Welcome to Riva Restaurant and Bar, West Haven's premier waterfront destination opening in Summer 2025. Located at 183 Beach Street, on the historic site of the former Chick's Drive-In, Riva offers a vibrant and family-friendly atmosphere that celebrates the best of coastal living.

Our unique venue features an indoor-outdoor restaurant and beer garden, where guests can enjoy food alongside a selection of craft beers from many local breweries. The expansive outdoor area includes a U-shaped tiki bar, synthetic turf lawn, and fire pits, providing the perfect setting for games and wood-fired pizza.

For families and beachgoers, our seasonal ice cream bar is accessible directly from Morse Park, making it an ideal spot to cool off during the summer months. At Riva, we aim to create a welcoming environment for all ages, blending the charm of West Haven's shoreline with modern amenities and entertainment.

Join us at Riva Restaurant and Bar for a memorable dining experience that captures the essence of the Connecticut coast.
