"Do you have a high school formal or wedding guest outfit that you want to wear again? Wear it to The River Cafe, a retro Dumbo restaurant that deals in proposals, prom dates, big deal birthdays, and other occasions that warrant dressy looks. The food here is '90s tweezer style, but overall it’s pretty good, and you get an unparalleled view of the Manhattan skyline from the dining room. " - Carina Finn Koeppicus, Kenny Yang, Neha Talreja, Matt Tervooren
