    What a lovely venue. Service was very good. I had the Huevos Rancheros, my husband had the ham eggs Benedict and the fruit bowl. The Huevos were not the best. The tortillas were not crispy, but soggy. Also, there was a STRONG Rosemary flavor to about half of the huevos, as if they had a rosemary infused oil that spilled on to half of the huevos. Not good. My husband's Benedict utilized the Chipotle hollandaise sauce on one half of the Benedict (not the other - weird) which was spicy, even though the menu said it was a lemon hollandaise sauce. My husband cannot tolerate spice. Also, the potatoes served with the Benedict were STRONGLY flavored with Rosemary, and were inedible (IMHO). Maybe we went on an off day. The venue itself is lovely. I think they need a new chef, however.

    Excellent service! Outdoor seating is comfortable and lovely--felt like the French countryside. Macro bowl ingredients were deliciously fresh and carefully presented; prosciutto sandwich was tasty and fresh; fries were excellent. GF options and brunch available on lunch menu. A winner!

    I saw a sign at check in desk at the restaurant that stated "please be seated and yor server will be with you". I sat down and waited for 20 minutes and no one come out to seat me. After 5 minutes passed my reservation time, I walked into the seating area and waited another 5 minutes standing there until a server notices me. I told her that I have reservation at 12:30 PM. She told me that there are no outdoor seating available and that I can sit at any table indoor. I never been to this restaurant previously and I feel a bit turn off by no-one available to seat me when I got to the restaurant. The food was good. Nice outdoor space. Interior of the restaurant was ordinary.

    I would like to highlight that Paul Morales, the F&B manager at the resort, was exceptional. The food was excellent and the ambiance was outstanding. We will be back again soon.

    I really love the ambience. Sitting outdoors on a beautiful fall day. Looked at the menu and prices before I came. Online menu and prices are not the same as the one we were given. A lot of items on the online menu were not there and the prices are much more for what is there. We will probably return. The food is good. Just hope the prices don’t go up anymore and the menu is more stable.

    We always love River Vine. Also, I just wanted to note, I LOVED the new style of Huevos Rancheros -- before, you used an almost salsa like sauce, this new sauce is FANTASTIC. Please don't make any further changes, you have improved your Huevos Rancheros to perfection.
