We really like this place. It’s a HIGH FOUR STARS for us. Dim lighting cozy booths and bar seats and a staff that has great personality and really cares about their profession. Oh, and the food is consistently great. We are stuck on the meatball and polenta appetizer and pizzas but have enjoyed many dishes and always go back. Not great for kids, but not bad, good for date night. Creative but classic cocktails and scrumptious desserts. The noise level is just right for semi-intimate conversation and bigger parties can all hear each other.
If I could change one thing it would be add an eggplant dish but so many good eats keeps us coming back.
See ya again soon, La Riv.

Food was wondering and ambiance was excellent. Waiter was awesome. Young Hispanic guy with the curly hair. I forget his name but he was a great attentive waiter. The food was awesome. Probably the best Italian we have had in Georgetown.

Great quality Italian food – we had the short rib pappardelle and truffle mushroom ravioli. You could tell the pasta was fresh and the short rib was melt-in-your-mouth. Excellent wine list and topped it all off with the delicious bread pudding. Will be coming back!

We recently visited La Riv Wood Fired Italian, and it was a wonderful experience! The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. We ordered the Carne pizza and Spaghetti Carbonara—both were outstanding. The pasta was rich and flavorful, and the pizza crust was perfectly crisp and delicious. It was hard to choose between dishes, but next time I’ll definitely be trying the Shrimp Scampi! Highly recommend this spot for anyone who loves authentic Italian food.

As we continue trying different restaurants in downtown Georgetown, we made reservations at La River Wood Italian Restaurant. After about a 15-minute wait, we were seated near the front door. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff overall seemed pleasant.
Our server was Paul. While looking over the menu, it felt like the restaurant catered more toward wine enthusiasts, as the wine selection seemed more extensive than the food selection. Having traveled to Italy and visited many Italian restaurants across the U.S., I expected more traditional Italian options. I was also surprised they didn’t have lasagna, and when I mentioned it, I was told it was more of an Americanized dish than Italian—which I personally disagree with.
For dinner, I ordered the Italian meatballs and spaghetti, but unfortunately it was very bland and under-seasoned. Normally I finish everything on my plate, but this time I couldn’t. My wife ordered the fish, and she felt the same way—it also lacked seasoning. Both dishes were presented well, but no one offered parmesan cheese, seasoning, or anything extra to enhance the flavor.
Service was decent overall, but the biggest issue was the long wait for our food—over 45 minutes. After checking with Paul, we were told the fish takes a long time, but that hasn’t been my experience. I later spoke with the manager, who was very professional and checked on the delay. He discovered our order hadn’t been entered in a timely manner and offered to comp our meal, which we appreciated. He also brought out extra meatballs while we waited—though they were also bland—and we were given a slice of red velvet cake, which was okay.
Based on this experience, we’re willing to give the restaurant another try in the future—possibly with different friends to get a second opinion—especially since it was clearly busy and popular. People must enjoy it for a reason, though from our visit, the food selection and flavor didn’t seem to be the main draw.

Food was excellent! Took the family there on Christmas Eve and we had a fantastic time. Never felt rushed, waiter was super attentive, food was the best, great cocktails and wine. Perfect setting for a dinner and then to walk around Georgetown square and soak in the lights and ambiance. Thanks for a great dinner!

I have always loved the Caesar salad and pizza at and have dined there several times. Unfortunately, my last experience was beyond disappointing — it was infuriating.
Our waiter was rude and made the entire evening uncomfortable. When I ordered bread, fully aware that it is not complimentary and prepared to pay for it, he felt the need to point that out in a shallow and condescending way the bread was not free. It was unnecessary and disrespectful.
What upset me even more was the lack of attention to our table. He never once came back to check on us, yet we clearly saw him providing attentive and friendly service to his other tables. My party couldn’t help but notice the difference. I don’t want to assume it was because we are Latino and the other tables were not, but the contrast in service was impossible to ignore.
We were also planning to order two mac and cheese dishes to go, but he took so long to return to our table that we eventually gave up. I had to ask twice for my Caesar salad, and whenever I tried to get his attention, he acted as if he couldn’t even see our table.
I cannot believe the level of poor service we experienced. It was disrespectful, dismissive, and completely unacceptable. After several good visits in the past, this experience has left me angry and extremely disappointed.

My husband and I enjoyed a delicious New Year’s Eve dinner at La Riv. The food and service were excellent as usual. I took away one star simply because it is a bit noisy.

We had a fantastic experience at La Riv. It was our first time and we were impressed with the ambiance, food and service. We arrived early for a Thursday evening reservation but we were seated immediately and were able to choose the table.
The cheese board and shrimp appetizer were good, the main meals were excellent. The wine was good too. The prices are high but definitely worth it. Great restaurant in a good location. Highly recommended.
