The experience

La Dolce Vita,
alpine hour.

Nestled in the historic rotunda of the Impérial Palace, Le Riva embraces Lake Annecy through its grand Belle Époque arched windows. Golden evening light, reflections on the water, hushed silence: here, every dinner becomes a moment apart.

Our cuisine speaks Italian with a Southern accent — vibrant antipasti, fresh pasta, creamy risottos and signature dishes inspired by the seasons and the region's finest producers.
