    Sweet wantans with blueberry and ice cream
    Pedro C.

    Was amazed how all the food we tasted was so delicious! Never had sweet wantans before, didn't need ice cream but was well worth it! Definitely going back to try more. Best Asian food in deed!

    Soup and salad for a starter
    Amber B.

    The food was overall good! Service was fast and everyone was really friendly. The complimentary soup and salad is a great touch to the whole dining experience - this restaurant is a must try !

    Captured by the impressive-looking restaurant, we decided to stop in for a meal -- and we're glad we did. The place is nice and welcoming, with a warm vibe that makes you feel comfortable right away. We ordered several family-sized meals to share between six people, and the portions were perfect for sharing. RiverWok offers a mix of Korean, Japanese, and Chinese dishes, all served with soup and your choice of rice. We tried the Bulgogi, Pork Katsu, Beef & Broccoli, and Beijing-style Fish. Each dish had its own distinct flavor, and everything was fresh and well-prepared. The Bulgogi was especially tender and flavorful, while the Pork Katsu had a great crisp texture. The Beijing-style Fish was a pleasant surprise -- perfectly seasoned and flaky. Service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out promptly despite how busy it was. Overall, RiverWok is a great spot for anyone craving a variety of Asian dishes in a comfortable and inviting setting. It's definitely a place worth revisiting when in Pueblo. The Owner came out as a surprise and thanked us for choosing her restaurant to spend our last night in town. She was such a lovely lady with a strong love to provide a hot meal.

    See ya Riverwok...Hello Texas Roadhouse!!!

    My wife and I were excited to try this place on the last day of 2025. Sadly, our experience was less than stellar. The moment we sat down it took us about 10-15 minutes to get a drink. Not too bad but sitting at the bar it's usually faster especially when there's only three people at the bar. Me, wife, and another lone patron. Once we were served our two draft beers and we took our celebratory cheers we noticed our draft beers had a very gross taste. Like the taps were not clean our something. The beers had a moldy taste and smell. We were then given two bottled beers and those were good, however, you can tell the owner or bartender girl was annoyed with our request. We then ordered two appetizers. Egg rolls and the won tons. Those were ok but on the smaller side of appetizers but no biggie as we planned to order a dinner entree anyhow. So another 15-20 minutes go by. Our beers are now empty. Our water glasses empty. We're trying to make eye contact and get some customer service without being rude or obnoxious, so we can order another round and get our waters topped off but the owner/bartender girl never comes to our seats and she avoids any bit of communication with us. They were a little bit busy but no reason to have poor customer service and communication. Finally after 25-30 minutes we got our order taken but no drinks. So we're waiting for our food order and another 20-25 minutes go by but no food comes out. Everyone else is getting waited on but I think due to the beer issue it's like we're now unwanted as customers. 30 minutes go by and no food or drinks. It was at that time I wanted to cash out and nobody came to our seats. I walked out without paying as the entire experience was a mess. I've heard ok things about this place and sadly the customer service is awful and incompetent. We end up driving to Texas Roadhouse and within 20 minutes we had water, bread rolls, her plate she ordered, my 16oz steak ordered and a bag of peanuts, and excellent customer service. I try to support local businesses to help them thrive and try to avoid the corporate environment especially at that location because businesses tend to not stay a long time tbut sadly in this case the corporate system won. The Riverwok needs quite a few changes. Change out the taps and or clean them. Clean the bar area as it was a dirty mess and not very well maintained. Change the attitude of the bartender/owner. There's no reason to treat customers like that. I may give it another try during the week but last night for New Years was a disaster. I always pay good money for customer service and sadly they didn't meet my expectations which are usually pretty low. Give me cold beers, warm food, and a smile and that's all I need...Maybe next time Riverwok, but you all definitely need some changes!!! Goodbye Riverwok and hello Texas Roadhouse!!!

    This was probably the best experience I have had dinning out at a restaurant. Not only was the location beautiful, right on the river, but the restaurant itself was gorgeous as well. The service was incredible. I brought my service dog and he was welcomed with open arms. They allow all dogs in their outdoor seating. The food was so good and the drinks were beautiful. The most important part, everyone was so kind. We were constantly being checked on and greeted with a friendly face. We ordered fried rice. It wasn't ready when the rest of our food was so they gave us white rice to start, then fried rice when it was ready. Best part, they took the fried rice off of our bill. Lastly, they made an entire plate specially for my dog. No extra charge. It was a great experience. Will definitely be going back.

    The RiverWok has a beautiful location right by the river. The food was beautiful to look at and even better to eat! I love the creativity and innovation this restaurant has and hope to be back soon!

    For the flavor, I'd give it a good 3.5/5 stars. The flavor is definitely accustomed to the community here in Pueblo and it's unfortunate that we can't have a little bit more authenticity. The food could've been served with a banchan since it's Korean food. Service was good since it wasn't too busy during the lunchtime. It's a great spot to take someone on a date or a nice friendly lunch.

    Spiked white sangria with tequila, cherries, lemon and orange slices!

    Fantastic waiter!! Amazing spiked white sangria cocktail!!! Thank you Jujong for being so helpful and fun! I had a half order of Hong Kong chicken...chicken chunks with a crunchy, sticky glaze. Very tasty, but no sauce per se. Next time I'll try one of the Beijing sauce dishes. Salad with an in-house dressing and a salty miso soup were good! The restaurant is located on the river walk, bordered by trees adorned with strings of white lights. Romantic as dusk turns to night. I'd love it if the RiverWok added some low fat menu options with freshly sautéed vegetables (and sauce on the side). Then I could eat there and leave feeling healthy.

    The best Asian food in the city!! Excellent service and amazing fresh food!!!!! As a Korean I was craving Asian food and found this beautiful place. I've always been disappointed anytime I traveled to an area that did not have many Asian establishment. Riverwok is phenomenal! Must try and gorgeous ambience.

    There are much better Asian restaurants in town. Food is bland. Service is slow. They offer so much that they can't focus on one style.

    I'm of the firm opinion that the average rating for this place is the right rating. Very confused…read moreby the 4 and 5 star reviews and somewhat understanding of the 2 star ones. It is by far not the best mongolian grill I've been to -- but I mean, there aren't that many of these things around, are there? Let's take this chronologically. I was excited to discover that this place existed as we were driving north on 25 to Denver and happened to be passing Pueblo around lunchtime. The fact that it's super accessible from the highway made it ideal. When we walked in, I almost walked out. The entire restaurant smelled like bathroom. Literally like I had walked into a bathroom. I have to assume that this is unusual. I was surprised people were actively eating. We wandered over to the food/ingredients line to see if our noses would adapt and to check out the situation. The food looked good. All the vegetables looked fresh, didn't see any wilting. The freeze-dried rolls of meat were still appropriately freeze dried and not melting into a pile of meat goo like at some places. Ok. Food - check. We got a table and came back to the food line. This place charges by size-of-bowl (I've seen some charge by weight or be AYCE) and you can tell the regulars because they KNOW how to fill a bowl. If your bowl is not overflowing to the point of nearly toppling over, you will not get back a full bowl of cooked food. I was only middling hungry so my mid-sized bowl merely heaped. I especially liked the sauce bar. Quite an extensive selection of sauces, with all the usual things plus some extras. I can imagine as a regular you could have a really good time exploring different combinations. Alas, not for me as it's unlikely we'll find our way out here again anytime soon. The food was good. The service was good. If the eating-in-a-bathroom thing weren't so distracting, I'd be saying four stars.

    First of all when you walk in there is always an odd smell. Owners stare at you but never speak to…read moreyou (unless you overfill your bowl) they usually always have a mean look and seem unapproachable. The food is pretty decent, if you know what you're doing. Some foods are fully frozen and are sometimes in ice water as well as the sauces. The food is WAYYYY OVERPRICED for food that is sometimes fresh. The chef usually always seems to step outside for a cigarette after cooking a few bowls and rarely speaks or smiles. The waitress is honestly the only sweet and approachable person there. The place is pretty run down, most of the booths are broken, there are sticky tables and the place does really smell like a bathroom. The bathrooms are pretty disgusting. It makes sense why if you come around noon during lunch it is pretty empty, but hey no wait time! Overall, the flavors are pretty good, these owners just need to work on CUSTOMER SERVICE and with those overpriced meals get some new tables and chairs and hopefully a better attitude.

    The Seoul Bowl absolutely steals the show here. Thinly sliced bulgogi, layered over rice with crisp…read morevegetables, kimchi, and a sunny side up egg creates a rich, balanced bite every time. Once mixed together, the yolk coats everything into a delicious fresh dense bowl that's deeply satisfying without feeling too heavy. The crispy calamari was a great, light, crunchy meal. The octupus pieces were thick and paired well with the sweet chili sauce. The breading wasn't distracting but rather adding to the flavor. The thai chili salmon plate was bright and fresh, with a nice balance of glaze, greens, and noodles. Overall, higher quality for lower price. We will be returning. Cocktails were just as thoughtful as the food -- vibrant, fruity, sweet, and beautifully presented. If you come here, order the Seoul Bowl. It's comforting, flavorful, and easily the standout dish on the table
