Reviews for The River Café
The sweetest Devon crab I have ever tasted is plated up with rainbow chard and aioli, each ingredient so absolutely the best of its kind that it demands to be eaten by itself in slow appreciation. A slice of culatello di Zibello salami, cut so thinly you can see through it, serves as savoury seasoning for the roast veal chop it is draped over. Dessert is often a bowl of cherries that taste as freshly picked as the white peaches that make it into the famous bellinis.
What a disappointment, far below the standard I would expect at £330 for two.. nothing dreadful, but bad value, average ambiance and worth around half or less of what we paid. Average, average, average, even had to tell them the towels were out in the toilet.. that just about sums about the passion and care. Will never go again. Feel ripped off.
