Reviews River View Restaurant

Great food, great service. Lovely evening all round for a special event

It's our second visit and the service is fantastic. Friendly staff and the food is delicious. Would definitely recommend to friends. Love it✊👌💃💃💃

As usual, we had an absolutely brilliant time. Food was excellent and service was great too.

Fantastic seafood and chinese with efficient service. Lovely local restaurant.

The food was something really special. We had a whole variety and the Peking duck and pancake was honestly the best I have had. The waiters were on point and timely perhaps because we arrived @ 8:45 pm on Sunday and they weren’t to busy.. Only thing they could perhaps work on is their toiletry facilities because there wasn’t a changing table or facility to change my one year old son.

We were disappointed with the service from the kitchen. It was a busy evening with a large number of waiters and waitresses serving many tables. Not every able was in use though. The time interval between courses was too long. After two hours we were only just being served part of our main course. Very disappointing as we have been going to this restaurant for over 25 years. It was all blamed on it being Chinese New Year. Not exactly a surprise given the date.

The Riverview is a great restaurant, built upon great food, and great views of London. We have been going to the restaurant for years, and never had a bad experience. The staff are friendly, and for a restaurant with the quality of food that this place has, would thoroughly recommend.

If this is your local chinese its ok, but dont bother to travel any distance to eat there, no atmosphere as such - went on a Friday night half empty. Food not memorable - although lobster in ginger good. Cant reconcile chicken breast in crispy coating with mustard sauce (which was actually english mustard from a jar) as being in anyway Chinese. Food quite expense for what it is. Staff fine and service good. Dont know if it was the weather but dont believe all the hype about a river view setting the location is nothing to write home about.

Excellent service. They didn’t mind that a couple of people on our table were going to be late. Food was excellent except for the bbq sauce which was thick and lumpy but as I said to my guest ‘who orders bbq sauce in a Chinese restaurant?’

Lovely location and friendly staff. Food is good quality and not greasy. Shared aromatic duck to start - the full portion for six adults was about right. We all went for fish mains which were delicious. It would be nice to have a better choice of beer on the menu. We will revisit.
