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?’

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.

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.

Expensive, but lovely food. Really enjoyed the evening, would highly recommend this place. We ordered 4 rice, which came in 1 bowl, and that was about £18, which is lumpy for rice! But all in all enjoyed it a lot.

Lovely location, good service. Food was pretty standard, and would have benefitted for a touch more salt, or an addictive such as soy sauce for dumplings.

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.
