The restaurant offers a great variety of delicious menu options, including choices for people with alternative dietary needs. The standout dish was the duck. While the wine list is expansive and includes high-quality half bottles, there were concerns about the inconsistent dress code enforcement. The seating arrangement was criticized for being cramped and uncomfortable. On the other hand, the River Crab hotel received praise for its service and food quality, making it a great spot for special occasions. Despite some service mishaps and unfavorable food experiences, the view and menu offerings received high marks from many guests, making it a recommended choice for celebrations and out-of-town visitors.

For a large restaurant , noise was minimal. There's enough spacing between tables, so one is not subjected to hearing someone else's conversation. This seems to be a welcome feature of most Landry restaurants.Your prices are the highest we have encountered at most better restaurants including Landry restaurants. The most we have paid, including a 20% tip was $100. In Florida we go to your type of restaurant once a month. Our $128 bill at the River Crab restricts us to consider it only a "special occasion" restaurant.

Took my bride of 43 years to celebrate our Anniversary. Was thrilled with the seating, the view, great wine selection, appitizers, and the food, ( salmon selection), was so good! Our server, Taylor was really friendly and enhanced our dinner experience. 50 mile drive was worth it! Will not be 30 years before we visit again. Thank You.

Service was slow. Waitress got order wrong, resulting in one entree being served 10 minutes after the others. Great location.

My husband and I came here to celebrate our 2 year anniversary, and we had an unforgettable experience! The views alone make this place worth a visit for a special occasion, but other than that, the food and drinks were also wonderful. I will say, befully prepared to spend a lot of money, but I do think it?s worth it. The menu is a fixed price menu $180 per person whichincluded an appetizer, entree, dessert, and some chef samples along the way , so definitely look into that on their websitebefore you go. There is also a dress code jackets for men, etc. . The staff was so kind and attentive, and they made us feelvery special on our anniversary, even bringing out a dessert that had ?Happy Anniversary? written on it. This was truly the mostmemorable dining experience we have ever had. We highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone!

From my arrival to the end of the meal, the staff was amazing! So friendly, professional, and polite. The food is delicious and the presentation is top-tier. The amazing views are definitely another reason to dine here. I mean who doesn?t want to saythey?ve basically fine dined under the Brooklyn bridge?! From birthdays to anniversaries, The River Café is a restaurant wellworth a visit. Just be sure to book in advance, you?ll be thankful you did.
