We came for lunch and the food and service were both amazing! I absolutely LOVE octopus, and they cooked it perfectly! I'm typically disappointed any time I eat octopus in the US, but Riserva knows what they're doing! We also ordered the braised short rib Hummus, and it's the best I've ever had. My boyfriend HATES hummus but he loved it, and the mussels that he ordered, that he asked if we could cancel his birthday reservations at a different restaurant(5 days later). So our SECOND trip in the same week, we ordered the Hummus again, then he ordered the braised short rib and I ordered the Diver Sea Scallops. everything was equally as amazing as our first experience. SO happy we came across this cute little place! Also realizing I forgot to take a picture of the scallops. It was 3 huge scallops on a bed of risotto! FABULOUS! read more

It's epic, and for good reason! As soon as the door opens, the lovely "Bela" greets you with a warm smile. The setting was great, but we preferred a different area. Despite the busy atmosphere, she managed to fulfill our needs after getting approval from manager Alec. Our server, Miguel, was a young, energetic, and polite young man who took great care of us during dinner. Our first experience at this place was truly delightful and stood out from our visit to another place. Pairing a great Spanish wine with the succulent, highly-recommended Short Rib Hummus and fresh house pita is a match made in heaven. A Turmeric Chicken Kebab - Steak Shawarma - of robust flavors that will leave you wanting more. Not to mention the incredible flavor explosion from the Cardamom Date Cake - perfectly paired with an excellent espresso coffee! The visit from Alec, our manager, was a wonderful surprise, and the visiting team was extremely grateful. We've found a new spot where we're always welcome to enjoy great food with our new friends. At the end of the day, it's not about the food or the ambiance - it's about the friendships you form, including with the customers. Five stars, well and truly deserved It's clear that this is a major comeback. for unforgettable read more

This place is slept on. It's never very busy but I'm telling you it's fantastic. Good cocktails and wine selection, open air bar if the weather is nice and a patio. We LOVE the short rib hummus - life changing and super fluffy pita. We had the sweet potato this time and it is going on our must order every time list. All their sauces are very unique and flavorful. It's not cheap, but the quality of the food is worth the prices. read more

I have been here many times but last night our server was less than desirable. He had no business waiting on people .no kind of personality what so ever .the food was amazing .I do wish there was more selections of wine by the glass . And when I asked for another glass of wine he asked me if I needed a clean glass? Yes I would ? This is an really great atmosphere and good food but need to find some happy employees. read more

Love the flavor-filled choices for both food and drinks. Servers were personable and even verified with the kitchen about accommodating my diary/gluten allergy. In fact, for the dip trio we ordered, they switched out the eggplant dip (which had dairy in it) with a double muhammara dip and brought me extra veggies. For the short rib hummus, they put the feta on the side for my husband to enjoy, along with the pit bread, all of which was fresh. Riserva is perfect for a lunch meeting, date or just wanting great food in a very cool venue. The Alfonso's Cup cocktail was refreshing, however, the leading and prominent flavor was ginger beer. Will definitely be returning. read more

Service was great. I was greeted as soon as I walked in, sat at the bar. It was cold, but I was there shortly after opening, so I will let it slide. Okay, I went by myself, so I just ordered the grilled octopus. That muhamarra was sooooo good. It was perfect with the soft pita break. The potatoes were so good, crispy on the outside and soft inside. Actually I've been thinking about since yesterday. The octopus had a strong char, but it was cooked to perfection, not chewy and rubbery. When you eat it with the muhamarra and pita, it's really good. Business was not booming and that made me kinda sad, I hope it was because I was there early. The food, service, and ambiance was pretty incredible. I will definitely return with a group so we can order so much more! read more

Came to update my review from last year. I am so happy to say I LOVED my second experience at Riserva. I was disappointed that I was disappointed with my first experience, but granted it was right around when they first opened. We went for lunch and tried a few different items. We started off with the short rib hummus, then had the scallop risotto and lamb chops for our entrees. Our first mistake last year was NOT trying the short rib hummus. It is DELICIOUS! The meat is so tender and the hummus is so creamy and flavorful! The pita is so soft and the perfect carrier for the dish. All I'm gonna say about the scallop risotto is GET IT!! It's SOOO creamy, warm, flavorful, and decadent! The scallops were cooked to perfection and just melted in your mouth. The pomegranates added a sweet texture to the dish that just elevated the flavors. The lamb chops were savory, cooked to our liking (medium rare) and sat on a tangy/spicy sauce and yellow rice. definitely worth the try. We also got two amazing mocktails (love a place that has great options for delicious mocktails): the Silk Road and the big fat Greek mocktail. Both were incredible! Silk Road was milky, creamy, and sweet. My husband was a BIG fan of the big fat Greek mocktail too! Service was great and the place looks great as always. Very well lit and they have a beautiful bar. The restaurant is in a great location as well. We will definitely be back for more, we want to try the octopus for sure next time!! read more

It has taken me some time to actually write this review because I am still appalled and utterly dumbfounded by the lack of hospitality and the barbaric way we were treated. On December 12th, 2025, my sister, my niece, and I made the unfortunate decision to have dinner around 8:45 pm. I had seen multiple glowing reviews online, and their menu sounded like the perfect thing to eat. You see, that night we had just arrived at our hotel after a 10-hour drive. We were all exhausted, and frankly, we didn't have the energy to get all dressed up just to go to dinner. That and the fact that their website/Instagram didn't mention a dress code. I had made a reservation about an hour beforehand, since it was a Friday, and, since we were starving, we didn't want to wait very long. Once we arrived, the hostess was very kind. Took us to our table and told us our waiter would be there in a few minutes. We sat there for 15 minutes, looking at the menu while waiting for him. Now, I personally didn't have a problem with it. Being a waiter is very stressful work, I imagine. And once our waiter did arrive, he looked at us with such a face that I could only describe as disgust. I don't know if it was because of how we were dressed, we were wearing coats, loose-fitted slacks, and loose-fitted sweatshirts. He introduced himself with an uninterested tone and asked us if we would like water. We said yes, with ice if possible. Before I asked about the restaurant's cocktail selection, I asked if he recommended any tropical drinks/something that wasn't very strong. Our waiter, James. Sighed, already frustrated by my question before taking a menu from the table and flipping to the cocktail page, aggressively, I might add. And pointing to the ones that they had. Once I decided on one, he didn't even ask for my id. Not even asking if I was 21 or older. (I had just turned 21 in October) He walked away so fast I swore the ground shook. Another waiter brought our waters without ice. Another twenty minutes passed before he came by with my cocktail and asked, "What would you like." Not a question, but a statement. Curt and crude. His body language suggested that he was uninterested and couldn't care less about what we wanted. The cocktail itself was alright, with cinnamon and a dried orange. Not my favorite or to my taste, but it's all they had. My sister asked about their Patatas Bravas, asking about their portion and if they could do a bigger one (their menu had different prices for the same plate but a bigger portion) James exhaled a heavy breath from his nose before scoffing, saying, "The price that's on the menu is one serving. There isn't a bigger option." Passive-aggressive and utterly rude. I understand that sometimes you have a bad day at work- of all people, I understand that. I was willing to look past it because I understood. But when a group of twenty-somethings was sitting at the table next to us, wearing dresses so short I swear they could've flashed my 16-year-old niece. He approached them with a different attitude. Within two minutes of them being seated, he arrived with a smile on his face, a tray of waters, with ice, I might add. The table next to us had about a million more questions than my sister and I had. Asking about plates and cocktails. And James was more than happy to answer. And when one of the women asked about tropical, fruity drinks. He said that they had an off-the-menu cocktail. Within five minutes, all the while we hadn't even ordered yet, he presented them with a cocktail full of fruit, which frankly looked delicious. And once he had attended his other tables- all within earshot of us, mind you. He was kind, "How's your dinner?" Making casual conversation and complimenting fellow patrons. All with a sincere smile. When we finally ordered, our food came out at lightning speed. I commented on the fast service, and James made a passive-aggressive comment under his breath. "All so you can be on your way." By this point, I was reeling in utter disappointment and sadness. Never in my life had I been treated in such a way in a supposedly upscale restaurant. You'd think it was some 5-star, culinary award-winning place. It was in a shopping plaza next to a 24hour noodle place. We left a very generous $20 tip. My sister suggested we should have left four dollars or even nothing at all. But we left $20. The food was delicious, but the service and lack of hospitality ruined my experience. Not to mention, it was a rough start to our long weekend in Oklahoma. On our way back to the hotel, we asked each other if it was some racist thing, seeing as we were speaking Spanish during our conversation. Maybe about the way we looked? What we wore? As delicious as the food was, we won't be returning. read more

This review is difficult to write. I have wanted to try this restaurant for awhile and finally had the chance this week. First we felt rushed to order and I had to ask for drink and food suggestions. Normally at restaurants of this statue the staff suggests their favorites. There was minimal to no verbal interaction. Unfortunately my fish did not taste fresh so I had to send it back. I never send back food! The waiter was fine with me ordering something else but offered no apology.During our meal we asked for more wine and the response was "Do you want a clean glass?" This question was off putting as typically the bar sends a fresh glass. My second choice for my entree was very good which was the kabob. I loved it but the service and lack of attention to detail really dampened the overall experience. The restaurant is visually appealing and is in a great location. If you go I do recommend the swordfish kabob . It was unfortunate that the service left much to be desired. read more

I kept hearing about Riserva lately, so we thought we would meet some friends here for dinner, and we are so glad we discovered this place. It is located in Chisholm Creek area, which is really turning into quite the fun destination with lots of new places to check out! The atmosphere at Riserva itself is so cool inside, and there is also a great patio for when the weather is nice. Our server was so patient with us as we were catching up with our friends and taking our sweet time deciding all that we wanted to order. He was helpful with suggestions and specials, and he did a great job taking care of us. We ordered several appetizers (Patatas bravas, mezze dip trio, and short rib hummus). The flatbread was piping hot and wonderful with all those dips. My favorite was the red pepper dip on the trio. The eggplant dip was over powered by a smoky flavor, so it was just ok in my opinion. Everything else we had was great! For our main course we tried the harissa shrimp kebab (spicy and flavorful) and the skirt steak shawarma. All in all, we had such an enjoyable evening at this lovely restaurant, and I highly recommend checking it out if you haven't had a chance yet! read more

Came back with my husband for a date night - Saturday night after making reservations for 8:45 pm, and couldn't be happier about the food and service! This was my second time here, but my husband's first. Our server was very friendly and took care of us well. The ambiance was perfect for a date - dark with candles and lighting at each table to focus on the food. I love that this spot is located in Chisholm Creek, very close to us. We enjoyed the short rib hummus, ground lamb flatbread, swordfish skewers, and sweet potato. Everything was delicious and flavorful. My husband loved all the food. I ordered a delicious pear-tasting cocktail, the Sunset Sevilla. Also, as promised per my previous review, the owner gave us free dessert, which I took home and shared with my mom. The cardamom cake is absolutely delicious and had just the right amount of spice to it. The chocolate tort was very rich, so we shared that as well and still have some leftover. Thank you for the wonderful experience again, and also for actually reading my past Yelp review :) Can't wait to be back! read more

Cute restaurant in the Chisholm creek area! After dinner you can walk around and play corn hole or just chill by the fountains. There's also a cute dessert place right across. Ask them about their pita guy.. bc the pita bread is SO GOOD. Every time I go I always order the short rib hummus then eat it in 2 min and order another one. Save yourself the trouble and just order two to start. I also really like the mussels and Spanish chorizo as well as skirt steak shawarma. They call it a tapas menu but each order will really be enough for one person. read more

Overall great: will be back to try more menu items since everything we had was delicious. Service was excellent--she was very courteous and anticipated our needs before we vocalized it. Very efficient service since we were in and out within an hour without feeling rushed (she timed and coordinated our dishes well).

The first review I gave this restaurant was a one star because of lack of professionalism from the manager and greeter of the restaurant. The general manager reached out to me and wanted us to give them a second try. I was hesitant at first, but I believe in second chances. We received exceptional service this time. It appear that there had been some personnel changes since the last visit. The food is amazing and the service was great. The atmosphere is awesome. The new manager Rob was very welcoming and was overwhelmingly apologetic from the last encounter. He treated us with respect and Was very kind. Again, this restaurant has exceptional food and the drinks are so great. Now I can say the service there is also amazing thank you Rob and the rest of the staff for an exceptional evening., Thank you, Mr. Simpson, who made the necessary changes to improve the service at this restaurant. read more

We usually sit at the bar or outside if the weather is nice. The service is always friendly and professional. The drinks are so fresh and fun and very tasty, not like flavored fuel that some places serve. We love the watermelon salad and the short rib hummus with the dreamiest pillow of fresh warm pita bread we have ever had!! You won't be disappointed, it's a great little restaurant. read more

Loved. The ambience is amazing. Loved the indoor-outdoor feel. So open. Busy so I would make a reservation. We had a party of 8. Our waiter was amazing. Answered all our questions. I tried the Big Greek Mocktail. Very refreshing--almost a shrub-like taste. We also tried the trio and I loved the combo of flavors there as well. And, that pita bread. Amazing. For my entrée I wanted to try one of everything. That brings me to my only complaint, I wish there were even smaller plates to mix and match. I went with the roasted cauliflower and I could have eaten a tub of the jalapeno-tahina sauce. I also tried the beet salad. It was good but I would probably try another plate next time. Others around the table tried the sweet and sticky ribs (a huge portion), the polenta and shrimp, the harissa shrimp kabobs, and skirt steak shawarma. Of course we all tried tastes. The skirt steak was fork tender, the ribs were delicious and the polenta was amazing (again). Will be back. read more

Best restaurant in Chisholm Creek, by far. atmosphere 5/5 food 5/5 service 5/5 value 5/5 My favorite thing about coming here is that the food is superb and hanging out on their patio feels like you're in another city, for a moment it can feel like you're on vacation. Get anything with their homemade pitas. They are outstanding. The dip appetizer was a party in my mouth. I loved every. single. bite. For a late lunch two of us had the dip appetizer and split the beef short rib and it was so much food; all of it was lovely. I can't wait to go back. It's not a cheap place, but these days, nothing is. Great place to hangout anytime, but certainly a great date spot too. Way to go, team Riserva, y'all knocked it out of the park. Keep up the great work. April 2023 read more

been here a few times for a light meal and cocktails. our most recent visit stood out to me thanks to their jumbo scallop risotto! one of tastiest scallops ive had, and the risotto was cooked perfectly. we also tried their sticky ribs (optional 3pcs or 5 pcs). the glaze is a tad too sweet for my liking, but the overall taste of the ribs were really good! i tyipcally dont eat lamb either but enjoyed this dish more than i expected. we also had their trio mezze dip - hummus (chickpeas), baba ghanoush (eggplant) & i believe the 3rd dip is an (olive?) tapanade. all really tasty - we will be back! read more

We got there and were seated immediately with our reservation which was nice. The short rib hummus alone might be the reason I'm giving the 5 stars.

Would highly recommend. read more

Amazing short rib hummus and homemade pita! I get this every time we visit. Great craft cocktails too.

Nice place in what appears to be a developing neighborhood. We were seated promptly on a Saturday without a reservation. Server was very informative. The meatball appetizer was excellent.
