Riva Blu Liverpool

With its large alfresco terrace, island bar, and handsome architecture, Riva Blu Liverpool has a chic, continental feel inside and out.

From sharing boards of Italian cured meats and cheeses, to crisp calamari, seafood linguine and some very feisty meatballs, it offers a feel-good menu, cooked in an open-kitchen, and designed to appeal to a wide audience. The food isn’t breaking any new boundaries but it’s enjoyable and satisfying.

Favourites such as steaks, pizza and panna cotta make it the ideal place for a celebration. An event co-ordinator can organise parties, corporate dos, weddings, and any other get-together you want to arrange. Their private dining room seats up to 40 people.

There’s a well-curated wine list, and classic and contemporary cocktails, including an excellent selection of Italian G&Ts. Enjoy one on the terrace while watching the world go by.
