What a disappointment! For the 30th Birthday of our twin daughters we went to this place hoping for…read morean evening to remember. Sorry to say that the quality of the food was some of the worst I have experienced. The wine is way,way overpriced and the waiter was unfriendly and inattentive. Dear Bocconcino, u have lots of room to improve your price/quality ratio. Question: On the attached photo of a Pizza Ruccola and Prosciutto Di Parma (€ 20) do u find more than 1 slice of Prosciutto? I couldn't!

Ohne Reservierung haben wir an einem Samstag Abend um 19 Uhr noch einen (super) Tisch erhalten. Der…read moreService (anscheinend auch der Chef) war wirklich sehr freundlich - es hätte evtl. etwas häufiger nach Getränkewünschen gefragt werden können bzw. die Dessertkarte von sich aus gegeben werden können. Die Brötchen, die vorab gereicht werden, sind der Hit. Wir hatten Bruschetta (ja, nicht wirklich neu) als Vorspeise und als Hauptgänge: Rumpsteak und Lammkaree, auch nicht wirklich eine Neuschöpfung, sie waren aber so gut zubereitet, wie wir sie selten gegessen haben - außen ganz knusprig und innen Medium bis Medium-rare. Einziger Minuspunkt: die Stammkunden rundherum bekamen einen Grappa aufs Haus, darauf bin ich echt nicht aus, aber entweder alle oder keiner! Wir kommen trotzdem wieder, mein Freund sagte, dass selbst die "800 Grad"-Steakhäuser hier nicht mithalten können. Der Geschmack war wirklich einzigartig, nur etwas zuviel Olivenöl, wahrscheinlich, damit das Fleisch nicht austrocknet.

Went to Riva for a business dinner with a large group of 10. From the first minute our waiter,…read moreGianluca, took command. His recommendations for wines were confident and definitive. We quickly put our dinner choices into his hands and we were not disappointed. He designed a perfect combination of dishes. The food was exceptional. Highlights included a white fish cooked in a salt crust, truffled angel hair pasta, and a massive platter of beef rib roast served family style. I will return.

This is an American bar in the sense that if you came to America as a tourist, this is the kind of…read moreterrible place a jerky local would send a foreign tourist as a joke to get them out of their hair. In America, or Chicago at least, no one who's of legal drinking age and has any sort of respect for themselves goes to places like this. Bars like this are reserved for people who are freshly 21 and don't know any better, freshly divorced and looking to slum it, or for tourists who got got tricked into coming here. In this case, we were the Americans-in-Germany version of the latter. Our guide took us here thinking we'd be impressed with this 'American' bar. Obviously, that didn't happen. For any Chicagoans reading this, this bar is located in the Viagra Triangle of Düsseldorf and this place (along with all it's neighbors) would be the 'Mothers'... but at least we know where to send our guide when he visits Chicago next. Payback, for sure. The clientele seemed mostly older, divorcee-aged, though there were a few younger tables. The main level is sticky and standing room only and the crowd goes wild for songs that are perpetually lame to everyone in America besides mid-life crisis suffering suburbanites and people who enjoy piano bars. Songs like 'Who let the dogs out?', anything from Papa Roach and/or Nickelback, new-ish Bon Jovi releases, Lou Bega's 'Mambo #5', and more... but not ironically. A music video mash-up that did not match the songs that were actually being spun played on the overhead flat-screens. I was a particularly big fan of the Aretha Franklin video in black and white, Usher live in concert, and a raunchy Rihanna video. I'm not sure what the 3 had to do with each other, but it was fun to try and guess what the person who did mix them together was thinking. Our guide noted that they mix a mean Redbull vodka, but since the rest of us value our lives and do our best to not mix our uppers and downers, we all just opted for a straight beer. No surprise here with an altbier, but we sucked it up since were heading to Belgium the next day and knew we wouldn't have to drink any more light beers the rest of the trip. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but keep in mind we also came here sober. It's probably a lot better to come here after you've already spent a sizable amount of time imbibing.

"Why did I order that? I never eat that in the US, because it's a heavy, cheesy, dish that never appealed to me.. Oh well..." To my surprise, a delightful and delicate dish was served to me! This dish was nothing that I pictured! there was multiple layers of spinach, ground beef, light cheese, sauce, and most of all, it was full of flavor. There was this garlic infused butter/sauce that decorated the plates outer edges, but nonetheless it was tasty as well! A little pricey, especially for lunch. However, just know you are coming to an authentic Italian restaurant! I even tried to communicate via German, but they really wanted me to learn some Italian instead! Grazie!! Ciao!
