Rustic River Restaurant offers excellent food with a rustic river view, perfect for families and those with pets. The ribeye steak is cooked to perfection, and the espresso martini is delicious. The hamburger and fries have received praise as possibly the best ever tasted, and the brownie is baked perfectly. Under new management, the care for customers and quality of the food is evident. A laid-back country atmosphere with great music and a spacious interior makes it a place where guests can enjoy views of people kayaking in the river. The service is quick, and the fajita fries are an excellent appetizer.
The restaurant has received praise for its varied menu, including appetizers, salads, sandwiches, hamburgers, seafood platters, and delicious desserts. Customers have enjoyed the well-prepared meals, such as the Avocado salad and the fried shrimp platter, as well as the full bar with well-made and large-portioned drinks. The restaurant is also dog-friendly, with seating available on the back porch overlooking the calm Powell River.
While one customer experienced an issue with the onion rings, the restaurant's staff was accommodating and removed the unsatisfactory item. Overall, the Rustic River Restaurant is a place that many look forward to returning to again, thanks to its excellent food, great service, and beautiful setting.
