About This Place

Nestled right on the water at 74 S Main St in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, River Falls is a distinguished American restaurant that effortlessly blends the charm of a cozy waterfront spot with a menu that celebrates the best of pub and seafood fare. From the moment you arrive, the inviting atmosphere—with its beautiful outdoor seating overlooking serene river views—sets the perfect tone for a memorable dining experience.

The menu at River Falls is thoughtfully curated, offering something for every palate, yet spotlighting classic American favorites alongside fresh, ocean-inspired dishes. Signature plates like the crispy, golden Fish & Chips boast a satisfying crunch and tender fish inside, paired perfectly with traditional tartar sauce. For a taste of the sea’s bounty, the Fisherman’s Platter and Seafood Platter showcase an irresistible medley of shrimp, clams, and calamari, cooked to perfection with just the right balance of seasoning and freshness.

One cannot miss the house specialties such as the Fish Reuben—a creative twist on the classic sandwich featuring beer-battered fish, homemade coleslaw, Swiss cheese, and 1000 island dressing all nestled on sourdough bread, served alongside crispy French fries. Spicy and savory, the Buffalo Chicken Dip makes for a standout starter, dripping with melted cheddar and a hint of scallions, served with crunchy tortilla chips that invite endless dipping. The Bourbon Cheddar Sandwich captures a mouthwatering harmony of grilled chicken, bourbon glaze, caramelized onions, and sharp cheddar on a telera roll, making for a rich, flavorful handheld delight.

Beyond the hearty entrees, River Falls delivers on variety with selections from Chicken Parmigiana to the refreshing Chicken Caprese, alongside sides like creamy mashed potatoes, butternut squash, and indulgent sweet potato fries. Their Mojitos and Margaritas are perfectly crafted to complement the food and enhance the overall dining satisfaction.

    Found this gem after a show at the Stadium Theater. The menu got my attention, when we got there, we found this beautiful place on the water with outside seating and a great view. Jacqueline was out server and she greeted our table with water, which was much needed. She really made the experience that much better. Attentive and on point with everything. Bartender made great drinks and the food... The food was delish chef.. really was. We are coming back there soon because the atmosphere was splendid. Great times... Great eats... Great service.

    Been here many times. They offer a good blend of pub grub and pasta dishes. They offer a respectable amount of gluten-free options including buns for various handheld and pasta. They have a good kids menu as well.

    The chili salmon is really tasty with the mango salsa over the risotto (which is nicely creamy). The steak salad is delicious with generous and tender pieces of steak. The building and scenery are nice, great location. And, Jennifer is an excellent waitress!

    Live music on the weekends was fun, but if you’re sitting too close then it’s way too loud. Our calamari was amazing. The rest of the food was good. Service was a little slow because of how busy it was, but that’s to be expected on a Friday night.

    I used to live in the area and had been going to River Falls for years. The place used to be good and then changed hands and turned out not so great. I’m happy to report that they’re back to be being in the great category. The last few times I’ve been in there everything has been perfect. The waitstaff are friendly, the food comes out quickly, and the quality is consistently good. They still have their weekly deals and even have trivia nights and a full bar. Parking in the area is easy and I’ve never had to wait for a table. The last time I went I had the salmon BLT which tasted fresh and had a huge portion of fish. My dad had the fish and chips which were also great- I love their tartar sauce. Also good is their seafood pasta, meatloaf, etc. If you haven’t been to River Falls in a while I highly recommend trying again- it’s definitely back on the up and up!
