The Dimattina family has been running restaurants in Melbourne and all across Australia for the past 30 years, always with a touch of their Italian blood running through a venue. They will be opening Riverside back up as a family-style, relaxed bistro and bar set up run by the locals for the locals.

Having also lived in Ascot Vale for the past 25 years they know the value Riverside has to the local people as well as all the new emerging families that have yet to experience it at its best. Whether looking to host your family and friend events, Christmas functions, take the family for a casual lunch or have a few quiet beers after a round of 9 holes we’re sure there’s a place at Riverside Kitchen & Bar for everyone.
