REVIEWS OF Riverbank Estate Winery IN Swan River

Brian Tucker

Fantastic Service, great wine and view. Jo and Laura were absolutely Devine with their service and recommendations. Definitely will return.????????????

Sunday lunch on 11th April. Service for the main courses was slow, well in excess of 45minutes. When the food arrived my three companions enjoyed their meals (2 x slow cooked pork and 1 x salmon). However, my dry aged ribeye was attached to a bone, thin and overcooked. My research today, Monday 12th, indicates this was NOT a ribeye. What dreadful misrepresentation. One of the worst steaks I have ever had - never again!!

We had a Sunday lunch at Riverbank. It was the best meal we’ve had in ages. The chef clearly puts a lot of thought and love into each item on the menu. Lovely bottle of dry rose and really good service. Thanks very much. We’ll be back!

Dearest Belinda and the team at Riverbank Estate, Thank you so very much for making our wedding day on 3.4.21 so special and perfect. You have all worked tirelessly in setting up our decorations to perfection, and the staff really took great care of us, making sure we had drinks and food. Our minds were blown when we stepped into your venue. Well done! I cant remember her name but a female staff with short hair and glasses really took care of me and my wedding dress at the ceremony and made sure I had food at the reception, and packing things up when the thunderstorm hit. Thank you! Our guests and us loved the food (shout out to the pizza guy and barista lady!) and we were so impressed by all the staff who were always busy making sure everyone had food and drinks, doing all this with big smiles! What an amazing team you all are, and you all made magic happen for our wedding! Our hearts and bellies were so full from the attentiveness, service and food you all provided that day Thank you Chloe & Ryan

Bev did a great job today suggesting wine and food. I always enjoy going to The Riverbank

Shelley Wilson

Absolutely beautiful experience at Riverbank Estate. Very welcoming, service was exceptional and food was nothing short of delicious. Also greeted by the owner who was very friendly. Definitely recommend and would visit again.

Reserved a table for my Dad’s birthday, having looked over various menus in the swan valley and choosing this restaurant for the seafood platter. When we arrived for our 1pm booking our table wanted to order 3 seafood platters, in which we were told that they had sold out of the 5 they had available for the day. I understand at this time of year supply is difficult, however when you have something on your menu and have reservations and expecting a busy service, one would expect that a restaurant of this calibre would be able to offer their full menu an hour into service. In absence of the seafood platters, one patron at our table decided to order the steak, asking for this to be cooked medium rare. However, the steak came out barely cooked and was rare at best. The patron couldn’t eat it and someone else at the table had to eat it, stating that it was too chewy and not nice. The service was nothing to rave about either, having to ask two different staff members for another bottle of sparking water and that taking about 15 minutes to finally come. We order chef’s grazing plates for starters, yet the waiter was able to tell us exactly what was on the plate. All in all, this restaurant has potential, however there is considerable room for improvement.

Shaun Cameron

A massive thank you to the team at riverbank estate, in particular Lindsay. We got married at riverbank last weekend and it was the most incredible night of our lives. From the beginning the events & wedding team were always open to answering any of our queries and many questions. When Lindsay took over managing weddings she was so invested and helped us with everything. No request was too much and she was always checking in to see how the planning was going. On our wedding day both Lindsay, Beverly and the team were incredible. They took care of absolutely everything and it was the most memorable night. The food was fantastic and all of the team were so helpful. We could not recommend riverbank enough and wish we could do it all over again. Thank you all so much xx

Silas Hack

Fantastic experience today at riverbank great views will definitely be back!!

Elsa

Had a great time tasting the wines and they have a great collection of Red wines.

Michal Chruscinski

Went a wedding here on the 4th December and it was a fantastic venue. Great bartender, food and the staff went out of their way to help guests.

Bruce

Wine was average. Views were good. All the food was extremely overcooked and dry, the garlic bread was cooked in a sandwich toaster and was like eating cardboard with a slice of melted cheese in the middle. There we children screaming all through the afternoon and running around the resteraunt. They even pushed their way through one of the plastic wind protector panels and nothing was done by the wait staff or their parents. For the price you pay for the food and wine this was pretty poor.

Michelle Glass

Ticks all the boxes. Great food, wine, and atmosphere, the service was second to none. See you again soon!

Karl Pohio

Food outstanding, service polite, friendly, respectful and so welcoming. Our new favourite 'lunch out' destination. Treat yourself and definitely go!

rod waters

Lunch at River Bank Estate was fabulous, the service was magnificent and certainly make you feel at home as soon as you arrive. Bev was our host and was fantastic, the food including the fish of the day a white brim was scrumptious and pork belly absolutely divine, thoroughly recommend the sensational surrounds of River Bank Estate

Mark Andrews

Not great value for money, Overpriced food, food so tiny on the plate. Great atmosphere and food was nice but just so overpriced ! We had a large group and even pre ordered our food and they still served it to us late Not impressed

david baker

Great atmosphere.Quality Customer and table service from the very friendly staff.Picturisque views from your table.Excellent Vibe througout.Laura was pure class and very professional at the door.Recommend it highly.*****

Big Robster

Riverbank once again shines through, fabulous food, wonderful company and great service , thank you Bev and the team for a lovely lunch. And as always delicious wines.

Airin Vestal

This is the third time we have been to REW. It was lunch for Fathers Day. We arrived at 11.50am. Limited menu for the event, which was fine. We ordered and in reasonable time we got drinks and our entree. Excellent food. Then the wheels fell off. We waited another 1 hour and 50 minutes for our main course. Two tables of patrons who arrived after us were served their mains before us. In fact one of these tables were served their desserts before we got our main courses. When we did eat, once again the food was great. My theory on this poor service, is that their were two chefs, one fast, one slow. Maybe I am wrong, but how else could the other tables being served first be explained? Finally, the men's toilet was in a wet and messy state half way through the service. It should be checked regularly. Anyway, we would go back, but just not on a special day. We also appreciate the wine and the live music and these are reasons we continue to go. The response from the manager online was they would respond: "Response from the owner a week ago Hello Bruce, our restaurant manager will be in touch with you shortly. Thank you." Two weeks later there has been no phone call. If there is I will let you know. Got a phone call from Ellie. She was apologetic about the wait for the food and speculated about why it happened. I appreciated the call and will return a fourth time. A new review will occur then.

Peter Why

We had an amazing experience at Riverbank recently. The food was delicious and the service was exceptional. The aged steak as beautifully done and Riverbanks wine selection was matched perfectly. Highly recommended and will definitely be back

Sophie P

Beautiful food and service. Bev went above and beyond to accommodate us. 5 star service!

MTBX SUPREME

Went to the restaurant for lunch on Friday 23rd June, found it very expensive given that it is not fine dining, e.g. $42 for a small piece of snapper and then side serves started at $10 for mash potato!!! Consumers should also be aware that the emphasis is on their own wine (naturally) so there is not much of a choice; unfortunately the Riverbank wine is just average. The service was also a let down given the prices. I can think of much better places for the money.

Paul Williams

Rare to find staff this unprofessional at a winery. Nice meal however the female staff member (also manager) left us with a bad taste. We raised a minor issue and got a petty, and defensive response. I note other reviewers also make similar comments. Disappointing.

Sarah Haynes

Food amazing. Wine beautiful. Views wonderful. However, service staff (though friendly and pleasant) letting the whole experience down by lack of polish, forgetfulness and not being attentive enough. No point in having talented chefs if you're going to hire inexperienced waitstaff and not provide adequate training. Overpriced restaurant masquerading as fine dining. Disappointing.

La La Land

I organise my 2 years old son birthday and my own birthdays . And was great ..... everybody loves the views and the food. Because we did Sunday was so much entertainment for everybody. Highly recommended to anybody for kids or adults birthdays

Bernie Tibbett

We went there to have lunch last Friday and the food was beautiful and the staff were super friendly. Nice view once all the grape vines are turning green. Food was super delicious especially the chef's platter, we loved the pumpkin soup. Definitely come back again. Thank you.

Aaron Collis

Staff so so friendly. Wine to die for and the meal - Lobster and the steak brilliant. So comming back.

Michelle F

Lovely long lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The menu looks limited at a glance ,but it does cover all the requirements. We grazed and ate for nearly 3 hours and it went in the blink of an eye. Birthday girl went home sated and relaxed. Thankyou Peggy our waitress for the great service

fionna wheatley

Friendly service, great food and atmosphere. Perfect way to spend a Sunday with friends. Thanks to Bev for making our day enjoyable.

Nikki Towell

We recently had our wedding reception at Riverbank Estate. All the staff were friendly and understanding. The food was great, served in a timely manner; very fast! Their wine selections for the evening tasted great. We would highly recommend anyone and everyone to choose this venue for your wedding reception.

Naomi Beacham

One of our favourites that we have visited many times. Good food wine and service always.

Wen Chan

Excellent lunch - steaks were delicious accompanied (as recommended) by a tasty 2018 BDX Tempranillo. Desserts were extra special, particularly the chocolate dome and the very generous cheese plate accompanied by a superb muscat. Highly recommend!

Debbie Harrison

Peggy, Cat, Bailey, Calixia were excellent hosts, making sure out every need was met. The wine was delicious, make sure you stop in.

Ally Michel

Scallops were divine, chicken lollipop was scrumptious, Pork belly was sublime, sirloin steak was out of this world. View was so beautiful…dessert was decadent. And then the wine!!! It was amazing!!! The Rose, the Eric Anthony Cab Sauv/Malbec blend, & the Pedro…omg!!!! Don’t think, just do it!!

Scott Curnow-Rose

I and my parents had an amazing lunch at Riverbank Estate today. The food was sublime and beautifully presented. The bread came hot from the oven with slow roasted garlic and fresh butter, the steak tartar with slow cooked egg was amazing enough that I would go back just for that alone!! The chef, Marco, from Rome, is worth his weight in gold. His delightful small plates were perfectly sized and 5 dishes between us, were filling enough that we couldn't fit dessert, which I will have to go back for cherries and chocolate.. yes please! Michelin quality food at home.... The house staff were just as welcoming and efficient. We managed to squeeze in a tasting before the food came and we ended up with a couple of cases of wine too... great day out.

Alex D'Angelo

I would absolutely recommend Riverbank Estate as an amazing experience for all foodies ..... the service and recommendations by the staff especially Bev was awesome .... the wines and the aged beef will certainly bring me back again and again ..... thank you to all of the staff and the chefs.... you guys have done an amazing job.

Clay Prior

Lovely unexpected afternoon in the valley. Service, venue, food and wine were all above expectations. Beautiful art class was in progress when we called in which looked very enjoyable and creative. Well worth a visit!

Ben Aldridge

This is our first visit to this hidden gem. After searching online for somewhere close to our accommodation for lunch we decided to give the Riverbank Estate Winery a try. The google reviews at this time were fair but definitely don’t reflect how awesome this restaurant is. I don’t usually write reviews either but I had to share my experience with Perth, as I feel they deserve the recognition. We Dine out weekly and I have to say this is now in my top 3 restaurants. Everything was cooked to perfection. The chef 100% “nailed it. “ I have to mention how the octopus was tender and perfectly charred. I’ve only ever tasted octopus as perfect as this once before. And I believe octopus is very hard to perfect. Finally, the great culinary experience is matched with the warm friendly service. Everyone seems to really enjoy working here which I find refreshing. We will be back very soon ????

Raegan Lei

It was good I was there for my cousins Wedding on Saturday for dinner but I think I didn’t like was them misspelling my name as Elisa and I didn’t get my kid dessert but instead I got the adult dessert which was cheesecake. But overall it was good highly recommended.

Joe Mihic

I took my friends here Sunday, thank you to Bev for the amazing service, also the chef food was amazing, very enjoyable day. Thanks Ray and Hilary Towell.

Jamie Parkin

The place is beautiful and easy to find and to park. Food was amazing and staffs were very friendly. Definitely a place to go to enjoy great food and view.

Patrick Mahon

Set menu is ridiculously over priced, service was extremely slow. Couldn’t wait to pay the overpriced bill an get out of there after 3 hours of waiting. I had to stop on the way home to feed the family, after dropping $240 for lunch! Maybe the regular menu represents better value, but if you have a larger group and only get the option of a set menu, go some where else.

Roweina Taylor

Christmas Lunch with my boy. Meal was amazing as always. Service was 5 star, scenery perfect. Will be back for sure. ????????❤️

Brent McMillan

One of my best experience by Riverbank Estate Team! Especially Toni she is amazing for helping me to get my fiancé the best Christmas party! Hopefully my fiancé could get me few bottles of Cabernet Franc Zinfandel, Tempranillo & Vermentino for my new year gifts!

I I

First time at this restaurant winery very impressed good food and very good service we will be back for sure

Rob

I took my family here for lunch this weekend and it was one of the nicest lunches I have had in awhile. Eric the owner took the time to take us on a little wine tour to show us how it’s all made. I will be taking my wife here for our anniversary next month for sure.

Emily Charman

Brilliant food, excellent service great location highly recommend

Meliyawati

Such a beautiful venue, food is delicious and the wine is incredible! Will definatley be back for round 2

Claudia K

Amazing wine tasting, fabulous service the staff are so friendly. Food was divine. Chef Marco is fabulous. Will definitely be back Thanks to Bev for her service and laughs.

Tony Hamilton

Awesome lunch, Shawn took care of us and was great fun. Second time here for our crew and we’ll be back again.

Kieran Best

Stunning setting in the Swan Valley. Fantastic staff who were funny and helpful. Favourite wine - Rose and their fortified wine ????. Great meal, kid friendly, live music, fresh air - couldn’t ask for more

Hiran Ratnayake

Amazing place for wine, great view of goats.. the staff is fantastic especially Cat

Paul Cooper

Not sure what some people reviewing are on about. Service was with a smile, prompt, knowledgeable and engaging. Even with a new staff member, questions were answered and when unknown, help was sought quickly. Chef knows how to cook. All our food was presented immaculately and everything was handled with the care fine produce deserves. Food was flavoured perfectly with nothing over seasoned or too intense. This is key with seafood especially. Food melted in the mouth and the Mediterranean style salad was so complementary to the rest of the food. Overall a great experience and although it wasn't flat out, staff were working hard. Levels of understanding are sometimes needed when things are not perfect because nobody is perfect and when we pointed out a small issue with squid, chef rectified it and gave us more than an adequate replacement. Wine was advised expertly and matched our food choice. I will be back. Beautiful location adds to it too.

Linden Footman

Come here every year for our friends birthday ., lovely setting , great service from our lovely waitress and excellent food and wine . Highly recommend this place

殺自

Well what an experience. To Eric and his team, what a fantastic venue and staff you have. I arrived a tad late on Sunday and was told the kitchen would be closing, but the staff treated my family and myself like kings and queens! The best service from a lady called Jo and amazing food and wine. The scenery is to die for as well. Eric and his team are the best and please go and see them in Caversham, i will now be going there at least once a month Keep up the good work. A total pleasurable experience

Steph Carrick

Lovely lunch with a friend visiting. Peggy was amazing on the customer service front. Food was delicious.

Grayden Bartlett

Visited recently with friends for lunch. A very pleasant setting in the Swan Valley region. A very limited menu unfortunately, wine list was quite comprehensive. However the staff were not very attentive they forgot to bring the ordered wine and brought out a dirty plate. The steak was very nicely cooked but was certainly not a good enough size for two people even though it said it was a meal to share at $88 Probably won’t go back anytime soon

nunzio vinciullo

This place is great. I have been a number of times and have always left full and happy. The setting of over looking the vinyards is perfect for any time of the year. The food and wine is great and the service is to. There are some pricey items on the menu but as the saying goes "you get what you pay for". Highly recommended !!

Peter Horrell

Stunning food! Amazing wine! Perfect location! Great service from knowledgeable wait staff! A fabulous place to share a meal with a special loved one. Simply one of the little known gems in the Swan Valley. You must try this place if you haven't already, or visit it again even if you know it well. We had Humpty Doo Barramundi and it was exceptionally good. Enjoy!!!

Cherie Daniel

Hubby and I had a very enjoyable weekday lunch this week. Instantly felt relaxed being there. What a lovely picturesque property, so nice looking out to the vineyards. The old truck, entrance wall and cottage home really added character. My favourite was entree the Burrata cheese with a crumbed deep fried tomato. Our pork belly was cooked perfectly and we finished off lunch with an affogatto that was served with a delicious muscat wine. So close to Perth , yet instantly felt away from it all. Will definitely be back , maybe on the weekend with the family!

Mike Wright

Lovely setting, food and wine were incredible. Such a wonderful treat for a Sunday afternoon

Tyson Beattie

We enjoyed a tasty lunch at Riverbank Estate Winery today. I cannot fault the service, food or setting. Exemplary. The main courses and the dessert were all divine and beautifully presented. I am fussy and have to say that I was super impressed. We arrived early, were greeted warmly and urge other diners to sample the restful picturesque setting, the wonderful wines and the chef’s meticulous and thoughtful presentation. For us, this restaurant is a winner.

Bruce Walker

Beautiful Food, attentive staff and great atmosphere and fantastic setting well be back xx thank you ????????

Maurie n Jane Watson

Amazing experience and atmosphere! We attended the Italian Street Food Event held at Riverbank Estate Winery & Restaurant on Sunday. The place is very welcoming with a stunning scenery and view of the vineyards. The food was delicious and we enjoyed the great selection of wines on offer. I personally loved the Rose! Friendly staff with excellent service. I highly recommend this place to family and friends.

rachael keir

We had a fantastic time with Awesome food and great service the atmosphere was nice with families enjoying the lawn area plus live music as well Thank you Riverbank Estate Winery

Ben Breault

The combined expertise of their Korean and Italian chefs results in a delicious menu! The pork belly was rendered to perfection and combined with the goats cheese ravioli paired perfectly with a sublime Grenache!

Trish Solly

Suzanne Ardagh

It started with a stunningly beautiful day, hardly a cloud in the sky, when we arrived we were seated under the vines, we enjoyed a complimentary tasting of their wines and then relaxed for lunch, the grounds are beautiful, the wines are delicious, the service was attentive and friendly and the food was exquisite. I am really looking forward to going back there.

Kerryn Bricknell

Always the best place to be. Always come back

Ross Carmichael

Recently took the family to Riverbank Winery on Sunday for their Italian Street Food on the Lawn. Had a great day with the kids on the picnic blanket listening to the live music and enjoying all the Swan Valley has to offer. Food was great and the wines were amazing. Would definitely recommend visiting.

Khaled Baghdadi

Went there for Italian street food event on sunday! Love the ambience, perfect place to spent with famiily, spacious lawn for kids to play and dog friendly, we had great time and everything on point, peaceful stunning view of winery coupled with delicious food and beautiful wines while enjoying music. Dont forget to bring your picnic stuff!

Sheryl Mauger

Riverbank is a great winery/restaurant in the Swan Valley. The food is very good and the scenery is very relaxing. We came here on a day where they did not have enough staff for the customers and so they forgot our cutlery, forgot to bring us cutlery after we asked, and forgot to tell us one of our meals was unavailable until much later. They made up for this by taking meals off our bill and their service was still very friendly and welcoming. I would still return here for a meal in the future

Cynthia Gleeson

The Pork Belly was just Devine!!!! Also shared the Scotch fillet with Missus which was just as awesome

Elise Cruttenden

Despite having only one waitress on she was a machine at keeping us all happy. Its a beautiful location and the wine was amazing. It was a little pricey but the food was great.

Mervina Pendleton

Peggy was a great host for a birthday celebration. Amazing food, drinks and atmosphere, thanks for making the afternoon for us Peggy

Georgia Cutler

Nice atmosphere and great service! We spent a great time on Saturday afternoon!

Nadine Thomas

Beautiful wine, beautiful food and amazing service. 5 Star experience with a warm family feel. The vegetarian meals are beyond compare. Thank you to Lindsay, Bev, Jo, Peggy and team for a wonderful afternoon.

Steffi Siegert

Beautiful location and lovely serving staff. Our waitress, Sarah, was excellent, though run off her feet. BUT .... We waited 20 minutes for our drinks and 45 for our food. Not good enough in a fine dining restaurant. Food was pretty good when it finally arrived though my steak was a bit overcooked and the meals were quite overpriced.

Sally

Wow- the food, the service, the wine! I cannot fault! Will certainly be back for many more. Love a place that is accommodating to my sisters weird requests! Can’t recommend enough. The view of the swan valley vineyards is the cherry on top!

Gi Lo

Excellent food, great wine and a perfect atmosphere. Highly recommend. Definitely will be back

Tim Broadley

What a fantastic venue!! We spent a Sunday afternoon there with our kids & enjoyed the Italian Street Food & live music, we all had a ball. The Staff are so lovely & attentive, the food was excellent & the vibes were perfect for a relaxing afternoon. We’re going back this weekend, definitely worth a visit.

Jenny Zlendich

Fabulous place lovely staff Shawn was awesome l. We’ll be back and tell our friends to come for the amazing food and wine.

Sandy Cattley

This winery is just gorgeous! The wines are delicious & award winning. Very flavorful & smooth. The food is outstanding with a wonderful variety of fresh local dishes. Service and staff are outstanding & all staff are very friendly & attentive. And especially a big kudos to Shawn— great service! Highly recommend Riverbank Estate.

S Mason

Excellent friendly service, great perfectly cooked food with an awesome back drop to relax and sip away on the Prosecco. Would recommended for a great mid day dining experience!

Louise Bonser

So amazing, thankyou to all the staff for mothers day lunch, good value for a 3 course meal and music, I even got a free gift box and when I finally opened it I had some beautiful earrings, fantastic view and even had some fun things for children to do we would definately come again and recommend this place. ????

Wayne Gipson

Food 10/10 Service staff 3/10 Friendly staff but very disorganised with poor attention to detail. Food is superb though and worth a visit.

Megsie W

Amazing lunch for my son’s Birthday! Exceptional lobster - highly recommend! Thank you so much for a highly memorable occasion! Next time I’m coming for that cheeky crab! ????

Katharine Rea

Thank you for a beautiful lunch Patrick was the one who made the day

Tana

We had our wedding at Riverbank Estate on 15.10.21... and it was perfect! I'm not sure how many people can say that looking back, but we honestly would not change a thing. In the lead up to the wedding, Laura and Eric were so reasonable with any requests that we had and listened to any concerns (of which there were few). They went out of their way to look after us with a number of requests that we had. The staff at the venue were always so kind, relatable and helpful whenever we came to the venue. The food was amazing! We had a cocktail style wedding, so weren't able to try the food beforehand (except some items at expos)... if you're in the same boat as us, don't worry about this in the slightest. Every single piece was so good and our guests commented on how great it was! There was also a great selection of drinks, and the wines are great (obviously)! Finally, massive thanks to Laura. On the day, we really appreciate her discretely checking in with us, sneaking us some food if it looked like we were busy, if our drinks were empty bringing us a new one, and if there was any wedding related info... sorting out anything that may have become an issue, bringing us solutions instead of bringing us a possible problem. The staff just know how to do weddings and do them well. Honestly, can't say enough how happy we are that we got married here.

Peter D'Cress

Such an excellent winery & restaurant. Waitress was very attentive & knowledgeable. Food didn’t take long to come out & was very tasty. I’ll definitely come back!!

Brooke Dickinson

Always a treat going to Riverbank. Thanks to Eric and his staff for providing an awesome setup for our large group. Food, wine, and service are always top notch! We’ll be back! :)

Michelle Stone

Our group of 8 had a fantastic Sunday long lunch. Highly recommend the rib eye with the award winning Tempranillo. Alex and his team deliver a great show on the floor and through to the kitchen. Terrific venue and great fun.

J C

Experienced a beautiful lunch at Riverbank. The staff were friendly and highly organised. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Great place for families, dates and events. Highly recommend visiting Riverbank.

Noelene Muir

We purchased a groupon voucher for lunch at this place. The manager wasn't dressed very nicely and was doing paperwork etc at the table closest to the door which looked untidy and unprofessional. We asked to sit inside because we had a small baby with us and it was quite warm outside. The manager seemed annoyed at our request even though all the tables inside were available. Upon ordering the pear cider we were told it was unavailable, yet no alternative was offered. We asked about the apple cider and the staff member was unable to describe and sell the companys own product which was disappointing. The entrees were a share plate for two - yet they had ONE cracker to somehow "share" and half the plate was stuff from jars at the supermarket. The beef was good but not enough to save the dish. We all ordered the same main yet it took over half an hour to arrive once we'd finished our entree. The pork belly was dry and not very tasty and the parsnip was overcooked. We also noticed a couple come through to assess the venue for a wedding and you could tell there weren't impressed with the service they received for their viewing. The general lack of regard by staff for their patrons was appalling. Overall a very disappointing outing - thank god we had a groupon voucher and didn't pay full price for this sorry experience.

Taleah Ray

We went to Riverbank for the first time last week and we very impressed with the whole experience. The scenery over looking the vineyard's was very relaxing and the food was wonderful. The staff were very friendly but not overpowering and the selection of wines we had were very nice. Would highly recommend for a quiet meal or a function in the beautiful grassed area.

Antonietta Adley

Beautiful gem in the valley, absolutely amazing food, stunning presentation, great wines, the friendliest staff. Highly recommend this place my favourite restaurant and winery in the valley

Michelle Parker

For Malbec lovers you must try theRiverbank Estate Rebellious 2019 Malbec… beautiful rich dark fruit flavours and delicious aroma.. great way to kick off my 10th wedding anniversary celebrations

gabby bontempo

Thanks to all the staff at Riverbank Estate Winery. Spiderman and I had a lovely lunch! Great food , excellent service and beautiful scenery! We will definitely be back!

John Ozich

We had lunch last weekend. The food and service was first class. We had the dry aged steak and it was the best steak we've had in Australia! The team made us feel special and the food was outstanding. We will definetley visit again.

Sharon Hadfield

Very nice lunch today, the octopus was yummy and my husband enjoyed the pork belly also!

Nick Di Dio

Had an amazing day here! We were invited by our friends to come and celebrate their son’s 2nd birthday. I must say the venue and the views of the winery were absolutely stunning. There was live music, plenty of entertainment for the youngsters to play with such as farm animals and garden games and plenty of space for them to run around. I liked the fact that this was outside, separated from the restaurant. Service was fast and friendly, always replenishing our table and making sure we had enough water in the hot sun. Definitely come back again with friends and family.

Charday Devlin

A very innovative menu that I would be keen to go back to just to try some other things on there. The food was amazing and I would classify it as fine dining but it was reasonably priced. It’s clear they have a very good chef in the kitchen. I personally would rate their food on the same level or better then Sandalford and Mandoon. However I can see why there are so many bad reviews on here re service. The staff were very disorganised I.e. we had a different waiter/waitress every time some one came to the table, at the bar the guy pulled out 5 dirty wine glasses before he could give us 2 clean ones, they couldn’t find the EFTPOS machine, the wine I wanted to order had just been put in the fridge and wasn’t cold, the staff were constantly asking each other questions because they didn’t seem to know what was going on. I would have still given 5 stars because the staff were all quite lovely but dessert took 40min after we ordered. I hope that next time we go back the staff are better organised.

Natalie Gaitan

Lovely views, meat to match! Wonderful friendly staff ????????

F45 Training Osborne Park

Amazing spot for a bottle of wine with a view and picnic blanket. Dry aged steak was perfect. Will be back.

Nelly Tankov

Took the wife for a midweek lunch. Greeted with a warm welcome from one of the kind pleasant staff. Seated outside on the veranda which is enclosed with clear blinds to look out over the vineyards & a warm heater above us. Being a cold winter’s day we were comfortably warm during our stay. Beautiful sparkling water was gotten & with a large drinks list apart from obviously the extensive wine list to chose from we were happy. Ordered a chief plater for two & everything was scrumptious & good portions of prosciutto, ham, olives, chorizo with two small soups, arancini’s & scallops & four slices of sourdough bread. Everything was devoured on that plate. Main meals….Wife had the Pork Belly & said it was delicious & I could hear the crackle so I knew she would be happy with it. I had the Salmon with char grilled capsicum & purple cauliflower. Nice crispy skin on salmon & beautifully cooked. Wife had an affogato which came out deconstructed (fancy) & I had the apple & berry crumble with one of the nicest vanilla ice cream I have tasted. All washed down with apple cider & a beer (or two). Prices well, especially for the quality of food & service.

Tim Black

We came here for Christmas lunch. Absolutely AMAZING. Food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Lily was so friendly and helpful. It was 40 degrees and she was stuck wearing a mask! (I don’t know that I would have been so friendly!!) Riverbank NEVER fails to disappoint. We love coming here and will be back for 2022! Thanks guys.

Janelle Green

As visitors from Adelaide, our expectations of visiting the Swan Valley at a winery with a beautiful aspect were quite high. However on arrival, and politely asking for a wine tasting (at a cellar door) we were bluntly advised by the female bartender that the winery is too busy on Sundays for tastings..but maybe we could do a couple. She gave a sigh at each pouring and we were made to feel we were asking far too much! (At a cellar door!). After eating lunch, we attempted another tasting and was completely and totally ignored. The same bartender made herself look way too busy. The word disappointing is the best way to describe our experience. If it wasn't for our amazing waitress, it would have been the worst winery we went to. The steaks were full of fat also and not worth the exorbitant price they charged!

Poor staff, although polite we weren't treated with as much respect as the older patrons. Asked to move half way through a ridiculously over priced meal. Food was edible, but not great... and way too overpriced. Nice views though, happy with the photo opportunities which is why the generous two stars.

Amanda Kasten-Lee

Incredibly delicious Gnocchi with porcini mushroom. The staff were support friendly. Great date day lunch destination. ????

Jaimi Parker

A pretty venue. The service was lovely. A friendly character who took our orders and delivered food in a reasonable time frame. The food was reasonable, but nothing to rave about as far as flavour goes. It was portion sizes that overwhelmingly disappointed. Scallops at $14/ Scallop about $40 a head and leaving hungry. Afraid I couldn't recommend the dining experience.

I never write reviews for places even if they're bad but my experience here was just the worse. When we arrived, we were told that our entrees are being made. As we had a set menu and only one entrée was available. We sat at our table and ordered wine which on its own took about 15 minutes to arrive at the table. A different server came to the table and took our Mains order, We then waited an hour (from walking in and being told our entrees are being prepared) and about 45 minutes (after we got our mains order taken) for said entrees to arrive even after going up twice and asking where it was. We had gotten fed up and as we were going to leave were told by one of the servers that the entrees are ready, My mother said that we had been waiting an hour, only to be called out from across the restaurant by who I assume was the manager that it "wasn't an hour" and talking back to my mum. Very Rude. Had evidence to show that we were waiting for said time but very unprofessional calling out like that. Our main server was great though. Don't know what his name was but was very nice and caring the whole time, and was being barked at by the manager the entire time. The other server that was on had major RBF and even when trying to talk to her seemed bored and uninterested to be at work. It's disappointing to see that people have had similar problems, only to be ignored by management not replying to their reviews but replying to reviews that give them 4+ Stars. Would not go back here at all and will definitely advise friends not to go here unless you wont slow and rude service. I also hope that assumed manager sitting on her laptop all shift is reading this and know to get an attitude check and not be so rude to customers. Even asked the server if you could come to the table to talk and was not even bothered to come by. The one star is for the excellent server who had to be in the middle of all of this.

Sam Napier

Elegant and relaxed venue, beautiful food and wine, and wonderful service. Thanks for looking after us so well Peggy.

Pauline Drew

Highly recommended! Gorgeous views, food & of course wine. Lindsay & the team also offer amazing customer service. A must try!

David Gipson

We love coming to Riverbank Estate Winery for a lovely glass of wine, breath taking views and delightful food. The staff are friendly and attentive ????

James Winstanley

Beautiful lunch fantastic staff Cat was great friendly and helpful , Patrick was extremely nice great time thanks to you both

steven sanderson

Lunch was fabulous. Our waitress Peggy was extremely attentive - made for a lovely day out !

Glen Fletcher

Dropped in there yesterday and met up with the proprietor Eric and his beautiful family the hospitality was first class the wines were magnificent and the winery and restaurant have undergone some huge improvements since the last time we visited. Try the wood fired pizzas they were fantastic and cooked by a genuine Italian Pizza chef. We would definitely recommend dropping in and checking things out.

chloe shu yu

$28 for plastic bowl (small) food very average. Drinks overcharged. It might be xmas but not a donation to their future.try elsewhere.

Shey Lowe

Need names for their food, good options options children and beverages were divine, but the service was slow and higher staff were rude but the servers/waitress/waiters were so lovely, advice for whoever runs the place overbook if you don't have the staff for it. Staff were obviously stressed and people there got sour quickly since being served was waiting up to an hour or 2. But thing that holds it all together is how lovely the staff was, applaud to you guys. Wouldn't be able to handle it <3

Renae Carroll

Amazing views, fabulous wine, wonderful food, highly recommend, our celebration was for the birthday girl

Andrew K

Dry age rib eye $55. 10mm thick and over cooked, Definitely NO rib eye. The mushroom was the highlight on the plate. The cray was $69 and under cooked. Hopefully this is not the norm. ☹☹

Aaron Coochiroff

Came here as part of the Swan Valley wedding open day, they were by far one of the most well set up and switched on venues, so we had lunch there and were not disappointed. Portions were huge, we had chicken liver pate and truffled mushrooms to start, pork belly and steak for mains. It was all perfectly cooked, and the staff could not have been better - friendly, attentive, always around in case you needed something, and they remembered that we'd been before. We felt welcome. It wasn't a cheap meal, but considering what we had and the huge portions it was good value and we will definitely be back. I don't mind paying for something if it's good quality, I've had meals in Perth that cost more and weren't as good. The raspberry sorbet is absolutely amazing.

Analiese Sidhu

We held our wedding at RiverBank Estate, a simply beautiful venue with a lovely view looking out over the vines towards Woodbridge House. We had so many compliments from our guests about the delicious food and wine (especially the vermentino!), the fun & attentive staff and how beautiful the venue was. If you're looking for a winery with both a great indoor & outdoor space that's close to Perth then RiverBank is a great spot.

Samantha Carroll

An amazing location with wonderful attentive staff. The perfect spot for any special occasion or even just wine tasting. Mother’s day breakfast was wonderful this morning . Kid friendly as well. Highly recommend it. Thank you Eric Lembo, family and Team!

Ben Crisp

I can only confirm what others have already outlined here. There is a lack in service and the food is overpriced. To be fair, not everything was bad there, as it is a nice place. Some of the food which was served was very good ( Barramundi) , however our steaks were, to describe it gently, not enjoyable at all. I trust that it is a fair to expect to get a perfectly cooked piece of meat if this is subject to a price tag of $58 ! Both steaks which were suppose to be medium/rare were far overcooked. When being asked if everything is fine, I advised the waitress that the steaks are not enjoyable. She assured me that she would rectify the problem, however she disappeared and never came back to our table. The $460 bill left a sour taste.

Rebecca Hinsley

Sunday lunch at Riverbank. Amazing experience, their own brand Prosecceo while reading the menu, delish. Then decided to share as the menu was so good. Amazing food. Shared Tiramisu to finish. Staff only too happy toenable this. Perfect weather underneath the verandah with the most fabulous friends.

Leon Devereux

Having been here several times ha ha we can't find anything not to love about Riverbank Estate. The service is spot on the wine is great the sparkling is amazing. The food is something to be experienced. Having tried everything it can't be faulted .????????????????????

jasmine praizelin

We emailed last minute to get a booking and they got back to us really quickly with a cancellation. Food and wine were delicious. The staff who serviced us were also fantastic

Elaine Lamond

We enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Riverbank. All 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals with dessert. Wonderful friendly staff. Shawn helped us with wine tasting and friendly service. Will be back.

Helen Kuziela

What an amazing food they have! Everything was just perfect food and service! All the stuffs will make you feel like your at home. ????Everytime I came here with my friends they go beyond and above. Thank you ????

Ian Schaffa

Our waiter was really friendly and helpful, food was amazing!! We will be back!!!

Ben Schiller

Very disappointed went in on Thursday for lunch restaurant was only half full. We got seated outside and ordered sparkling water. Then we sat and waited and waited and waited total 45 min no one took our order. So left. Put more staff on. Disappointed.

Rebecca Hutton

If you're looking for a wonderful place to eat amazing food and drink delicious wine, I would highly recommend Riverbank Estate! We had the seafood platter (seriously the best in Perth), Wagyu Sirloin and Ribeye which were all absolutely delicious and high quality. Fantastic wine and love the crystal glassware. Thank you Laura, Kat and Peggy for your impeccable service.

Steve D

Good service, great food, tarimusi dessert was to die for. Go with an empty stomach. Absolutely loved everything about Riverbank Estate

Alan Hart

We bought a Scoopon voucher for 2 at the Riverbank Estate. This included a two course winery lunch; both my partner and I were blown away by not only the quality of wine, but also the quality of food and service. We definitely intend to return in the summer and truely enjoy this beautiful little gem in the swan valley to its full potential.

Max Hughes

Fantastic food and great service. I especially loved the pork belly!

Ruben Ruiz

Went to the Riverbank Estate Winery for the Italian Street Food Family Day on Sunday and it was such an amazing day. It was so comfortable, friendly and the service was up to such a high standard. Our children had a wonderful time. It was also pet friendly so will bring our puppy for the next one.

kris jacobs

Went there on the weekend for lunch and it was one of our worst lunch we had in a long time. We paid top dollar for the meat and it was so tough and over cooked that we couldn't eat it and left the whole meat.they still charged us for the meat and took 1 large and 1 x small beer of the bill but it would have been nice to remove the steak at 60 $ instead. We def won't go back or recommend to our friends.

Jillian Loughridge

Staff were very friendly, beautiful area. Unfortunately food took 1hr 45min to arrive. Thought it was extremely overpriced at $39 for 2 small pieces of market fish and 2 broccolini. Left feeling ripped off and hungry. Would not go back.

Lauren Hemmett.

Elegance, sophistication, tranquility and beauty. I lifted my high quality glass of san Pellegrino sparkling water, which was an option of many, as we sat with a view over the river and vineyards. The staff are highly trained and friendly and happy to discuss the ins and outs of all menu options. Our coffee mugs and side plates are of the highest quality Churchill stoneware. The pouring rain countrified our warmly heated enclosure as it hit the tin roof and really made me think about how lucky we are to be able to enjoy such situations. Lindsay and her staff made our stay phenomenal, enjoyable and wishing we didn’t live 1000km away. Absolutely 5 star pick.

Nantha Lingam

One of our favourite local winery with excellent food and wine. Having lunch and overlooking the vineyard make you feel you are on holiday ???? highly recommended.

Alyssa Nguyen

Lovely vibe, friendly team- especially Laura!

Brandi House

Amazing service from Peggy and the manager throughout our lunch. The food was delicious, fresh and very well presented. Wines are beautiful as well as the scenery!

R W

2009 Riverbank Riesling - what a cracker! Recently our patience was rewarded when we opened a bottle of the Riverbank 2009 Riesling which we'd cellared for the last 10 years in our wine fridge. The wine had transformed into a beautiful luscious liquid that's hard to put words to but we will definitely be aging our Rieslings more often if this is anything to go by! Great job Riverbank!

Toni Vidler

Thankyou Kat for your amazing knowledge of wine and your sassy sense of humour. The cheeses went beautiful with the wines you selected. What a great atmosphere. Come on down to for a fantastic time.....by the way did I mention the view!!

Tenita

Love this Lovely Winery.. Food and service is always excellent with very friendly accomodating staff.. Thank you for a lovely lunch today thoroughly enjoyed our food and wine selection.

michelle Bratworth

We went for lunch this weekend, beautiful setting but very over priced. Duck with Gnocchi came with four tiny pieces of Gnocchi. Wouldn't go back , I dont believe you have to spend another ten dollars for vegies to make a complete meal.

Manuel Mgr

Sunday Italian Street Food... The platter sounded amazing but was all pretty tasteless. Best thing was the pumkin we ordered a la carte, but way over priced at $26 for 3 rounds of pumpkin with corn and peas (I don't think there was whipped fetta). No band as advertised which would have been fun, and the 'giant games' (plural) was just one set of jenga. But a nice location and relaxed atmosphere.

tracey taingahue

Staff were super friendly, hence the two stars. But... The food was way too over priced for the portion sizes and the wait for our entree of garlic bread was way too long. Ravioli was $28 and only got 4 raviolis with mounds of rocket on top. Wine was terrible although we only tried one so cannot speak for all. Drove 40 mins to get here expecting great things. One word, disappointed

Eilidh Clark

Beautiful location that always has great food and great service. Would highly recommend for a Sunday lunch in the valley!

Sarah Griffiths

Great setting and location, a little on the pricey side, but fantastic food and service. Was open on a public holiday which was very nice, would recommend.

Brent Walker

We recently celebrated a birthday lunch here. It is in beautiful setting with indoor & outdoor dining overlooking the vineyards. Staff are very helpful & knowledgeable. Food is very fresh - they have their own fresh seafood tanks & dry aging meat. We enjoyed selections from the shared plate menu- would definitely recommend. We will be back!

Rochelle Bradley

Lovely venue..the wedding was beautiful, setting was stunning and the food was lovely

Manis Lamond

Upon arrival, we were welcomed by Eric himself and seated promptly, even though it was a last minute booking. It was such a perfect day out to be lunching. The setting was picturesque. The old pick-up truck had been decorated with flowers on the tray, and the entertainment of a softly and gently spoken young lady with her guitar and singing voice, set us up for a few hours of "Chillaxing", with the aid of refreshing locally brewed beers and ciders, and award winning wines. The Italian street food, of which we tried all the items on the menu, was typical of rustic spring flavours, of season vegetables and local proteins. DE...LISH!! We loved it. Thank you Rivebank for a sensational experience.

Michael S

A wonderful lunch for our 10year wedding anniversary. Such a beautiful setting and the scallops and pork belly were absolutely divine.

Vicki Steckis

What a stunning first stop on ‘The Cheers Squad’ Swan Valley wine tour last weekend! Ellie and the team at Riverbank Estate made us feel very welcome, and their sit down wine tasting was unexpected, but incredible with a great selection of wines on offer. Plus the stunning scenery and view of the vineyards was an added bonus! It's 5 stars for Riverbank Estate and I will definitely be visiting again very soon! Thanks again Ellie and team for a fantastic visit.

Amina Schipp

How to ruin a business, raw food, odd sized portions, more raw food and staff only prepared to "let the manager know". SORRY but that is of little consequence to a birthday treat. If this is your new standard, then don't bother. Oh and the tasting plate is supposed to show the quality of the food, it did today $45 worth of less than mediocre product.

Wei Liang Teh

Fantastic wine experience, our waitress, Kat was amazing. We may have coerced her into joining us on the wine tour ???? the second red wine Malbec was great. Thankyou so much for an awesome morning ♥️

alan davison

Saturday lunch for 2 on 14 August 2021, cold day so sat inside alfresco, very cosy, had a wedding on later so needed to be out by 3:00pm, but food arrived timely and was delicious, had smoked estate olives and grilled octopus - wow!! So tasty and excellently presented. Beer was great, also enjoyed tasting 2019 Rebellious Verdelho . Wild fish of the day tasted sooooo fresh with excellent colour-coordinated vege/condiment accompaniments - Chef has an obvious great flair for colours. Red wine tasting at the table, had to choose so eventually selected 2018 BDX+Tempranilllo -OMG very nice for our palates. So nice to be recognised by catering staff who are always friendly and accommodating every time we visit. We love coming back to Riverbank Estate for great food and wine, fantastic asset in the Swan Valley. Marketing is not over the top but has attracted us every time with great deals and menu selections. Well done Riverbank Estate, with your continual changing menu and upmarket attractions, we will certainly be back soon, yay!!

Matt Stracey

Had a wonderful experience. Greeted so warmly and were so impressed by the quality of food and the surrounding grounds.

Paula Caplin

The wine here is great! Had trouble deciding on which one we would have for lunch as they were all so good. Staff were lovely and checked on us regularly and the food was definitely worth the dollars. All up a great lunch out for me and my wife.

Teena Rand

Delicious food and good knowledge of the wines and pairing with the foods. Great service and will definitely be back soon

Michelle Haines

Thoroughly enjoyed. Great food complemented by friendly service and excellent wine!

Sian Naylor

We decided to return to riverbank for lunch today as we have been here many times and it is always a great meal, we got the crab for 2 and my god, the serving was enormous, but quantity did not affect quality it was amazing also for once a restaurant gives you all the necessary cutlery to crack the shell and reach in, also th presentation is top notch. We also got the pork belly which I must say had some very delicate flavours, it tasted amazing and was cooked to perfection. To finish I had the chocolate dome which was sheer creativity and tasted amazing and was stunning to look at, a photo of the desert will accompany the rest disappeared to fast. I have to mention the wine also. You can’t go wrong. All around I can’t recommend the riverbank enough.

Scott B

Great location and atmosphere, however given the amount of reviews on the lesser standard of service you would think the penny would drop and someone would address and solve the issue. Upon being seated, no one attended to us, not to take our drink order, not to take our food order, not to take our desserts order, we continually had to flag down and stop staff as they walked by. Interesting as they had enough staff on duty, but no one proactive enough to actually approach us and initiate what would normally be expected of wait staff. There was one lady with red hair who was quite helpful so thank you to her.

dana parkin

Fantastic location in the Swan Valley. Great atmosphere, outstanding customer service and the food was absolutely amazing. 1st class. The wines were very nice and will definitely return again

Tony Blade

We were part of a group of 20... we arrived early to an empty restaurant. There were two different menus on the table & nobody seemed to know which we we could order from... that got sorted, eventually, but it didn’t get better. Two choices for lunch - the first being pork belly which comprised two very small pieces of very dry pork belly about the size of a $.50 piece, a very nicely cooked strip of parsnip & a tiny piece of potato! The other was a very bland and uninspiring pasta… About the cheapest & easiest meal you can serve is pasta! They were either very unprepared or they need some training before they accept bookings for more than one larger table at a time! An older lady came on duty and the service improved from there on but we had to keep following up, and service was very slow. In their defence they did get busy, but that’s a matter of managing their bookings to progress the orders through the kitchen in an orderly manner. In addition our lunch was to include a wine tasting and whilst their wines are ‘okay’, the serves were ridiculously tiny and again would not inspire anyone to purchase the wines, simply because there wasn’t an adequate amount to actually ‘taste’ the wine! Overall an uninspiring experience that certainly wouldn’t encourage any of our group to revisit!

Michael Blakemore

Our office was lucky enough to have our bosses wine and dine us at Riverbank for our EOFY celebration. We started off with some wine testing at our table which was a great way to kick start our lunch. Food was delicious, they offered some great Vegan options. The steaks were also a hit! It was a cool winter afternoon, the staff ensured we stayed warm by providing blankets and putting down the blinds for us. We left with a bunch of our favourite wine from the tastings. Great afternoon – we will be back.

Kain Graham

The wine and the venue were terrific, really tasty high quality wine and a beautiful location. The woman who was serving us the wine however really wasn't all that interested and didnt seem able or willing to answer any questions about it. This was a shame and detracted from the otherwise lovely venue. I really reccomend it for the wine, we didn't eat there so cannot comment on the food. But the menu looks nice and the setting is gorgeous.

Patricia Cross

Beautiful venue and atmosphere. We went on a busy Sunday afternoon. The food was a mixed bag, kangaroo fillet was delicious but the fries were stale and the pork belly was chewy. Service was very disappointing. We were served by a man who was very flustered with the busy day. I appreciate that this is difficult, but the attitude and rudeness needs to be toned down! Our order was also taken incorrectly, and when we questioned it, the wait staff frowned and tried to deny taking our order incorrectly. The food also took nearly 90 minutes to arrive. When we mentioned this, the wait staff simply said that they were busy and as we had no pre booking, had already tried their best to accommodate us and therefore the food was slow. Will not be back.

Janelle Passeri

Great service and delicious food. Our waitress Jo was extremely helpful and found a way for by husband to have a meal that was no longer available that day

Lou Margaret Hennessy

We booked Riverbank Estate for a private function, after work for 80 plus guests. Our site meeting to discuss options with the events team gave us great confidence that we were dealing with experts. The event seamless we had all external providers coordinated with the events team the presentation was first class. The food was so well received it just kept on coming the bar was well staffed, they even organised the background acoustic band. I would highly recommend the venue ( great views and history) and the staff for your special function. The feedback from our guest was fantastic we will be back in the future, great job all the staff at Riverbank Estate Winery.

Fermz D

We had a fantastic view over the vineyard and the service was very attentive, the gnocchi was to die for and the special of the day was some beautifully cooked Lamb cutlets , a couple of nice glasses of wine and good company meant a pleasant afternoon. Can't wait to return.

Meech Meech

Very disappointing experience for lunch. No one took our order for lunch, when we did order it took over an hour, we didn't receive an apology, the platter for two was very average and not worth the price. The owner (I think) - a lady with blonde hair, was very rude and unfriendly, the cellar door staff didn't explain any of the wines when we did our tasting. We won't be coming back.

Safari Manzanillo

Great food, wine and service. Highly recommend the barrata and eggplant and zucchini slice.

Renya Garratt

Wonderful service and delicious wine tastings. Got 6 bottles and can’t wait to have them with a yummy meal or share with friends. The Malbec is particularly delicious. Do yourself a favour and visit Riverbank estate.

Kay Tee

I have been going to this restaurant for years and I have to say I will not be returning. Yes they have a magnificent view but the food has gone downhill quite considerably. You can just tell that there is no love and care in the kitchen at all as it reflects on the plate. I also really question now, do the staff really care whether they have customers there or not. Very disappointed as this was the place are used to enjoy.

Adam

Great food and service! Thank you to our waitress Bev for her attentiveness and friendly demeanor!

Carrie Saunders

Absolutely amazing service, food and wine in a stunning location. I couldn’t fault anything. Loved the live music which just added to the amazing atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back very soon.

Sandra Song

Great menu, fun atmosphere and wonderful service.

Trina Lou

Visited Riverbank Winery today. The location is beautiful the staff really accomodating, our waitress Peggy was a real gem. Our lunch consisted of a selection of breads served with warm olives roast garlic and butter, perfectly cooked scallops poached tomatoes and grilled vegetable cake. The only dish I didn’t particularly enjoy was the poached tomatoes which I thought would be warm. The Riverbank Prosecco was lovely, I wish I’d brought a bottle home, maybe a good excuse to revisit which I definitely will.

Annie Neil

My birthday lunch was absolutely fabulous. The food was amazing ! Such great value. The sharing platter for entree was excellent and then the mains were lovely - I had the pork belly which was the best I've had in a long time. Thanks for a lovely afternoon x

Nutgitta Ewan

Had an amazing lunch with 3 of my favourite girlfriends, food was divine and service exemplary. Venue was beautiful will definitely go again. Thank you to my son and daughter-in-law who treated us x

Stephen Carter

Highly recommended this little gem, staff so friendly and helpful. Set in a beautiful relaxed setting looking out to the vineyards, had spectacular meal which I couldn't fault. Wine was spot on and of course had to buy a bottle or two - we will be back thank you for a great lunch.

narri more

Had the pleasure of enjoying a beautiful day in the Valley and the Riverbank luncheon experience didn't disappoint. Gorgeous setting, a delicious lunch enhanced by very knowledgeable and attentive staff.Will be spreading the message. Must add Riverbank to your list of places to visit.

Steven Papalazaros

This place was amazing! The view is everything the swan valley represents! The live music, relaxed atmosphere is perfect for any occasion and kids are so welcomed! My daughter was sliding down the banks on a cardboard box! A dream for children of any age. Our waitress Jo was amazing so professional yet we left feeling like we had made a friend. The wine was probarly the nicest ive had and the food was presented in a way that make your jaw drop and equally as nice tasting. Thank you so much Jo and to the kitchen crew and staff it was amazing! I definitely would recommended this place for families, couples and corporate functions.

Clint Harvey

Came here for lunch with some friends. Everyone seemed to really enjoy their food. We got to sit outside and had a lovely view overlooking the vineyards. Service was good without being amazing. Would certainly recommend.

Dan Lines

It's always a lovely experience here. Wine tasting, great views some lovely meals.

Cats Mother

As an ex athlete, I’ve travelled the world and have visited many wineries and restaurants. I must say that Riverbank estate winery is one of the best I’ve been to. The food was excellent, the staff was great and the owner Eric was very hospitable. He was very welcoming and it was an overall excellent experience.

Richard

We went here for lunch in December. They were relatively busy but maybe only half full. Waited what seemed like was forever just for our drinks! I understand a wait for food if you are busy but even then it would nice to be told sorry we are busy and there will be a slight delay. I think we waited around half an hour just for a drink. Starters and mains were a long wait too. But the worst thing was the beetroot risotto! Really gluggy, full of oil & all of the goat cheese melted before it arrived. I tried to eat it but couldn’t! Luckily we were offered not to pay for that however the rest of the meal was very overpriced for the standard of it and the waiting time was ridiculous. Definitely won’t be back.

Peter Smartt

We would like to thank the staff & the chef at the riverbank for the amazing Christmas lunch food was delicious service by Lilly was excellent & so friendly & the way Lilly look after our grandkids was beautiful thank you again for an amazing Christmas lunch ????????????????

Claire Cope

A glorious juxtaposition of inner city restaurant, Swan Valley views and country hospitality. We had the bread, served fresh from the oven with homemade butter and garlic confit, and the gnocchi, which was everything a gnocchi should be and more. We will be back, probably soon.

Vanessa Shelton

The food was exceptional and isn't as expensive as the other wineries. Service was also excellent as always. Will definitely be back again!

Corina Papalazaros

The meals were delicious and the steak rare as ordered. The cheese board was fantastic, with a honey bowl an awesome surprise. The musician was cool, funny, and memorable

Chris Bishop

We had a fabulous lunch here! The gnocchi was stunning and the pork belly superb. Paired with a lovely Chardonnay and a Tempranillo. Perfect! And a lovely outlook and views. A great venue !! Wonderful service from Peggy and Bev!!

Boon How Go

We love it here! Have been here many times and the food, wine and service is always a 10/10. Lovely views and good vegan options on the menu

Demiilee Smith

I love this place, been there quite a few times. Great view, nice beer and food. Highly recommend the pork belly. It's a 'melts in your mouth' experience.

Lynnie Butler

A lovely lunch with great service, food and wine. A stand out was a variety of wines you wouldn't expect. Definitely come here again and recommend.

Felicia McStravick

My partner and I attended the valentine's day dinner at riverbank estate and want to pass on our complements to the chef/s and team. The food, wine and atmosphere was amazing. We ran into friends on the night who said the exact same thing. We had a great night and can't wait to go back.

Adrian Khalil

This is the place to come for an excellent dining experience Bev, our host, was friendly and attentive. Superb casual dining in the Swan Valley!
