Absolutely fantastic. Great weather for sitting on the patio. Killer service. Our server Gianna used her knowledge and helped when debating between items on the menu. Her recommendations were SPOT ON. Went with the Lamb Salad -lamb cooked to perfection-and the Duck special-cooked to perfection. We also got an appetizer of calamari that was devoured before we even thought to take a photo. To top the fantastic meal off, I went with the Lemon Raspberry Torte *chefs kiss*

It was a rainy day but we were still able to sit outside under the canopy and enjoy the river views. The waitstaff were friendly and attentive. Food was yummy, but a tad pricey. Someone in my group ordered the scallop special, it was $57.00 for 4 scallops. FYI: I would ask the price before ordering a special.

Good service. The food was ok. The venue itself has a nice waterfront view of the Hudson, which is what you can expect for its location.

My roommate and her friend invited me out for dinner and we decided to go to the waterfront and eat at the River grill. The staff was fantastic our waiter was very helpful in helping us make great food choices for our meal. The chicken wings were very good I was expecting it to be very greasy or oily and it was not at all it felt almost light. The Filet Mignon was excellent, I was surprised because the presentation was kinda meh but the food was great melted in my mouth and was very tasty. The cheesecake was absolutely amazing all the way around it was just so so good. The ambiance was fine we were on the enclosed eating area and we all had a great time

The restaurant setting is intimate and comforting. The wine and food was amazing!! The most delicious tiramisu I’ve had in a long time. Great staff with a great view. Sitting right on the water. I’ll definitely dine here again.

Food was ok and portion size was decent but service was sub par. First, we had our puppy with us so we had to sit outside, which was fine. But even though there were ample seating facing the water, we were told that we had to sit on the side of the patio. Then the waiter came to take our order and my boyfriend ordered a soda and I settled for water. The soda came right away but my water actually never came even though we asked for it again when our waiter came to take our orders. Then finally the busboy noticed that we had no water while he’s making his water refill rounds so he was kind enough to get us some water. Food came out very slow and our bread basket actually came out with our appetizers. And the girl (the hostess) who gave use the basket just dropped it own without much of any eye contact or smile. We didn’t even have small plates with which to eat the bread. Afterwards the busboy was the one who gave us the olive oil with balsamic vinegar for dipping. Then when we opened our utensils, both of our knives had very obvious food stains on it. How can someone even wrap them in a napkin like that?! Seriously wonder how clean the rest of the plates and cups are. Then when I asked to switch, our waiter didn’t even apologize for the food stains but just went of course let me switch it for u, like it was just a normal thing. Really?

I had a lovely baby shower here. It was small about 25 people and we had the inside to ourselves. The food was delicious, the servers were great- especially Sean ! He was so accommodating and so helpful. The only downside is that we had the inside of the restaurant but it was still public for bathrooms so people were walking in when we were opening gifts.. a little awkward ! But doesn’t change the fact that it was 5 stars !!! I highly recommend coming here for a party or just for dinner ! THANK YOU!

Don’t be fooled by the more chichi options down there at the river… The River Grill is the place to go! The food is amazing and the staff is absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend asking for either Brandon or Gianna to be your waiter/waitress… They are both very attentive, knowledgeable, and just really great service people!

If I could give 0 stars I would! I went to the River Grill this weekend with my boyfriend for Valentines Day. We are both quite young compared to everyone else, 18 and 19. As the owner (I think, male middle age) was going around greeting everyone for coming to the restaurant, he skips our table and looks at us as if we are children and goes on and on to all the other tables. Throughout our dinner, he went over to the other tables about 3 times and still not a word to us. The waitress continues to not come over to our table for about 15 minutes. The only good employee at the restaurant was the bus boy and if we could just give him the entire tip we would have. When we were given our salad, my boyfriend started to choke and ran out of water, both mine and his, and as I am trying to find a waiter or waitress for more water, there was no one in site. The only person that was on the floor a 100% of time was the bus boy doing jobs that was not his problem. I am also quite disgusted by how much they charge for the quality and portion of the meals we were receiving. I know a lot about hospitality since I go to culinary school and this restaurant should not be in business after my visit. So rude and awful service! This is the food we received and our total was 90$?! The mashed potatoes had no taste the only reason I finished my food was cause I was hungry.
