It looks better than it is, this place exists because it's convenient and you wanna have some vibes with a view. The service is pretty good but the quality, variety of the food is below average.Just use Uber eats and sit on the grass.

I stopped here for a late lunch of fresh vegetables and lemon hummus and a ‘Riverside’ cocktail. It’s quite nice to watch the world go by on the River. It was relatively quiet and staff were friendly and service prompt. It was pretty packed when I walked past on Sunday. I appreciated some healthy options on the menu. Small serve! Cocktails in a plastic cup is not enticing.? I can understand I guess when it’s very busy.

Bad experience as I didn't check the reviews before I popped up.Basically it is a scam, covered glasses and plastic plates and student apartment refrigerator food. It's not his fault, it was my fault but he would have paid more for having a nice meal.

It doesn't seem like they have a kitchen. All of the plates, cups, & silverware were disposable. My friend wanted hot tea, but they didn't have hot water. The food wasn't great, but the location was fun. The patio heaters were nice & hot. Service was much better than the food.

This place is a complete tourist trap. You walk up and they want it appear like you’re sitting outside of a restaurant with indoor seating, when really it’s a completely fake store front. It’s literally a dude in the back under a bridge flipping burgers. I asked for a cup of water and they responded “ we don’t have cups of water” ( literally because there is no actual restaurant ) and said we could purchase sparkling.. I asked to have my sandwich heated and they said the same thing.. no way to heat up a sandwich.. they delivered the wrong food to the wrong table. The food was EXTREMELY overpriced and not good for what you’re paying. We kept getting harassed by yellow jackets while we were trying to eat, and had to close our early. One of the worst experiences ever.. don’t eat here!

Less than 1 star...this place should not service food. Processed, pre-packaged, crap food. I ordered the side salad and sweet potato fries...my husband got the turkey sandwich. The salad came in a cup with Paul Newman packaged salad dressing. The turkey sandwich was a little off. My husband didn't finish the sandwich. Food came out almost as soon as we ordered...cause they only had to unwrap it. Highly recommend No One Ever eat here.

Okay food at a kind of high price. The best thing about it is the location.

Service was so slow even though there were more servers than people. I got burger and fries, the blandest burger I have ever had. Don't think it had 1 grain of salt or pepper. It was also dry. The fries and lemonade were good. Good location. Cheap plastic chairs, can only buy bottled water and plastic ware. Overall wish I had gone anywhere else.

Food was below mediocre; don’t waste your money. This lettuce bed of what appears to be dog food is apparently “chicken tacos”..

Driest worst chicken sandwich I’ve ever had in my entire life. I asked them to replace it thinking maybe it was a mistake an old piece of chicken the second one came out exactly the same like it was microwaved. It tasted worse than my five day old Kroger chicken that I bought from the rotisserie. And way over priced.

Food was really good, I ordered a burger not a slider like the rest of the reviews that don't know how to order food. The servers were really friendly and chill with it. There's also a really good view of the city excellent stop to get a bite.
