The River Café, an Iconic Italian waterfront restaurant in London since 1987 with one Michelin star. The food was delicious . The sea-bass was fresh and the ravioli was really tasty. Unfortunately, we could not try other types of pasta because they were soaked in alcohol. The setting is casual and the ambiance is buzzy.
