Great service, great food, great views. The staff are extremely helpful and attentive.
Service and COVID protocols were excellent! Roast Branzino and bruschetta were delicious and the views fantastic.
My husband randomly picked this restaurant to celebrate with my son and his new wife and her parents just based on location and the views of the river. We were pleasantly surprised at how good our entire meal was from the drinks, appetizers, main course and dessert! Our server, Destiny, was outstanding! She made perfect recommendations on the food and let us know about the portion sizes so we shared a few things between the six of us. It was great! We sat outside and had the heater on us and it was just great!
Love it!!! Love it!!!! My son, myself and granddaughter loved the food, the seating outside was sunny and beautiful, our waiter was awesome!
Went for the view and drinks
The food was top-shelf a little pricey but good great atmosphere great scenery inside and out I would love to do a private event here
Birthday Dinner was amazing!!! The food was excellent and service was on point.
This was a really great find for a Friday lunch outdoors. The food was delicious and portions were generous. The carrot dish and mushroom dish as sides were just as tasty as the roasted chicken. The river view is nice and fun to watch the boats go by.
We would definitely return.
Beautiful views, kind staff, and the palomas are the best palomas I've had to date!
Staff was amazing and so was the food! The view of the river was spectacular!
Great view - best service I’ve had during COVID. People were so nice and the food was excellent. Will be returning in the near future
The roasted chicken was so tender and tasty. The outdoor seating gave spectacular views of the water. The waitstaff was very friendly and accommodating. I will definitely visit on my next stay in Chicago.
Horrible service. Food have no flavor. Will not be returning.
Great for lunch. Sunny deck with heaters when it gets cool.
Our server and the guest host were amazing! My husband and some friends went for brunch and food was out of this world!
We sat inside and it felt like being outside- it was cold. People were wearing coats. It took the waiter 10 minutes before he came over after we sat down.He was apologetic. He was more attentive after that. We ordered salads which were very large and pretty good. I ordered the roast beef and it was done right, but not hot. My wifes fish didn't have much flavor. Then the bill came and we were surprised that it was $220 for 2 people- we did order drinks, but it wasnt cheap. Would not go back
FANTASTIC ALL AROUND! The view was amazing, host was helpful in helping us select food for our group, and the vibes were amazing!
The food here is great. Roasted chicken is recommended. Enjoy the food with the view of Chicago river.
Overall a great experience. Food is always good and cocktails are outstanding.
Delicioso!
Amazing view. Amazing food. Amazing service. Loved it!
Divya! I'm so glad you had an amazing time! I see you joined us for lunch, but be sure to come back for dinner. The views during the twilight hours are to die for.
It was an awesome experience! I can’t wait to go back!!
Great service, amazing food, beautiful view! Perfect for date night
Perfect place for after work drinks and food on the river.
Love the Food & Service - Drink Wine because you get more for your money over the cocktails.
Limited menu...server didn’t tell me there was an allergen comprise until 15 min after placing order then my alternate choice was served different from the menu and I was told that it was cross contaminated as well. Wasn’t told it would be different u til after it was served
Good experience
This is my first time to eat at River Roast.....Love the foods and the view.
Just an FYI -- showed up for our reservation and doors were closed/locked. Restaurant should not accept Open Table if it is closed. Advice to others ... double check before traveling there.
Really really great meal and the service was excellent.
Great food, friendly staff, and a cool view on the Chicago River
We had a great time celebrating our daughter’s birthday and enjoying the amazing view! The abundance of patio heaters, evergreen trees and string lighting made for a very cozy and inviting atmosphere. The service was great and the distancing guidelines were in full effect. All of us enjoyed our entrees and would highly recommend the Mushroom Toast, Mac & Cheese, Prime Rib, and Chicken Pot Pie. They even brought out a huge slice chocolate birthday cake for my daughter! Very special!!
Poor service. Staff was inattentive the moment we got there. After 25 minutes of being seated and no signs of our waiter, we left. We even flagged another server to grab our waiter and still, no one came.
I would recommend good food great views and classy place8l
