What a great end to a long hike in Breakneck Ridge! To start-off, the Focaccia was one of the greatest I’ve ever had! The oysters were so fresh. The Riverview Fish Shellfish Stew was delightful! The broth was so flavorful. And the waitress was thesweetest person! If you ever come to Cold Spring, check this place out!! FYI: this place is cash-only. They do have an ATMmachine.
Very nice food, some food are more Asian like (e.g. the seafood stew) but they are delicious. Does not have a clocktail menu, but the bar table has pretty much everything to make a drink you want.
Had a great experience in this place! Amazing service! Our waiter recommended me a nice sparkling wine. Which I loved! We had a tasty pizza and fried calamari. Everything was great! Servers were nice and friendly! And a great view to the river andmountains???? Will definitely go back to this place!
Good place for food after a full day of hike. I like the dessert, the ice cream was made with real vanilla beans. Pizza was good too, although we can get much better pizzas from the city of course. Not too keen about the shoestring chips. Service was a bitslow.
Absolutely amazing food with a wide variety of options (pictured are the Caribbean beef skewers). Excellent wine choices, great service, world class view of the Hudson River. This is a cash only establishment and make a reservation (phone or online),especially for the weekend dining crowd (you'll need it).

Good food, reasonable prices and good service! I would definitely recommend and return! ... big olive oil! And I've been cooking for over 40 years! ... Presentation on the point
Ambiance, cuisine, staff all top notch. Perfectly pleasent atmosphere. Good as it gets. Kudos to all involved with Riverview Restaurant
Without question one of my three most popular restaurants in Hudson Valley. The service is stellar and I cannot say enough good things about food. The Auberginenparm is the best you will ever have. They found out how to make the vegetable taste good without smashing it into sauce and cheese. If you love sushi, the yellow Flo tuna Poke is to die. The menu includes many regions perfectly. Lastly I checked, the wine list needs a little love and I wait for a cocktail list, but maybe this only talks with the old school qualities of this place. They've been in business for over two decades. All this, from a former employee, too. I'm here.
My family and I were here yesterday. The service was great and the food was delicious! We also loved the view! Totally recommended!
We had the most wonderful bridal shower for me sister here. The food was absolutely wonderful. The staff was so incredibly friendly and accommodating. For the price, everything was top notch. I would highly recommend small gatherings here to anyone who's looking for personal service and a relaxed atmosphere. I'm looking forward to coming here again.
