer so he could bring the entrees. However, he did give me attitude when I sent back a salad - and I didn't even ask for a replacement. Geez.

This is my favorite place to eat in Dundalk!…read more My other half and I just LOVE it. The food is absolutely superb. Portion sizes are great. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Its great value. We had a starter and main along with one drink each and it was just under €50. Excellent value. The decor and atmosphere are just lovely.

We were invited guests and had been told that this place was as good as Fitzpatrick's without the…read morehigh cost. It's not as good. That said there were lots of five star elements here but while I settled on four stars I've knocked one off for reasons that follow. If you hit Fitzpatricks on a good day it's exceptional and the difference in cost between these two places is not significant. The key problem with the food put before me was lack of proper seasoning. I had scallops to start and they were very good indeed. The seasoning in this dish relied on chorizo 'crumb' and chorizo featured in other dishes. It added to taste but not enough so chef needs to be brave. There was no sea salt on the table and when you offer crab claws, prawns pil pil and scallops then tables should have sea salt, black pepper and tabasco as norm with smoked paprika, if required. My mushroom pasta main was a generous portion but very poor tasting. The pasta wasn't fresh but a dried product - the quality could have been better so go for the higher cost bronze die cut pasta. My main was not an enjoyable eat. I left half of it - there was not enough cream, not enough butter and not enough high quality parmesan and just not seasoned; great parmesan alone with sea salt and pepper would have greatly benefited the dish. My wife had the Caesar salad and a hake main and she thought both very good. One of the party shared a sage croquette and it tasted excellent. The restaurant was bright, airy and warm but the problem with seating is that four of us were at a small corner table so it wasn't as comfortable as I'd like. What I really disliked was one of the party - a customer that makes paydays - asked for onion rings with his main and he was refused. Yet onion rings come with their steaks. What's the problem - just not good enough really so a star off but I'd still like to know why not and I know Fitzpatrick's certainly wouldn't refuse? The staff were ace and very attentive. We didn't have desserts and the cappuccino was just about ok and needs focus to improve which isn't hard. Fitzpatrick's do do great coffee. We will likely return as two where I can be more fussy about the food. In fact I look forward to it.
