Rive is a new French Bistro on the Saugatuck River in Westport, created by Chef Eric Sierra whose Bistro des Amis in downtown Westport was, for a decade, the go-to place of some of the world’s best French bistro cooking. Like the legendary bistros of Paris, Rive is warm, and convivial, a true bistro populaire. The dining room, with a wrap-around wall of windows overlooks a bend in the river, there is fireplace for winter, and in warm weather there is an outdoor patio that feels like a cafe on the Siene. With a suave lighting, urban decor and, of course, un comptoir (a bar) serving hip cocktails and wine by the glass, Rive is very much of-the -moment, as popular Parisian bistros today. All that being true, Rive Bistro’s distinguishing feature, it’s primordial allure is boldly delicious, deeply satisfying home-style French bistros are famous for. Hemmingway would love it.

very good food!
Incredible!!! This pretty much summarizes our experience at Rive. Wonderful experience and will certainly return.
They are very good. Must try!
Haven’t been here yet but I’m a big fan of well done French cuisine. I remember Nuage in Cos Cob…was so over hyped and was very expensive. Probably why they’re not around. Will be back with an honest review.
Absolutely exquisite and one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Westport. I’m surprised no one has reviewed them yet. Will be going back.
