With panoramic views across the River Thames, The River Restaurant blends The Savoy’s glorious architecture with a light and polished interior, designed by world renowned designer Russell Sage.

    Only issue was failure to update festive menu. The sage and onion stuffing was no longer available on the turkey dish but it was just missed out, had they replaced it with something else it would have been fine, but they did not and it left the dish very sparse. They did compensate the bill but sometimes it not about the money more the experience. It is not our first visit and we will still probably return when we are back in London.

    I was in the River restaurant to my solo birthday lunch and all the attendees looked after me. I felt very welcome, thank you for that. Everyone was super Nice. At the end of the lunch, a little happy birthday sweet was a lovely surprise. The food is amazing, the taste of ceviche was so well balanced between the spice and the citrus; the fish and chips were super crispy and ready to satisfy a huge hunger. The ambiance was stunning, such a beautiful yet cosy place. I really want to repeat the experience next time I go to London.

    Okay, but for a pricey meal you really want more than okay. I felt it was not as strong as the Savoy Grill but from the days of Gordon Ramsey in Claridges the standards and excitement delivered by the menu is not there. Tables are cramped, serving dishes are impractical, chairs and bar stools are uncomfortable. The food is uninspiring and pretentiously delivered and similar meals are delivered up and down the country in more comfortable settings. We really enjoyed Gino d'acampo 's Luciano restaurant next day that admittedly delivered traditional meals, so beautifully though! The pate was fantastic with fruit jellies! fabulous! and the choice of deserts were so interesting. The River did not compare well next to this.

    The food was not bad but very overpriced. My husband had the monkfish with curry. There were just a few small pieces of monkfish in it and the rest was just prawns and sauce. Not what you expect of a main course. Furthermore we ordered a bottle of wine which was definetely not cheap either. One of the staff members kept on serving the wine at such a fast pace almost forcing us to drink it quickly. It felt if it was done on purpose in order so that we could order another (expensive) bottle of wine (which we didn't actually) At last, when making the reservation on the booking form, we mentioned under special occasion that it was an anniversary. However nothing was done with this, such as a table with a good view. Why asking it in the booking form then if there will be no effort made? For a bill over 300 pounds we expected more and would rather spent it in a different restaurant.

    My dinner at Gordon Ramsey's River was superb. Delicious food served by very attentive servers. The Baked Scallops starter was well prepared in a delicious sauce and the Rib Eye Steak was top notch and well complimented by the Creamed Spinach. The "Les Alllee's de Cantemerle" red wine was the perfect choice for the entree. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    I booked breakfast at the River Restaurant as a final treat in a year of dining experiences. I loved the ambiance, the care of the staff, the hospitality. The food was good but for me didn't have the wow factor. Nicely presented but somewhat lacking in taste, the tomatoes in particular. The set menu as indicated on the website wasn't on the menu offered on the day and so I missed out on juices, fruit and bakery basket alongside the vegan breakfast I ordered. I would have liked the pot of coffee rather than individual cups.

    We both had Dover sole as a main course . At £120 we were a bit sad that the top half was dry and a little overcooked . Also we both have been to the River Room on very many occasions and we are sorry to say that the new decor really did not create anything compared with the ambience of previous years . Clearly this is a matter of opinion and choice but next time we stay we will give up the view for the more traditional Grill. All in all we had a marvellous stay at the Savoy but I’m afraid the River Room was somewhat disappointing.

    Excellent ! First time eating at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. Although a little pricey, the food was to die for. Me and my partner had the Beef Wellington, we went for it after seeing his shows on how to perfect it and we where not disappointed. I would recommend the restaurant to anyone thinking about going.

    Really nice dinner. 16th Birthday celebration and everyone had a great time. Probably not as good as the Savoy Grill the last time I was there. Irish Oysters were superb.

    Very disappointing, one of my scallops was burnt, portion size to previous visit was half, our main was only just warm. If we weren’t rushing to the theatre I would of sent them back,

    I have to say i was very disappointed in my experience at the River Restaurant whilst staying at the Savoy for my surprise birthday trip. We had a table booked for 7.30pm but were taken to our table much later than that. The service from the wine waiter left much to be desired as he dribbled wine over the table. Next after ordering our food and waiting a considerable time, the fish i ordered came to the table VERY overdone so much so it was inedible and even the waiter agreed with me so this was sent back to the kitchen which caused my husband to nearly be done with his meal before i received mine back. I would not usually complain like this but you expect a certain level of service and a certain level of excellence when staying & dining at The Savoy. I am grateful that they took money off of our final bill but still with the amount of money we spent this shouldn't of happened in the first place.
