    I enjoyed visiting here for a few drinks and the appetizer walleye and wild rice cakes. I enjoyed my Tuscan pear drink but my boyfriend Manhattan had too much syrup in it so we said something. It was mentioned that the bitters had been forgotten. The walleye cakes were delicious and the tartar sauce ontop appeared and tasted homemade! The view was amazing. Our server made me feel rushed, but then I figured out why. The server was ending our shift and we ended up getting a new server.

    The ambiance is a 10 with a great view of the water and the lift bridge. The menu is pretty small. They have sandwiches, but they are open faced and they only come with a salad. We didn't see a side of fries on the menu. The prices are high, seemingly paying for scenery not the taste of the food or the service. It's a great place if you don't have time constraints and want to linger in the space. The service was pretty slow and they weren't short on servers.

    Came for the view and drinks. Relaxed and scenic setting overlooking the river and bridge. Great service and drinks!

    Excellent. I do not know what's up with the reviews but my wife and I had a very pleasant waitress and an excellent Margherita flatbread. It was good enough to return for drinks and appetizers with friends later that evening. We orders the steak fries and they are highly recommended. Also, this place has the best view of the river front.

    You can see forever from this roof-top patio.

    What a beautiful fall day today in October around 3:30 pm on a Thursday... Your sandwich board sidewalk signs we viewed today in Stillwater brought my adult daughter and I in to the Water Street Inn and to right to your rooftop patio restaurant. Exactly what we were looking for! Christa was super friendly and positive even though we could tell she was a bit stressed and the restaurant was getting pretty slammed on such a beautiful day. We had no problem waiting a bit here and there but over all a wonderful tasty experience. Totally Loved the Carbonera. I would absolutely go back just for this. Not super over the top flavor or spice- just smooth and silky all the way. It appears Charlies Restaurant and Irish Pub on the main floor in the Hotel is both inside and outside and might possibly be an ok option for when the weather turns and the rooftop is closed.

    The meatballs were small and hard the red sauce was average. Not as described. The goat dip was good. Creamy and cheesy. The chicken Alfredo has chewy chicken pieces and wasn't very Alfredoy. The view was great and we turned on a fireplace. We had the best hostess and server! They deserve 5 stars

    Our full order at the end

    It was our first time coming to Stillwater and this restaurant, originally, we were going to go to Marx but it was full. While looking around for another Italian restaurant we drove towards the sound of ABBA and water and found Papa's Rooftop. We thought it would be perfect, we love ABBA and water. Especially with our coming out of state. We were seated pretty quickly, but not served or even noticed for 20 minutes. We had to get the attention of staff to even get our menus and drinks. It took about another 15ish minute to even order. The food was okay, not enough flavor. The goat cheese dip was probably the best. But the linguine was watery and bland. And worst of all, the pizza looks like someone took a slice out before serving (which was even more apparent when organizing the slices prior to eating) *pictured. In summary, although the setting and ambiance were beautiful, the service and food were not worth it.

    The view is the value. Food and drinks are average at best. Would never go back to this place.

    Pretty small menu but the few items they offer are pretty good. Nice views and nice aesthetic once the sun went down.

    Service was great the whole time we were there, prompt, smiles and kept checking on us…read more We went for just apps to give the place a try. The menu looked fun, on line. When we arrived we were seated quickly at a nice table in a themed Italian space. We had the Calamari, an the Escargot. And finished with a piece of their homemade Tiramisu. All were very tasty: Calamari was a crispy, well flavored rings (darn I like the little squid) with a good sauce. The Escargot were plump and the garlic butter they came with was delicious, used the bread (very nice Baguette) to sop it up an hold an Escargot! A finished with the Tiramisu which was everything a good homemade desert should be ! The only suggestion would be to up the presentation on the plate of both of the dish's; the calamari and the escargot But had nothing to do with taste, which was excellent.

    We wanted to try Giovanni's since it opened, and finally had a chance to head over with the family…read more The service was very good. The waiter and bus staff were great at getting our requests and being prompt with everything. The food was great & good. All of the food was served fresh and hot as it should be. They have a great house Chianti that is reasonably priced by the bottle. The filet special was out of this world awesome. Cooked perfectly medium rare, the cut was top shelf and flavor was incredible. The whole dish was excellent with the mushroom red wine reduction on top providing that blast of flavors that complemented a filet. I may get this every time if they continue to have it on the menu. The fettuccine alfredo was good. The pasta was home-made and cooked perfectly. The sauce was a bit bland and was missing something. Maybe some more parmesan, maybe just salt, not sure but while it was good, it lacked the big creamy flavor that alfredo should have. Chicken was very good, grilled and tender. So this one was "Good" The seafood special was another "Good" one. The shirimp was done perfectly but the rest of the seafood was maybe just a touch overcooked. The sauce was a cream sauce but like the alfredo it lacked just a bit of flavor that would have made it a superb meal. Many guests will love that we have a very good Italian place again in North Hudson as it's part of the heritage of the community. We will go back for sure!! CM
