"Dropped by LU RiverFarm Seafood Restaurant and seated at the floating huts along the river. You can see the Tilapia and they have golden colored. Ate the garlic buttered prawns, paksiw pampano and mixed grilled. Yummy food under the summer heat and only the electric fan will cool you down."

"Nipa huts floating & bamboo everywhere, view of the river never ceases to amaze me. Food is tasty & really fresh even without sauce/dips, affordable & friendly staff. Highly recommended, though i was hoping to see tempura on the menu in the future."

"Dinner Delight at LU Riverfarm Seafood Restaurant I recently had an early dinner at LU Riverfarm Seafood Restaurant in Bacnotan, and it was a delightful experience! Opting for one of their set menus, I was treated to a fantastic spread of fresh seafood and grilled meats. The star of the show was definitely the seafood. The grilled tilapia and bangus (milkfish) were cooked to perfection, with a beautiful char on the outside and perfectly flaky flesh inside. The deep-fried calamari tempura was another winner - crispy on the exterior and tender on the inside. The grilled pork chop rounded out the set menu nicely, offering a savory option for meat lovers. The ambiance of the restaurant itself was a big plus. The rustic Filipino décor created a cozy and inviting atmosphere, and the riverside location added a touch of serenity. The gentle flow of the river provided a calming backdrop to the meal. Overall, I highly recommend LU Riverfarm Seafood Restaurant to anyone visiting Bacnotan. The fresh seafood, delicious grilled options, and charming riverside setting make it a must-try! Here's a quick breakdown of the highlights: Fresh Seafood: The grilled fish and calamari were cooked perfectly, showcasing the quality of the ingredients. Set Menu: A convenient option offering a variety of dishes at a good value. Rustic Ambiance: The Filipino décor and riverside location created a relaxing atmosphere. If you're looking for a delicious and scenic dining experience in Bacnotan, look no further than LU Riverfarm Seafood Restaurant!"

"Friendly and attentive staffs, typical local Filipino seafood food fare. Great dining environment next to the river with views of Golden Tilapia fingerlings and other fishes. Good for bigger groups. Gets bit busy during lunch time where people flocks in."

"Review update: Unfortunately the service, food and availability of seafood is declining in the past few months. You can call yourself lucky if all dishes on the menu are available, but the most shocking was that they ran out of Tilapia even with big fish ponds on the premises. The quality of the dishes depending on the cook, the dish tastes different at any given visit in the past, until to a degree that we couldn’t eat the dishes because it was totally over salted. Service is slow and partially unfriendly. We have to reduce our rating according the experience of the last 3 month from 4 to ONLY 2. Initial Review: Hidden place on the river, relaxing and quiet. Friendly staff, fresh seafood right from the pond. All the time we come here we order Kilawing, they prepare it like we want it, spicy with calamansi. If they would only add some coriander. The shrimp with ampalya are great, so are the calamaris. Unfortunately only 1 CR directly next to the kitchen"

"Food was really good. I recommend the fried Bangus, fish. And if American the fried chicken. It was hot so be sure to order the fresh coconut juice after your done drinking they cut it open so you can eat it. Amazing view of the river/water extra table charge if you want to eat on top of the water."

"Our visit to River Farm in La Union was enjoyable, thanks to its tranquil riverside setting and warm, accommodating staff. The food was fresh and flavorful, though it is priced on the higher side, and the waiting time was slightly longer than expected. Nonetheless, it’s a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy a peaceful meal by the river."
