We just received the best pizza from Rivas 4/18/26. When I say best. Fresh ingredients, perfect crust. Only pizza we buy. The two olive girls. Thank you. read more

my favorite pizza spot in Lancaster, hands down! Consistent, thicker crust, cheesy, perfect Buffalo pizza!

This will be my go to place for pizza and wings. The pizza sauce is the best I have had and the wings were done to perfection. Great job!!

Best pizza in this area. It's always delicious and very reasonable. We never have leftovers. I have been buying their Pizza since they opened. I recommend them to everyone. read more

This was our first time ordering from Riva's and I'm glad we did! Today was our daughters socially distanced graduation and the first time we could have family come over because of covid. We ordered from Riva's and even though it was a bigger order it was done in 20 minutes and when we pulled up they met us in the parking lot asked our name and brought the order to the car! Talk about service! Everyone enjoyed there lunch!! read more

Horrible wings, could be the worst I've had in Buffalo... They were not crispy at all. The quality of the wing itself was left with a ton of cartilage still needing to be trimmed off. read more

This is my go-to pizza place close to home. It's great quality at a decent price. Always hot when I arrive but I always go pickup my order 20m after I order. Love the half-sheet cheese pizzas and it's big for the cost compared to other places. The dough has a nice chew and not too thick. The fried ravioli is so good and crispy. Had a meatball parm sub for the first time and it was amazing. Meatballs were seasoned. Lots of sauce and cheese and the bread was soft on the inside with a crispy crust. Just wonderful food. All pizza places are different and known for their different items and this place has by far always been my favorite for cheese pizza ever since I moved out to Lancaster. read more

So im in Carolinas, but for Christmas i had some food delivered to my sister... delivery was prompt, food was hot and perfect, even a special request was completed!.... She loved the pizza, fish fry and onion rings! read more

Wings are complete trash. No taste and hands down the worst wings I have ever had. I can't believe this place is even in business. Pizza is below average. I feel bad for the people who actually like this place. Your taste buds must be shot. Do yourself A favor and don't waste your money on this horrible quality food. read more

Looking for a pizza and wing place in Lancaster we found this place on the Yelp map and thought we'd give it a try. The wings were small and not crispy like from other wing places and the hot sauce was just ok (1/2 hot and 1/2 medium). The hot was better tasting than the medium IMO. The pizza sauce was very tasty and the pepperoni were nice and curled and crisp. Crust was more on the done side but not burnt. We ordered online and it was simple to do. Because of the whole COVID thing they were doing curbside pick up and an employee came out almost immediately as we pulled in. She was super friendly and quick. Overall this isn't a bad place to get your pizza and wings if you live or are in the Lancaster area just order the wings crispy! read more

Ordered a Greek chicken wrap. It's served ice cold. Ice cold chicken right from the refrigerator is used. Not heated at all. The wrap is ice cold as well. Who wants cold ass chicken read more

Really wish I could have my money back from my previous order. If you deliver a fried meat to me within 45 minutes of my calling it shouldn't be as cold as if it were refrigerated. Very tired of inconsistency here. I have had great food from Rivas in the past but the quality has gone down hill quickly. Also, ordered a wrap that wasn't wrapped . I'll say this again, inconsistency is the biggest issue recently. This place used to be my go-to for delivery but recently it's been off. Please bring back the Rivas we first fell in love with . read more

More pizzerias need to offer thin crust! Soooooo good! I'm sad that their wings got so small. read more

The food here is better than most pizza shops, for sure, but I think the best feature is that you can order your food and pay, online. I'd have to say that at this point, any takeout or fast food restaurant without online ordering, is soon to be history. This is basically a takeout restaurant since there is no seating, but they also deliver. The only downside is that I still had to wait for my food even I preordered for a specific time. read more

Gianni Riva was an amazing winger for the Italian national soccer team, a long time ago. This is not the Pizza equivalent of him. This Pizza was really disappointing, to say the least. I did a Pizza Tour of five local Pizza places I hadn't tried before, and this one came in dead last. However I support family businesses so they will never - or very rarely - score less than a three from me :) I was last here on a Depew-Lancaster pizza tour about 2 years ago. Sad to hear that RJ's (the other iffy pizza on that trip) is closed down, but Riva's remains, and good for them. It's just not my fave. It is, however, on my list to re-try, so I'll give another slice another try soon. It just didn't do it for me. It was lukewarm, it was pretty bland. Buffalo actually has the best Pizza in the world - check my "best Pizza in the world" list to see all the best Buffalo pizza places, lots of my choices are Buffalo based. But this place doesn't really live up to the hype. read more

Great subs and very good pizza. Can't go wrong ordering those items. Friendly service and never have to wait long. The wings leave something to be desired (small), but otherwise a great place to get food in the Depew/Lancaster area. read more

Thank you for my favorite pizza of all! You never let me down. Excellent jib during the pandemic. See you soon #thankyouthursday

This pizza was excellent! Delivered hot and on time. Will definitely be ordering from there again.

Pizza is really good but wings are brutal. CF pizza one of the better ones in area and traditional CP on point.

Best pizza around. We always order a thinner crust and it is perfect. Not too thin and not too bready. Generous toppings and right amount of sauce and cheese. They also have delicious subs. read more

Riva's Pizza is your traditional Buffalo style Pizza. If you are looking for an all around good quality pizza, you just found it! Enjoy!

I ordered a Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad. Salad was made with iceberg lettuce NOT romaine, and it wasn't even the nice part of the iceberg lettuce. it was all the lousy parts in the middle :( Chicken was definitely from a can and NOT grilled C'mon people -- let's do better!!! read more

I'll be honest. The Pizza is GREAT but the wings, NOT so much. The pizza is really good and has quality. The toppings and dough is very good. Can't go wrong with the pizza. The wings on the other hand, sub par. They are the average wings you'll ever get and they are nothing special at all. The wing flavors are the basic bare bones like every chain commercial restaurant so, nothing to write home about. Again the Pizza is Great and amazing! Highly recommend the pizza! read more

Our family has been eating Riva's pizza for years. Not far from our home after the third time we placed an order for delivery, the drivers kept getting here in a shorter amount of time. Typically, it is a 45 minute to a "Within the hour" promise for a pizzaria to deliver but these people pride themselves in being able to get your food to you warm and not burnt. I recommend the cheese and pepperoni pizza which is so dense you are not certain if you want to eat it with a fork or fold it and eat it by hand. Pricing is better than some other local places as well. A good buy and a wonderful timesaver. read more

it's really hard to say what sucks more at this dump. is it the pizza, the ability to take orders or the manager. Today I asked for my delivery to be at 6pm. they dropped it off at 5:30. and when I called the little "manager" said my employee said a time was never given. so I guess that means the employee is always right. not the customer. he asked what I wanted I said bring a new pizza he refused. save your money! read more

When it comes to pizza I'm not sure how in 28 years I haven't tried it from the place. I just aet 18 slices of a large extra pep. I am now addicted and I think this is the best pizza in Buffalo, or maybe I'm just fat and starving but seriously yum yum! read more

Sooo disappointed! Wanted to treat my mom and niece to pizza for dinner we were all sick of red sauce so decided to get their steak pizza which we never had from here before, most steak pizzas come with a cheese or white sauce, their description said "special sauce". Placed the order picked it up and it was just a regular, red sauce pizza with way too many onions and a little bit of steak instead of pepperoni....: wth Riva's! read more

I think Rivas is good and I give them credit for adding different twists on a few subs on their menu. Granted I think they need to expand there menu all around especially with pizzas. More variety is needed everyone likes choices. The pizza itself has a small sweet taste to it and is by no means bland. The pepperoni cooks to a tasty greasy dish full and the sausage is a rockstar there Very tasty! Good solid veggies and toppings. With that being said Rivas is solid at what they do. There A ok with me. read more

Average pizzeria. Pizza is ok, not the best, not the worst. The problem I've had recently is with their wings. The wings used to be decent but now they are very small. Basically ordering smaller wings from supplier but keeping the prices up. I've left other local pizzeria's because of the pigeon wings and Riva's might be next. read more

Riva's is one of the better pizza joints in Northern Lancaster/Depew. Good pizza, subs, etc. But what I like about them? They are one of the very few places to serve "Chicken in a Basket" ...a fried chicken dinner with the appropriate accompaniments. Jacoby's used to do this too until they went under years ago. Only reason for the lack of 5th star? Wings need work. Crisp those suckers up, guys! This is Buffalo! Otherwise, one of my local favorites. read more

Great wings and pizza. Staff super nice and courteous. Online ordering is fantastic! Only issue with online ordering is sometimes you will hit send and then doesn't take you to confirmation page. This happened once and i thought the order didnt go through, never got a confirmation email that order was placed and so i changed plans and went out instead. Two days later i checked my bank account and was charged for the order. Its my fault that i didnt call to make sure but also, they never called me either. If i didnt pay with my saved card and clicked pay in person im sure they would have called me immediately to pay for my order. This error still wont deter me from going there which is a testament how great the food is! read more

Rivas is awesome! They are consistent and if you add comment to make order to your liking i.e. crispy crust, they do it! I see a lot of folks saying the wings are small, they are reasonable and "normal chicken wings." I love Rivas ! read more

Favorite place to order food from. Pizza is amazing, perfect taste. Wings and fingers always cooked perfectly and subs always made with enough toppings. Has an order online function (on website) which makes it convenient. Great staff, and timely delivery. Prices are reasonable. read more

Riva's has very very good food. Employees are plentiful and always willing and attentive to help you. Pizza is always cooked right and great to eat! read more

Have ordered from this place 3 times with mistakes on every order. I went to Nona's and Picasso's with no issues. The owner tries to make blame on his workers and told me to order from other places around. You want fast and wrong orders....ORDER FROM HERE!!! read more

We ordered a pizza and wings last night. Omg, so cheesy. Wings were extra crispy just like we ordered. We will be changing our go to pizzeria to riva's. read more

Beware of online ordering. Sent in my order even got a confirmation email. Called an hour later they said their fax machine was down and didn't have the order. Shame was a fast and convenient way to order but is unreliable at best read more

Rivas pizza is my favorite choice in the area. The crust is fabulous and never too greasy. There are many choices for pizzerias and rivas is a great choice! read more

I work down the street from Riva's and won't recommend it. I have tried this place 3 times and tried to like it but just can't. The first time I ordered a sub and they completely forgot about my order until I arrived. The second time I ordered a sub, they gave me the wrong sub And didn't care when I called them 15 minutes later. I didn't want to order a sub on the third time due to their incompetence so I tried their pizza. They gave me the smallest slices in pizza history. I would have received a bigger slice from a frozen pizza or even Pizza Hut. read more

I ordered a fish sub for lunch last week. I ate half then took the rest home and finished it that evening. It was satisfactory to say the least. Castanzo's rolls seem to me to be particularly good with fried fish. If you're not a fussy eater I would suggest ordering it cheese, tomato, onions, lettuce, and tartar sauce. It is a traditional portable Lenten Friday treat. I know Easter is past, but if I want to order fish again I will just because I like it! Something about fish on Friday just seems like a good idea to me and this sub from Riva's really hit the spot, twice! read more
