“Our waiter Randi was one of the most fun and nicest waiters I’ve ever had. She chatted with us a bit while taking our order and let out positive energy. The food was great with good seafood and fabulous wings which we ate while watching march madness. The atmosphere was also great with a seaside vibe a nice bar and pretty lights.”
“I had the Chicken Piccata. It was cooked perfectly & crispy. The sauce was light,but flavorful. Excellent service,in a pristine & clean atmosphere. The cheese cake was light and delicious. Looking forward to returning again sometime.Parking: Large open parking lot,right in front of restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to get in & open spaces to navagate.”
“Many restaurants will charge high prices to create an aura of quality and fine dining, only to disappoint when it comes down to eating. Shipwright's Daughter is not that place. The prices are on the high side but wow, do they deliver. Four adults, four very different entrees and everyone left with all smiles. My beef strip loin was cooked perfectly and everything that accompanied it was tasty. Some signature cocktails were discounted for the 5 - 6 pm happy hour and were, again, delicious. Our server was friendly and attentive without overtaking the conversation. If your taste buds deserve a holiday this place is worth a visit.”
“Always enjoy this place. The hostess, I believe her name was Yvonne, could not have been any nicer. What a warm, friendly way to be greeted when you arrive, the service was excellent and so was the food. Needless to say, the view is even better.”
“One of the best restaurants in Mystic. Unfortunately after they renovated they got rid of the complementary bread and cornbread, but there food has consistently been fantastic. There service is usually slow though.”
“We can’t say enough about our breakfast. It was delicious! The staff is wonderful, knowledgeable and friendly. Coffee is delicious. Specialty coffees are innovative and amazing. I can tell you the ‘Life on Marzipan’ will make your day ?. We will be back to experience more of their menu!! We also go a “made to order” sourdough donut. INCREDIBLE! A nice chew, fantastic flavor, there was nothing we would change about the meals we had here. Thank you, Nanas!”
“Delicious!! What fun to have the happy team making salads to each of our wishes!! They were as joyful as we were to mix and toss and dress our creations!! The homemade soup also yummy!! We Sat on the benches overlooking the old swing bridge right nextdoor. A perfect lunch. :)Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free”
“The meats are delicious, the cowboy beans are fine. The sides are why this place doesn't get 5 stars. It all sounded delicious, but the cornbread was tasteless, the mac & cheese lacked salt and flavor, even the brisket chili was boring. Still giving 4 stars for food because the brisket, ribs, pork belly and sausage are delicious.I will go again, but get meat by the lb takeout.”
“It's been awhile since I dined here. I brought a good friend for her Birthday. It was her first time at Rio Salado. She loved it ( I knew she would)!! And as always, I did too! Hope to be back for more deliciousness soon!”

“Decided on a last minute trip to Mystic for Xmas Eve. Grabbed a reservation at Rio Salado and SO GLAD WE DID! Our food was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. Our server, Kevin, was attentive with a positive, upbeat attitude. Can't wait to go back! Rio Saldado is definitely one of our go-to places from now on. Perfect way to celebrate family and good eats!!”
“The best tacos on the Northeastern Seaboard!Had take out once and accidentally got charged for a dine in order as well. Called to ask about the double charge that I saw on my statement and the manager was very quick to respond and handle the issue!Have been a recurring customer for a while now. Taquerio is a destination that anyone visiting the Mystic area should definitely check out!”
“This was a great Lunch spot! They had a very versatile menu and Our server ( I think her name was Mallory? ) was very kind and polite. I got the dog watch Salad with steak and it was so good! Just a lot of cheese on the salad that I don’t think was listed on the menu.”
“The bartender working last night was so friendly and helpful. Awesome food, awesome service! Wish I lived closer so I could go back more frequently. I recommend the garlic bread and arancini, and the Alfredo sauce was so ”
“We live in N.J. and did a little family get away with my Daughter & her Fiance. My Family & I enjoyed our experience @Via Emilia . It was one of the best Italian restaurants we've ever been to, All four of us enjoyed our meals. My husband is writing a more detailed review .”
