Ristorante Riviera - Walldorf

I landed here (on the opposite end of the high street) when I discovered that the pfaelzer hof (the Greek restaurant) is closed on Tuesday - be warned. riviera was a typical Italian bistro with (ciemlich) authentic and friendly mature waiter. after almost 2 hours I am still not sure whether they are Italian or German! the restaurant was quite full and had a pleasant humming. since I was a single, I was placed at the end of a long table opposite the door and right in front of the bar - maybe so that they could keep me in the eye! with minestrone I kept it easy. it was freshly prepared - as my singing waiter stressed - it was hot and tasty, although I am never sure whether the basic chicken or tomato should be. this was pale, so I suppose, chicken. there were delicious, warm and pleasantly juicy and soft Italian brot (not to garlic). I chose the kalbsriviera (speciality of the house). I had a velvet, but probably rather a kalbssteak, but in two tournedos rolled with a pleasant (lightly edgy) mushroom sauce with just enough vegetables. meat was beautiful pink like calf meat. I had a glass barbera red wine and a not quite so cheap 0.7l bottle san pellegrino sprudelwasser. I dispensed with a dessert and got a small dish with a dozen of the firmest, juiciest and sweetest grapes I've ever eaten beautifully washed. with a neat drink money you eat the bill of over 50 euro for 2 courses not cheap but very pleasant.

We enjoyed the atmosphere at this place very much, felt very welcome, the wine was excellent and the food too!

Service was fast. the pizza was the best I had for years. Unfortunately, the seat in front of the door is very busy.

We stayed in walldorf on the way back from the ski holiday and accidentally found the restaurant riviera. by the way, the only local thing that had on the rosenmontag at midday (what we found). the waiters were very friendly (sung in the background), the atmosphere was very pleasant and the eating has tasted excellent. if I were living near, I would be guaranteed to be a guest!

I've been going. What else should we get here? pizza was okay. I just wrote about the 100 characters.
