I really believe this is the most delicious meal I've EVER had!!! Since they are still rebuilding from a fire, it was a little awkward to know where to place or pick up our order, but it was definitely worth that inconvenience when I got my take-out order.

I've sent them an email asking if they are open for business since the fire but I've received no response. I'm looking a nice place to take my wife but can't get an answer back from this place.

I really really want to like this place. We ate at the River Front twice before the kitchen fire closed down the restaurant in the fall of 2012. It's the only up-scale restaurant option in Abbeville, other than the bar at Dupuy's. We love the location, view and decor, but both times had subpar experiences due to mediocre food and... More

We ate here with friends and all of us thought the food was great. I have eaten crabmeat au gratin at several places in the area and this was definitely the best I've had. The side dishes were fresh and very good. Nice setting on the river and very good service. We will definitely be back.

The food and drinks at Riverfront are truly superb. I especially enjoy the Eggplant Evangeline, which is pieces of fried eggplant covered with a crabmeat sauce. I also enjoy the Tropics on the Bayou frozen drink. You can also sit outside and watch the Vermilion River and its traffic.
