Having dinned here on a Wednesday night, we might have had it good with the reservation and amount of people. I called two days ahead to plan a 7 o clock dinner reservation for our anniversary just in case. While on the phone, I was asked if we were dining for a special occasion, so I told the hostess it was our 6 year anniversary. When we arrived, we were swiftly seated and also asked if we would prefer a booth, table, or to be seated outside. Our server, Brooke, was excellent. She was very kind, courteous, and quick with menus, refills, our food, and check. I would recommend her to anyone who plans on dining here! We ordered calamari and the usual bread to start, and steak for the main course. Both were excellent, and you can choose any side you wish from the menu; entrees come with 2. Brooke was informed by the staff that it was our anniversary so she took a moment to congratulate us and give us well wishes. If you're celebrating something, desert is complimentary. We decided to have the cookie dough cheesecake, which was incredible. The chef wrote ""Happy 6 Year Anniversary"" on the top if the plate with chocolate; how it looked so neat is beyond me, I know I would definitely make a mess trying to do that. They also put a candle in the cheesecake. It was hand delivered to our table by the manager and he also congratulated us. In addition to the dessert, they also took our picture which they put in a bi-fold car for us to keep. Overall, the River Room was excellent. Everything including the staff, our server, the food, and the dessert and photo was wonderful. It made for a great anniversary dinner and was well worth the $70 tab before tip. I chose this over Canoe, which we have yet to visit, and was definitely not disappointed whatsoever. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone, even if its for business or just have a taste for something other than the local restaurants. The bar has a different menu with burgers and such. Thank you River Room!
