I highly recommend this venue. I recently assisted with a destination wedding at the Riverview Room. Upon arrival for the ceremony rehearsal, Skylar was extremely helpful, organized and personable. She put everyone at ease about the wedding and reception. She also offered some assets that we needed to complete the decor. The day of the wedding Skyler introduced us to her entire team who assisted us with setting up the decor and staging some props.

They went beyond their scope of work to make sure that everyone was ready for the wedding. Melinda who is the lead chef is professional, and loves what she does. The food was delicious and the servers were so incredibly gracious. The bride and groom were happy and their special day was perfect as they had planned! I would highly recommend this venue as the staff, service and location add to the ambiance and magic of New Orleans. Thanks Skyler and chef Malinda for making April 16, 2022 EPIC! With gratitude, Kimberly in Los Angeles.

Very Very Nice. Staff very attentive and the temperature comfortably even on the dance floor. Also the view of the city and river from the balcony is a plus. Look forward to returning on future events.

What a great venue for your events! Attended a wedding here that was put on perfectly by the staff. Initially it was an outdoor wedding on their rooftop patio that ended up coming indoors do to a change in the weather. They did a great job flipping the room for the transitions. It had easy access, but still maintained privacy.
