text: MyohMy Unlike the other two very negative reviews we had a very nice meal with decent enough service nnNow I was a bit leery when we were invited to eat at the Riviera but our friends said the place was good and it was their treat So off we scoot to the old dame at the north end of LV BlvdnnOK so this is not some fancy hip cool kind of place Just like the old Riv the restaurant looks like it has seen better days But thank goodness no roaches showed up uninvited ad the other Yelper hadnnWell service was adequate kind of friendly in a clunky nonassuming way just decent regular diner kind of servicennBut the food believe it or not was really very good and seemed to us quite authentic Too often what we find is Chinese that is too greasy or just unappetizing but this food reminded us of the really really good Chinese cafes in Vancouver BC where the Chinese food is really goodnnWe had lots of stuff and lots of things that were quite good hot and tasty I am sure glad I did not have the others experiences but over all we were very pleased and would not hesitate to return Now if I would found a roach yuck there is no way I would return but I thankfully did not and I can give a thumbs up to the Banana Leaf for good Chinese diner kind of food
