| Value: |  | Service: |  | Food: | | | Ambiance: | | | | Well worth the money | | By Guest on 6/16/2008 | | I would truly go back again and again. I found the food to be wonderful. Well worth the money. I thinking about my grouper with crabmeat and white sauce, really great. | |
| Value: | | Service: | | Food: | | | Ambiance: | | | | By Bill on 6/16/2008 | | We thoughly enjoyed our meal here. The service was excellent and we found the decor nice as well. We will definitely go back there the next time we visit wonderful Swansboro! | |
| Value: |  | Service: | | Food: | | | Ambiance: | | Wine List: | | | | Very Disappointed. | | By Jonathan on 5/28/2008 | | With gas on the rise I decided to stay close this Memorial Day weekend. So I took the family to the Crystal Coast and we decided to try out the Riverside (which is across the street from the river and has ZERO view of it) when we drove up I thought the outside looked like an old home but thought it might be quaint and warm inside. Well my wife almost broke her neck navigating the rough gravel parking lot in high heels at night. This should have been are cue to leave but we had two kids hungry and already had reservations. The inside is old and not welcoming, the floors need to be refinished and our table wobbled. We tried the crab dip app which was good. Problem is the dip was the only thing at all that came out cooked correctly. I wasn't impressed with the muffin which came with my salad, it tasted more like a desert not something you eat before a meal. The steaks were extremely small and I would be shocked if it was the advertised 10oz. My wife got a crab claw pasta special which was a disgusting mess. Kids had some fried stuff which was probably the best thing that hit the table. I wouldn't recommend this place. I wish I had found this site first. | |

I do have a couple more things to add: I had a ''special'' which according to my waitress never change and the owner is too cheap to add them to the menu, anyway the filet's are so small you can finish it in a couple bites. I did not have the same luck with service my waitress was a bit of a mess and talked way too much about herself. I believe her name was Tanya. I won't bore readers by repeating what was already written so I will just say read Amanda and James' reviews. | |
| 2 of 2 people found this review helpful: | | Value: | | Service: | | Food: | | | Ambiance: | | Wine List: | | | | Not as advertised | | By Amanada on 3/11/2008 | | First timt in my life I loved or hated a place enouh to go online and write a review and I hated it. Don't know what the others found at this house with rotting floors but I found a horible crab claw pasta special and my husband got a $30 petite filet with white sauce and canned crab meat. I won't go back. If you chose this place expect around $100 tab for two at a place no better than Chili's. I undersand the area doesn't have much selection but this is no better and carries a big price. The decor is AWFUL. Tables are old and beat up with chips and missing boards. Cusions are ripped and look like they came from the 80s. We did grab a drink upstairs in the lounge, it was cute and the drinks were resonably priced. | |

I was seated along with my wife near the kitchen. I saw a very unkept dirty looking man dressed like a gothic bum bring muffins out to a warmer. I couldn't keep up with the million specials and the food was overpriced. The manager came over and asked how everything was when I politely told him of our complaints he got defensive and questioned my dining experience, then left my table. I think he was high. Weird place, not my style. Maybe yours? | |

I just found this place and I'm so glad I did, eveyrhting was PERFECT. We were seated immediately and had excellent service (I'm so sorry I don't remember the waitress's name!). She listed every special (about 20!) from memory and was helpful when we asked for a recommendation. Try their house salad with their special bacon dressing, it's divine. Definitely order a few baskets of the sweet potato muffins to take home! Try the Maryland crabcake dinner or the Salmon Oscar, both are delicious. In my two weeks vacationing in NC, I ate here 6 times. | |

While taking a walk on the beach we entered into a conversation with a couple walking their dog and said the Riverside is the place to go for dinner and Clare as the best server. So we took our family and asked for Clare. She was an amazingly attentive young woman who kept us laughing. She listed off 20 specials from memory and made recommendations which we took. The Oyster Rockefeller should be a menu item not a special, it was amazing! We will be back every time we visit the coast. Only complaint was the temperature in the dining room - it was probably 75 to 80 degrees. But if that is the price to pay to eat that well, I don't mind. | |

The food is always excellent. John and his staff are great. You have to try the clam chowder, very rich and creamy. The sweet potato muffins are to die for. Mahi mahi or grouper fingers are delicous. The mixed drinks they serve are the best I've tasted in the area. The meals are a LITTLE pricey but well worth it. | |
