TAKE A BITE OUT OF BIG TASTE
Home-made dough, a recipe perfected by Chef Paolo topped with fresh, slowly-grown ingredients.
Classic small plate favourites to enjoy when you'd like to fill your table with more than pizza.
SIMPLE. SLOW. LOCAL.
We keep things simple here at Riverwood. But, simple does not mean boring.
While building the fundamental pillars of what Riverwood embodies we pulled inspiration from our European friends across the pond. When it comes to dining, nothing is rushed - especially the enjoyment of good food and conversation. So, we decided slow was the way to go.
We opted out of staying in the loop on trending dishes. Don't get us wrong, we love anything new and are right there with our support, but us turtles prefer the scenic route over the fast lane.
All of our pizzas are prepared on homemade dough - a recipe perfected by Chef Paolo - topped with fresh, slowly-grown local ingredients. With select quality goods imported from Italy and wood fire heat, the menu may seem simple, but the flavour will have you savouring every bite.
