Riva Fish House takes its name from a small Italian village on the Ligurian coast, Riva Trigoso. The menu therefore makes a few nods to the country from which it takes its inspiration, with a nice selection of various pastas. You can also eat the local American-Italian specialty, cioppino, a delicious fish stew prepared according to the catch of the day. In addition to all these tempting proposals, Riva is worth a visit for its perfect location on the Santa Cruz pier, with a breathtaking view.

Here's a good address that you can recognize by its high footfall: here, there's a queue all day long. The reason? The food is good, simple, quickly prepared and inexpensive for its quality.

The restaurant's location is ideal, overlooking the harbor, but without the drawbacks: here, prices are low and parking is right next door.
