It's the age-old question: Out-of-town visitors -- where should you take them for a bit of local flavor? Put Riverview Revolving Restaurant at the top of your list. Perched atop the Covington Radisson, the Tri-state's only revolving eatery has served generations of families celebrating special occasions. And yes, it's also seen its share of in-laws, regional managers and other out-of-towners whom locals wanted to impress. The 18th-floor panoramic view is simply stunning. Clubby, elegant decor and an upscale menu match the formality that a special-occasion spot demands. (You will, however, see more casually dressed folks here as well.) Feast on roasted lamb chops, filet mignon or seafood pasta selections, all while savoring that skyline. Don't want to spend the dough? Stop in before or after dinner for a drink at the inviting bar -- you'll still get the impressive view, but on the cheap. It's enough to make your head, er, spin.

Horrible
By Rybread024 on 07/02/2008
I went there this past year with a group of friends before prom. There was ten of us there, and nobodys food was right. the steaks were over cooked and tough and the portions were horribly small for the price. I paid for mine and my dates dinner and it was over a hundred dollars! we each only had a steak dinner and a soda. No appitizers or anything. You are paying for the view. it is not worth the money. Service was slow and the food tasted horrible. I will never go to there again. The worst place to eat. If you want a view go up in a building downtown. It will save ya $100.

I was there the first week of June this year ... the service was wonderful, food was great with large portions considering the price, the view is breath taking ... it was my boyfriends first time visiting in his 44 years here ... he was very impressed and we will be returning soon ...

Great Place for Special Events
By Suzal872 on 06/20/2008
We thoroughly enjoy the revolving restaurant for our "special" events. You can't beat the view and the food has always been a good value. We had our daughter's wedding there in 2005 and everything went perfectly-----could not have asked for more attention or professionalism. A great place to celebrate those "special events" in your life. We will definitely return there......
