The one thing that can take a meal from good to great is the view. Luckily, RiverFront Restaurant in Louisiana has both: an incredible menu with incredible views. Open seven days a week, this is one scenic restaurant that you'll want to return to again and again, just soaking up those mesmerizing views (and mouthwateringly good food).
One of Abbeville's most beloved restaurants, RiverFront, has been a local favorite ever since it opened in 1997.
Between floods and fires, resilient doesn't even begin to describe this place. When a fire destroyed the original building in 2012, they rebuilt the new location where it is today, about a mile up the road from its original home. Then, in 2016 the restaurant suffered some serious flood damage. Each time, the restaurant has come back stronger than ever. Louisianians know what it takes to rebuild, that's for sure.
Overlooking the beautiful Vermilion River, RiverFront offers some of the most scenic dining experiences in Cajun Country.
Whether you're just meeting up with friends for drinks or enjoying a celebratory meal with loved ones, RiverFront is just the spot.
It's also a beautiful spot for private events, including reunions, weddings, and more.
The menu features a wide range of Cajun classics with a unique twist.
From Cajun nachos to shrimp and grits, the seafood selection here is unparalleled.
But you may be tempted to treat yourself to one of the signature steaks that RiverFront is known for.
Whether you fall on the seafood side or the steak side, just be sure to leave room for dessert.
The sinfully delicious sweets made here are the perfect ending to a beautiful meal. Always something new, be sure to ask your server what desserts are on the menu when you visit.
After your meal, take a stroll down to the river and enjoy the sights and sounds of the water.
You may even catch a glimpse of an egret or a heron on the hunt for their own seafood dinner.
Visit RiverFront's website for a full menu and more information about private rentals and reservations. Did you know Abbeville is home to a massive omelet festival? If you've never seen what a 5,000-egg omelet looks like, you're in for a shock.
