Feedback
The River Cafe offers a picturesque location in the park by the river, making it a great spot for a special occasion. While the service is generally good, with great presentation and atmosphere, the food quality seems to be inconsistent. Some dishes are praised for their delicious flavors and perfect preparation, while others are criticized for being bland or overly salty. The portion sizes are also mentioned as being on the small side, leaving some patrons feeling hungry and disappointed. Despite this, the upscale feel of the restaurant, combined with the beautiful surroundings and attentive service, still make it a worthwhile dining option for those seeking a high-end experience in Calgary.
Service was slow. Waitress got order wrong, resulting in one entree being served 10 minutes after the others. Great location.
We had a great time at the River Crab on 4th of July. The weather was spectacular so we decided to sit outside. It was perfect - the yellow umbrellas and the blue sky and water made a serene setting. Our waitress was attentive and met all our needs. The food was excellent and we hated to leave. We will definitely be back and I have been spreading the word about this place. Watching the boats on the water is a big plus. We hope to come back for a sailboat ride and lunch now that is being offered during the week.
To some it up... disappointed! Should have taken note from reviews. Place has potential. The entrees absolutely horrible. Ordered potato encrusted whitefish... potatoes not cooked was gross. Wife's beef medallions torched! The bread was excellent as well as the wine, other than that nothing great about this muer locationWill not be back
Waited too long for our main course, approximately 40+ minutes after our appetizer, lucky we have our afternoon off
Server was a little distracted with other staff and other things
