Retirement Party in Riverview Room

I recently held a retirement party for 70 people in the upstairs room of the Riverview Building. The view from the room is spectacular, though we ironically had the party on a very foggy night and couldn't see any of it! The food and service were excellent. The staff is so friendly and responsive to last minute requests. People raved about the tortellini appetizer, peppercorn steak, chicken francese, and stuffed sole. Everyone loved the New York cheesecake, too. Management is so responsive and willing to work with you. They make throwing a party almost effortless. I consider this venue to be a great value at the Jersey Shore. I highly recommend it everyone. lt made for a night I will always treasure in my memory.

Scholarship Dinner

Everything about the service at the Waterview Pavilion is top rate. The wait staff is very professional and quite while serving. We had extra people attend our event at the last minute and they made accommodations for them with no problems. Susan and Janine are great to work with and will meet all of your requests.

Excellent venue for a very important Tribute to a 45 Year Career serving the public. The WATERVIEW PAVILION was excellent.

All areas of event were wonderful. Staff was extremely helpful and accommodating. Even as guests were added on! Food was excellent quality and quantity.

Perfect Party Venue

Excellent food, professional staff, this venue was perfect for the coed baby shower I threw for my brother and sister-in-law! The guests are still raving about how much fun they had! The view of the marina is beautiful and the entire atmosphere made it an unforgettable day for me and my family.
