    Usually, dining at the River is a great experience. But this time it was awful. We had a reservation at 7:30pm for 8 guests including 3 young children (2 1/2, 5 and 7 years old). Not only did we have to wait over 10 minutes to be greeted (due to the new organization with the opening of the Gallery) but we had to complain to the manager after a very long wait for our dinner to be served. Seated at 7:45pm, the orders arrived at 8:50pm!!! Over an hour of being served with hungry young children! And that's not all: one of the side dishes was missing; we informed the waitress. But when the side dish was finally served, the guest had finished his main course, of course.... What a shame! And not even compensation (at least, the missing side dish should have been free) The River? Never again!

    I ordered the Dover sole. I wanted it on the bone and was told the restaurant served it off the bone but the chef would cook it on the bone. When it came it just had a central bone. Dover sole on the bone should come with optional head, tail and bones each side. I have never had sole presented in that way and did not expect that in a 5 star restaurant. Gordon Ramsey needs to teach his chefs how to present sole. I have eaten in many 5 star restaurants all over the world and never had it like that. Quite disappointed. It tasted OK but it is tastier cooked and eaten on the bone. It also stays hotter. Maybe the fish is brought into the restaurant like that and it just gets heated up!
