    Calamari oily. Lasagne stodgy as 2 sheets stuck together and overcooked. No seasoning either. Husband enjoyed his meal though. Had to ask twice for a couple of things. Meals not confirmed before walking away and had to amend something quickly. Felt a bit rushed. Overpriced in places too.

    Beautiful Italian food, the pizza are typically authentic Italian pizza, absolutely delicious! Thin base and not doughy. Calamari, the best I've eaten! The staff are so tentative but not over bearing, which is perfect. They're all so friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. Highly recommended!

    Great meal at Riva Blu Hull, service was excellent from start to finish attentive and not rushed. Megan went out of her way to look after us and the bar staff was efficient with the drinks we chose. We had three courses each and every plate was full of flavour. Will definitely return in future. Thank you Riva Blu.
