Great place!! We sat in the bar, thanks to the sweet hostess who helped us snag a table on a Friday night. We ordered oysters Rockefeller and the egg rolls to start. Egg rolls were 9/10. I asked for ranch dressing and it elevated to 10/10. They should serve them with ranch!!! The oysters were raw under the spinach toppings. Not to my hubs liking. We are used to the oysters being steamed/roasted under the toppings. We bo h got salads for our meal. Yum!! My Caesar with blackened shrimp was amazing! The hubs got the raspberry salad with grilled chicken. Also delicious! Would definitely come back next time we are in Conway! read more

If you are in the conway area and want a great quick lunch spot stop in here. Grab a table on the second floor patio that over looking downtown Conway. I ordered the shrimp tacos which came out pretty good. The star of the dish was the pasta salad that comes on the side, I can make a whole meal out of that. read more

Nice little Bistro in Downtown Conway. We ate on the upstairs patio---lots of plants and great breezes. Got the Monte Cristo---not deep fried like we expected, the bread was more like French Toast. The dip with it was good---waitress said it was maple flavored, but it seemed more like cranberry. Good iced tea. Service was good. read more

Very disappointing experience at Rivertown Bistro in Conway. Two people in our group ordered the filet mignon, and what came out was shockingly thin and overcooked. After taking a closer look, it didn't even seem like filet at all--more like a marinated NY strip being passed off as something else. Another person ordered the chicken parmesan with shrimp scampi, and that was just as bad. The shrimp had no flavor and came without any scampi sauce, and the pasta was completely plain and tasteless. Overall, the food quality was far below expectations, especially for the prices. We left extremely disappointed and will not be returning. read more

Great place that could be better with attention to detail. Food crumbs on the menu and stains on the cloth wrapping the bread. Other than that the food was great. Server was attentive. Oil with the bread I could take a gallon of. Portion was great. Sushi was amazing. If you order the crab cakes bring your appetite. Over all I'll be back on my next trip to Conway and will request upstairs on the patio read more

Nice atmosphere but that's it. To start our waitress lacked the customer service skills required when dealing with the public. I ordered a house salad and when I asked what types of dressing they offered she responded " we have a lot, what do you want?" That was obviously not the right answer. The 4 oz Filet I ordered was as thin as paper and very small. I mentioned this to our waitress and questioned if it truly was a filet and she advised it was cut from an 8 oz filet and then butterflied. It was NOT and how dare they try to pass it off as such. Highly disappointed and will obviously not return. read more

Food was very good. Good atmosphere and staff were all polite and friendly. Spring rolls are excellent. French onion soup was also very good. Drinks were a little slow to come out but good experience overall read more

The hostess was very snarky. She wouldn't seat us where we requested. Told us that the area we requested was reserved. We were there for over an hour and not one person was seated in the so called reserved seats. The food was mediocre, I was surprised since we had heard good things about the food. Our waitress seemed uninterested in giving us excellent customer service, she only came back to give us the check. We were there around 4-5 pm during the week and was wondering why they weren't that busy. They had less than six customers in the place. Needless to say we won't ever come back. read more

We had a fantastic dinner with family at Rivertown Bistro in Conway, SC also know as the City of Halloween for the month of October! This is our 3rd visit to the restaurant and every time we have loved it. We ordered: The Clementine Martini, Harvest Moon Martini, Blackberry Manhattan, Beer Cheese Daily Fondue Appetizer (must try!), Meyer Prime Ribeye, Pan Seared Duck, Lobster, shrimp, and Scallop Au Gratin, Roasted Quail with Grilled Shrimp, Classic Creme Brûlée, and a cappuccino to finish! read more

Me and my girl friends went here yesterday and sat in the bar, there was a roach crawling and the bartender tried to kill it and after acted like nothing happened. The young lady tried to bring us bread, which we usually don't get bread service in the bar. I'm guessing it was to butter us up, but instead we got up and left quick. read more

Extremely rude! My friend and I went in for a cocktail given it's great reviews. Since we're from out of state and visiting family without of state identification we were told "he was uncomfortable to serve us" and forced to leave. Absolutely unacceptable when you are trying to give a business your money and trying to enjoy your vacation. Will never even attempt to give this place business again. Such a shame read more

Short wait for a busy restaurant that comes highly recommended by the Hertz Airport Rental Car employees. It certainly did measure up for outstanding southern hospitality and food! Friendly staff and clean facilities and excellent menu Brunch selections! Very casual or very dressy on a Sunday. I would certainly go back in a hot minute and everyday! read more

Stopped in for a business lunch for a group of three. Parking downtown was abysmal but we finally found a spot open and walked back to the restaurant. We were seated immediately upstairs. Very nice interior. Sort of uptown classy and some Boho mixed in. Service was good and friendly and knowledgeable. We tried the Spring rolls as that is what they are known for. They were interesting and tasty. Best in world is a bit of a stretch but good. I had the cod taco which were good. The cod was delicious and the gyro sauce was delectable. The plain lettuce though was a distraction and kept the taco from being too notch. The sweet potato chips were ok and the pasta salad was delicious. I would love the recipe for. Good meal. All was great. read more

The Braised beef cheek pimento cheese a collard green chow chow on a hoagie roll. Served with yam chips was sublime. I expected the beef to be the upfront flavor but I was surprised at the mixture of flavors from the pimento cheese and collard greens. The service was excellent and the staff were very attentive. The ambience of the place is beautifully done. Would definitely recommend this place. We are coming back for dinner! read more

I love the sushi roll. I can't think of the name, but I think it's the only thing sushi they offer.

The food was delicious and the service was attentive. The atmosphere was also pleasant.

The food was good, service was so so. Dessert - apple cobbler too sweet to eat. Disappointing.

The good is excellent! The service was awesome! If in the area of Clayton SC come in and enjoy delicious food with a lovely ambiance. read more

We had delicious food and great service at this place. It had a great atmosphere with upbeat music that wasn't too loud. Our server was friendly and helpful.

One block down and a little unassuming, this bistro was a great place for our lunch. Menu had lots of options for lunch and dinner. Amazing amothsphere and a large upstairs, but we didn't get up there. We had an appetizer and split a sandwich. Both were amazing, made from scratch, satisfied the pallet and the visual of what I expected. Also great selection of drinks and champagne by the glass. Service was efficient and attentive. Two table visits by owner possibly or manager was professional. Would recommend. read more

Nice size restaurant. We came here for brunch on a Saturday at noonish. Got seated right away. Waitress was nice. Then it went downhill. The menu had interesting choices, but it didn't meet the expectations. We asked for medium well burgers and they came out med/rare. Fries were good. Steak and eggs were okay. Steak was hot, but the sunny side eggs and potatoes were cold. The alcoholic drinks were very good tho. Up in the air about coming back. read more

I have been coming here for many years and I have never reviewed this place . I am sorry I haven't done so before but if you find yourself in Conway and want to eat some amazing food come here. Darrin Smith has been running and cooking here for 30 years and it is incredible. He always keeps his menu up to date with new creations! You will never be disappointed and the prices are very reasonable unlike some arrogant start ups. Good food, good prices and a happy tummy my wife and I love it here. Try the Thai chicken tender appetizer, you won't be disappointed. read more

As part of our visit to view Halloween City, we made a reservation at RB. We were seated promptly at our scheduled time. Ordered a Manhattan and what was served was extremely sweet, unlike a Manhattan. Of the four dinners all were acceptable except one; the pork chop. Great flavor but extremely tough and fatty. Never experienced a pork chop so tough. Had a new waitress who needed much more training. Just checked my credit card receipt and it appears she added $3.00 to my check. We are locals and restaurant just landed on my "no go" list. I can tolerate a bad drink or a bad meal, I won't tolerate fraud. read more

The Mrs & I brought a friend here for lunch after reviewing the menu. We were very pleased with the food & service. The only disappointment was the lunch & dinner menu are not the same & I was looking forward to one of the dinner items which wasn't available until after 5pm. But the food & service was excellent! read more

If you find yourself in downtown Conway do yourself a favor and stop in to this beautiful bistro and ask for Lee. She is the best server and super knowledgeable and friendly. I stopped for a drink and the espresso martinis are a hit I asked them to add a shot of Baileys and that put it over the top. I got a little hungry so I ordered the cinnamon roll. This was not the typical cinnamon roll this was a flaky buttery sweet creation that knocked my socks off. Over never had a cinnamon roll that was layered with so much flavor. It put me in the mind of a croissant almost. I will definitely be coming back for dinner next time I'm in the area. read more

This place has been in business for 30 YEARS, so they definitely must be doing something right... The fried egg rolls (appetizers) are crunchy and delicious. I had the Parmesan Encrusted Grouper with risotto (great choice btw); Beer was served REALLY cold in an extra frozen glass and our waitress (Alyssa) was politeness incarnate: she was upbeat and professional! The pasta with scallops tasted great but it's seasonal so I don't know if it will be available when you visit. The ONLY reason I didn't give it a five * was because they only have ONE stall at the men's restroom; no urinals, just a single stall. I actually had to wait for a customer to finish before I could use it (funny enough, there are two stools inside the bathroom for men to wait sitting... ) Plates aren't small as in French cuisine, but not as big as Italian or Cuban dishes. It was the size of my appetite. Enjoyed my time there. Not a bad idea to call for reservations, especially if you're a bigger party (we were 3 adults ). Heard sometimes there's a line formed outside... The restaurant has a simple but nice decor, including 2 deer/moose statues at the dining area. I recommend it! read more

In town moving our daughter into CCU and looking for place to eat last minute. Looked past this place on Yelp many times due to mixed reviews. Well reviews were mostly right. Menu is a bit strange, looks like it hasn't changed in years. Food was mediocre at best and for the price not worth it. Service was good. Would say closer to 3.5 stars read more

The place has gone downhill over the years the food is nowhere near as good the last time we ate there we were unhappy with the food and noticed the cleanliness was not up par read more

Set up a good night for a Wizard of Oz play arrived at 6 o'clock. Me and my girlfriend ordered three appetizers. I've been waiting 30 minutes the waiter let us know. He forgot to put the order in. Did not service us anymore for the next 30 mins, no water no drinks. We question when are we getting our food? He said we were fifth in line. A question is this serious is this really happening? He let the manager know. It was a young lady dressed in all red October 31 Halloween night she was the manager. Manager looked at us like she gave two Shiites.... No class. read more

Our waiter (dark hair in a pony tail/bun) who worked behind the bar and waited tables was very rude. When we had a question, he was already walking away from the table so he could not hear the question. He was abrupt when he did answer. He completely ruined any enjoyment of the food. Will never return....there are too many other places to eat. read more

Made reservations for 5. Seated promptly and the meal and apps were amazing. The stuffed artichoke is a must try. The signature cocktails were also a hit. The dining area is classy and I would feel weird not dressing well. A golf shirt is fine. read more

Great experience there. We sat at the bar but got great service. The pork chop was amazing. I'd highly recommend but you better be hungry.

This restaurant has gone down hill over the past years. They haven't updated anything since they modeled after the fire. The spring rolls are always good. But the fish and steak options aren't quality. read more

What a nice patio in the cute little town of Conway. And speaking of cheesy grits, I don't think we've ever had so much cheesy grits in our shrimp and grits in my entire life. It was pretty good though. Other great things- that blackened tomato bisque was wonderful and the biscuit sando was decent but messy. This is BIG, somewhat messy food, but we enjoyed it so, yeah, good times to be had for all here. Oh, and make sure you have the low country spring rolls. Delish! We'd go back... read more
