Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our valued customers have to say about their dining experience.
"Are you looking for an elegant location in Brooklyn with a stunning view of Manhattan? This is your choice. The atmosphere is beautiful. The food on the menu is Michelin-star quality dishes. The River Café offers a dine-in experience or a dine-in experience for extravagant weddings. I recently had my sister’s wedding reception here and everything from the ceremony to the cake cutting was handled with care. It was a top-notch experience. The staff were very polite. The prices were high, and the high costs will bring you top-quality service and Michelin-starred dishes. I highly recommend you try this restaurant out."

"The River Cafe is the most magical place in Brooklyn. I had my wedding there recently and cannot recommend it enough. My husband and I were married in the garden, which was so dreamy and felt like a little oasis within the city. The staff at the River Cafe truly provides white glove service from start to finish. The evening went flawlessly, the food was fantastic (some guests said it was the best meal of their life), and the ambiance is to die for. Thank you so much to Alyson, King, and the entire staff at the River Cafe for making my wedding day so special and perfect. If you are on the fence about getting married here, do it!"

"One of the most romantic restaurants in New York I’ve been coming here for years recently every Valentine’s Day. The service is impeccable and the food pricey but worth every penny the Wawa was spectacular. The big standout was the truffle ravioli. I had the Dover saw, and the Salmon gave a great suggestion of an affordable Montre Shea, which was delicious."
