Review Riverfront - Panjim

Guys what an underrated place Don’t go by the reviews We were on karaoke night and with vivek around just an wide wisdom and an perfect night to end the goa trip Food on menu varied from local to continental is comprehensive and more than that it has an personal touch that cannot be missed

Went in search for dinner with a good vibe and ended up at this gem of a place in Panjim Lovely location, vibrant ambience with really talented artists performing & customers grooving to the music We ate, soaked in the vibe, danced to some classic hits & sand along whenever we could. The food was ok can be better, the beer was crisp and fresh They do have a nightclub at the bottom section which gives you a whole new feeling and you can dance all the way through the early hours Overall a satisfying experience & had the pleasure to meet the owner too, a man with the best beard I've seen in a while Cheers to the Riverfront !!!

Fantastic service, great food, lovely view, menu worth the money. But, you cannot hear yourself talk, it's way too loud! The music drowns the conversation. Although good singers! But, it's simply too loud for the small place

Great atmosphere for a late night relaxing dinner..!

We went to this Restaurant without any expectation but what we found excellent Ambience,Food and Service The owner Mr Vivek is excellent host and he take care of every of his customer.I strongly recommend this place for visit to this place whenever u r in Goa 👏

Amazing place at an amazing corner location. Nice ambiance and plenty of food and drinks to choose. We enjoyed evening snacks, woodfire and a cupachino.

One of the best happening places in Panji, with a great ambience and beautiful seating beautiful people. The staff, the owner are all very engaging and cheerful. A great place to sit and drink, good music and also the menu is satisfying. Overall a good experience, however yhe cost might make you dicey for few on the list food items.

I enjoyed having dinner here. The vibe was simply amazing. With a guitarist singing amazing songs, augmented the entire aura of this place. Food was delicious too.

Awesome place spend your evening. Good live music, delicious food and drinks. I liked 👍place and could recommend this place all my friends who visits Goa.

After picking up my brother from the airport around 11ish, we were starving ended up at this beautiful restaurant Riverfront! Emmanuel was our waiter and was he good I mean real good! The food was awesome too and the ambiance was super. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Panjim side. Ps. It's open till late night.

I had an American chopsey and a fresh lime soda, very authentic cusine with a nice view and breeze.I liked the ambience and the way they have arranged the sitting.They know to cook well.

Thoroughly enjoyed the cordon bleu, prawns in batter fry, and service was great!!

The manage is so rude and doesn't no how to talk with the guest (also used foul language while giving the bill ) Service is bad Food is below average

Vibrant place near the Panjim Waterfront with music and they even air the English Premier League matches. Good drinks menu and food choices are good too. They stay open until 1am so ideal for a late night.

Guys, i request you not to go here. The one and only place in Goa where food flavor is utter rubbish. Tasteless totally and damn costly. On top of that no salt no spices in the food. They r fooling people in the name of continental / italian food. Plus the staff is so rude. Don't know hoe to treat the customers.<br/>If you dont want to waste ur money please don't go here. U will be damn disappointed.

Asked for veg spicy bean burger, got classic beef burger, that was not cool after mentioning veg burger, they gave beef burger. On top of that, there system has higher value of the products listed in the menu. Attached is pic of bill plus menu price of diet coke.

Not a good place. Sad place with very sad food. The ambience is quiet dull. Out of atleast 10 dishes we ordered, nothing was good. Infact the Stella Beer on the Tap was also not good. What more to say. Don’t recommend this to anyone

Not worth the Price .. just 6 pieces of medium prawns..taste was just normal.

This is one of my favourite restaurant in Goa. It has a large variety of alcohol followed by a large variety of food. The ambience is good and soothing. They have live music on Saturday and Sunday which is mostly packed. It is open till late in the night around 1 am or 2 am. Our server, Sarvesh is the best and he makes sure that our visit to the restaurant is always memorable and enjoyable. Well done!

Good place, visiting goa since last 4 years and was willing to visit since long. Finally done. Visited alone but enjoyed due to live music and was sitting in balcony by watching river at evening. Food is good and service is quick. Ambience is main part which makes it special

The view from this place is amazing, good food served with good view. Loved the food there and moreover enjoyed the view from the table. High five to the staff keep it up ✌️✌️

It's a nice place with yummy food and view but the service was very slow! As in like caterpillar slow! We literally had to go to the billing counter twice to ask them to take our order...but the food was good and we had a good time there

Heard lot about this place so decided to visit.. had very bad experience.<br/>We had booked table through easy dineout app which includes 10% discount (which was not given) server removed the bill before completing meal.. reason was restaurant was on break.. hmmm<br/>We ordered for Goan Fish Curry told to make spicy but received prawns curry which was tasting yuck when I requested server he said kitchen is closed you have to eat this.. was rude<br/>Ordered for Chicken Tikka Masala which was impossible to eat..<br/>Pathetic service..<br/>Will Never go to this place every..<br/>

Amazing ambience and location! On one side u can see the famous Portuguese colonies of Goa and on other side is a beautiful river view. It's a beautiful bar and restaurant. The inside and out is so beautiful u can feel the Goan vibes. The staff here is approachable and are very lively! A huge shout-out to the staff! I just had a pizza and a friend of mine had a beer, and realised its a great place to chill out! Pizza was fresh and is neatly oven tossed! I am pretty sure anyone going here will feel like going here again and again!

This place was on our list since our last visit to Goa.<br/>So finally, this time we visited this place and it became one of my favorites. Service by Sarvesh Sawant is outstanding.<br/>He explained us about everything we asked.<br/>The ambience is typical Goan and soothing and the riverside view adds to it.<br/>Coming to food, I loved the tomato soup and brownie.<br/>Overall had an amazing experience.<br/>Would definitely visit again , on my next trip to Goa.<br/>Cheers to the team!!

A nice place for a sit down dinner, with a view of the Mandovi. The food is decent, the alcohol is cheap, and the service is okay. The quantity was a little less for some of the dishes, but all in all a decent experience.

I and my friends loved this place. It’s a nice little restaurant by the river. The ambience is good and the staff is very courteous. The food was good. If you’re in Panaji, this place is worth a visit :-)

Went in for a light lunch with a couple of colleagues, order a fried beef dish, fried rice and a little stater. All the dishes were disappointing, I tasted more batter than beef, it was the most pathetic beef dish I ever ate. It's says beef on the menu card but the fried batter was the star of the plate. Horrible

If you're in Old Goa and looking for a place to have a nice brunch and not hurt your pocket too much, you should visit this place for sure. Its actually located infront of the Mandovi backwaters and has an awesome view of the riverside if you choose to sit outside... The interiors are pretty rustic, a lot ofnit carved out of wood, ambient lighting helps the overall effect. We went in for Brunch and as it was our first meal of the day... We had a lot of items...<br/>Fiery Chicken Crunch Burger<br/>The classic beef burger<br/>Crumb fried chicken stuffed with rosemary and cheese<br/>Cheese Pepper Steak<br/>Lemon and garlic roast chicken<br/>Veg supreme Pizza<br/>Spaghetti Bolognese Veg<br/>Both the burgers had juicy patties, were not dry and had the right amount of condiments. Fiery chicken was fiery enough and beef patty was well cooked which is the most important thing in a beef based burger.<br/>Crumb fried stuffed chicken was a delight, beaten down chicken breast stuffed with cheese and roller and fried and served along with rice and salad was one of the most innovative dishes I've ever tasted... it appeals a lot to the crowd given the fact that it takes a lot of pain to make it... surprisingly the serving is enough to give you wholesome meal. The lemon and garlic chicken was the best among all the dishes, chicken marinared earlier was grilled and the cooked in rich garlic sauce served with the standard items, delicious, lipsmacking and would leave you salivating for more..!!<br/>The cheese steak was an average affair, the chicken was cooked well but the sauce could have been made a lot better.<br/>Veg supreme pizza was a thin crust wood fired pizza, loved it a lot, fresh veggies used as toppings, right amount of cheese and spices and gave us a balanced taste of a classic pizza.<br/>Spaghetti bolognese was served in a bowl and veggies and sauced topped on it, tasted a bit bland so wasnt really a go for dish.<br/>Overall a good experience, real value for money and if you're in old goa, this can definitely be on your bucket list.<br/><br/>

decent place to go chill out. food quality not really good and has a lack of sauces in dishes. more importantly cost of food doea not justify the taste of food given by the restaurant. good variety of drinks though taxes on drinks are falsely levied in excess. please check bill

Location is very attractive on RIVERFRONT.. But the Food is just the opposite. Not worth the penny spent. <br/>Ambience is very attractive and very nice place to hangout. But the Food is not delicious. <br/>Wasted my time and money visiting this place. Not looking for another visit here.. <br/>We ordered PASTA which was too dry and tasteless.. Pizza was good but for the price the non-veg pieces in the topping was very less.

Good food at affordable prices... the steaks were below 300 and it was worth it.. try the mediterrean steak... coming to the dessert.. the caramel custard and the cakes were a must try

Ordered hot wings and they were nice. Good, spicy flavour. Next. Pasta in red and white sauce both. The white sauce was rich and creamy. The red sauce just felt like tomato puree. The piri piri chicken was delicious but the quantity was too less. Next, the Mediterranean chicken, which is nothing but chicken stuffed with spinach and ricotta, was mediocre. The outside chicken was too salty and the presention could've been better. Ambience is pretty nice with a good view of a local stream, hence the name. Service was below average. Nobody came to the table for a good 15 minutes. Now, despite asking a waiter to take the order, he did not, simply because our table wasn't alloted to him.

Food served is good but Zomato providing false information as always. Restaurant is only partially open all day. For lunch they serve only Indian/Chinese!<br/>All the other cuisines ie Continental/Greek/Italian etc is not available. Get your facts right zomato!!!

A very lively place with live music and a rustic ambience. This is a place for lovers of draught beer. The food here is delicious. The Mongolian chicken, hot garlic chicken was juicy, succulent and full of flavour. Cheese garlic naan was well stuffed and tasty. Batter fried squids had the right crunch. Dont miss the pizzas if u are here. We loved the spicy BBQ pizza we had. Overall if u want to chill out with your friends with good food, fantastic ambience and a tall glass of beer, this is the place to be in Panjim. Prachi Kamat Mhamai

This one is a lovely place with great ambience to chill out. Courteous staff and good service. They serve great mocktails and cocktails. Their pizzas and sizzlers are pretty good. So do try out this place guys.

Very poor service. 1st couple of times visited it was very good service, but visited today absolutely disappointed. Low grade food, rough staff, zero cleanliness.

Great food and good ambience to chill out of you sit in the balcony and not inside the AC . If you are a veggie, try the piri piri cottage cheese.

Absolutley worst service I have ever experienced. Really rude waiter who ruined our evening. I strongly suggest people to go elsewhere. Black Sheep Bistro or Watsons are nearby and a lot better!

Very bad service and no one to serve even after hours of order. Food is OK but the service quality has to improve. Ambience is good and prices are affordable

A very bad restaurant I ever seen. <br/>We waited for tables 30 minutes but no one is there to attend us.<br/>Finally got a place to seat,<br/>We ordered food and it tooks 40 minutes for just single French fries and single beer.<br/>Waiter ask us cancel order and leave hotel because they are not able to serve us.<br/>And most important we ordered mutton handi and got full of Capsicum with just 2-3 pieces.<br/>Food taste was so poor<br/>Staff was arrogant<br/>In short we went for enjoyment and it was very disappointment for us.<br/>

Nice food.. taste and presentation both are nice.. service is smooth.. has outdoor seating as well.. the music is superb.. it's a nice place to go!

Love the ambience of this place ! Nice to place unwind and chill. Good music and peaceful views of the river make for an enjoyable evening. Food is decent - had the squid masala fry & Baileys mousse cake.

Go-to for midnight dinners. The food is average with some good dishes. Go for the lazy ambience, live music or some older classics playing and a view of Panjim's creek. The burgers are good and so are the kathi rolls. I liked the hariyali kebab, the chicken was tender. Piri piri paneer was packed with flavor but the rice was undercooked. They advertised potato skins but served wedges. <br/>The drinks are decent but the Blue Frog has several kinds of alcohol and tastes "weirdly nice", like medicine with a kick. I didn't like it, but my friend did.

Pretty ordinary food. Good place in panjim to chill with friends though. Had good experiences but have stopped visiting now due to some bad experience with the staff there

I was craving for burgers on a Sunday afternoon and decided to give Riverfront a try. Boy was I happy to not be disappointed. We had the Mega Burger which was a bloody beautiful burger. The burger had a nice beefy aroma to it and was not bland at all. It was what a burger should be. Juicy and beefy. However, the burger could've had a much generous helping of mushrooms and bacon, and could've been a tad wider, but besides that definitely delicious. We also ordered a side of cheesy fries, but were terribly let down. We expected an ooey gooey deep yellow cheddar sauce, but were presented with fries that had grated processed cheese. Not very cheesy, and could've done with a lot more cheese, and not just a handful on the top.<br/><br/> Coming to the wood fired pizza. We ordered a Quattro Formagio and a Spicy BBQ Chicken in one pizza. The Quattro Formagio was alright. I would've personally liked some mozzarella to balance out the saltiness of the other cheeses. But the disappointment was definitely the BBQ chicken. Spicy no doubt, but the sauce was the same. It tasted pretty similar to the Quattro Formagio and that's probably because of the tomato base. <br/><br/>The Strawberry Mint cooler was a perfect respite from the afternoon warmth and the caramel pudding was beautiful in its own way.

Ambience 4/5<br/>Food served 1/5<br/>The food that we were served was bland,boring and tasteless.<br/>You guys need to seriously step up your game and rework your menu if you can deliver to it which includes tasteless pasta, your so called "Spicy" bean burger which wasn't spicy at all and your lifeless overpriced falafel.

The one great thing about this place is that as its name suggests it is next to a river/canal which makes the ambience quite good. That being said I will mention that it is not something terrific as there are many restaurants with far better views from the seat. However, in this area this restaurant might be the one with the best view.<br/><br/>The restaurant also has internal seating where one can view TV or on going matches.<br/><br/>The food is quite tasty with a lot of variety. But is again not something out of the world. But for the price it charges, it is really good.<br/><br/>In essence, I would say this is an above average restaurant with a great view which is very well priced for what it offers. It is not however a must go place. It is more for a group of friends having decent cash to sit, relax, chill and hangout.<br/><br/>Ambience 4/5<br/>Location 4.5/5<br/>Food Taste 4/5<br/>Food Variety (within the given cuisine) 4/5<br/>Presentation 4/5<br/>Order Time 4/5<br/>Pricing (relative to the ambience, location and food taste) 4/5<br/>Hygiene 5/5

Situated at the Mouth of Rua de Querem creek this urban joint is hard to miss. Nice cozy space with AC and Non Ac preference. perfect place to hangout with friends and to chill your perfect night. They have a corridor seating for two so you can just sip a beer while you enjoy the company. Serves variety of cuisines and have lot many dishes to offer. They even provide hukka which is hard to find in restros in Panaji. A must try restaurant.<br/><br/>Ratings - Service - 3.5/5 Food - 4/5 Ambiance - 4/5

We stopped by here on our way to North Goa from the South. The place is wonderfully set beside a river...well its more like a canal! The seating was wonderful and very relaxed. They also had board games and a guitar which they let customers use. We had chilli dry pork and wood fired pizza. The food was pretty good. If I go back to Goa, I will definitely head back for a romantic evening.

We went to this place reading reviews, thought it was good. But place the is over hyped. Food is ok. Waiters are confused serving main course first and then starters, when reminded they keep the food covered as in the pic. They took 45 mins to serve starter itself. <br/>Another minus part is the live music. It's too loud and boring. So loud that you can't hear what your waiter is saying... <br/>Not for family with kids. <br/>

Good food: Goan Fish Curry Rice, Xacutti, Kalamiri & Beef Steak must try. Good cocktails also. LIT was not well made. But amazing ambience..

Goa is an awesome place to be for food and drink lovers and you find both the things at one place most of the time.<br/><br/>River front is beautifully located at Panjim on the river Rua De Qurem overlooking yellow Patto river bridge. You can spend hours and hours sitting on the river side in the cafe as they have an alley of seats aligned in the balcony. <br/><br/>The food is good to have, though I had reached here post lunch timing but was able to cherish Chicken Steak with Kings Beer and view to take a feel of. The music was good.<br/><br/>Over all the place is good to visit.

Excellent ambience, options of seating (open balcony, indoor, a.c.), wide variety of cuisines, distinct tastes... 😊 reasonable prices<br/>+<br/>Live sports

Sesame chicken on toast is something different and worth giving a try. Woodfire pizzas are one of the best. Excellent service. Sit in the balcony to get a beautiful view of the old patto bridge.

A great place with a great view of the old Patto bridge. Can do better with finger foods. Good friendly staff. Just above Down the road but a quieter and chiller place to relax.<br/>Loved it.

Perfect place for a date by the river! Take a table outside preferably. They normally have live music. Decent burgers and wooden oven pizzas. The beef steak was really nice!

Many get confused with the downtown road which is on the ground floor. Just an average place around the city. The only plus point is that it serves hooka. Poor service and just average food.

Beautiful place overlooking rua de ourem creek to hangout with friends, family. One of their best dishes include lemon butter garlic chicken. Great place to hangout during screening of matches.

Great Place to be when you want to relax and chill out over a long time with choice of drinks and snacks ... They have a wide range of cuisine options for all types of diners... Some things to definitely Try out there are Spicy Bbq chicken pizza..chicken on sesame toast...chicken mongolian<br/>Been there a several times... Overall a great experience

Visited this place in hot summer noon & was delighted with the cool breeze coming from river.<br/>My rating's are<br/>4* for food.<br/>4* for service.<br/>4* for liquor.<br/>5* for ambience.

This place has a very nice ambiance...<br/>Great deserts..

Decent place, food was pretty good and reasonably priced.<br/>They have an Ocassional musician performing there, while he's music was fantastic it's was way too loud for a restaurant of that size, killed the mood and destroyed the ambiance<br/>If not for the defeating music I'd give it a 4/5<br/>All in all, decent place better food

Elegantly situated facing the river side. The setting is brilliant. I suggest visiting the place around evening and staying till the sundown. Apart from the great tasting food they also serve excellent music. I was witness to Bryan Adams unplugged and The Eagles unplugged.<br/>I had chicken handi, dal takda, kheema naan, butter naan and chilli chicken noodles.

Heard a lot about this place and decided to try it this time in Goa. The place seems nice. <br/><br/>Ordered the batter fried chicken. It looked and tasted like the one I would have gotten at a beachside shack for less than half the 330 rupees I paid for it. <br/><br/>The mayonnaise they served with it was stale (I hope I don't get an upset stomach) and it took them 20 mins to replace it. Even though the chicken was tender, it (and the rest of everything on the plate) was poorly seasoned. The only thing that I managed to finish on my plate were the fries (after I had to season them with salt and pepper ofcourse) and the batter on the chicken was almost burnt and dark brown which made it hard to eat. The only consolation offered to me was a snarky "please don't mind sir" from my server. <br/><br/>I'm off to find real dinner. Eat here at your own risk.

Ambience: Located at one of the most beautiful streets in Panjim, Rua De Ourem. The restaurant overlooks the backwaters of the Mandovi. As the restaurant falls in the Latin Quarter of  Panjim, Fontainhas, you are surrounded by the old world charm of Portuguese Goa. <br/><br/>Food: Had tried the Crumb Fried Chicken stuffed with Rosemary and Cheese, which was a little sweet but the chicken was very tender and juicy. <br/><br/>Price: Given that its an upscale restaurant, the prices are deemed to be on the higher side.<br/><br/>Overall: Pretty decent place for that perfect romantic date or for a classy dinner with friends. Do try and get a table in the verandah.

Pathetic service. They cannot handle guests the starters are served after the main course. Horrible food , please avoid visiting the place. Bad experience

Beautiful place for food, conversation, date, drinks. Overlooks the panjim creek and in a heritage house. This was the house where ashiqui 2 shot in Goa. that aside now. they serve most cuisine but pizzas are good. I d suggest visiting around sunset. the seating in the verandah is brilliant. bucket seats.. they have 5 TVs telecast most sport and good sound.. post getting drunk here go below to DTR. and that is the rule. If you are a single traveler surely u ll find some cool people giving some nice travel tips here.

Just been here. On a small riverside. Excellent ambience and food. The traffic below may get a little noisy though. Reminds me of the ole Goa days. They have an good eastern menu. Good service.
