    We recently dined here as a party of three for a birthday celebration and would not recommend. Two of us were vegetarians and shared the vegetarian main (maravista farm zucchini gnudi, whipped ricotta, sage brown butter. For $41 it was arguably the worst vegetarian fine dining main we have eaten and we frequent fining restaurants. It was extremely bland and dry. We can't even compliment one element of this dish. We also ordered the broccolini and Romaine lettuce hearts as sides and both were okay. The broccolini was overcooked but was far more eatable than the main. One of us ordered the snapper and the feedback was that is was okay. The only saving grace were the drinks ordered which were quite nice. The service was also lacking. It was very apparent he did not want to be working. Had to service been more pleasant we would have mentioned our distaste. Such a shame. Hopefully improvements can be made.

    Thank you Sinead for taking the time to leave your review. It is very disappointing to read your comments regarding our vegetarian dish as we generally receive good feedback. I will however share your comments with our head chef to look at ways we can improve or changed our vegetarian offering. We do change most of our menu dishes seasonally. Great to hear the drinks you received were enjoyable and of course we will address your feedback regarding the service you received as this is not the way we would want our guests to feel when dining. Thanks again for taking the time to provide your feedback and we do hope you will dine with us in the near future.

    Food was pretty good. Service was not great, had to literally flag down and ask for everything, to pour wine, for water, for wine menu, really was not attentive at all, for what was recommended as a wonderful place. Saw staff constantly eating chips from bowls ready for service. Then everyone was on re setting for next day service rather then catering for the people who were still there, pretty average on that front
    Rickys River Bar and RestaurantResponded on 31 January 2025
    Thank you Elizabeth for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are pleased to hear you found the food to be good. It is unfortunate to hear you did not receive our usually high standard of service on this occasion. We will ensure to share your feedback with our front of house team to make sure this does not happen again as it not the way we would like our guests to leave. Thank you again for taking the time to leave your feedback, and we do hope you will try us again in the future.

    Food was amazing. Darren was a delight. Had a really lovely afternoon. Wasn’t rushed, thoroughly enjoyed everything including the baby water dragons scurrying around outside our window. Will be back (again)!
