We’ve long known it to be true, but now we have proof of our often-made claim that Phil Stefani’s Riva Crab House offers some of the best views of the city of Chicago.
Food blog, Eater Chicago, recently named its Top 20 Chicago Restaurants with Killer Views of the Windy City, and Riva is right there near the top. It’s easy to see why with our Navy Pier location offering beautiful vistas of both Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. There aren’t too many restaurants in the city that can boast both incredible views.
According to The Eater, “Chicago has some of the most gorgeous scenery in the world, and very few things enhance it better than standout food and drink.”
We couldn’t agree more! Riva is synonymous with Navy Pier, and we’re proud that The Eater recognized our place among dining options on the Pier.
“Navy Pier draws in tourists for a reason and its downtown views from the lake may be the largest one. Riva is the best restaurant on the pier, serving a seafood-driven menu from just above the water,” said The Eater.
Riva’s menu items include premium seafood, prime steaks, and daily specials, as well as extensive wine selections. Chicago’s only seafood restaurant on the waterfront!
Riva’s kitchen is led by longtime Executive Chef Luigi Garcia. As the Executive Chef at Riva, Chef Luigi makes all customers feel welcomed through his knowledgeable servers greeting them in a friendly and warm manner and through his experienced kitchen staff cooking dishes that will delight their palate.
Chef Luigi makes a point to listen to customer’s inquiries, by preparing food that will meet their demand. He strives to ensure Riva’s food is recognized and remembered.
Whether it’s a romantic night out for two or a dinner with family, friends or co-workers, Riva Crab House is the perfect spot! Make your reservation today to enjoy an incredible meal and an even more incredible view!
