Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Riverdale

Love the cheeseburger, even if the brioche roll disintegrates pretty fast, and tomato slice is tasteless. Great sauce, though. Fries could have been fresher, as in, just out of the fryer. Cocktails teeny but tasty. Love the hot fudge sundae!

This has been our go to spot for special occasions ever since our first visit. We’ve celebrated our engagement, city hall wedding, birthdays and anniversaries there. Today we celebrated my husband and step daughter’s birthday. It was a nice night, the food was great, and our server Lennon was very good and attentive. Thanks again for another great meal and even better memories! 😊

The smith never fails. They just never do. Amazing service, amazing food, the coursing was expertly executed, and they treated our party so well. This is why we continue and always will come back to the Smith

Black Bull steakhouse was the best decision I've made in a long time. I went for an anniversary dinner and it was the most exceptional dining experience I've had in a long time. As someone who has been working full-time in every facet of the hospitality industry, I could not have been more impressed. My meal was the 16 oz Bone-In Filet that was cooked to perfection at Medium Rare, and her meal was the 8 oz. Filet cooked to perfection at medium. The service was prompt, knowledgable and incredibly swift. Leo provided world-class service and he deserves a promotion. If you get the luxury of dining at Black Bull Steakhouse, Leo is the only server I want going forward!

My friend and I chose Becco for our pre-theatre celebration of my milestone birthday. The servers could not have been nicer or more attentive. We each chose their special of ceasar salad or antipasto and entree of 3 different pastas. The food was delicious and plentiful. We couldn’t even finish it. We topped other off with the tri-flavor sorbet dessert in which they put a candle and sang happy birthday to me. It was a very special dining experience.
