Don't waste your time or money. Prime rib was almost rancid. Vegetables were cold and unappealing. Awful experience.

Does NOT have an oyster bar as advertised...very disappointed..

If I could leave no stars I would. Overly priced for processed and frozen food. The hostess had a poor attitude and there was no proof of the reservation I made a week and a half ago. I regret suggesting White Oak River Bistro for a much needed girls night, very disappointing.

Outstanding. Quality ingredients well served. Amazing ambiance - and if you catch the full moon rise over the White Oak - a little lagniappe you'll never forget. Thanks Jackie for a wonderful evening!

My best friend and her husband went with my husband and I for a Christmas dinner. The next morning, my husband and best friend were both very sick. Service was eh, ok.

Visiting our son and daughter-in-law in Swansboro and made reservations for New Years Eve dinner. Did not disappoint. We shared several appetizers and wine before dinner and then each chose a different dish and we were all happy with our choices. We will return!

My wife and I shared another great time at the Bistro. During this time of uncertainty, Denise and Gene made our time together a great dining experience. We enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the view of the White Oak River and great conversation. The lunch menu is very selective and great prices. We so love the homemade bread.! Whether you are traveling by boat or just visiting area shops, you do not want to miss this gem on the White Oak.

Oysters Rockefeller was not good. The calamari salad was great, thank goodness. Too pricey.

Jackie was an astonishing waitress!! Recommend the best dishes and gave outstanding service! We celebrated our 15 year anniversary this evening and it couldn't have gone any better!!! Make this your next date night and ask for Jackie!! You will not be disappointed?
Great food and even better service and people! Will be adding this to our rotation!

Delicious food in a truly beautiful setting. Friendly staff, great service. Enjoy perfectly prepared food on the back deck overlooking the river. You must try this restaurant; you will definitely go again.

Have eaten at Oak River Bistro previously for an appetizer lunch. It was very good and unique. Unfortunately we ate dinner there tonight. We were very disappointed. Marinara sauce was little more than poorly spiced canned diced tomatoes. Flounder Florentine with basil cream sauce lacked basil and cream with watery spinach and flavorless flounder. The saving grace for the lasagna was the sausage that added flavor to the marinara, however the portion should have been more generous. The pasta with sausage in marinara was again disappointing because of the previously mentioned marinara.
