Review:
The River Cafe is one of Brooklyn’s most iconic restaurants, and it is known for its legendary location and award-winning, classic New American menu. The finest, freshest, and often rare ingredients are used to create spectacular dishes such as the Mushroom Wellington or Coquelet.
The brunch menu boasts special treats, including the Waffle Eggs Benedict. Michael Buzzy O’Keefe founded The River Café in 1977 and transformed the abandoned building into the gem it is today. Executive Chef Brad Steelman heads the kitchen.
Enjoy sweeping views of the New York skyline and the Statue of Liberty as you dine underneath the gorgeous Brooklyn Bridge.
