The Kosi Deck

A very serene and picturesque place. Wide variety of menu and quite good service. The food was good. The restaurant is inside Riverview Retreat hotel and have to book in advance to enter inside same.

The Kosi Deck is the river-front restaurant of Riverview Retreat. It sits on a wide terrace, below flowering trees, overlooking the Kosi river. It's very scenic, and the cane furniture is stylish. The food here runs the gamut from Indian (including regional delicacies) to continental (sandwiches, soups, salads, burgers, pizzas, grills and so on) through to East Asian, middle eastern, and more. There are various hot and cold beverages (alcohol is available too) as well as some desserts. We tried some regional dishes (a Himachali malai mutton served with bhang ki chutney, walnut chutney and khameeri roti; and sorshe maachh), as well as some international small plates, with a chocolate brownie for dessert. The food was good, but it took almost half an hour for service, and a couple of side dishes mentioned in the menu were not provided. Service also was somewhat slipshod and erratic, and we were not warned that certain dishes would take a long time.

The atmosphere is quite good. Food is fine here, pocket friendly I would say. But the biggest issue is, service. Very unprofessional and delayed.

The staff is extremely rude and the restaurant is only for in house guests. You should avoid visiting it if you are not staying at the property.

This is a small deck cafe in Riverview Retreat Resort, Dhikuli. If you are staying in the hotel, finding a table here isn't a problem but if you are just visiting the cafe please book it in advance. This place will blow your mind, its beautiful. We had gone there around 7pm and we loved the vibe. The view is overlooking the forest and the Kosi river flowing through. Its so serene. Such a breathtaking view. They had such soothing music playing in the background which was just adding so much to the whole experience. The food was well prepared and tasty. This place is worth the money. Please visit this place and it will be the highlight of your trip. Kudos to the management and the staff of Riverview Retreat Resort, Dhikuli.

The place was extremely beautiful with great views. However, the experience got soured due to poor quality food with no taste whatsoever. They failed to provide how they described the items in the menu. Ex- Four cheese pizza had just mozarella, kejriwal toast mentioned that it came with chilli cheese toast, however normal toasted bread was given, pizzas were beyond horrible, 600 bucks noodles were like 50 rs thela chowmein. Capuccino was not capuccino but filter coffee. In the end staff were courteous and helpful to compensate us in some way, however, for the exorbitant prices charged for the dishes, the quality needs to improve by a big big margin.

I would not recommend going there, the atmosphere is really good but the service is equally bad. It took around an hour for them to get a simple red sauce arrabiata.

Dont come here. Only people who stay here (in River view Reort ) only they can Dine in this restaurant. I wasted my time coming here
