Riverside Restaurant North Terrace, Adelaide, South Australia 5000

"Overall, quite an average experience. A group of 9 of us had a high tea on Saturday morning. Most of the staff were far from hospitable. We felt largely ignored by staff members and were left waiting far too long to even order drinks. At one point it felt as if they were purposefully ignoring our table. In terms of food, the sweets and scones were great, but the savoury options were mostly bland and underwhelming- especially for the price. And to top it off we noticed small ants in our food! The staff member we notified sent out fresh food but we were all slightly put off eating at this point. Also, the 9 of us were unable to split the bill (we could only split 5 ways). This needs to be communicated far better- especially for larger bookings. Unfortunately (despite some nice staff members and great sweets) we won’t be returning or recommending a high tea here."

"It was our friends birthday breakfast celebration at Riverside restaurant. My sister booked for about 25 or more people, I was quite impressed with the service especially with Chef Vivien Lee and Chief Annaya they try to get out of there way to make sure we are all satisfied and happy. They were very attentive and the food was delicious and fresh. Definitely love to come back at Riverside restaurant."

"Have visited this place while I was staying at Intercontinental. The breakfast is included in the package. Their breakfast menu is pretty vast. You can choose one of the main dishes from the menu. The fruits, tarts, yoghurt, crossiant, coffee and juice are included with it. Ordered Intercontinental breakfast which is basically Omelette on sourdough with bacon, sausages, tomato, baked beans and hash brown. It was delish. Loved the quality as well as quantity. Tummy fully satisfied! Also ordered, omelette your way which was scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and chices, served with hash browns and roasted tomatoes. Their latte and cappuccino was fantastic, loved their coffee blend! This place serves quality as the ingredients are fresh and the dishes are flavourful!"

"Experienced the High Tea and now the High Coffee. Such a lovely setting, views of the river would be more beautiful when the renovations finish & the construction fences come down. The restaurant staff were lovely but weren’t too attentive as you would expect at such a restaurant."

"Spacious and modern restaurant that’s seldom crowded, but still the food takes a long time to come. Staff is pretty friendly. Food was good. I had Lobster Parpadelle which was delicious! The oysters gave me a slight tummy ache later on in the night though."
