The Riverside Family Restaurant is known for its great food and friendly service. The steak and eggs are highly praised, and the biscuits and gravy are almost as good as homemade. The staff are commended for their quick and unobtrusive service, and the cleanliness of the restaurant is noted. The restaurant has a quiet and relaxed atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for a sit-down meal. The broccoli soup and BLT wrap are standout menu items. The restaurant has ample parking for trucks and is a dying breed of old-style cafes and restaurants. The staff are described as amazing, and the food is said to be worth stepping outside of one's comfort zone for. Customers have praised the available parking for big rigs, loaded or not, and the fast and friendly wait staff who are accommodating to large groups. The homemade soups, especially the creamy potato and creamy broccoli, are also highly recommended.
