River's End Restaurant 13077 Highway 19 West, Bryson City, NC 28713

"Clean and service with Susan our waitress was great we had the Cajun trout dip to start. We each had the trout dinner two piccata and one blackened with side salads with blue cheese. We ordered the onion loafs as well. Excellent fresh fish. The view out our window at Nantahala River was beautiful."

"Super yummy food and a nice atmosphere restaurant on the river. We were on our way to Cherokee and weren’t expecting to come across a restaurant like this in the last little stretch of our trip - it was a pleasant surprise! The only oof part of the visit was the price of my soda ($4). Everything else was typical price for the area. We definitely hope to make another visit in the future though!"

"Second time visiting. I enjoy stopping here while traveling through. They offer excellent views, food, and service. Both my wife and I enjoyed the Gorge fries as an appetizer and the award winning chili. I had the Reuben and thought it was delicious. We look forward to visiting again in the future."

"This place has the perfect location, right beside the river and the food is as good as the view! Our server was very knowledgeable and a big help. All good was cook to perfection and the drinks were good also with a large variety. Recommend going across the river and seeing everything on the other side. Will definitely be coming back next year!"

"Came here for dinner and seated by the river. What a wonderful atmosphere being able to watch the rafters and kayakers as they go down the river. Very lively spot and family friendly. We had delicious gorge fries to start. If you’re gluten free, they’re safe and are cooked in a separate frier from the fried chicken. I also ended up getting the Mediterranean salad with trout. It was excellent! The salads are definitely a dish you can share or take for leftovers. My husband got the Sherpa pizza and said it was awesome! Many great options and quality dishes with an awesome river front makes for a good time!"
