The Old River Grill at the Marketplace offers classic diner food with a twist, including gluten-free options and easy substitutions for vegetarians. The restaurant features outstanding service in a bright and comfortable space decorated with an outdoorsy, fishing, and cabins theme. The atmosphere is relaxed, with a background of soft rock 'n' roll music. Dishes like the Chilango Benedict and the Cajun shrimp omelette are highly recommended, with the Bourbon Street omelette receiving praise for its flavorful Cajun cream sauce with a kick of heat. Portions are generous, so leftovers are common and still tasty. The restaurant is clean, and the vibe is perfect for families and friends looking for a casual dining experience. Whether visiting for the first time or returning, guests find the environment inviting and the food appealing to the eyes and palate.
The restaurant has received positive reviews, with one customer stating it is "one of the best breakfast cafes in town" and praising the "best pancakes in town." Another customer, visiting from Tennessee, enjoyed the "Voka wings, drunken noodles, fried green beans, calamari, gyoza, and the garlic edamame," and commended the excellent service provided by the server, Jackie. A third customer had a delicious chile verde omelette and praised the server, Amber, for being "on point and friendly."
