Riverside Restaurant
St. Davids Avenue, Woodfieldside, Blackwood, nr Cardiff, NP12 0PN
A comprehensive renovation gives a well known local watering hole a new lease of life. While old timers can continue to enjoy the Rock and Fountain they have known, in addition to the new all-round dining experience that the attached Riverside Restaurant in Woodfieldside offers with its gourmet food, oak and leather ambience and conservatory dining area. This aesthetically pleasing restaurant also caters to meetings and conferences of up to 50 people at a time. Running an eye down the à la carte menu one finds such dishes as oak smoked haddock with horseradish tartlet, deep fried breaded Pantysgawn goat?s cheese with watercress salad, pan fried rump of lamb with roasted potatoes and shallots in a red currant gravy and fillet of local salmon on a bed of roasted vegetables topped with samphire.Running an eye down the à la carte menu one finds such dishes as oak smoked haddock with horseradish tartlet, deep fried breaded Pantysgawn goat?s cheese with watercress salad, pan fried rump of lamb with roasted potatoes and shallots in a red currant gravy and fillet of local salmon on a bed of roasted vegetables topped with samphire.

REVIEWS OF Riverside Restaurant
Welshfoodie (9 June 2010)
I have been to this restaurant a number of times recently based on recommendations from friends. The restaurant is really superb in every way and every time I visit I am equally amazed that this kind of quality is available in South Wales at such a reasonable price. I'm told that the chef has some really impressive experience and this really shows in the quality of the food and the consideration that has gone into the menu. Whilst it's a 15 minute drive from both Cardiff and Newport, it is most definitely worth a visit if you're in the area as it really is stunning.

Featured Group Restaurant
Nando's - Cardiff St David's 2
With quality food, friendly staff, quick service and excellent value for money, Nando's is a great place to eat. Don't expect identikit, pre-fab restaurant interiors which are usually a staple of the larger chains; each restaurant is tailored to its local surroundings and customers, offering up a unique restaurant experience to go with the equally unique taste of legendary, Portuguese, Peri-Peri chicken.
