River received mixed reviews from customers, with some expressing disappointment in the service and the quality of the food, while others praised the unique ambiance, tasty cocktails, and locally sourced dishes. The restaurant offers a cozy cabin atmosphere with a modern vibe and a cool bar, serving creative food and beverages free from pretension.

On the downside, some customers experienced long waits for tables and meals, as well as issues with overcooked food and distracted service. Overall, River seems to appeal to those seeking a unique dining experience with flavorful dishes and innovative cocktails.
It took 20 min for a server to come over, but afterwards everything was flawless. We will return.
We absolutely love River and Woods. I made this reservation for my adult kids who are attending CU and for their sister who was visiting from out east. The food they tell me was outstanding, as usual and the service was wonderful. It is a gift they love to receive to go to this very yummy restaurant when they are so far from home.
Had an 11:15 reservation, got there as they opened at 11. We were greeted kindly and with great attentiveness. Our waitress was a little quiet and not as cheerful as the bar tender but still great! The table behind us were very boisterous and it became irritating midway through our meal, besides that the food was great. Plenty of options and made with care. We will definitely be recommending and returning.
The entire evening went very well! Wonderful birthday celebration with good food and generous portions!
The service took forever, even though the restaurant was quiet. The dishes didn't meet the description on the menu. Our server went MIA, and we had to constantly ask for water. So disappointing.
