From the reviews

Upscale yet casual restaurant on the river walk with some really excellent food and very friendly and attentive service. It was a Friday night (early June) and we did not have a reservation (granted it was an early 6pm dinner for us) and we were able to get a table outside on the patio with a beautiful view of the…

We arrived before our reserved time and were seated right away. We had our choice of seating and chose a river view table. Our server suggested entres which were great choices for us. We enjoyed everything. Looking forward to our next visit.

Getting married at Riverwalk Restaurant

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
