    a plate of food
    Lisa R.

    A good friend introduced me to this unique spot and I couldn't be happier! This is a really great bar/restaurant to go to if you appreciate exceptional food as well! The food here was impressive, when my friend asked me to meet her at the "bar" I wasn't expecting such phenomenal tasting food! I tried the chicken picatta and it's still on my mind. It had to be one of the best chicken picatta dishes I've had in a long time! My friend sent me home with some pizza she purchased, and that was delicious as well! If you're a seafood fan, you'll find plenty of options here too!! I look forward to coming here more regularly after work a s trying more things on the meni

    First time to this restaurant in Stratford. Where this place lacks in seating area, it makes up with its food. My husband and I had the fish and chips and it was delicious. This may be our go to during lent. Our waitress was very friendly

    On the recommendation of a friend we tried this place for our Friday food adventure! It was quite the drive for us but we're glad we tried this unique place on Ferry Blvd in Stratford. All covid precautions were taken including wiping down tables between visits and mark wearing. Our food was perfect , the fish was light and crispy (as a Brit I'm picky about that ;)) and the salmon was oven baked just right with a delicious cream sauce and sweet cherry tomato halves, and my request for double spinach instead of carbs was no problem at all. A mix up with our order was corrected graciously and we were surprised to be presented with a $15 gift card at checkout to apologize for the wait whilst it was fixed... and we hadn't even complained! The wings were crispy and perfectly seasoned ... could have eaten those all day! Very pleasant experience, nice location and friendly staff! Definitely worth the drive so we'll be back to use that gift card!

    Buffalo wings. Huge and the perfect spice.  Blue cheese is awesome too!

    Great, old-school neighborhood bar. Manager Vic is always there to greet guests and make sure they have everything they need. Nicole at the bar is awesome and knows everyone's names. $1 wings on happy hour and always a nice pour of wine!

    Costa Peru has been bookmarked in my Yelp list for a while, and on my birthday, my mom asked where…read moreI wanted to go for dinner. Milford's restaurant week was happening, and Costa Peru was on my list, so I decided to go there. My family ordered seafood, while I went with the Peruvian Chicken Wings topped with Peruvian Barbecue sauce, Ceviche Chicken Wings, and Lomo Salado. I was particularly curious about the Ceviche wings because I'd never heard of them before. The ceviche sauce is inspired by Aji Limo Ceviche, a lively Peruvian dish featuring fresh, raw white fish like sea bass or flounder "cooked" in lime juice, seasoned with citrusy, spicy Aji Limo peppers, red onions, and cilantro. It's usually served with sweet potato, corn, and leche de tigre (tiger's milk), offering a tart, spicy, and refreshing flavor. The Ceviche wings were fantastic. They had a bright citrus kick, and I could taste all the distinct flavors, including the spices and chilies. They really hit the spot. The barbecue wings were just as enjoyable, with a sweet yet tangy sauce and perfectly seasoned chicken. The Lomo Salado was also a hit; the rice was fluffy and full of flavor, and the tender Lomo meat practically melted in my mouth. For dessert, I ordered the flan. It was my first time trying it, and I was curious about the taste. Honestly, I didn't care much for the texture, but I'm glad I gave it a shot. My son picked the Passion Fruit Cheesecake, which was pretty good. It's not something I'd order again, but I'm glad I tried it. The service was excellent, and I'm definitely looking forward to returning and trying more dishes from the menu.

I had the tallarin verde con pollo and my friend had the same but with steak. We both enjoyed our meals. The verde sauce was super saucy, which I loved. I added the green aji sauce to my chicken for even more flavor. Great prices. Would definitely recommend and will definitely visit when in the area again!

Birthday…read moreparty, bridal/baby shower, or any event that you attend or have at RVB is going to be great. For events, the food is better than you would expect. But as an indoor sit down restaurant, I wanted a little more from the food not just event/catered foods served individually... Overall the food was good/okay. Other than the eggplant fries, nothing screamed come back for more. Service was okay. She definitely wasn't knowledgeable about the drinks and she couldn't bother to ask the bartender (I didn't realize there was a whole bar/ bar section until walking out) I asked if one of their drinks had a specific ingredient and the response was I don't know. And my aunt wanted a mocktail ( non-alcoholic cocktail) for her bday since she doesnt drink and the server said they didn't offer any. Any bartender knows at least 1 mocktail recipe, but like I said she couldn't bother to ask and I didn't realize there was a bar on the other side or I would have just went over and asked myself... If someone had an event here I'd be happy to go, but as a non-event diner I'm not in a rush to go back...

The warm Brussels tower paired with a crispy risotto cake, sweet plumped dried cranberries, and the most incredible whipped parmesan dressing! Perfection!

My son always raved over their Mac N' cheese and this is where he wanted us to take him for his 22nd birthday, he wanted their Mac N' cheese, so both my son and my other son's girlfriend ordered the mac & cheese. They took about four bites and my son decided it's different. It's not like it used to be doesn't taste right. Nonetheless, he was disappointed on his birthday. Beside that, our food was good. But the first noticeable thing was our server a waitress, she was pretty rude even though we were very nice to her. After we'd gotten home my other son looked it up and seen a few reviews on the service of this very same waitress/server. We dined there on 05/06/26 . And got there about 8:30-9:00pm
