Riverside Restaurant

Wow. Awesome food and service. Will definitely go again.

One of a few vegan options! White bean puree and grilled eggplant with herb and pomegranate salad and vegan yoghurt labne (30 smackeroos)

Very impressive, great value! Had the best time celebrating my sister's 40th today with high tea. Our waitress Lauren was welcoming and interacted with us well. We selected the standard package and there was an abundance of food, a good variety of sweet and savoury. Even the gluten free option was very impressive, and did not make me feel like I was missing out on anything. This even included a couple pastries! One downside was the gluten free bread. You can get really soft gluten free bread these days but this one was not enjoyable. Towards the end of our high tea we did feel a little 'forgotten'. No one came to ask how we enjoyed ourselves or anything that would generally be asked towards the end of a meal. Would definitely recommend however. Looking forward to visiting again sometime.

Absolutely outstanding. Perfectly balanced, wonderfully paired and an overall fantastic experience. Huge thank you to the team who provided such wonderful service. Made for a very special night.

Food was good. Service non existent terrible for the standard if an International hotel. Sure it was a public holiday but it was not very busy.

We greeted by a polite waiter Malo and walked us to our table and she explained the menu to us and offered her recommendations. We started off with Crispy Tofu with daikon, eggplants and mushroom as a entree to share, everything on the plate marriage well. Then its followed by Pan Fry Salmon(perfect crispy skin on the salmon)and Lamb Shoulders(lamb was very well cooked, onions works well compliment the lamb dish), served by the Chef itself, Vivian. She was very polite and seeking for feedback for the new menu. Last but not least, the cheesecake with stewed apricots and sorbet inside. Cheesecake, sorbet were sweet but fresh strawberries compliments the sweetness of it, not sure about the apricots syrups as it is too sweet for me. Overall dining experience was great experience.

Loved it. High tea was fantastic. Food is excellent. And generous in size. Service needs to be improved. Should be more attentive. Asking for things all the time is not good.

My wife and I have dined at the Riverside Restaurant at the InterContinental on many occasions. Everything from the menu, food and waiting staff, make an enjoyable dining experience. We highly recommend dining at the Riverside.

I was very disappointed with the lack of service received for my hens/bridal shower this weekend . No one greeted us when we arrived - did not receive our ‘champagne upon arrival’ - went to the counter several times to say guest were all here.. had to ask for service many times. No one explained the menu and how it all works.... kept having to ask for our drinks ... I was the guest of honour was offered 1 cup of coffee the whole time ... then there was no milk... which got dumped on the table eventually. No one was attending our table of 15 people properly.. Most of the desert food seemed dry and not fresh. As I said - very disappointed and would not recommend a high tea here for a special event based on the lack of service. Also our table was setup outside of the actual restaurant.. basically in a walkway.... online information says ‘unlimited tea and coffee’ - definitely wasn’t unlimited - quite the opposite - bare minimal.

Absolutely beautiful food and the staff were amazing. Just so lively
