Amazing group meal, great vibes and great service. Highly recommend your waiter choosing the small plates and you can just sit back and enjoy. Favorite plates: kimchi carbonara, honey walnut crawfish, mussels, fried rice, caviar tots and the bees knees dessert was a perfect ending. Rob was our server and did not steer us wrong. Wine selection and cocktails were well curated and delicious . Also half price wine night on Wednesday is a huge plus!!

Concise and creative menu. Very good taste-wise, but not outstanding. A tad too much sauce. Modern presentation. Top notch utensils. Unorthodox gangster-chic vibe with pleasant, unpretentious decor. The location itself is meh. Servers were woke, friendly and allergy-conscious, but not particularly passionate, polished, or professional for the most part. Ideal spot for artsy misfits with an open mind, a refined pallet, and a thick wallet.

Put this restaurant on your list of frequently visited because you'll do yourself a disservice if you don't try everything on the menu.
These are some of the best chefs in town! The cocktails are just as good as the cuisine. Very imaginative and full of flavor.
If you've found this place and are reading this review, then stop looking for another place to eat, get in the car and come indulge. This is peak satiation! ????

Came here on a quick whim reservation and glad I did! Service was great. Server was very nice and attentive, knew alot about the menu and gave great recommendations. As for the food, the empanadas were very buttery and delicious. Crudo was refreshing! Bone marrow was the favorite dish of all, the mixed berry jam was a great combination with the soft marrow, absolutely love it and would recommend. Was hoping for a little more foie gras on the toffee dessert but it was still very delicious! The menu is very diverse and there are many more dishes I’d love to try, definitely coming back some time.

I had never tried parogies, but now I'm addicted! Their signatures drinks are goodies for!! If they ever remove the cucumber cocktail, I will protest! Chef Ryan, you are absolutely fantastic! Sorry, the perogies are served in 4's but I couldn't wait!)

I love this New American cuisine restaurant! I wish I could’ve had more unique items on the menu. If you come here, I recommend you having an open taste pallet for different flavors. But also, the mushroom empanadas were AMAZING!

Finally made it out to Riel. The dishes are unique and flavorful. I loved the laidback ambiance and seeing the genuine passion for cooking the chefs had. This was one night but the staff really seemed to enjoy themselves.
I ordered the Kimchi Carbonara, which was a surprising twist of flavor and I couldn't get enough of those charred shrimp! Overall I was impressed and truly enjoyed the whole experience. I will be coming back to have more of the mushroom empandas, so good!

We loved our experience at Riel! The dishes were all so unique and flavorful. The ambiance was very friendly and upscale while still very casual. It was incredible to see such a small kitchen in view of the dining room prepare high quality food.

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.
