Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Bala Cynwyd

The hummus was exceptional today. And our waiter, Jonathan, was outstanding. Despite being so busy with the holiday, service was still excellent. Thank you.

We had a group of 8 and we had the best experience with the staff here. The food was all great, the drinks were fantastic and the staff served all of us exceptionally. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

We have been going here regularly for 3 plus years. Always great food. Love sitting outside in the summer. Brought a first timer who noted that they would be adding In Riva a to their restaurant list to return to.

I requested my steak done medium well. The first came out rare, the second came out medium rare. I absolutely hate sending food back and I’m never that person, but I just can’t do bloody meat. It’s the one thing I need well. My last and final steak finally came out well. The steak should’ve been entirely covered by the restaurant, but it wasn’t. Our drinks were comped, but the steak was definitely more than a couple cocktails. The food was good, it was just a disappointing first time experience.

We shared the avocado toast, the brown rice salad - both excellent and one of us had the manhattan clam chowder. The last was good but lukewarm to the table - detracted from its taste on a cold day.
