Stopped by for happy hour. So glad we did!! My husband was excited to see Coors Banquet on the menu! He cant get it in our area restaurants! I had this delish strawberry puree martini with warm muddled spices. Best marini i ever had. And the taco and fries were superb!! Nice job!!! Bravo!!! We will be back!

Dined here a few years back and it was great. This time, unfortunately, not that great.
This is really a beautiful restaurant on the Rhode Island side of the Pawcatuck River in Westerly. It doesn’t look like much from the outside but once you enter you look out over the river through very large windows in the back of the restaurant.
We ordered the New England clam chowder and the Fish Burrito. The clam chowder broth was watery and the clams looked old and were not that plentiful and, they were very chewy. I guess we should have paid the extra buck and had cream in the broth, but that’s not how NE chowder is generally served.
The haddock in the burrito was very tasty, but the burrito itself was massive and stuffed with rice, so much so, it was hard to find the haddock. It was just too much stuffing and quite unappetizing to look at really. The wrapping itself was delicious but we usually only eat part of that favoring instead what’s inside. The french fires, on the other hand, were simply fantastic.
They have what appears to be a nice oyster bar. Several ladies sitting next to us were devouring fresh clams or oysters which looked delicious. Saw another dude eating what seemed like a terrific burger. Guess we made the wrong choice.
Our server was very efficient and friendly. And, the portion sizes were fine. However, in the end it was a disappointing experience.

Had a romantic dinner with fancy drinks. Excellent service from the moment we arrived. Creative take on dishes and imaginative drinks! We tried the calamari, hot honey butter cornbread, and lobster lettuce wraps. Fresh seafood and located on the river. Would love to go back when the patio is open!

Server was so friendly and helpful with any questions. The ambiance of the room was relaxing. Food was mid. My fish was delicate, juicy and flavorful, but the batter was soggy.

We really enjoyed our first time at River Bar. Service was friendly and professional. The location is great, and the outdoor seating on the river is very cool! I had the fish burrito which was delicious. The rice to fish ratio was a touch high, but the flavors were fantastic. We also had the mushroom poke bowl featuring veggies from local growers. Our resident vegetarian said it was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back.

Opening day and what can I say? The food was amazing I had the Burger Deluxe and I added bacon! (Highly recommend). Along with the fresh look and super attentive staff. Everyone was wonderful. 5 stars all around! And the fact you can see items on the menu where local farms are sourced is delightful. I will definitely be coming back and bringing friends.

Their breakfast was divine. The staff were very friendly & made for a lovely atmosphere especially sitting outside by the water. They even kept my dog’s water full. Will have to go back for the seafood!

It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but we’re so glad we stopped in! We loved the location, overlooking the river and the inside it is so cute inside.
Their cocktails were great, I particularly liked “The Gaslighter.” We also had oysters and shrimp cocktail, which was great! For my entree I had scallops, which were amazing.
Service was great and they have parking right out front. I definitely recommend!

Great spot for lunch on the river. The back patio was shaded, and food was very good (including generous kids’ portions of fish n chips). The sourdough bread plate was a delicious appetizer (fresh, crusty bread with garlic butter).
