    This was a lovely evening. Prices are high but food was excellent and service was exemplary. I appreciated that they spent time with me choosing menu items and suggesting alternatives to my food allergies.

    The service was excellent, as always. The food was good, but the fish had a different flavor than I remembered from the many times I had ordered it before.

    The beef Wellington, was dry and overcooked. We did enjoy the side of spinach. We also enjoyed the Dover Sole but it was not the best one I have had. We were surprised that we were sat close to other tables in an uncomfortable table. They had plenty of options booths and larger more comfortable options as the restaurant was very empty with only two other guests attending dinner. The lobby of the hotel is beautiful and the area where they serve breakfast or perhaps tea, river dinning room is awkward and not that attractive.

    Definitely would go back and the seafood/fish and sauces/tastes were perfect, absolutely gorgeous. Wine good. Only possible very slight negatives were an initial getting the order wrong (which they amply made up for). Service was quick overall. And if anything the service was a little too attentive. Fries side tasted good but they were a little too crisp - fingers required, couldn’t cut or use a fork. Personally would have preferred slightly less quiet. Absolutely loved overall though.

    Just what one would expect from a flagship hotel restaurant. I took my wife for our anniversary lunch and enjoyed a wonderful experience. To be honest it was exactly what I expected. Attention to detail was effortlessly delivered by attentive but discreet staff. The food was timeless Ramsey. Impossible to make a bad order, could have stuck a pin in the menu and been happy with the outcome, whatever it was. As for value, is nice to actually get what you pay for. We will be back. Thank you River Restaurant.

    To get to the restaurant we had to go thru another one which was odd. They started nickel and dime ing us. 7.50 for water, 5.50 for 4 slices of bread, and nothing came with the entrees so another 8.00 for mash and 7.50 for some beans. The prices for the entrees were high so something should have been included. At least the cutlery was included. We ordered coffee and there was an additional charge for cream…crazy We enjoyed the food and the ambience but sadly we won’t be back.

    Great food, great service, great ambience. Wine prices were a bit steep, but the sommelier helped us select a fabulous bottle of wine.
