    Diego is an excellent waiter - provided sound advice. We both had the cassoulet which was beautifully prepared and presented. Warmth on a cold winter’s night. As always, Le Rivage has the best tasting escargot. Bread was used to sop up every bit of liquid deliciousness. The poire a la beaujolaise was scrumptious - the scoop of vanilla ice cream paired perfectly!

    We were there for lunch before a play. Our waiter, Diego, was attentive but not hovering. As were the other servers. I had the ratatouille which was beautifully prepared and delicious. My husband has the duck which was also excellent. Desserts were wonderful as well. We enjoyed the charming ambiance of the restaurant and a very satisfying experience.

    I’ve been to several restaurants on Restaurant Row, but had never been to this one. Now that we’ve tried it, we’ll definitely visit again. The food was delicious and service was excellent.

    Do not pass up an opportunity to dine here! The food and service are equally outstanding. The poached pear dessert easily ranks as one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. I will return here EVERY time I’m in the city. It’s that good.

    Very basic and classic French menu. Nothing special or seasonal. Price fix was more expensive than ordering items a la carte, which made no sense.
