    New Hampshire isn't known for Mexican cuisine but Riviera Nayarit in Nashua is THE EXCEPTION! I went back 6 days after my first visit. This spacious restaurant with full bar offers chonky margaritas, complimentary chips with fresh salsa, and an extensive menu packed with authentic Mexican dishes. Gluten-free galore! Queso Dip and Esquites accompanied by fresh cucumber margaritas made for a savory and sweet jump off. For dinner, the Quesabirria was tender and juicy, complimented by a generously sized bowl of flavorful consommé for dipping. Black beans and rice side dish hit the spot. Went with two different parties and everyone cherished their food + drink! Valentina was a gracious host and our master mixologist both nights. Lose the addresses of those old chains... Find this new(ish) hidden gem on W Pearl Street in Nashua, right off Main Street!

    Tucked away on a side street in Nashua is Riviera Nayarit. Upon entering it looks like your typical Mexican-restaurant, bright colors every where and the smell of delicious food being cooked. Sadly that is all this place has to offer the service was ok a little slow in my opinion, but we will let that slide since everyone is short staffed and this could have been the case here. The menu is huge and with a menu that big usually the food is nothing to rave about and the case here was no different. The food is bland the salsa for chips is runny and tasted like it came out of a container, the guacamole was alright but nothing that your taste buds will dance for. Unless you like your Mexican food bland I unfortunately do not recommend Riviera Nayarit nor will I return.

    Excellent Mexican food in the area! Service is a bit slow, but we always leave satisfied with the food. The margaritas are giant - there's a page for special margaritas as well as house margaritas. There's a lot of seafood (ceviche, aquachile, grilled and fried). Street tacos are fantastic and there is amazing heat in the house hot sauce. The elote had decent flavor but it was frozen corn so it wasn't great for that reason. The enchiladas and quesadillas were delicious and packed with protein and onions. The queso with chorizo was also delicious.

    my grilled taco salad, delish!

    Went there with some family for dinner and it was delicious! We sat there talking for a couple of hours and the staff were so polite and patient. Would definitely go there again!

    Amazing appetizers!

    First visit was a success. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND GREAT STAFF, food and atmosphere. We WILL definitely be back again soon. If you have not been here yet, please make time and go.

    Several days old guacamole

    We were in the area, and decided to give it a try. We walked in around 4pm and there was not a soul in there. We ordered several entrees. When the waitress brought our food out, one of our rice, beans and guacamole plates had a long black hair over it. She apologized and brought out an "new one" about one minute later, but it was certainly the same plate, with a new slice of tomato instead. Didn't fool us. Meat and veggies in fajitas seem to be consistently burned at the bottom. Guacamole(shown in photos) was at least a day old with brownish hue to it. That's something you'd expect at a gas station, but not highly rated restaurant. Perhaps, all those people that left awesome reviews for this place, usually get their Mexican food at Taco Bell... ‍

    Absolutely incredible food, best Mexican I've had in the southern NH area. Highly recommend to anyone who loves seafood or Mexican. Octopus was perfectly tender, wife loved the tacos, and the shrimp app with different sauces was worth the price of admission alone

    Tacos!

    Another shout out to Cava ,Although my fav Server Edwin wasn't there ,all the others were courteous…read moreand quick without feeling rushed -(for us that are bad with a decision) Go to Cava Treat the help as you would your boss Kindness politely and care that their job helps you and they show up ! Cava great job !! tiny dig don't let the cleanliness slip ! It maters and helps us all - that's all Just go it's delish

    So, my little family has been ordering from this place profusely for weeks now. Yet I'm only now…read morebeginning to understand why. And whilst my wife initially presumed I would not enjoy this place much (honestly, shame on her for thinking this), I can assure you NOTHING could be further from the truth. CAVA is what happens when healthy food actually tastes good! It's proof that "healthy" doesn't have to mean "flavorless." But really...the thing that gives this place an edge is the high level of customization they offer its customers. Take a look at their menu and you'll see a generously vast list of ingredients. I guarantee that nearly anyone will find something to their liking, then build the gyro or bowl of their dreams. A word of caution to anyone who orders the former though: it's messy. Like....wicked messy! But, oh SO worth it! I took the liberty of ordering a custom pita wrap consisting of the following: chicken shawarma, crazy feta spread, tomatoes and onions, shredded Romaine lettuce, topped off with a delicious garlic dressing. And this thing did NOT disappoint! Like I said though, it was messy. It only took me getting one bite in before I noticed the garlic dressing making a hasty exit out the backside of my wrap. I find it's best to fold the bottom part of the paper closed before indulging. Otherwise, you'll end up with a puddle of sauce on your table like I did. Whoops! The interior format of the place is pretty straightforward. If you're ordering take-away in advance via their website or app (highly recommended, btw), the pick up area is located on the left-hand side of the order lane. Another caveat to heed is that you'll want to set up a rewards account prior to placing an order. So far as I can tell, this is the only way you'll be allowed to complete an online order. I have a feeling I will be earning some reward points with this place real soon. Because it's conveniently close to my house and I WILL be returning here often. A few other meats I'd like to try are their steak and grilled chicken options. I'll have to experiment a bit with different spreads and dressings and whatnot. But I definitely discovered a favorite that is the shawarma. And with that, I'm giving CAVA in Nashua 5 messy, but tasty as all get out shawarma wraps out of 5.
