Today was my second time enjoying brunch at Riverbank Bistro. When I came in November 2021, I was really looking forward to trying their wild-berry waffles, but was told they were sold out, even though I arrived an hour after they had opened for the day. Today, I finally got to order my waffles and they were phenomenal! They had a delightful crunchy sugar coating and were topped with blueberries and cherries in syrup, as well as two generous scoops of whipped cream. My boyfriend had the R.B. breakfast bowl with a side of lamb sausage. The flavours in the breakfast bowl were wonderful together - salty, tangy, with a hint of sweetness. We were really satisfied with the food at Riverbank Bistro.
Great place Great food. It's our first time to dine here.the ambience is nice and quiet, And the food, of course, taste good. I will recommend Riverbank Bistro to my friends. Don't be fooled by the name , this is not a Bistro, this is like a fine dining restaurant in the neighborhood. It's a gem.
An anniversary to be remembered with a true culinary experience. The duck breast was cooked perfectly, flavourful, moist with crispy skin. The roasted cauliflower was lightly seasoned, alongside reduced sweet but savoury cherries. Put them all together: a perfect concoction of flavour. Eye rolling good. Compliments to the chef and the wonderful serve staff. See you again soon!
My bestfriend and I, plan and hoping to try this Restaurant once we got a chance. So I cannot say much except there features of food is tempting and tasty. I took a picture during our 70 minutes walk in the Sturgeon River trail. Which very satisfactory. Meeting a lot of friendly people. We hope to walk there again.
Everything was standard, there was nothing special about the food. We went there because it was rated 1 of the top 100 in all of Canada. The bison was tough. The pork was chewy. Everything was mediocre and probably won’t be going back. It was ok just trying it once. Service was good. Out of all the ones we tried, I liked the Carpaccio the most.
Very good in atmosphere. Good for anniversary or some celebration. Not good for eating full. Tasty and good quality but not much in quantity. It takes 40 to 60 per person in average.
We Had a delicious dinner here tonight to celebrate a couple of birthdays. Food was delicious. We had the avocado bruschetta to start and shared it with 4 people. There was lots of bruschetta but not enough baguette chips. The entrees were all very good but the best was the schnitzel! Tried all the desserts we loved them all! Thank you to Susan for taking care of us tonight. Great job! I only wished we would have been seated in the alcove as I requested when I reserved.
Made a reservation for my husbands birthday for yesterday evening, made details in the reservations that was not even talked about when the waitress got to the table but other than that, the food was lovely! Service was amazing other then the little hiccup. Atmosphere was decent, I feel a few changes could make it feel a lot more upscale for the price of the food. We got the pork belly to start, very good flavour and delicious. Then we got the duck breast and the short rib. The duck breast had a significant amount of slaw with no carb source which was not what we expected but the short rib was phenomenal. I don’t think I will be back to this restaurant but it was a nice night out to try somewhere new!
Came here for the first time to celebrate my birthday. If I could give half a star I'd give 3.5, but wouldn't round up to 4. The service was friendly and prompt. The little things we take for granted were all there water refilled, cutlery changed between courses, checked in on what we thought of the food. The food was good but not great. We shared bites of each other's dishes but I'll focus this review on my own dishes and my wife's entree. Started with the Beef Short Rib Gnocchi. The gnocchi is Parisien style which is why I ordered it. It was light and mostly fluffy. The short rib was super tender and the gorgonzola cream sauce tied the dish together well. It's a very rich dish and was wanting something acidic for relief. Overall a great dish. For entrees we had the Citrus Glazed Duck and Bison Steak Frites. The duck was a disappointment. It had way too much cabbage which was put right on top of a tasty parsnip puree, which was a shame. The duck was slightly over cooked still okay but the signature crispy skin that you crave for with a duck dish was nowhere to be found. I usually love bison. I didn't love this one. It was cooked to perfection mid-rare, but the cut used left it a little too chewy for my liking. The fries and aioli were superb! For dessert we had the key lime pie. The coconut crust sounded much better than it turned out to be. It left the crust a little too soft and I missed that crunchy texture to contrast the soft creaminess of the key lime filling which was tasty. Overall, an enjoyable but not memorable meal.
Don’t let the name fool you, this is no bistro, it’s some fine dining! The beef short ribs were fall off the bone good! We also had the daily special duck confit and it was amazing! Definitely will go back.
