Well, that was awkward! We told you Chris Martinez was playing Wednesday, but it turns out he's actually booked for Friday. Thanks for laughing with us! Huge thanks to everyone who still came out - we loved seeing you and we're so glad you liked the summer menu. So, we're gonna do it all again this Friday. Same summer specials, and this time Chris Martinez will actually be there. Come hang with us again, we promise this one's the real deal. ❤️😋😎🎶

A Note From Chef Vira
I miss my Temple family — and the incredible friendships I’ve built over the years. Your support while I’ve been away has meant more than you know. I miss every one of you… and I miss cooking my favorite food for you.
So, in true Vira fashion, I pulled together a last‑minute, incredible menu and called my dear friend Chris Martinez to join us for a special Wine Down Wednesday event.
Let’s make it a beautiful night of food, wine, music, and community — just like old times.
If you decide to come, please let us know by calling or making reservations on open table!

✨ Bucatini al La Riv — A La Riv Classic ✨
Some dishes don’t need an introduction… but they deserve one.
Our Bucatini al La Riv is comfort and craft in one bowl — silky bucatini tossed with crispy pancetta, sweet spring peas, and sautéed mushrooms, all brought together with good olive oil and that unmistakable La Riv touch.
Simple. Honest. Perfect.
A dish that feels like home, even if it’s your first time walking through our doors.
Come taste why this one will never leaves the menu!

🔥 A Decade of Fire, Flavor, and Tradition at La Riv Our fire didn’t just keep burning, it refused to be put out!
When that dough hits our 800‑degree wood‑fired oven, the same oven we’ve tended for a decade something happens that can’t be replicated with shortcuts or trends. It’s oak smoke curling around the crust. It’s blister, char, and soul.
La Riv’s wood‑fired pizza isn’t a trend. It’s a legacy, ten years of fire, flour, and obsession. Ten years of choosing the hard way because the hard way tastes better. Ten years of guests who know that when they want pizza with depth, character, and a story… they come here.
We can be biased absolutely!!! There’s just something different about the wood fired oven! the SMOKE the CHAR , and the texture you can’t fake!
did you know our pizza are half off during happy hour??

🔥 Two words: Wood. Fired. 🔥
Whether you're craving a perfectly charred Margherita , blistered crust, fresh basil, creamy mozzarella, or a hearty pasta tossed with pancetta, sweet peas, and a snowfall of Parmigiano, we've got your table waiting. Life's too short for mediocre Italian. Come hungry. 🍕🍝
