This restaurant was recommended by local residents and close to our motel. As the name of the restaurant says, they specialize in fish and chicken. I had a simple dark meat chicken dinner with fries and a biscuit with gravy. My wife ordered the white fish basket and they were served hot with some complimentary homemade onion rings. The meals were great that evening there was live music that we stayed a listened to. The music was basically a man with a guitar doing karaoke, but was very good.

This place was awesome! Was wanting some fish for the first Friday of lent. Ordered a trio combo so you pick three proteins and it comes with fries, coleslaw and hush puppies. Everything tasted amazing! Battered well, not fried in old oil, and all the staff was really amazing and nice when greeting you even though they were slammed. 10/10 would come back!

chicken was cooked (lol) crunchy and just normal nothing fantastic
Catfish needed lots of tarter sauce
The instant potatoes were my favorite thing
The onion rings not cooked all the way and then cold on top of it
Music was the great oldie but goodies

The dining experience is always great! The staff are always quick and hospitable when I visit. Sheila always a smile and ready to greet people. Although I haven’t experienced the salad bar as maybe it’s not operational. Either way, I always enjoy my dining experience.

Reminds me of a small town Mom and Pop eatery but don’t be fooled Place handles high volume and catering. The chicken fried steak was probably the best I’ve ever had and I hear their catfish is second to none. The ladies behind the counter were friendly, helpful, and make sure their experience there what’s the best you can have and if not they wanted to fix it right then.
Big and spacious dining area and there were different sections so it would probably be really great for large gathering or a private party.

Went through drive thru and the order was wrong. Should be steak fingers combo. I don’t live in town so going back is an even bigger dread. So disappointed

I’ve been here all my life. Riversmith used to be good. I haven’t been here in a while and decided to get lunch at Riversmith today. The food was horrible!!! I don’t know what happened but it was bad! I also ordered the mushrooms and I paid $10 for 11 mushrooms when they used to give so much more when you ordered the mushrooms and they were just as bad!!! Never ever eating here again!!! They have gone down hill!!! 0 stars

Visited River Smith for the first time, and had a good experience. The service was amazing, the restaurant was clean and my order was as ordered (no issues). I ordered the chicken fried steak, and it was good. My husband ordered fish and he said it was great. My son said the burger was very good. This is definitely a place to stop and try when in the area.

Cashier inside was rude. Bathroom had no paper towels in the automatic dispenser. I honestly didn’t like the paper boxes our food was placed in. I asked for ketchup and only got 4 packets. This was 3 full sized meals. Our order placed online and the time it had for our food to be ready was over 20 minutes later than the time text said. Spent over $40.00.
