Dapper Dine & Lounge

This place did not disappoint! The food was fantastic, and the service was exceptional. The Mad Men-inspired ambiance added a great touch. Let’s get to the basics: the outdoor seating is stylish, and the bathrooms are spotless. It’s perfect for any occasion, and you can easily make many of the dishes vegetarian. The chipotle chicken pasta sauce(we had it without the chicken) was absolutely delicious. We also tried the Boring Pasta, which was just as satisfying. If you’re a fan of themed drinks, this spot is a must— their Cheers Spiced Cranberry Mule was a dream, and the Lemon Drop was a close second. Don’t forget dessert cause the chocolate cake was perfectly moist and the butter cake paired nicely with the berries provided.

I like the costumer service. The people make it nice. Specially Windy, Nelson and Maria. One of the owners who wears a white dress shirt… On point. Riverside needed a place like this. I enjoyed the appetizers and the dessert. The drinks are good too. I came twice already. I appreciate that my town is getting more appealing when it comes to dinning.

We celebrated our Galentine’s dinner here, and everything was absolutely wonderful! Our hostess was so pleasant and had our table ready upon arrival. The ambiance was spectacular, and our server was an absolute sweetheart—so attentive and kind. The entire staff was professional and made sure all our requests were met. And the food and drinks? Absolutely delicious! We’ll definitely be coming back!

The staff was amazing and atmosphere was well designed. The sauteed vegetables ,fennel shrimp, sweet potato fries, and drinks were all amazing. However for food I have to dock a star as the salmon and chicken were overcooked making them dry and imbalance the rest of the fantastic meal. Still good enough to continue returning but feedback to consider for your purchases and for the restaurant to improve on

Food was delicious and atmosphere nice. Everyone was nice but gave them a 3 for service as when our server clocked out a few minutes after giving us our food, they didn't seem to find a replacement for a while and I had to call anyone working nearby to help us get refills, etc. Lobster, crab cakes, and butter cake were the most memorable dishes as they were perfect. Steak sliders and linguine pescatore were good too.

We thoroughly enjoyed lunch at Dapper Dine & Lounge! Super cute place with nice decor in green & gold accents. Lots of birthdays were being celebrated that day. We sat inside, but there are plenty of outdoor patio tables; all of them covered. Dapper has only been open about a month, so we were really impressed with level of service. We loved everything we ordered (chicken sandwiches, burgers with fries, sweet potato fries and side Caesar salad), but the Cajun shrimp appetizer was THE STAR — perfectly cooked and oh my gosh, that sauce! Sadly I don’t have a photo of the shrimp because it was devoured quickly (rookie move, I know). We also shared a delicious butter cake with fruit and vanilla ice cream. We will definitely return, next time we’re in the area.

beautiful new restaurant in riverside. great tasting cocktails and affordable wine list. i heard they’re working on a brunch menu but please add a happy hour! food specials on mon and tue. reservations available on their website/opentable. beautiful interior design, open kitchen, large patio area. i will say the area by the kitchen is a little dim. onto the food, I wasn’t too impressed by the steak picado - a little chewy and if you’re going to add that much sauce it should be better. but the steak tacos were very good. 2nd visit and the fries were the best part lol, burger and mashed potatoes 2nd and lastly the ribeye steak was great just missing the wow factor. definitely one of our (new) favorite restaurant in riverside! thank you Kylee for the wonderful service.
