Tiramisu
Daniella R.

We lived down the street and didn't even know about this till recently husband I wanted something different and we really enjoyed it each order a glass of wine. They do offer a $15 corkage charge. If you want to bring your own bottle. We split a salad and split a pizza both were delicious. I can't rave, enough about the fried olives something different I've never had before. I would come again. My only complaint is they don't take cash (my reason for the four star) and usually I only pay with cash to support small businesses. I did read reviews that it can be chilly inside so I brought a sweater and I'm glad I did.

We came here for Mother's Day for the first time and it was amazing. We ordered the Veggie & Sausage & Peppers pizzas and they were so yummy! The staff here are very welcoming. The ambience is warm and relaxing. We enjoyed the oldies they were playing. We will definitely be coming again for wine and pizza!

Ensalada

Each table has a fresh flower welcoming you to this cheerful and clean establishment. A server greets you with a picture of water and a smile. The staff is extremely knowledgable about the menu and willing to make incredible suggestion. Each pizza is hand crafted and flavorful with both sweet and savory in every bite.

I've never been here and it took me a moment to find the place. Walked in and was seated at the table for two. Please consider adding hooks for purses. The table was so small and there was no way to hang out bags off the chairs. And maybe some bigger glasses for water. The food itself is delicious. We had the fried olives (which is really why I wanted to come here lol) and the sausages and pepper pizza. Everything was great and served still hot. I also had a glass of wine which was delicious. I think maybe I our waiter was still somewhat new because he seemed a little nervous. Overall it was a beautiful and clean restaurant and the food was great! We'll be back again.

I thought that this might be one of my top fav restaurants here in Riverside....but upon going my 2nd time, I thought it was just ok. I'll still round this up to 4 stars since I want to give this another try, perhaps for lunch to try their other specials. First time I went, the truffle pizza and fried olives + almonds were amazing & addictive. Lavender lemonade was refreshing and perfect. Service was top notch, not overbearing or lacking. We regretted not ordering more in fact. Fast forward to more recently, food was okay this time. Service was a bit much....checked on us a lot. Ordered the outpost caesar salad, strawberry shortcake and diavola forte pizza (spicy sausage wasn't very spicy which I liked). Added the crispy chicken to the salad which was extra. It all tasted ok, but not amazing like our last experience. The chicken was sadly dry, not so crispy & on the saltier side. The standout for the salad was the avocado, which broke the monotony of the salad. Got the pepperoni calabrese to go. Pizza was really salty, not great. Could be better....I do like their crusts though. Wish they had pasta too, but focusing on the salads and pizza do make them better than other spots that rather do too much food options. Quite pricey also. I had to be careful with my nut allergies here, but I haven't had any issues so far with letting them know. I really like the styling of this place, aesthetics are quite nice with the common industrial factor. Natural, earthy tones and the green.

Sous Chef Joey is incredibly kind and talented. His cooking style is truly one of the best -- every dish is beautifully decorated and feels like a piece of art. Even though they had already sold out of desserts, he kindly made a tiramisu on the spot just because I asked. That level of care and hospitality really impressed me. I highly recommend stopping by to try their amazing pizza. The dough is fresh, the tomatoes are vibrant, and the homemade sauce is fantastic. Everything tastes like it was prepared fresh that day. Chef Joey is truly an artist in the kitchen and one of the best chefs in downtown Riverside. He is also very friendly and approachable, which makes the experience even better. Thank you, Chef Joey, for the amazing pizza and dessert. I will definitely come back to try more salads and pizza!

A fantastic experience! And Incredible quality food and drinks. Fried olives, burrata plate were exceptional starters! Our server Simon recommended a French beer which was delicious. And our pizzas were outstanding!!

Overall for a newer place it wasn't bad but there are some kinks that still need adjusting. We tried an array of dishes to see what flavors were offered. The decor is very simple and could use some more enhancements throughout the restaurant to give us a better ambiance. Focaccia: 1/5 just pass on this, was not good Bruschetta: 5/5 so fresh and loaded with flavor Fried Olives: 3/5 take or leave Pepperoni Pizza: 4/5 very good flavor some burnt spots on the underside Marg Pizza: 2/5 some burnt spots and lacked toppings, felt messy / rushed Chocolate cake: 3/5 is a crumble style cake would be fit from dense shavings on top to be layered inside for the added texture crunch Beverages: 3/5 lavender lemonade was good, the sour was good, the soda was water/flat. Server: 5/5 Isabelle was very kind and attentive throughout the experience even with the wait being longer than usual Wait time: 1/5 we waited 30mins for apps, which didn't come out all together- the pizza was an hour and 10min wait and didn't come out to ether as well... note we ordered the our entire meal at once Overall we will give this place another shot as it seemed to just be an off night. I do wish they offered cocktails in addition to wine and beer. Hoping to have a better experience next time.

Bruschetta Chicken Sandwich
Jeremy S.

Heard this new restaurant opened up close by and wanted to give it a try. Noticed from pictures and video that the restaurant has a nice aesthetic and good food and I'm glad that I visited. The first thing you notice when you come in is how clean and nice the place is. The restaurant has some nice touches like plants by the front counter and flowers on the tables. I also noticed that they had the same owner as Condron coffee next door and got coffee from there, so that was a good bonus! The menu was a bit limited in variety and was made up of starters, salads, pizzas, and some sandwiches. We went with the fried olive starter, the truffle pizza and a bruschetta chicken sandwich. The olive starter may have been the best part of the meal! It was really good and fried to perfection. The sauce was really tasty and it came with almonds on the side which was a nice touch. The bruschetta chicken sandwich was nice and fresh, the only thing I'd change about it was the flavor was a little bit muted. Felt that the sauce in it could have been seasoned a little bit more. The pizza was where things got a bit interesting. We got the truffle pizza but wanted meat on it so we order a customization with sausage. The server came out with a pizza that didn't have sausage and said that the cook accidentally made it but we would get another one. We didn't complain since we'd get two pizzas! The pizza without sausage was really good. The truffle and honey worked together well and the pizza dough was really tasty as well. When we got the pizza with sausage, the cook delivered it to us personally and apologized for the confusion. The pizza without sausage was good but we noticed that it was missing some cheese and seasoning that the original pizza we got had. It wasn't a big deal but we let the server know and they apologized and let us know that both pizzas would be on the house. Honestly, both pizzas were good so we tried to tell them it was okay but they insisted. Overall, the food was really good. There are some things that went wrong with our order but I think the service here really made up for it. Everyone was really nice and went out of their way to make sure we had a great experience. I also understand that they just opened so they may be working out some kinks too. Had an overall good experience here and look forward to visiting again. A good option for lunch!

Avocado pizza
Deborah N.

This place is hard to find the ones you find it. The food was worth it. The fried olives are so good. I highly recommend in those. My friend had the avocado pizza and it was good, especially since she is vegetarian. I had the specialty pizza with the prosciutto. You needed a little more seasoning and I wish that the prosciutto was crispy. Both of the waitresses were nice and they did offer to let us taste any of the wines. Try it you'll like it.

Appetizers

We only found this place because of Yelp! Literally never heard anyone talking about it and we drove right past the front of it when we had it in the GPS So we circled back behind the buildings and ended up parking by the back door in a handicap spot Which then, unfortunately, made us have to walk all the way through the restaurant to the hostess podium to be walked halfway back through the restaurant to a table. Then we were sat in the middle of the restaurant and every time the front door is opened we could feel the cold air. However, that was the end of negativity. When food started arriving, we ordered basically three items. Deep-fried olives those were surprisingly delicious and came with almonds. My husband and I both liked it. And the other one was like a cheese I forgot the name of it, but it was very good Then we got the truffle pizza. He wished that there wasn't honey on it because he doesn't like things sweet, but overall the balance was nice and we ate the entire pizza gone. We both also enjoyed a glass of Pinot Noir. It was very tasty. The people that work here were extremely pleasant checking in on us to make sure that we enjoyed everything. I loved this place so much while we were sitting there. I was texting friends to tell them about it. I plan on returning soon lots of healthy salads! You need to get more signs in the front Inevitably, you'll have to put some benches in front so people can wait Because I know this restaurant will be a hit Delicious food always wins Great services helpful as well Oh, and we and we first arrived. My husband was wearing a dinner jacket and said I'm overdressed for this place. The food was upscale and I said no maybe everybody else is just underdressed lol

I love the wine, the atmosphere and all the entertainment. Great place great music and great…read moreprices.

I tried getting them to give me wine that was owed to me from the monthly membership, and still…read morehaven't. I had been a member since they were at their old location by UCR. We had a grandfathered in membership and they wanted me to switch over when they moved. I didn't switch over because the prices were triple what I was paying before. Because of the close and being pregnant, my wine accumulated and I was owed a bunch of wine bottles. I was only able to collect 6 at a time because of a new limit. I tried going back and was hit with a "under new ownership." This winery has gone down since the initial switch in ownership, and even more now. Service has gone down, the ambiance isn't the same, and they don't honor anything. I called multiple times and they just brush everything I was saying off and use the "new management" or "new ownership" excuse. It's quite a drive for me, so I don't like to just pop in because the schedule is all over the place. We've shown up before when it was supposed to be open, just for it to be closed. I pretty much gave up at this point, and am deeply disappointed that I paid all this money for something I didn't receive. I do not recommend this winery. Just take the extra few minutes drive to Temecula for a better experience.
