Rail & River Bistro

Nice little place, with attentive staff and service. Fresh food with good sized portions. Beautiful location in Fort Langley.

Very nice ambiance but the food could do with some flavor kick. That being said, the Mac and Cheese was pretty good.

We usually eat our lunch at Fort Pub every time we are in Fort Langley. Since we had our baby with us, we were redirected to Rail & River. We were seated immediately since there were only four tables occupied inside. We waited 15 to 20 minutes before leaving. No server approached our table within that time frame. As we were leaving, I told an employee of the experience and she said "oh okay." So incredibly disappointing. Would not go back to either the Pub or the Bistro after this.

Ordered Cali seafood club to go and the bread is smaller than thedine in. Also had the Mac and cheese and it seems like the portion is half what we had at dine in. Kind of disappointed in the take out because we were planning to eat here for our bday. Really wished they still had their fish taco instead of tuna poke taco. That was to die for

The kitchen staff are the only ones doing a good job. No complaints with the food.
The service was absolutely TRAGIC! I don't have the energy to list all the issues we had with the service but if the management would like to reach out I will be glad to let them know. We voiced our concerns with the female manager on duty Sunday morning but she didn't really seem to care all that much. I'm glad I'm not the owner. This could be an awesome place but the owner has some real staffing issues here.

We went for a celebration dinner and were very dissatisfied with the food. Over cooked, fish, flavorless chicken. Price does not reflect the quality. Server was fun and kind however that did not make up for the food.

I am late to write this review as I visited in September! However I will be back again when visiting the area. Very cool vibe inside. Great service and friendly happy staff! Our food was so flavourful and the kids loved their meals as well. Would love to come back for dinner without the kiddos!

We celebrated my Mom’s 60th birthday last night. The whole process from booking the restaurant (private party), to tasting, and communicating final details was seamless. The manager went above and beyond to create a memorable occasion - even taking it upon herself to surprise us with customized centrepieces for the tables! The price was competitive… and the value was excellent. All of our guests have commented on how great the food and atmosphere was. This little gem tucked down by the river is definitely a place we will recommend over and over. Oh, and we’ll be back too!

Incredibly cute space. Beautifully decorated and cozy feeling space. Service was top notch and the menu had a great variety. We lucked out and had the option of prime rib! The flavor was amazing and the portion size was large. Decent pricing for what you get. A great overall dining experience.

Ugh. No thank you. Never again.
We were there for Sunday brunch. We all regretted it. There is not a brunch menu, but rather a "buffet" that has been laid out on fold-out tables. Selection dismal, flavours very underwhelming. We were actually able to order eggs benedict, which was made for us in the kitchen. Not sure what kind of sauce they used but it sure wasn't Hollandaise. (We all felt nauseous afterwards.)
I've heard their dinner is great... but sadly, brunch was an epic fail for us.

We arrived in a very large group (22 people) and it took a while to get our main course, but the waitress was very attentive, and appologised for the wait. The appitizers were delicious and drinks were brought quickly. When we got our main course it was so delicious. We had one rude guest which took her irritability out on the waitress which was uncalled for but the waitress was professional and dealt with it despite the anger displayed to her.

I wouldn't take a huge group but the food did arrive fresh and hot and delicious.

This restaurant is a great addition to Fort Langley! The food is delicious, service is fantastic, and the management is so friendly - even popped by our table to tell us of some exciting new items to come! The newly opened patio is amazing as well. If you don't want your night to end after dinner you can pop next door to the Fort Pub for another drink and a lively atmosphere:) We had a perfect evening. Highly recommend it!!

Customer service is bad. Waiter dropped a cup of ketchup on my coat when serving the food and he then proceeded to wipe it off with a wet cloth. It came off (but I have the stain still). When we got the bill, there was no compensation whatsoever. If this was my establishment, there was no way that customer was paying for her portion of the bill. Just saying. Probably won't go back.

We looked at the menu outside and happy hour menu was posted with times only... and no other restrictions. We waited 30mins for a table (when the two tables we were sat at were vacant for the whole time we were… there). There was even another group that came after us that left after waiting for 15mins. When we were finally seated we were told there was no happy hour because it was a holiday (despite no posting on the outside menu). We ordered off of the regular menu and then the main courses came out all at different times.

Absolutely loved this place. My chicken burger was perfect and my wife's seafood chowder was delicious. The service was great even though it was the waitress' second day on the job. They have a good beer selection and the decor is new and modern. Would recommend this restuarant to anyone.

Delicious food, good wine selection, and excellent service! We also enjoyed the clean and modern decor. We started with the scallops which were ok, but not amazing (I think they would benefit from a more flavorful sauce). For my main I had the salmon special and it was phenomenal...the lobster bisque sauce was divine! We finished by sharing the white chocolate creme brûlée and the chocolate cherry dessert, which were both excellent. A great dining experience!

Enjoyed our dinners. Took a little long to have our order placed, but it was worth it. Salmon was cooked perfectly. Very nice, clean and modern inside. Menu is very minimal. Dont expect a huge menu, however they have a good selection. Overall we enjoyed our meal and our server Samone was awesome :)

Went there for a late lunch with my hubby, daughter, & little grandson in August. We got seated by the window with the view of the river, & hanging flower baskets outside. Though food is on the pricey side, I will say it's well worth it. The taste of food is well balanced, one can really taste the different herbs & spices used. They only use fresh ingredients and the serving portions are reasonable.

Though I'm not a salad person, I ordered the Heirloom beet salad mainly for health reasons but ended up enjoying it. I didn't know salad can be that yummy. Best salad

I stopped by again during lunch and the menu changed. Only two entree items were under $20. The rest of the menu felt like dinner pricing. Usually for lunch, I expect to spend under $20 for entrees. I ordered the Off the Rails Burger with a sunny side up egg and side salad.

The service this time was just as slow as last time. There was only one person making all the food orders. Our server was attentive and stopped by to refill water cups once in awhile.

Once my burger arrived, it was presented well and tasted like a great gourmet burger should be. I enjoyed the runny egg, bacon, cheese and mushroom

Awesome food & service! Visited for dinner twice & today for brunch, the gypsy benedict was one of the best bennies i have ever had! Complimentary wine tasting was great for sunday brunch:) Great food & service for a third time, will be back again soon!!

Delectable. My vegetables were perfectly cooked, the mashed potatoes delicious and my filet mignon perfect. My partner devoured their salad proclaiming it one of the best they've had and their burger delicious! We enjoyed the crisp, clean, bright interior. The restaurant is deceptively big inside. The staff were fantastic. We will be back.

This place has great service and being set on the river in FT Langley the location is great.

We ordered a couple of salads mine a Caesar and my friend's the Beet Salad.

I ordered the Caesar primarily because the menu stated it came with fried capers and I have been wanting to try fried capers. When I got my salad I looked for the fried capers and couldn't find any. There was some really yummy bacon crumbles on the salad though. When I asked the waitress she was super quick to grab me some from the kitchen and they were delicious!

The beet salad was tiny...delicious ingredients but

A breath of fresh air for Fort Langley. Loved everything about our experience and will be back with confidence to enjoy the thoughtful menu, creative room, and pleasant service. Well done, Rail and River.

Met friends for dinner last night at this new bistro. Service was friendly and attentive. The menu is as expected. The group really enjoyed the tenderloin and the cod. Two people had the Seafood Garganelli and were quite disappointed. While the pasta and seafood was nicely cooked, this dish overall was bland with a sauce that tasted like it was from a jar. Salt and pepper can only help so much, even fresh Parmesan might have helped, but it wasn't offered. For the price of the entrees, we probably won't be back as there is a lot of competition in the neighbourhood.

Great new establishment, its well needed in the langley area. Great service, excellent food and well presented. Nice atmosphere for special evenings out. Yes the price is on the higher end but you get what you pay for. We need more restaurants like this in the fraser valley.
