Fast service and huge portion sizes. Variety of menu items and daily specials. Bar, tabletop and outdoor seating available. Complimentary popcorn is available and tons of TVs to watch during sporting events. Restaurant overlooks the course.
We had the shrimp po’boy and prime rib special.

I recently visited Riverwood National Bar and Grill for dinner with my son, and unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. We ordered the Chips and queso, Chicken tender sandwich, and the Philly sandwich.
The queso tasted like it came straight from a jar you buy at the store, lacking any fresh or homemade flavor. The fries were greasy and soggy, which made them quite unappetizing. The chicken tender sandwich was the most concerning; although it appeared to be cooked through, after a few bites, I had to stop eating it due to a bad taste and a spoiled smell. Sadly, I later got sick from it. The Philly sandwich was also a letdown, with extremely soggy bread that made it impossible to eat by hand.
Additionally, the bar and restaurant were extremely busy, and having only one bartender on staff was not enough as she could not keep up with the demand. The waitress appeared to be high school age, which was fine, but there was no one older to guide them on proper work ethic. They spent most of their time standing against the wall just outside of the kitchen talking. To top it off, one of the staff members had their 4 or 5-year-old son running in and out of the kitchen. This is not only a safety concern due to the risk of accidents but also a health concern as it compromises the cleanliness and hygiene of the food preparation area.
Overall, our meal was far from enjoyable, and I hope this was a one off or that the restaurant can improve its food quality and service in the future.

Service was slow and awful. Took forever to get our drinks and then they came one at a time rather than our whole group all at once ( only 4 adults and 2 kids and we just ordered sodas and beers). We had the fish fry. It was ok but not great. Portions were quite large. Little girl in our group wanted ice cream for dessert. It took at least twenty minutes to get the waitress to come back to tell her the choices and after she ordered a simple ice cream sundae it took at least 45 minutes to get it – and that was after complaining twice.

This place is amazing. The food is phenomenal and Craig, the new head chef, preps so much of the menu fresh and sauces homemade. The staff is always top notch. Jenny is an excellent manager and always remembers everyone on a first name basis. We came in for Mother’s Day filet mignon special last weekend and it was the best steak I’ve had in a long time. Drinks are great, pull tabs and bingo night is so much fun.

We love the expanded menu and hours. The patio views are outstanding and it’s a great casual, local bar and restaurant. So glad to see a packed house a few weeks ago. Really enjoyed the fish fry and fish tacos. Our kiddos loved the snack basket behind the bar too.
