Reviews


Overall, the restaurant received mixed reviews. Some diners were disappointed with the slow and inattentive service, with one reviewer even stating it was the worst experience they've ever had at a restaurant. Others praised the food quality, particularly highlighting the brussels sprouts, lobster roll, and cocktails. The ambiance and view of the river were also positively mentioned. However, there were concerns raised about the pricing being on the higher side compared to other similar restaurants, and the need for improvement in service efficiency and staff training. Despite the varied feedback, it seems that the overall dining experience at River Crab depends on factors such as the time of visit, service staff on duty, and personal preferences towards food quality and pricing, generally, Riva Crabhouse on Navy Pier receives a rating of 4.1 on average.
