If you're looking for a tasty smash burger this is it. While it's insanely greasy, it's very…read moredelicious. I got a double Wagyu and the grease was dripping down my fingers as I was eating it. I would've been ok with a single patty instead of double. I hate that they charge extra for everything. Extra for pickles, lettuce, side sauce..everything that should already be on the burger is an extra. The fries are fried in tallow and are pretty good. They went well with the side sauces I got - cheese sauce and butter buffalo. And also I tried their chocolate milkshake..solid. Overall great filling lunch. But all in all I spent over $50. This place isn't cheap. Am I dying to come back? No. But if I ever drive by again, I'd keep it simple and get a single patty burger and call it a day.

This is one of those places that reminds you why burgers became a thing in the first place…read more I ordered what looks like a very modest cheeseburger. No tower. No gimmicks. No "chef's interpretation." Just bun, beef, cheese. And somehow it absolutely delivered. The patty was smashed just right with crispy edges and a juicy center, and the cheese was properly melted like it actually respected the assignment. The bun held together the entire time, which already puts this place ahead of most burgers I have eaten in the last decade. No soggy collapse. No mid bite regret. Now let's talk fries. These fries are the kind that do not need explaining. Golden, crispy, slightly irregular as intended, and clearly fried by someone who knows exactly when to pull them. Add the dipping sauce and suddenly you are negotiating with yourself about whether to save some fries for later. You will not. This is comfort food done confidently. Not trying to be viral. Not chasing trends. Just quietly excellent food that makes you pause mid bite and think, "Yeah, this is it." If you are looking for * a burger that tastes like a burger * fries that disappear faster than planned * and a meal that leaves you full, happy, and slightly smug about your choice this place is it. I came hungry. I left impressed. I will absolutely be back, and next time I am ordering extra fries because I have learned my lesson. Highly recommend.

Thats all that was needed for that meal. Although I thought fries on the side would be included, that didnt really disappointed me as much. Wish I tried their shakes though. oh and the "chicken wings" were awesome! Truffle Honey Mustard was sooo good

They have a separate…read morebuilding with a really nice room overlooking the river on one side and the fire pit/main restaurant on the other The room itself is warm & inviting with lots of wood, big windows, high ceilings and the tables can be set up any way you want. We had a cocktail party for about 35 people at high tops and it was excellent (plenty of room for dancing, etc) The food was delicious, prices are very reasonable and the staff were great! I highly recommend having any kind of party there! I can't say enough about Erin who was the event manager. She worked with me for months making sure that everything is going to be perfect. I'm sure I was driving her crazy at several points but her patience was exceptional and her management & organization skills are incredible! She also is a tech wiz (at least compared to me) and helped me set up a playlist for the party on a Bluetooth system and a video loop of photos of my husband to play on the TVs. She was there the whole night along with a bartender and runner and everything was as smooth as can be. I was totally relaxed knowing that she was taking care of all the details! Thank you so much, Erin! The party would not have been a terrific success without you! Definitely check out River for your next party!

Fountain soda has the usual suspects, plus red birch beer which I had to get since you don't see it everywhere! Fries were hot and super crispy, with a nice soft fluffy interior.

I ordered their Woo-Ha burger and their truffle fries. The burger was very good, it was definitely very spicy but pretty filling, despite only having one smashed patty. I liked their truffle fries, they weren't amazing but they weren't bad either - side note: the small fries are more than enough for two people. I feel like it's a bit expensive for what they offer which is why I'm giving them a four star review, and I think the meat itself could use more flavor. Overall, I will give them another try if in the area.

The place is nice, they have free lemon water, and plenty of seating. Went up to order and the person behind the desk recommended I get the onions with the burger, said that the onions were what made it! I loved that enthusiasm and asked for it as is. I also got their cajun fries on the side. The burger was okay, it wasn't seasoned so nothing special or comparable to other smashburgers I've tried, and was small for the price. The fries were very salty, crispy, but the salt overpowered how good they may have been -- if you're gonna get fries, get the regular ones!
