Food was delicious, beautifully presented, courses spaced appropriately. Drinks were excellent. Our waitress Bridgett was top notch and really went out of her way to make our night special. Back River Bistro is definitely a top tier hidden gem in the area. Perfect for a romantic date night or small group dinner. Dimmed lightening but not super dark, candle lit tables, linen cloths. We will definitely be coming back! 10/10 would recommend.
Our party of 4 arrived very early due to a change in plans, thinking we'd replace dinner with a drink and an app (having had lunch only a few hours earlier). Our greeter - and server - Bess couldn't have been more accommodating with our early arrival or desire for a very leisurely visit. After lingering over cocktails and seeing the menu, we were all able to rationalize ordering entrees. That proved to be a wise choice, as our dinners were all delicious. Bess advised...
What an amazing find!!! We had a lovely dinner this evening at Back River Bistro. We started with the focaccia, calamari, & tomato panzanella. For mains we had the pork ragu pasta & monkfish which were both perfectly cooked & seasoned. Dessert was blueberry ice cream & the toffee pudding. Lovely atmosphere, fabulous service, & amazing food. Looking forward to our visit next year!!! Wish we lived closer 😣
