The River Cafe - Reservar una mesa

Sunday lunch experience. Really disappointed in this restaurant having tried to come for the past 18months I was really looking forward to this meal with the family. Now I come out feeling disappointed as I did not enjoy the food nor really the restaurant. It’s highly overpriced in my opinion (24£ for a mini pizza, 25£ for a soup, up to 50£ for a main) and I struggle to understand how it has a Michelin star. Appetizers were the best part, primos the worst, secondis were ok. You should count at least 80£ per person for a good meal, more if you want to drink. I will not be returning any time soon. Having said this, my Italian girlfriend enjoyed it so perhaps it’s a question of taste but we both agree the prices are ridiculous.

Given the reputation and prices, I had much higher expectations and everything about this restaurant is a bit of a let down; the atmosphere is like a cafeteria, it’s very noisy, service was mediocre at best, plating of the food was sloppy and completes the cafeteria experience (there was really no effort or artistry with the plating) and the food was ok, but not memorable and certainly not worth the prices. Terribly underwhelming experience, and certainly would not return given how spoilt for choice we are in London with outstanding restaurants and how much better an experience you’d get elsewhere with £500.

so a great standard of alignment! what made our sock bleed out were the calfsalbehauptung and the mandelkuchen dessert. the wood stove lobster was cooked so well and was also amazing! pasta was an average. all other dishes were very good and all round delicious.

we had the pdr for the evening, with him came extra special love to detail. from the entry to the front before we sit down. our appetizers to the main and desserts were simply absolutely delicious. what a tasty bite. highly recommended.

had a great dinner in the river cafe. one and a half months in advance. eating was absolute perfection. I have underlined the ravioli, the sea bass and the tiramisu.
