    Another lovely experience at the Riverbank Bistro. Sunday night was quieter than usual, but there was still a good number of people in the restaurant. In spite of this, it was quiet and we had a lovely meal experience. Our server Amanda was pleasant, friendly and attentive. We just had the entrée. But oh boy! What a meal! See picture and description. Probably the best steak and fries I’ve ever had! We met the chef Adele. This woman is going places!

    Classic white table cloth dining! We enjoyed SLOW ROASTED PORK BELLY Miso squash puree, shaved brussel sprout salad, apple chutney which was unbelievable! And for main PAN ROASTED DUCK BREAST Honey and orange glazed, crispy fried brussel sprouts, cranberry vinaigrette, caramelized fennel puree. Any dessert is perfect we all sampled a variety! My favorite was the key lime pie.

    We brought an out of town guest to dinner and we were not disappointed. We appreciated the Snowbirds dinner which perfect proportions for us, with appetizers and entrees. The service was excellent as was the food.
