“Always friendly staff and patrons. Great place to rest a while. By ? ?‍♂️ or ? or ?. My go to place while out fishing with the grandkids too. It's the only place they want to go for lunch and to fish the channels getting there. ?“

“Outstanding place to visit with the family. We would boat all through the summer, and one of the highlights would be to stop by the place with the family and enjoy their hospitality. Busy place. Great food, reasonable prices, the music the service are outstanding and just overall a great place to hang out with friends and family. They always have some sort of event happening and we went for the downstairs artic bar and WOW! What a great setup! Highly recommend it!“

“This place is really awesome they specialize in hamburgers. Next to the railroad tracks lots of TVs good place to watch sports services good their beer wine liquor selection is very good. We'll be going back to this place many times if possible. Parking is a bit of a hassle but the food is worth “

“This was my first visit, and it was fantastic! The bar staff was super personable and attentive, and the karaoke was really fun! The owner even took time to chat with me for a few minutes. River Street will definitely be a regular destination for me!“

“Came here on a Saturday night after the trendy chain in town quoted us a two hour wait. My 5 and 2 year olds had a great time! The place was clean and the staff was friendly and attentive. The kids enjoyed the snacks and the beer was cold (draft and bottle) for the adults!“

“I was there for a fundraiser last night. The food was really good, especially your salsa! Our server was attentive and kept track of our large group really well. We hadn't been there for a long time but will definitely be back again! Thank you so much.“

“First time here. Not much to look at on the outside, but nice casual atmosphere and good food inside, plus a great view of the lake.Shared corned beef egg rolls and pretzel bites. Our main courses were blt wrap, Reuben, and cheeseburger. All really good. See pictures. Finally, servers were very friendly. Will go back again.“

“I mean I know I review 5 stars almost every time, but that’s because I give props where props are due. I had the double smash burger and it was Aaaaaaamazing! Cooked to perfection. Thank you for being our hidden gem. Every time we choose the Side Lot… we go home happy.“

“Great food and atmosphere. I drive 40 minutes from Elk Grove whenever I want good thin crust pizza. The food and drinks are priced well and Kyra is an awesome server. Super attentive and friendly. Definitely an awesome bar/restaurant with great staff.“

“First time here, I liked the name LOLWe had the chicken wings and Goat Curds (cheese curds). Tuesday is karaoke night. We didn't stay for that. No one wants to hear me sing. Hubby and I were given two tokens for a free drink next time we stop by and we will. I want to try a burger......Parking: It is very well lit up in the back of the building. You can enter from the front or back of the building and after a certain hour you can sit in front of the building where the window goes up. Cool....“

“It's a sports bar with good and we are not into bars or sports...so the atmosphere isn't our preferred space- but the food (especially chicken limone) is fantastic.We prefer the onion rings over the toasted ravioli. Not because the latter is bad, we just prefer the rings. Since we're not bar folks and don't drink alcohol, sometimes it feels like service pays too little attention, but not always. That depends on the night and the server's.“

“Sideouts is an awesome place to eat, drink, bowl or watch live music! Huge outdoor patio with tvs, music, baggo, violleyball and so much more. The food is excellent, the pizza is some of the best around! Summertime they have car shows, bands in the sand concerts, and many other events. You gotta check this place out!“

“Rookies is a good stop for a great lunch or dinner. we stopped for all you can eat Fish Friday, the Fish, fries, and coleslaw were delicious. My husband loved the wing. Our bartender Taylor was fantastic. she helped with menu items, and made sure we were happy with our food. Taylor also made sure we were happy with our beverages. Rookies is lucky to have Taylor on their team. We will definitely be back. Kudos to the chef and Taylor for a great lunch time !“

“I've had the privilege of stopping by the Squaw Bar on several occasions and have enjoyed every visit. What is refreshing about this establishment is that it's cozy and not over refined like other establishments. This means that one can get to know just who they are enjoying the company of. The Squaw Bar even has the latest technology that blends in well with a good old fashion campfire by the sands. I'm speaking of .SVG TV... no not your regular run of the mill squabbles from all over the globe but a personalized cast of stars that light up the evening sky. Take for example the ale tale of Helen Liz Hunt. It's an October ghost story told at this time in the light of the Hunters Moon. The legend says that Helen walks the .3 mile route from Hunt Ave on a westwards journey. She crosses Helendale Road and arrives at the Squaw Bar in search of dark rye and molasses bread 🍞. Helen pays for her meal in Indian Rupee legal tender and enjoys the Raisins And Honey as the Sultan as played by myself offers her a 🍔 hamburger bear hug.“

“First time there & our server recommended all of the goodies, she was amazing! Agua de Jamaica was DELICIOUS & our food of course was amazing. Such great quesabirria tacos. Cute place inside & amazing ambience in general. Will be coming back soon“

“Great service the moment we stepped in.They were so kind and welcoming.The brisket was so tender and juicy. The sauce i used ( they have 5-6 house made sauces) the sweet and spicy sauce, which paired perfectly. Tiny tiny kick with the nice tangy sweetness.I also tried their ribs, which were just melting in the mouth.“

“A Storied place, legendary for its erstwhile pool leagues, with patron owners, a static stock of barristas and "Cheers" regulars, a kitchenette for pizza and wings, fairly lucky slots, live bands, bingo nights, and best of all, "Kevo" the maestro who runs Karaoke, sings withal, and DJs like a pro.“

“Well, this place wasn't around in my younger years pulling up by boat...and mooring the boat to the Turnkey Motor boat pier docks to swoop up Chuck (RIP) and Frank. However, remembering it being only a parking lot. It's a great addition to the Reef across the street. It's a nifty little bar just to the south of Burtons bridge. Not sure, if you can pull up by boat and dock (might want to consult with Turnkey Motors first) before doing so. I can honestly say...I like it's location. To bad this wasn't established sooner back in the day. They have a taco Tuesday special for a $1.00. Surprisingly, the menu is quite elaborate. They have eggs Benedict - that I'm definitely coming back to try. Everything I saw coming out of the kitchen looked awesome and tasty. Very nice place and atmosphere. They have an outside river bar beer garden, live band entertainment, horseshoe pits, volleyball. Even met some nice bikers from Rebel Cause - in which I knew nothing about them until that day (Highly Support & Respect) them and their cause. It was a great time, I enjoyed hanging out there. It brought back some good memories. Definitely worth while stopping in, even more so if your an old gearhead from back in the day. Great job! Look forward to coming back again soon. ??? A+!!!“

“Great place. Bartender made us really good food even after the kitchen had been closed. He went the extra mile and turned everything back on just for us. Food was excellent as was the service. We WILL be back for more. Thanks for Making our night!“

“I'm giving it a four because of the service. The pierogi's were outstanding that we split as an appetizer for four people. As a 12 pierogi entree for 17.00, nothing comes with it. No salad, nothing. Sour cream. So who eats 12 pierogi with nothing else for dinner? Delish but 17.00 with no side included?“

“We are slowly becoming frequent guests at Wings Etc. it's a small place with a surprisingly grand atmosphere. The staff always seems upbeat and happy so I HOPE that means they are valued and paid well. ?☺️We are a blended family with our kids ranging in ages from 5-16 which means going out to dinner where everyone is happy is a struggle and to find a place that is affordable AND authentically welcoming of our big family? Now that is just amazing to find in such a "hole in the wall" establishment.Looking forward to enjoying many more nights out with our group and getting to experience more of the Wings Etc. team.Kid-friendliness: The staff is friendly and our big party had kids all sitting at their own table beside us, and the waitress was able to easily ask them for their orders and handle the general chaotic nature of kids in the wild. Menu is just varied enough to suite the pallets of young kids without being overwhelming.“
