    Birthday cake
    Farrah R.

    I'm honestly not sure what was worse -- the subpar food, the warm cocktails, or the attitude from our waitress. I drove over an hour to celebrate my mom's birthday here, expecting a memorable experience. Instead, it was completely underwhelming from start to finish. The food was mediocre at best -- nothing worth the drive or the price point. Crab cake had a weird gravy drenched all over it. My fish was nothing memorable, I could have made it at home. My cocktail was served warm and barely tasted like it contained any alcohol. I had to send them back. When you're charging restaurant prices, at the very least the drinks should be properly made and properly chilled. The service was just as disappointing. Our waitress was short, uninterested, and gave the impression that we were inconveniencing her simply by being there. When she brought the cake for my mom she just dropped it on the table like she was a dog. For a place that markets itself as a nice dining experience, this fell far below expectations. I won't be returning -- and I truly regret choosing this restaurant for such a special occasion to celebrate my mom who means the world to me. She deserves better.

    Parmesan Crusted Chicken
    Shannon S.

    I came here with my family for a special occasion and we ordered drinks and some appetizers. We got the calamari and the charcuterie plate. The charcuterie plate was really good- the cheeses were especially good. Honestly, the crackers were just okay but everything else on the board was great. I got the Parmesan Crusted Chicken as my entree and that was cooked very well. It wasn't dry and the sauce was great. My drink was just okay- it was the peppermint martini. Our waitress was very kind and provided recommendations for the appetizers. Riverwinds is a gorgeous restaurant and you're def coming here for the views!

    Colossal Buffalo Shrimp Shrimp are delicious, well flavored, very big.

    First time visiting and the restaurant has beautiful landscaping, plenty of parking. Upon entering the establishment is very clean and we were greeted by the hostess. Spacious dining area. Amber was our waitress and she was friendly, courteous and professional. I ordered colossal buffalo shrimp as an appetizer, shrimp scampi as an entree that came with a salad and ice cream. My daughter ordered calamari as an appetizer, crab cake as an entree and it came with lobster cream sauce, mashed potatoes, asparagus and salad. Food is delicious, well flavored and cooked to perfection. Reasonable prices, large portions and I will visit this restaurant. Restaurant is by the water with beautiful view.

    Great views from the high-tops by the windows and a full wraparound bar with a solid cocktail menu. Drinks were great, but the beer list is limited to about five options. There is a dress code, so keep that in mind. The menu is seafood-heavy with a lot of tempting appetizers. We're not big on seafood, so we went with the hummus dip--creamy with a little heat and served with fresh veggies and pita. Afterward, we walked along the water and relaxed on a bench. Beautiful setting. We'll be back for drinks.

    First time here spending some quality time with my family. My uncle is a regular at this place and his recommendation to come here did not disappoint. Service was on point and the food was even better--Can't wait to come back to this place again! Thanks Riverwinds

    Beautiful atmosphere... my sever was polite. I order the crispy calamari and a class of deroy Chardonnay. I was along and the other servers wouldn't check on me, or even share a greeting, to see if I was doing ok. If there was anything else I need. I expect this sometime when all of the servers are women. I am very looking Man Wink wink, when you have a group of servers that are women... they tend to be very chatty with regular customers and among themselves, ignore a new face that they're not familiar with. I would offer more stars however the other servers wasn't good to me at all.

    The view is going to get me every single time!!!! Today i realized they have happy hour from 11am- 6pm....... you're reading that right. ALL DAY LONG. The bartender was great and made some good recommendations. I thought the drinks could be more tasteful. The shrimp on the buffalo shrimp was the size of a small orange. It was DELICIOUS!

    Romaine Heart Caesar Salad
    Joshua L.

    My step father in law, asked me to book a reservation here so he can ask my mother in law to marry him. I did not see River Winds (RW) on Open Table or Resy. However, I went on their website and they had an online form you can fill out to book a reservation. Then you wait for someone to confirm it. I just want to make a suggestion that, I think RW should look into these electronic services. It will make things easier for their patrons. I sat at the bar while waiting for my in laws and wow the view. This place is wonderfully designed with large windows. We ordered our non-alcoholic beverages, and waited for our parents. When our parents arrived, the hostess sat them in a dinning room with beautiful windows. The place decor is very nice. Definitely a place to go for special occasions. We sat down and I ordered a house special $35.00 which included a Pork chop drenched in Jack Daniel's sauce and soft mash with the skin still in it. It came with a Caesar Salad and I got a vanilla ice cream. RW offers great value. Service was great, shout out to Ni! She came at the perfect time and did phenomenal. Overall, I am really upset I took so long to come here. Not sure if this is a hidden gem, but it's awesome.

    Quality service and excellent food! This is my third time here. Each time I come, I am in awe of the ambiance and service. We started our meal with the stuffed mushrooms and calamari ~ delectable! For our entrees we had ~ crab cake, jack daniels pork chop, and the salmon! Everything was delicious!

    Another great outing at RiverWinds on the return! The crab cake is still immaculate and as delicious as the first time I tried it. Our server was so fun and down to earth, very knowledgeable of the menu, had great food recommendations for my friend who hadn't eaten there before, and recommended a great dessert (I didn't need it but why not?). Love the spot right by the window being able to look out at the water and enjoy the sunset. Again, if you haven't been, please get there! Such a great place for group or solo dinners, and a cute date night!

    Shrimp Cocktail
    Sherry J.

    We specifically found this restaurant to watch planes landing across the river. It was dark, but we could still see them. We sat at the bar and watched, but would definitely like to come back during the day. We ordered shrimp cocktail, filet mignon, and the crabby delight which was a huge amount of jumbo lumb crab over pasta. We shared both, and service at the bar was terrific. We will definitely be back.

I'm not saying that I would come here if I wasn't staying on site, but for someone who spends 100 nights or more a year in hotels, I've seen some pretty bad breakfasts... I think I was most surprised by the potatoes that were actually crispy and not soggy like the norm. Eggs, bacon, sausage, variety of breads and muffins and a few juice options filled the void. Service wasn't great, but the hostess did offer me a carafe of coffee. So again, the need was met. If you're staying at the doubletree and want a quiet place to be left alone to eat a quick breakfast before catching a flight or hitting the road, the Landing is a decent option!

Overwhelming smell of pot at entrance and could smell throughout restaurant. It's a "seat yourself place" which works when the staff has clean tables for patrons to sit. Not the case here. After asking 3 times we cleaned a table so we could sit. Took the waiter 15 mins to make initial contact. He was pleasant once he did, but the wait was unnecessarily long. Ordered 2 glasses of wine which we grabbed at bar bc they never arrived. Chicken Caesar Salad and burger was flavorful. Ordered soup too but never received it. When asked, the waiter said they were out and forgot to tell us. So, not great service and ok food. It's a shame as it's the only place to eat in reasonable/late walking distance. The hotel has a relative monopoly on food/drink service and could make it a much better experience w better talent management.

They serve you fresh waster (Drinks to order include Hanks, Boylan's, Harney and Sons, Teas etc.) and will serve you at the table or you can walk up and order at the counter. Their menu has a great mix of deli, steak, "chicken" steak, meatball, sausage and cutlet sandwiches with interesting flavor combos. You can also get breakfast (till 11AM) or a salad. They also have sides that include - tots, fried pickle chips, onion rings, fries, fried mozzarella and Zayda's pickle spears, chips and cherry pepper shooters. They have a couple of vegan options and GF rolls for extra $$. The staff was more than happy to give recommendations and their favs. My first lunch was The Eye - $15 Ribeye steak, Cooper Sharp American, fried onions came on a seeded Liscio's roll. If you enjoy the somewhat newer Cooper sharp style that's out there you'll like theirs. The Cooper sharp was gooey, mixed in well with the meat and on the heavier side. The ribeye was thin cut, delicious and the portion was pretty hefty. Second visit I went with - The Nad - $15 Chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, Mike's Hot Honey that came on an unseeded Liscio's roll. The portion size was good, chicken was fresh with good breading, the hot honey was a tad on the heavy side, but the flavors all came together pretty good on this one. Sweet, salty, light bitterness from the arugula and some heat from the hot honey. I added Thin Cut Idaho fries to make it a combo for $3 extra and I have to say they were delicious. They smelled like McD's and tasted similar. They are cash only, but have an ATM on site. You can use a card if you order online. The one bathroom they have was pretty clean and organized. I will certainly stop back for a visit if I'm in the area to try out more of their menu. Thanks guys!

The food you see in my pics was about $20 in total (via deals mentioned later). Unbeatable in this economy! The garden bar is always amazing. Sometimes the croutons run low (understandable being the highlight of any good salad haha) but most things get refilled consistently. Tastes fresh and never gets boring! Ok so you gotta join the free email rewards. They always have good deals throughout the week. $7 burger meals are hard to beat. Add on the garden bar for another $7, which has some pastas, potato salad, protein, and fruit, on top of your typical salad options. It's nice taking the onions, tomoatos, cucumbers, peppers, mushrooms, cheese, and putting it in the entree (like a burger). It truly elevates the meal. If you have extras you can take it to go to really get your moneys worth I almost knocked it down a star for the restroom being not the cleanest, the stall door being wonky/not locking but hey I really can't complain with the value we're getting here, it's easily overlookable. One other thing to note was it looked like our server was the bartender (a bit understaffed) which added maybe a 10-15 min wait in total, not a problem especially given you can start out with the garden bar pretty much as soon as you're seated. The atmosphere is pretty chill and cozy. Not loud (no loud music or anything despite having a bar), nice dim/calm setting to relax and enjoy a nice meal. And plenty of parking. Highly recommend!

This was adjacent to our departure gate. We had a 6AM fight out of SFO and had been up since 2:15. We had a light breakfast on the plane and by the time we got to Philadelphia we were a bit hungry. Alan walked over, looked at their menu and suggested splitting a Philly Cheese Steak. I couldn't face that and, truth be told, he couldn't have eaten it either because of the sodium. His next suggestion was a hamburger. We agreed to have it medium rare. Rather than going over and eating in the restaurant itself, he ordered it and brought it back to where I was sitting at the gate. The hamburger was accompanied by hand cut, crispy fries and were just a bit on the salty side. Maybe the oil they were fried in was salted.
