    The best part of our visit was our server, Amanda. She was pleasant, professional and an excellent server. We have been to Riverbank several times and this was by far the best service. The food on the other hand was the worst it's ever been. We brought friends from out of town and we're embarrassed as we had raved about the food from past experiences. The pork schnitzel were huge but overcooked and dry. The chicken supreme, also overcooked/dry. The fish, you guessed it - dry. The créme brulée was dark brown rather than golden. An unusually disappointing meal. The wine was nice and thank goodness for the excellent service or our night would have been a total bust. It has been awhile since our last visit.. questioning whether ownership or chefs have changed?

    Brunch on a busy Father’s Day was excellent. The breakfast bowl was delicious , pork belly was tender and flavorful. My husband had the big breakfast with three eggs, bacon and sausage which he thoroughly enjoyed. Service was efficient. Highly recommend you go!
