Waarom dit pareltjes zijn

Chef-kok: Kristen Livingston

Van de OpenTable-redactie: River Café has been at the forefront of the locavore dining movement since 1991. Set in scenic Prince Island Park by the Bow River, the restaurant’s rustic decor and menu are both inspired by the surrounding nature. Local, seasonal ingredients star in dishes like Lambtastic Farm lamb sirloin with Sudo Farms zucchini. The Wine Spectator-recognized wine list highlights sustainable vineyards.

Took my wife for her birthday dinner celebration. Place is great! Cabin & Christmas vibe: Got to the restaurant around 7pm. Got our main course around 8:30pm. so many people waited at least 2 hours for the main course. Our server is good but I I feel like no one should wait for 1hour + for their food they didn’t even provide complimentary drinks or desserts for the long wait. Food was mid and for the price! No wow factor! Overall place is great but we will never going back for Dinner. We saw so many people are disappointed. No one order desserts because of the long wait.

Food was good, but not at the same level it once was. Server was very pleasant and helpful, but food was a little slow getting to our table. Still, I would recommend this place to anyone.

We love the River Cafe. Service was great and overall we had a fabulous experience. Our coffee was served just warm but was quickly changed once we brought it to our server’s attention. We were there for brunch and I had the halibut fish cakes which I savoured every delicious mouthful, my husband had the artic char Benny but couldn’t taste any char so a little disappointing.

The River Cafe is an iconic choice for a memorable evening or lunch that takes you away from the bustling downtown vibe to a hunting type lodge with a five star feel. Food was a chef special five course event that was timed in a relaxed manner, each . Each course was fantastic with many different tastes and all made us comment that one could make a meal of this! Portions were perfect so to enjoy and satisfy. Felt we eat healthy while spoiling our palettes! Good wine was available at a fair price,so not the case in many 5 star restaurants. What a gem in the heart of Calgary.

It was a most wonderful lunch with a very dear friend! It was a celebration lunch of friendship and also the retirement of my surgical oncologist who I was going to one last time before he is done on December 23rd. I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate that than at the River Cafe!! I had the Flank Steak and my friend had the burger and they were both truly exceptional!! The steak just melted in my mouth and the accompaniments were perfect! The burger was scrumptious…complete with juices running down your fingers as you ate it, as every good burger should be! We didn’t have room for dessert but a delicious cappuccino was still in order! It truly is a magical place to be…wonderful atmosphere, attentive & friendly staff and always mouth watering food!!

A Calgary icon that never disappoints. Service is excellent, attentive, and friendly. While on the pricier side, the food is excellent. Dessert was OK compared to the outstanding mains. Would always recommend a visit to travellers to Calgary.
