Went to the place with my girl friend of two years and we both loved it. Perfect place to bring a loved one or the whole family. The ambiance of the room was amazing. We ordered a pitcher of sangria and I must say that it was the best sangria that I have had in a real long time. I also ordered a sea food salad for appetizer and it was delicious. For the main course she had the stuffed salmon, and I had the cowboy steak both were cooked to perfection. We were treated very well, there was good music, and the food was phenomenal. We left full, and happy, will definitely be there again soon.

We stop by La Riviera Restaurant for seafood probably once a week. Our favorite appetizers are the crab cakes, fried calamari with gorgonzola cheese and baked clams casino. For dinner, my family and I usually choose a paella, Chilean sea bass, veal osso buco and lobster bisque soup. Honestly, I think la Riviera has the most delicious food in Matawan, in Monmouth County. Fluffy,testy, fresh, buttery goodness. It is not cheap, of course, but it's totally worth saving up for!
