This place has so much character. The food is amazing. Service is super friendly. Prices are great. Reminds me of places I used to go with my parents 40-50 years ago.

First visit and loved it. 4 stars only because of the noise. We were right by the piano which made conversation tough. I had roasted pork shoulder with gravy and mashed potatoes and it was delicious. My wife had the knickerbocker sandwich and she loved it. Chocolate caramel torte and raspberry pie were worthy desserts.

My favorite lunch place with friends. The food is excellent, the service is great, and the menu is always changing which keeps it interesting. The bar that you enter from the street, is pure Irish pub, but the adjacent dining room serves outstanding American and international cuisine with an emphasis on seafood. If you go on a Friday in the summer, try the lobster roll with a slice of raspberry pie for dessert. UPDATE-1: After being closed for some time during the pandemic, Riley’s is now open for dinner starting at 4:00 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Update-2: My wife and I went to the restaurant for their St Joseph’s Day menu. We started by sharing an appetizer of fried clam strips with two dipping sauces, tartar and a spicy tomato. The clam strip coating was crispy and the clams were tender and delicious. To my surprise, I liked the spicy tomato dip as much as the tartar sauce. This was followed by a fresh side salad that paired well with a creamy balsamic dressing. For an entree, I had shrimp scampi over fettuccine. The dish included six jumbo shrimp cooked to perfection, and the pasta was prepared al dente as I prefer. There was a problem with the dish in that the sauce didn’t stick to the pasta. I added some butter which helped. UPDATE-3: Returned for their St Patrick’s Day breakfast. Wonderful food, wonderful service.

We met friends for a Friday night dinner at Riley’s. The atmosphere was friendly and inviting. Our server was amazing and handled the packed crowd efficiently. The food was the biggest highlight, with home-cooked dishes and desserts. The menu changes daily but includes comfort food favorites to depend on. We enjoyed a fantastic dinner and will certainly be back. Highly recommend.

We have lived walking distance to this restaurant for almost a year. Honestly for the first few months I didn’t know it was a restaurant. Since we have been here people have recommended giving them a try. Tonight while looking into something new we decided to give them a shot. We were a bit lost walking in the door (6-7pm) they were pretty busy so that was understandable. We were directed to the back for seating and we were seated immediately. We found the setting to be intimate but comfortable. Our menus were hand written (which I love because that means the menus can change) we finished an appetizer (calamari) our opinion was that it was just slightly under cooked (not enough to not eat it, I wouldn’t take anything away from that). Just as we finished up a pianist started playing and this experience went from good to outstanding. Music was the perfect addition to the atmosphere drowning out some of the other patrons who were a bit loud ( again not the restaurants fault) our main course came out and they were outstanding! I was skeptical because there are so many positive reviews. Sometimes it’s hard for a company to live up to their own reviews. This was not the case. I am absolutely a believer of everybody that posted before me. This food was outstanding. The mashed potatoes were loaded with flavor but not overpowering. Texture wise they had chunks and skins which we appreciate. All of the meat was perfectly cooked to request even the pork chop which was 100% bigger than I expected. We look forward to coming back many times over the summer. Hoping that maybe there’s some outdoor seating as well . Should you find yourself wondering if your expectations will meet what they can do… They will.

Best restaurant in Syracuse hands down. Consistently excellent quality food, friendly and accommodating staff, and welcoming atmosphere. A bit pricy and the wait can sometimes be very long, but worth it. I enjoy that the menu changes daily, always something new to look forward to. Wish there was more parking, but I don’t mind the short walk.

It had been years since I’d been to Riley’s, but tonight I went again with a party of three. We had an absolutely phenomenal dinner – I had a strip steak served with mashed sweet potatoes and a delicious veggie medley. Another in our party has the haddock basket and our third had the knickerbocker. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and finished off the evening with some incredible desserts. We enjoyed a chocolate torte, a flan, and a slice of coconut cream pie. We had a fantastic server and loved having some love piano music as we enjoyed our dinner. We will absolutely be returning again – and much sooner this time!!

We went to Riley’s early on a Friday night. We sat quickly, and the service was great. I had the beer battered haddock, and my husband had the knickerboker open faced sandwich. Additionally, we got the clam chowder to start. The entire meal, including the fresh baked bread, was delicious. The waitress was lovely. We will definitely be back!
