This is a review for Samuel's, a reopened restaurant in the Andover Inn. Since their renovation…read moreand reopening, they aren't taking reservations so went early before 7pm and got a table immediately. The menu is standard with daily specials. Had the Pork Belly starter and the Crab Cake entree, both of which were excellent! On our table we also order the burger and turkey sandwich, both excellent as well. I was very seduced to try the steak special, but we were making steaks at home the next day so will have to come back to try it here. The server was very knowledgeable about the bar selections for beers and wine and also about the menu and specials. We got here early, at 5:30, to beat the 7pm crowd and already the parking was filling up. It was the week with the below zero temps, so even the short walk was brisk. I've stayed at the Andover Inn a couple of years ago, and the contemporary charm of NE is still there, and Samuel's is a very very amazingly good!

Only missing the impromptu dance floor up front as the DJ came on. The service was amazing, and maybe it also made a difference that it's hard to find good service anywhere around here.

And we interacted with neighboring tables on both sides to recommend (when asked) the oysters, and when one received a drink with a big smoke bubble that created a magical flow of smoke when it burst. French inspired drinks and food were fantastic and interesting. The French 75 menu was so interesting-- choose your flavor and your bubbles. I tried two, the classic with rosé was so pretty, and the honey lavender with base level champagne was delicious. The raw oysters were to die for! Perfect little pop of acidity with other flavors delicately added and perfectly balanced. The oysters Rockefeller were also perfectly delicious. The foie gras is not something I would normally eat, but my boyfriend loves that stuff so we went with it. I enjoyed it more than he did. It was not a classic foie gras, it was smoother with a creamier texture and more buttery flavor. Eating it with the fig jam and "light as clouds" toast made it absolutely delicious! I enjoyed every minute and mouthful--would definitely seek this place out again even though I live an hour away! We enjoyed ourselves too much to take pictures!

Complimentary breakfast is standard but fine for what it is. Hotel seems well kept and clean. One tip, if it rains avoid parking in the rear parking lot. A creek runs behind the hotel and when it crested overnight some cars were stuck in deep water... the hotel offered to help retrieve cars so folks wouldn't need to walk through water approaching knee level. They should have warned folks at check in

This review is for La Riveira Events Function Hall. This place is horrible. I'll start off by…read moresaying that we had an RSVP of 100 and were quoted that 120 people would fit in this space. Absolutely not correct, this space is so small, I'd say maybe 50-60 people comfortably. Trying to locate the hall was an issue due to poor signing on the street, the hall is in the back. For a place that quoted 120 people, their parking lot sucks. We had to double/triple park cars to make the space work since there were no lines for parking. Our guests did not have any space to dance and we booked the event for a baby shower. We went in the morning of at 10am to set up, none of the tables and chairs were out yet. They didn't have anything ready for us although saying that it would be ready the night before. The covers for the chairs and tables weren't even ironed. The bathroom smelt of toilet water, no refreshers. We had to ask several times for them to refill the toilet paper and put paper towels in the bathroom. No paper towels were ever put in the bathroom the entire night! Just poor service. Absolutely expensive and outrageous pricing for a function hall that came with close to nothing. She said we would have food tables, not true we had to bring our own. They didn't have a liquor license and did not serve any soft drinks even for the kids, we had to bring everything ourselves which added to our financial burden. Not to mention, we were unexpectedly charged an extra $250 for "security" who did nothing but open and close the door. Horrible experience, I would not book again nor refer to anyone. Expensive as hell with nothing to show for it. Only good thing was that we were able to provide our guests with our own food.
