Cavanaugh's
4.2 / 5 (4338 reviews)

Description

Despite mixed reviews, this Riverfront restaurant offers a romantic ambiance and top-notch service. Dishes like truffle fries and French onion soup stand out, but consistency in food temperature seems to be an issue. While some patrons rave about delicious meals, others receive rare steaks and bland fare. Exceptional service from knowledgeable staff adds a positive touch. The establishment's old-school New York vibe and beautiful river views promise a memorable experience, even if the food quality is inconsistent. Perfect for special occasions or a low-key date night, this restaurant has potential for excellence with a few tweaks.

Our waiter Sergei was very good, the restaurant itself has an oldschool New York vibe, and the views of lights reflecting on the river were beautiful. Husband had a filet that looked like it was barely oz, which he said was only marginal. I had King crab legs, which were mostly good, if a little dry. Our sides of broccoli and Brussels sprouts were perfectly cooked and delicious. Overall, we’d go again just to soak up the vibe, but probably not for the food

At first when we arrived, we were a little concerned because there were drunk guys at the bar that were being very loud. We had a reservation at and we were sat right away. The food was absolutely amazing, the service was wonderful!! My husband and I had a great time!

First of all, the food is excellent. The steaks were cooked to perfection and nicely seasoned. The service was also quite good. Our dinner for two came to $200, which is what I expected...

This was our first time visiting this restaurant. Since it's located within Bally's Casino in Evansville, Indiana, it wouldn’t be fair to compare it to the dining experiences we've had in Las Vegas.
