a plate of food and a drink
Bill B.

Always a pleasant and lively atmosphere, the service staff is always welcoming. Yes the burgers and such are great but the English and Indian food is beyond delicious. Great selection of beers, ciders & fantastic food has me wishing I had more than one day off. I cannot recommend Riverside Bar enough. It's everything you can want in a local bar/restaurant and more.

Cheese pizza.
Stephanie L.

Typical greasy bar food, and was exactly what we were expecting. The only thing I would change is adding some sort of sauce to the cheese steak wrap because it was a little dry with the bread. Other than that, everything was good. Our waitress, who was also the bartender, was the sweetest! Probably the cleanest bar I have ever been in.

Menu

Update on 2-25-20 While this place is still pretty good, the menu has changed to a "British style" as they call it. They used to have cheap food but now it's on par price wise with most other middle of the road places in town. I didn't see anymore dollar beer specials like before. Beers are priced at $2.50 for bud, bud light, coors, etc. imports such as Modelo, Corona, etc were $3.00. Ciders and a few imports were $3.99. Drafts were all $4.00. No domestics on draft that I saw but lots of good local brews and a few other well know taps. They have a full liquor bar now. It's limited on brands and I'm unsure if of what training the bartenders have so time will tell on mixed drinks. The food was still good but not as good as the amount of money they ask for it. It's still a dive bar, which is my preferred type of bar and the only true dive bar in this town. The bartenders are very friendly and don't forget your name. The crowd is still a mix of locals and tourist with a heavy lean on local. I still love the place. I just don't care for the new menu. Knowing the employees and owners they will adjust based on demand.

Chicken curry!!

Not long ago, Brevard was inundated with Mexican restaurants. Some were good, but most had the…read moreunfortunate reality of being staffed by chauvinistic bilingual waiters who made crude, sexual comments about unsuspecting patrons. What I like about Plaza Garabalbi is the family atmosphere. The owner will come to your table and ask about your day with genuine interest. The wait staff is always friendly and attentive. When I was dressed up for a job interview once, my cashier gave me a free peppermint patty for luck. Little things like that mean a lot. I have never had to wait for a table no matter what time of day or how busy they were and the food has always been excellent. The decor is standard (paintings of rural Hispanic life, sombreros, mexican flags, futbol on the wide screens) and the expected mariachi music plays, but I enjoy the familiarity and comfort of PG. They just added some intricate carved wood tables to the bar dining area, so that will definitely set them further apart from the rest of the pack. Sink your teeth into a chicken - chorizo platter and feel like you are dining in a home away from home just north of the Southernmost border. It may not be your idea of fine Mexican dining, but everything about PG is just fine with me.

Four of us met up here for lunch and we all had Lunch Specials . Everything was great. They have a…read morevery extended Salsa bar with quite a few salsas and Pico De Gallo.

Our waiter was a young man they was very attentive and polite. I noticed him keeping an eye open on almost his tables .

For dinner I had the southwest blackened chicken Cobb salad which was very good as well. Prices were a little up there, but not too crazy. Service was a little slow (they were pretty busy at the time we went) but the server was well educated on the menu. The restaurant was nicely appointed, comfortable and they have a separate room for their bar.

I called over to the Square Root to check the kitchen timing (it was getting on 8) and all was well. We managed a seat at the bar and this was perfect for us. We chatted a bit with the servers, who were amazing. There is a ton enjoyment for the job and the space going on here. We also met some semi-locals who were awesome. Shout out to "Kendall-Jackson"! The menu is full of local ingredients and plenty of temptations. The specials were even more tempting and we grabbed oysters to kick it off. The pepper/spicy mignonette is so so good. It's just the right mix of classic and new. I didn't need the other sauce, especially with just 6 oysters. I eyed the yellowtail snapper (snapper, right? def not tuna) special, but opted for the Korean chicken sandwich. Quite good! I could have used a stronger flavor from the kimchi and, frankly, less of a mess, but the cook was just right, the flavor profiles were excellent, and the portion was plenty. A really good sandwich! I had the sweet potato chips as my side and I can see why they are popular. We kept the leftover sauces from the oysters just so I could dip my chips. Good call! She Said: I'd like to start by complimenting the fantastic staff. They've obviously been here a while, and they're enthusiastic about this place. He Said covered the oysters (yum!) and the mignonette (double yum!), so I'll focus on the mushroom tart that I got as my meal. The rough puff was really done well, and the mushroom and goat cheese combo was terrific. I thought they would be inside the pastry, but I adapted. The whole dish was terrific, and though I thought it was too salty for me, I also know that I'm sensitive to salt. All in all, we will definitely be back! Potty Points: no trip to the potty for me on this one!
