We dined here yesterday evening as a large party for a birthday dinner. It was mine & my sister’s first time here. Service was meh, food took forever to come out, & the women’s bathroom downstairs smelled horrendous.
The calamari, chicken livers, & spaghetti were good; everything else had a strange taste to it. Other party members said the cabbage soup was not good & neither was the gravy for the baked steak- they said it tasted ‘spoiled.’ My dad’s cajun chicken pasta was watery. The mac & cheese was simply disgusting- no one at the table liked it, including my 2 yr old who will literally eat anything (he cried when he took a bite- that’s bad).
Needless to say, we will not be back.

This is my review on Angela's on the River.
The ambience was just relaxing. The staff were friendly and patient. Out waitress was wonderful and prompt.
Angela the owner was so sweet!
This was my first time to restaraunt and my experience from tonight will prompt me to return.
Onto the food and drinks...
Starters:
The give you rolls and butter to start with, the rolls were warm and delicious.
Appetizers:
We opted for Linda's Hot Crab Dip, this was was warm cheesy, buttery with soft crab. The baguette and flavor paired beautifully with the hot crab dip.
Drinks:
We got coke and diet coke, for a refill they.nring you pitcher style refill that you can self serve, that was awesome!
Adult beverages: tequila and tonic on ice & Manhattan both were delicious.
Entrees:
Madeline's Rib Eye ( medium rare/well it was an in between) with scalloped potatoes and macaroni and cheese. No sauce needed for this rub eye, my partner have me a good chunk to try and I was able to cut this with a butter knife and that's how steak should be!!!! The flavor of the steak was unique and delicious, I can't honestly say I have never eaten steak that tasted the way it did. The scalloped potatoes were delicious, different as they were chunky and i preferred them that way and my partner enjoyed them as well. He got the macaroni and cheese and it was good and I liked the cheese flavor.
Crab Stuffed Whitefish, that is served over a bed rice, sides were Italian style green beans and scalloped potatoes, as I stated above they were delicious. The greens beans were sooooo good, but I am a huge fan of these style of green beans, they were flavorful and the perfect temperature.
Dessert:
We got this to go and we haven't tried it yet but we got a slice of apple and a slice of peach cobbler.
10/10 recommend and we will return!
Also, the people that were dining next to us were also celebrating a birthday. We met a sweet little lady who just turned 90 on Wednesday and we wished her a happy birthday and she got to meet my partner who just celebrated their 50th on Wednesday. We chatted with her for a few and then she left, we chatted with another couple across from about the encounter we just shared with that sweet lady.
On to my experience with the owner. I was drawn in by her Christmas scene near the bar as it resembled a Thomas Kincaid setup, which was my late grandmother's favorite thing put out on display this time of year and made me feel sentimental and this is where I ran into Angela herself. She greeted us and asked how everything was and without a beat I told her it was the best restaraunt dining I have experienced and the food was delicious especially it being my first time there. I told her I will be back in the future. We hugged. She is incredibly nice and runs a nice establishment. To me it speaks volumes when the owner is willing to get their hands "dirty" right a long with the staff. That is called leadership and I witnessed that tonight.
Also why are you all sleeping on this place, give it a chance and try it out yourself!

There was a faint smell of sewer in the bottom bar area. Customer service was unprofessional. Order was wrong. Chicken and pasta was overcooked. Not a good view of river.

Beautiful restaurant and friendly staff but the food was horrible. Everything tasted like a stomachache. The lasagna had very little flavor… what flavor it did have was like bad meat. Sautéed mushrooms were soggy and tasted nothing like a mushroom. . Was afraid to eat either of these. Bread with the crab dip was rubbery and drenched in oil. Waitress saw that neither was eaten and just asked if we needed a box , did not ask why they weren’t eaten. Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

My husband and I went to Angela's on the river, we have been here before, and have always been extremely pleased. I ordered a steak medium rare, mac and cheese and a baked potato, it was the most horrible thing I ever tried to eat, my husband even tried to eat it and he can eat anything but that! The steak was well done fatty shoe leather, the sides were also horrible! My husband ordered the crab stuffed whitefish and it was great. The waitress saw I didn't eat my food and took it off the bill, but I don't think we will be back.

Great family restaurant with flavorful dishes. Serving sizes are large, quality of ingredients is fresh too. You can book large party banquets too. Prices are very reasonable as well.
The food and the service were great, my filet was cooked perfectly, salad was fresh and crisp, and the crab dip app was amazing! 10/10 recommend! Can’t wait to eat here again!
Rolls and fries were good. Seasoned mushrooms were small and flavorless. The cole slaw was dry! Blackened salmon was dry and no flavor. Good atmosphere but disappointed with their food.?

First time trying this restaurant, and neither of us was impressed with our entrees or the service. I usually try one of the specials at restaurants, but in this case the seafood pasta was lacking. Angel hair pasta can be difficult to cook correctly, and I understand that. But this was overcooked and paste-y, so maybe cook linguine instead. I could comment on the problems with the service, but really don't want to take the time ...
