Riva Steak Seafood - Council Bluffs

What a wonderful experience! First we read reviews and honestly nothing was good at this place. We had a voucher that was given to us by one of the casino hosts and almost gave it away by terrible reviews. We decided to keep it and try this place. It was all against what people said. The food was great! New York stripes were perfectly cooked and not carved over. The Asian ribs... AMAZING... and the service (Lindsay) was over phenomenal. We were late (830p) so it wasn't the best time, maybe this is something to consider? We will definitely return. Thank you.

Good. A bit on the pricy side and service was moderate.

My husband and I had dinner at Riva 3/31/2018. We ordered both Filet Steak, an 8 ounce and a 6 ounce. They were completely different steaks. The 8 ounces were tender and round. The 6 ounces were thin and shaped like a Sirloin Steak. I tried to tell the manager and he gave me an explanation that made no sense. For the price that Steak should be a USDA primer, and so tender I could have cut it almost with a fork. They told me they'd make me a new steak, but I wasn't even hungry at that time. They didn't blame us for one steak. Not sure we would ever go back there. Jack Binions Steak House at Horseshoe Casino is much better.

The bread and the Cesar salad saved them from a star review. Everything else best was mediocre.

$38 16 oz medium ribeye was tough, charred on the outside with distinct burnt taste. Couple at next table sent their steak back to be recooked. Wild mushrooms looked mushy and didn't taste great. Creme brulee was bad. Coffee for 4 people cost almost as much as a bottle of wine! Try another restaurant.
