Had a great experience at riverfront grill yesterday!

First, we ordered one of their many great draft beer options, the cherry bomb blonde.

Then, we hit the salad bar, which was phenomenal! They had a ton of great salad bar options.

All of our meals were legit. Not the best Philly I’ve ever had but it was totally up there.

The wait staff was nice. The bar was cool. Gambling machines.

The coolest part was the outdoor riverfront patio. We hung around after we ate and had a few beers. It was a great environment.

I would totally go again!

We come here often, it is a local joint, home style cooking as well as bar food. Pizzas too. There is also a salad bar. We absolutely love it here. I’ve never had a bad meal here. Service is great. In addition to the menu they have specials. Today we got the prime rib which was very flavorful, it was served with one side and a dinner roll. The roll for sure tastes like they are made there. They are very soft, and a subtle sweetness. Honestly tho, My guilty pleasure is their broccoli salad. I cannot figure out why it’s so good!! Just go here. Know you will be spending $60+ but you will never have a bad meal here. That’s for darn sure.

Excellent food, views, and service. The salad bar was fresh and delicious. We especially liked the goulash- it was seasoned well and hearty. I had the Reuben calzone and loved it! It’s an old school place that reminds me of the golden era of Quad City dining, when everyone had a salad bar and homemade soups.

Gorgeous spot for dining-in located right on the Rock River! Loved sitting outside, eating our lunches and staring out at the view. Both meals were pretty good, nothing that was mind blowing but it was overall enjoyable. The service was very fast and knowledgeable about their menu. I would definitely recommend for a nice lunch and/or dinner down by the river.

Took my Dad there for his 70th bday (hosted the party last weekend). His choice, we both got the catfish dinner special. Salad bar was included, nice classic salad bar), you get choice of side. We could talk at normal volume. Waitstaff were attentive but not bothersome(or that could have been cause our waitress was a trainer…)

Just had our Thanksgiving meal and it was fabulous. We did have reservations and was seated right on time, the young lady taking care of all people coming in was very courteous and doing a great job. Everything on the buffet and salad bar was delicious and plentiful at all times. Our waitress was very nice. I would definitely do this again next year if they have it again.

I want to start off by saying that not only was my food great but the owners of the restaurant greeted me with positive vibes! Very clean and a comfortable ambiance. My food was great, it was served hot and I didn’t wait long at all. For my appetizer:Naked Wings with Honey Sriracha sauce Main course: Full Rack of Ribs with Steak Fries with Chicken Tortilla Soup. Everything was made fresh, hot and absolutely DELICIOUS!!!
I will definitely be returning!!!!

As one of the top 10% of Google reviewers for restaurants in the USA, I write this review with a heavy heart. I’ve been a loyal customer of this restaurant for quite some time, and while my experiences have generally been positive, my most recent visit was so terrible that I felt compelled to leave a 1-star review.

We started with loaded fries, which were barely edible. They arrived without the sour cream we expected, and we had to ask for it separately. Worse, the fries tasted like they were fried in old oil, had zero seasoning, and were genuinely disgusting. Then came the salad bar—something I was initially told came with my meal. Moments later, our server embarrassed me by saying it actually didn’t and that I’d be charged. I changed my order to avoid this, settling on the smothered chicken, which was so dry that I struggled to swallow every bite. The green beans were rancid, and the French dressing had an odd pickled taste. The broccoli cheese soup was old and off-tasting, which even the manager later admitted.

My wife also opted for the salad bar but walked away hungry, as her selections were just as unappetizing. The potato soup, which should have been fresh, was notably stale. My son ordered the grown-up grilled cheese and had to pick off tomatoes that were clearly past their prime. The only redeeming item was my youngest’s pizza—but honestly, pizza is hard to mess up.

When I asked if they had lost their regular cook, I was told no, but I can’t imagine how this could be the same kitchen I’ve known in the past. The “manager” came over after I expressed my concerns, wearing a smug expression and dismissing most of my feedback, aside from admitting that the potato soup was indeed old. She offered us free dessert, which we declined, and her indifferent attitude was the final straw.

We ended up at McDonald’s afterward, where we had a far more satisfying meal. It’s sad to see a once-dependable spot decline so sharply, but I won’t be returning.

****Edit**** I just saw the owner’s response—everything they said is a lie! We absolutely informed our server about the issues with our food, and the only thing offered was a free dessert. After such a terrible meal, why would we want dessert? And no, we didn’t eat most of the food—we left it on the table and walked out hungry and frustrated that we had to pay for something so disgusting.

As a small business owner myself, I hesitated to leave this review, but the complete lack of care and concern from this establishment made it necessary. You knew we were upset when we left, yet instead of making it right, you chose to lie on Google. That’s not how you handle customer concerns.

We used to be regulars, but after spending over $100 on four inedible meals, we had to go to McDonald’s just to get lunch. Is McDonald’s perfect? No, but it’s what I could afford after wasting money here.

And regarding tipping—I always tip at least 20% for bad service and typically tip 50-100%, but when a tip isn’t deserved, that’s on the server and the restaurant, not me.

Wow always wanted to try this place and ultimately was delighted when we did. Wife has panko shrimp and the taste was orgasmic. I had chopped steak and was the best I’ve ever had. Salad bar was excellent with a good assortment of salads and soup. Will definitely stop again.

Food was very good. Reminded me a little bit of the old supper club style of restaurant.

You could tell the restaurant has been here for some time, but it was clean. Waitstaff was on their game. Told us we’d have a 15 min wait, but we’re seated in about 5 min.

There is a bar area, dinner area & a couple different special occasion areas. It also appears that there is an outdoor seating area for warmer days ( It was in the 30’s the night we were there)

Salad bar! Loved it! Haven’t seen a salad bar in years. Smaller, but well stocked & very fresh.
