We all left very disappointed with the food and service. We went for dinner on a Friday and the restaurant was not crowded at all, but the main dishes arrived at different moments so while my friends were done eating, I haven’t even received my plate. I made several follow ups with the waitress but that did not speed up things… Everything we ate was not impressive, the best dish was the meat with beans but is hard to do something wrong with that. Drinks and wine were good and there is decent parking in front of the restaurant.

The wagyu beef butter burgers were simply delicious, flavorful bites that were reasonably sized but still generous. The medium-rare hanger steak was cooked to perfection. Although both desserts were delicious, I think I preferred the sticky toffee pudding over the Nutella cheesecake. Because the sticky toffee pudding used banana nut bread for the cake, I believe I like it more. I did like every single meal that was served here! 1000/10 would return. Already, I'm missing it.

I finally made it to Riel. It was everything I was hoping it would be. Creative and innovative dishes that teased the palette with seafood, meat or vegan options. The presentation was artful and modern. The flavors were genius, unexpected and delicious. I'm always a lover of tapas style eating and enjoyed being able to taste many of the dishes. The portions are a little on the small side for the price, though some of the dishes were so good we ordered them again. The restaurant had a good ambiance with a modern vibe. The wait staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. A great experience and definitely a place to try if you enjoy dining.

We came here for HRW. You get 4 courses for $55. I enjoyed all of my courses. The tempura cauliflower was nice and spicy and the portion size was decent. The butter burger was my favorite. It was on a toasted bun and was so moist and buttery and delicious. The market fish was light and very flavorful. The bees knees dessert was also great. Plenty of parking and the service was great. My only complaint is that the temperature of the restaurant was very warm. We had to keep 2 menus to use as fans.

A Saturday night dinner date at Riel, and let me tell you, this place is a foodie paradise! Every dish was unique and tasted phenomenal. Even the cocktails were wonderful. We got the pirogies and mushroom empanadas to start, which were both fantastic. Then for the entrees my husband had the kimchi carbonara which he LOVED and I had the red snapper with collard green dumplings which I LOVED! Then we decided to keep it going with dessert of the bees knees and THAT was also delicious! Literally not one dud of a dish, we were full and happy leaving!
