Reviews for RA Bistro in Lynchburg, VA
The spinach dip was fantastic but everything else was just okay or less. The broccoli soup was not good at all and neither my... friend or I could eat it. The fish tacos were okay, they needed sour cream or something to help with how dry they were. I evenupgraded the fish to mahi for an extra 6$ and the mahi was just not fresh tasting. I would not order it again, nor order thenormal mahi entree. The staff was decent overall and the restaurant and restrooms were very clean. Overall, I don't think I willbe back by choice. Read more
We were pleased with the service. 20% tip is added in automatically which is fine when you get great service. I am vegan and... they made sure I was accommodated. My husband had the chicken Alfredo and he loved his meal. I had the Beyond Burger withoutbread, since the bread isn't vegan. My side was roasted Brussels Sprouts which if I did it over again, I wouldn't order them. Ihad to saw really hard with the knife to cut them. My husband didn't care for them either, but at least my burger was good. Itwould be great if they had sliced vegan cheese, so they could melt that on the burger versus the colder bits. However, they madea nice presentation. Although, I didn't get full (I would have with a different side), the service was superior to many places Ihave dined and I will return. Read more
Delicious food, great ambiance, and lovely staff. We called to make a reservation but found that they do not take same day... reservations. We decided to go for an early dinner to avoid a long wait on a Saturday night. Glad we did because the food wasgreat! Upon our arrival, we were seated quickly. Our waiter took our drink order and explained that gratuity is included in allorders. We ordered the Mahi Oscar which was grilled to perfection. The garlic mashed potatoes lacked a bit of flavor but wasgood. The RA house burger was good with delicious sweet potato fries. Everyone was friendly and polite. Nice place to visit. Read more
I absolutely love the restaurant every time I go. Went back with my mother as a post Mother's Day lunch/early dinner, and wasn't... at all disappointed. This time I had an appetizer for my meal, and I was so happy with it! The Funnel Cake Sliders, they wereabsolute perfection. Just sweet enough to where I didn't feel the need for a dessert after dinner, which I'd wanted... Butstill, not disappointed. I tried the Lavender Lemonade with my meal an, honestly, I could easily drink that all through thesummer and be content! My mother had the Mahi Oscar and Cucumber Salad, and she said it was absolute perfection. Oh, and asalways, we had the Calamari for our appetizer, and, as always, we comment that we wish we could fix it the way they do athome. The serving staff was really friendly and helpful with any inquiries we had on drinks we wanted to try, and it was just anoverall great experience. ....One thing, the pillars in the place need a little dusting... Otherwise, no complaints. Read more
We had the chicken parm sub, seafood pasta, sweet potato fries, and a couple kids meals. Kids were happy with them and the... French fries were really good! Some very large pieces of sweet potato fries (what we got mostly) were undercooked so not good atall. Both side salads had so much rotting lettuce in that we were not able to eat them. Read more
Service was fast and staff was wonderful. The cucumber salad was my favorite item on the table. The cucumbers were fresh and... crisp. The spinach dip wasn’t bad it just tasted more like a bowl of melted cheese to me. This was my first mimosa; tastedlike a rotten orange. I’m told the Turkey burger was juicy. The steak was ok. They have a really nice menu/variety of items. Iwas told the wings were nice and the Parmesan sauce was flavorful. Read more
Absolutely the highlight of main street. RA Bistro has been a fantastic experience every time. Their food is delicious and the... staff are lively, sincere, and great at their work. You can tell a lot of passion flows through this place. The setting isexceptional as well. Low lighting, relaxed environment inside with a full service patio section outside that overlooks part ofdowntown. The food has been great as well. Their signature burger is perfectly cooked. Great toppings and juicy, but on a bunthat is toasted so the bread doesn't turn into a soggy mess. Their fish and chips are on bar with the best in the UK and theirseafood pasta dish was excellent. Every item we have tried has been great! Highly recommend visiting here! Read more
RA Bistro was a wonderful experience. The food was amazingly delicious and atmosphere was delightful. I had the jambalaya and I... would highly recommend it to anyone who likes seafood and spicy. My wife had the chicken parm, she said it was delicious aswell. Read more
