    So pleasantly surprised. Food was extremely delicious and cooked perfectly. Ordered the mussels appetizer, sirloin tips and pulled pork sandwich. Cosmo was strong and for dessert the chocolate cake was amazing. Restaurant was very quiet for a Friday evening at 6pm. Wait staff very attentive.

    I was really surprised at how good our food was at a casual hotel restaurant! The clam chowder rivals anywhere, which is a real statement in the Boston area, but it's true! Otherwise, we shared chicken wings which I thought were fine (but my guest called them out as better than Buffalo Wild Wings, for the record.) I don't know if I'd say Riverbend Grille is worth a special trip, but it's well worth consideration if you're passing through the area and certainly if you're staying at Marriott Boston Newton.

    Where the Marriott used to have a dining room, diners are now crowded into a very noisy bar area. The menu, already very limited, had items on it, which were not available. Our server, though very pleasant and accommodating, must have been assigned more tables than he could handle because he was rarely seen and available.  Sorry to see such a decline in a place where we used to enjoy dining.

    The food was good but seemed a little overpriced. The Aperol spritzes seemed really tiny. Children's menu items were a little pricey at $15. The view was nice and it was convenient if you're staying at the hotel. Our server was friendly as well.

    Went on a Sunday and had called to see if they offered brunch and was told yes. When arriving asked again and was seated for brunch. Server arrived and asked if we would like coffee, juice. We were told there was a buffet that we went to look at. It was a typical hotel buffet with cereal, breads, fruit, omelet station, bacon, potato’s but no pancakes, waffles, French toast. When we got back to table there was a carafe of coffee. Server did not return. I did not want buffet and was waiting for his return. Finally I went up to host to ask if there was a menu or other offerings. I was told yes there was a lunch menu. I was never brought a menu, we were never told price of buffet and ultimately I went and got some fruit and a muffin and was charged almost 30$. I will not return and I wish I had not eaten at all.

    Our server was fantastic! And the views of the Charles River rounded out our lovely breakfast meeting.

    We were six overall and had a very nice breakfast with fine service. The waiter was kind enough to honor our separate check request.
