    There was a problem with the food order. We waited for at least an hour before we got food. All of the tables that arrived after we did were served before us. Our elderly parents found the wait exhausting.
    Riverbank BistroResponded today
    Dear Lynn, we appreciate your input and value the chance to enhance our service. We are also grateful that you took the time to bring this to our attention, as we are always striving to make the Riverbank Bistro an exceptional place to visit. This cannot happen without feedback from our beloved guests. We have addressed the issue with our front of house/back of house team, in hopes that in the future this situation could be remedied or altogether prevented. Thank you again and take care.

    We’ve been coming to the Riverbank for over 11 years and will definitely keep coming back. Excellent food & friendly and cheerful service. A small glitch with the delay in receiving our dessert but it was acknowledged, apologized for & we were compensated for it before we even had a chance to express our disappointment. Special thanks to Amanda.
