Riverside Restaurant

Had Melbourne Cup lunch here again a d the Team at the Riverside Resturant and the fuction staff seem to be able to do better each year
Food choice and quality excellent
Wine and Beer choices great
Function set up perfect
Great Value for Money
Have been for breakfast before and was also excellent
Will be back next year for the Cup again

Staff were very pleasant and attentive to our requirements.
The food was plentiful and of a high standard.
The beautiful fresh flowers placed on each table and the table setting/linen created a fine dining expectation snd we were nit disappointed.
A most enjoyable experience.

The whole lunch group was very disappointed with everything what should of been a fun experience for bride to be was a total mess

Excellent place to eat - good ambience - value for money

Building works ruined the view and both my partner and i suffered from food posioning. It did not end well.

I would particularly like to complement the staff they were exceptional!!

We had a wonderful couple of hours celebrating Father's Day, staff welcoming and food fabulous thankyou ...after a very stressful few months this was most welcome thankyou x

Fantastic service and the food was delicious! All staff were so friendly and even organised surprise birthday pancakes for my daughter! You made it such a wonderful experience for us all. Thank you!

Please refer to the Messenger message I sent in regards to this

We can't recommend this Restaurant highly enough, the Chef ,Gabriel came to our table when my husband wanted an entree that wasn't on the menu.
He asked what he wanted, went through all the ingredients and made it exactly as he asked, beyond amazing!
It was my Birthday and un known to us two waitresses appeared at our table with an amazing dessert platter while one waitress sang Happy Birthday.
Memorable evening. Can't say enough about it......

Very nice food, just the main course was too much quantity for us.

but was really good taste and service.

I couldn't see river view on that day due to construction.

I hope i can see nice view next time

On Saturday evening there was also the Pikes brewery/winery degustation event in the restaurant, it would have been better if the event had been held in one of the many conference rooms, and left the restaurant to diners not attending the event.

Staff were focussed more on the Pikes event which meant longer than normal in having orders taken etc, we have eaten in the Riverside Restaurant before and had very good service, hence the reason we chose to eat there again for our anniversary, this was not the normal service we have experienced before and we could have gone to many other restaurants and received similar service.

Food was good but overall a disappointing occasion for us spoilt by the mixing of an event with those who want a more pesraonl occasion.

Thank you for a very enjoyable evening. The stand out was the friendly and professional service of your staff and Maître d’.

Outstanding dinner and service is excellent Thank a million

We four enjoyed our luncheon meals which were delicious and the staff were very attentive and pleasant. We will definitely recommend the Riverside to friends and family.

Exceptional, food, service and atmosphere.
Staff where impeccably presented, well mannered and professional at all times!

I thought since its classed as Fine dining we should've had table cloths.

Lovely meal, great service, would recommend this restaurant, for sure....

Service was excellent by the wait staff. Food was delivered promptly. Told that slow cooked lamb shoulder would not be ready until after 7, as show commenced at 7.30 was unable to order. Sirloin steak, resembled a sizzle steak - very thin, and not a particularly nice cut. Beans ordered as a side were unpleasantly al dente. Overall food was well below value for money.

Everything was outstanding. The staff were all so polite and helpful. Catered to our large group perfectly. Have already recommended to others to go here.

Great venue and very attentive to my groups needs. Accommodated food allergies with flair and made my celebrations go smoothly without hitch.

As always food and service outstanding, large table of people arrived around 7pm and it did start to get louder and we left a bit earlier that planned.

A wonderful place for a meal before heading off to the theatre. We will be back!

Overall the food was a little disappointing.
We had eaten here on many occasions.
Barramundi was over cooked... very mushy but skin was crispy though. French fries were soggy.

Bring back the buffet!!! Like the good old days!

Waiting staff was a bit overboard.... in your face while you’re eating and talking. Not attentive if you needed a top up of your wine which I had to mentioned to them.

we stayed Friday to Sunday a Winter-staycation, we had Lunch on Friday two Breakfasts and Saturday Dinner.

we highly recommend your Staff for their services, it is a great pleasure to attend your River Side restaurant, we will meet again.

perhaps for High coffee on a Saturday afternoon

A great place to dine before a show with a perfect location near both Adelaide Convention center and Festival theatre in walking distance. Staff are great, very attentive yet discrete.
Good was stunning and delicious.
Remember to give yourself plenty of time to enjoy the experience before a show as you won't be the only ones taking advantage of the location.
Fantastic night.
Thanks

Great staff, excellent service. Good atmosphere for a quiet lunch.

We celebrated our daughter’s 4th birthday. Service was good and we are happy with the lunch menu. We ordered a cake and it was delicious. Only thing was we were charged twice for the cake which was refunded upon notifying. Great place for any special occasions.

Riverside Restaurant was visited a couple of times whilst I was on a business trip recently - slightly noisy due to external building works that were being undertaken, but otherwise quite a pleasant environment to sit and enjoy a business conversation of just conduct some private business whilst enjoying a terrific breakfast or lunch.

12 friends with my wife and myself enjoyed lunch high tea on Sunday 9th June, the food and service was excellent.
The only complaint we had was the pumpkin soup, we said to the waiter that the soup had a fish taste and was there seafood in the soup. The waiter said he would check with the kitchen, he advised us that the chef said they used a fish stock in the pumpkin soup.
One of our guests doesn’t eat seafood and wouldn’t eat the soup, they did offer her another dish.
I don’t understand why the waiting staff were not informed the the pumpkin soup that was normally vegetables soup had a base of fish stock.
When I phoned and complained to the staff and informed them what had happened they said we would have been advised what was in the soup and offered a vegetarian option. This was definitely not the case. This should have been bought to our attention because a person in our group could have had an allergy to seafood and wouldn’t have exspected a seafood base in a pumpkin soup.

I love dining at Riverside as they are respectful of my dietary requirements.
I was celebrating a birthday and they made me a beautiful " happy birthday " chocolate message with pretty flowers.
They also took a photo of me absolutely super as i look so natural one of the best ever taken of me.

one small point when i book on line it does not tell Riverside that i am booking high coffee instead of high tea.

High tea was fabulous, we felt very spoilt!

The service & the food was excellent.outstanding menu which you could choose & there was a lot to choose from the buffet.went out with friends & would go again with my husband sometime.

Food and service was great. For high coffe I was expecting more interaction about coffee. Explamations of coffee origins and the different varieties and tastings etc. Otherwise just a nice lunch.

Nice wine with the lunch menu deal. Pity there wasn't more people there for added atmosphere.

The event was great just a but disappointed were we sat as was a bit drafts & colder area but overall great

Food was ok, service was great. Environment needs an upgrade, very 80s style

The High Tea was pleasant and of a good standard however when purchasing the voucher we upgraded to the better quality Mumm Champagne. When arriving we were automatically served the cheaper champagne. The error was corrected but only after we mentioned it.

We then wanted a second glass of champagne and were told that it would be at a price of $30 per glass which is ridiculously excessive for Mumm champagne. We were then informed that we could only buy a bottle. Needless to say we declined.

High tea to celebrate a birthday.
Food was very nice and plentiful for 2 people. Window seat would be lovely on a sunny winters day.

Great service at Riverside. I really enjoyed a late night meal around 8 pm on a week night.
