Good service. Friday lunch was not busy at all and sitting outside was great as you can see the boats passing by the river. Food was not bad.

The host and wait staff were amazing. But the food was not good. The Scottish salmon was overcooked. That dish was the special that evening, and you would think it would be cooked to perfection. It simply wasn’t. And the jambalaya was so heavily spiced with black pepper that it was the only thing I could taste in the dish. It left a terrible aftertaste in my mouth for hours. The only good food items we had were the appetizer salads. This restaurant is a miss, and a huge disappointment.

The asiago encrusted scallops might be the best scallop dish I’ve ever had. Service and views exceptional.

My wife and I had our Wedding reception at Rivers Restaurant this past summer 2023. About a month before our wedding, we came across a large issue that forced us to cancel with our previously booked venue. We scrambled to find a new venue, and quickly came across Rivers Restaurant. From the moment we reached out to them, they were extremely responsive, professional, and attentive to our situation, and had us come in immediately for a meeting to discuss the details at length to get us set up at their beautiful venue for the (luckily) available date. Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with, and her wait staff did an amazing job at the reception. Dan was thorough, honest, and very helpful from the very first meeting. I could not recommend Rivers Restaurant more as an event or reception venue. 10/10.

Nice location next to river. Server attentive. Good American fare and Americanized ethnic foods. Nice variety of choice. Food nicely seasoned. Nice size portions. Took a star off for the ice cream that had lots of ice chips, possibly refrozen

Cool after work spot. Just came for some drinks and small, shared eats, but I’ll definitely be back. Nice, large patio on the river. The service was great, but did degrade a bit as the place got busier. To be expected, I suppose.

So mediocre. I got the corn soup and fish tacos. The soup was not good, and the tacos were okay. South Branch is a much better option right around the corner. The patio outside looked nice but that’s probably the only thing this place has going for it. So many better options in the area.

I had an amazing experience at Rivers Restaurant! The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. I highly recommend the burger and the salmon entree. The beet and arugula salad was also tasty, but didn’t look too appetizing. The restaurant has a beautiful waterfront location overlooking the Chicago River. The staff was attentive and friendly, especially JEFF and Stephanie who made my dining experience a 5-star one. I also enjoyed the selection of craft beers and other liquors. The Cucumber Basil Lemonade was a refreshing drink that I highly recommend. The appetizers were all excellent, especially the crab cakes, calamari, guacamole tower, and the Shrimp Bruschetta. For the main entree, I had the Shrimp Risotto which was very good, and I also had a taste of the Chilean Sea Bass which was a true winner. Lastly, the Sweet Potato Bread Pudding was a perfect ending to a great meal. Thank you, Rivers Restaurant, for a wonderful dining experience!

I’ve attended Rivers Restaurant numerous times for sorority events but this visit was for a ‘Thank You’ dinner on Aug 23rd. I’ve had their finger foods/appetizers but this was the first time I had dinner. It was a wonderful experience. I started with the Cucumber Basil Lemonade (TRY IT)…very cool, refreshing drink. We ordered a variety of appetizers so I can recommend the crab cakes, calamari, the guacamole tower and THE SHRIMP BRUSCHETTA! All excellent choices. My main entree was the Shrimp Risotto. Very good. I had a taste of the Chilean Sea Bass (a true winner)! My dessert was the Sweet Potato Bread Pudding. Another winner! All in all, great conversation, great food!

Ordered a salad for lunch. It had sat in the fridge for some time. Soft and soggy croutons, wilted lettuce, and half way through I found a very slow and groggy fruit fly that had been in the fridge with the salad. I would only go back to try drinks.
