The Illinois Riverdock Restaurant is a well-known spot for homestyle cooking, celebrated for its delicious brisket, walleye, and catfish fritters. The homemade pies are a must-try. This restaurant has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, with staff like the cheerful waitress Jeane making customers feel valued. Recent reviews highlight the huge serving of walleye and the great beef brisket sandwich with BBQ sauce. Many visitors find the food consistently good and reasonably priced, with large portions. The restaurant features a gravel parking lot and a boat ramp to the river, making it an ideal stop for a drive or ride. Guests enjoy the hot food and the scenic view of the river, and kids are welcome, with toys available in the back dining room. While some reviews mention mediocre service and issues during busy times, the overall experience remains highly praised. The catfish fritters are noted for being fresh and light, although some have mentioned they were slightly underdone. Many diners also enjoy the fries and recommend trying the cucumber salad. Despite some service hiccups, the restaurant continues to attract visitors eager to return.
