Looking forward to checking it out!!

The phones haven’t stopped ringing.

We’ve been completely overwhelmed (in the best possible way) by the love and excitement pouring in. Reservations are filling up fast and our hearts are so full. Thank you for showing up for us like this - it means more than we can say.
We’re also thrilled to finally share a first look at our new signage on the building. It feels so good to see “Casa Riva” shining on Roberts Street. This place is starting to feel like home.

And don’t forget - Sundays are for brunch.
Our Sunday menu is something special, and we’d love to have you at our tables.

📍 18 Roberts Street, Ladysmith
📞 250-924-1300 for reservations
GRAND OPENING tomorrow.
See you soon.
