About this Neighborhood

River South leans cultural: 35 restaurants and five coffee shops set against 13 parks, a theater, a science museum, and the art galleries that top Foursquare's local tastes. The Yelp crowd has logged more than 3,300 reviews at an impressive 4.8, a sign the food more than holds its own beside the culture. Pistacia Vera turns out the marquee pastries, Warios Beef and Pork covers the hearty end, and The Roosevelt Coffeehouse anchors the morning ritual. With scenic lookouts and four fitness studios in reach, the district pairs a riverfront setting with a genuine appetite for the arts.
