Italian Cuisine Heads to NLR Lakewood Village
Rivera Italian Restaurant is set to occupy the space currently held by Mojitos & Margaritas Grill & Bar in North Little Rock’s Lakewood Village. This strategic move to the 6,000-square-foot space at 2629 Lakewood Village Drive is expected to bring a new dining experience to the area.
Established in 2000, Rivera has a long history of providing high-quality food, known for combining fun and enjoyable ambiance with skillful cooking. Since its inception, the authentic Italian restaurant has been dedicated to providing an extraordinary dining experience.
The new location promises to maintain Rivera’s consistent opening hours. Diners can expect to enjoy their authentic Italian dishes from 11am to 9pm on Tuesday through Saturday and from 11am to 8pm on Sundays. However, it appears Rivera will be closed on Mondays.
This change of pace in Lakewood Village restaurants moves away from the traditional Mexican menu that Mojitos & Margaritas offered. With a focus on New York-style pizzeria and Italian cuisine, Rivera brings a fresh option to the area.
Beyond the details of Rivera’s menu and hours, the move represents a change in the culinary landscape of North Little Rock. Expectations are high that this respected eatery will bring something new and exciting to the local dining scene.
As the shift takes place, residents and visitors of NLR’s Lakewood Village will have the opportunity to explore a new dining experience. With Rivera’s reputation for high-quality food and enjoyable ambiance, there is little doubt that it will become a popular destination among locals and visitors alike.
