the only bad thing is that when we left, we ordered a taxi to Manhattan, leaving $ 15 and they sent a remise which cost $ 45, without notice that it was remise taxi instead, when I asked for a taxi, NOT a remise

The River Cafe is located on the Broklyn side of the East River and has a great view of the Manhattan skyline. Combine the resturant visit with a strol over the Broklyn bridge and you will have a great experience. The food was not that good and the prices are high. The clientele is also old so i would not recomend it for young people.

We just loved it. The food and the service was excellent. We liked very much the concept that all the food had the same price - 100 dr for 3 courses. That is a OK price for all that good food:-)

We had lovely evening at the River Cafe. I'd recommend arriving before dusk to get the view of Manhatten during the day and then also seeing the city at night. Food was fantastic. Service was great. It is bit expensive but it's worth it as a special night out especially as a visitor to the city.

We had a lovely time and the portions were substantial! We had a lovely night and despite not being near the window as requested had a lovely view of the manhattan skyline at night. I did find however, that the foie gras disagreed with me and I subsequently sent the night on the loo. This restaurant is expensive so make sure you save up; We paid almost $400 for 2 and didn't order expensive wine.
