    Visited Riley & Jake's for the first time recently on a pretty busy night and enjoyed our food and time there. We met the owner and he was super friendly. We had a very nice waitress (Anna) who was helpful in making suggestions too. We tried the bang bang shrimp as an appetizer and I really liked the crunch along with the flavor of the sauce. I had the Brie and bacon burger (retrospectively I sort of wish I had tried the pretzel burger). My burger was cooked well and as requested. My spouse had the buttermilk chicken sandwich - and he liked it (he hopes to try the crab cakes when we visit again). My one suggestion (if possible in that space) is that they might add a few seats up front for those who might need to wait a while for a table - though it does seem you may be able to go to the bar if you want to wait there and sometimes you can get served a meal faster if you eat at a table in there too. Overall, a quaint family-feel type of place that I would visit again.

    Foods are great and good as well as the place. First timer in this place and was amazed with everything. Huge place, well mannered staffs, ample parking lot and our server Diane was superb. She did take care of us very well. Thank you Diane. Ambiance is wonderful. Definitely will be back with the family and friends.

    Finally made to Riley & Jake's. They offer classic pub fare and they're well known for their jerk wings so we came to give them a try. They were very tasty and are a nice size but not a real traditional jerk flavor. I'd definitely come back to try out the buffalo style. I LOVED the presentation of the chopped salad and appreciated the frizzled onions on top. It came out nice and cold. My husband enjoyed the French onion soup. Our kids are obsessed with that soup so we plan on bringing them back whenever they get a craving. Our waitress was very friendly and our food came out quickly. My only complaint is that the place needs an update on the interior. I realize it's an older building but the decor and lighting looks to be from the early 80s. Could be nostalgic to some but it's a turn off for me.

    Came here last night to take a friend out for her Birthday! The place has a cool vintage vibe about it. Our server was friendly and awesome! I had the Turkey w stuffing and mashed potatoes while my friend had the black bean burger. After dinner we shared the flourless chocolate cake! All of the food was served in a timely fashion and was delicious. I look forward to coming back again and would recommend this place!

We had a 7 PM reservation on a Wednesday night, and the place and parking lot were packed! Good sign to start! To begin, I enjoyed the Ruby grapefruit mocktail. Although I'd love trying new and unique cocktails at different establishments, I was in the mood for something light and refreshing and nonalcoholic. This hit just a spot. For food, we started off with the margherita pizza to share. Then, I opted for the crispy, buttermilk chicken sandwich with malt vinegar, potato wedges/fries. It was very delicious. The sandwich was crispy and fresh and the bun looked like it was handcrafted. The malt fries were unique because they had a vinegar powder on them. I've never tasted malt vinegar before, and it was a unique texture. Our waitress was very friendly, but I wish she had been a bit more attentive. She only stopped by to ask us for our drink order, our food order, and to give the check. My friends wanted to order more drinks, but because she did not come around as frequently as we would have liked, they were unable to place another order. I will give her the benefit of the doubt, however, because the restaurant was bustling from start to finish. Overall, very nice setting and meal. Cute decor, including an Anthony Bourdain abstract portrait.

We were the only table being served, which gave us hope that things would go smoothly. Unfortunately, that hope quickly faded. We waited about 30 minutes for our food. My partner ordered a burger rare, and I ordered the mushroom risotto. When the plates finally arrived, I was shocked. The rice in the risotto was completely undercooked, the dish was incredibly salty, and strangely, there were no mushrooms in it. Desperate for a proper meal, I sent it back, only for the same plate to come back two minutes later with raw mushrooms just thrown on top. I honestly thought it was a bad joke. I was so hungry I ended up just eating around the mushrooms, but it was deeply disappointing. As for the burger, it came out well done, the exact opposite of what was ordered. But again, we were too hungry to ask for it to be redone. Sadly, we will not be coming back. This was not just a bad meal, it felt like no one in the kitchen cared. That plate coming back with raw mushrooms said everything. Circa lost two loyal customers that night.

    I have been coming to this diner for years. I have truly enjoyed coming here when visiting family…read morenearby, quite literally every time we come to town. The past few times we came over the past few years it seemed "off", but this time...I'm just sad. But before I get into the food thing, I want to address the service. We had to wait a few minutes for someone to wait on us at the bar since no one was attending it, but once they knew we were there, they checked on us, and it was good. So please don't get upset, it just may take someone a minute to see you there. The table service was impeccable, seriously wonderful table service...he didn't miss a beat. Now for the food: I suppose it depends on what you order, or maybe it's hit or miss these days? My Pastrami Reuben had super thick slices that were tough, making it hard to chew, and had no flavor. Members of my party had a chicken BLT and a burger, and both were ok flavor-wise, but very dry, making them hard to get through. Just taking a little bite of their sandwiches was enough for me. However, another member had flatbread, and it was fine. Fries were served cold and had zero flavor. We've had the same flavorless and tough food experiences the past few times we have eaten here over the past few years. The presentation is good, but once it hits the lips, mouth, and teeth, you get the real story. The beer is always cold though! The prices are fair, and the atmosphere is unique, although the toy train near the ceiling doesn't seem to be working anymore. Although I didn't get dessert this time, the desserts are normally good. There is more than ample parking, and depending on how you drive here, it can be a little tricky getting to. Follow the GPS if you aren't from around here. This diner is supposed to be the best 24-hour diner, and I'm not sure why. Again, service was wonderful, but if the food isn't always good or flavorful, then why? And for me as a customer, presentation is nice, but I care about the flavor and texture, otherwise...why bother?

    I am typically satisfied with every food choice when ordering at Clinton Station Diner…read more Service was excellent, but I was disappointed in the chili con carne. It was very salty, no beans, no tomatoes. My Party Melt, always a hit, was cooked to perfection alongside the fresh-cut, homemade fries.

Our server's name was Luke, he was friendly and attentive. We ordered the spritzer flight, cheese curds and big pretzel for appetizers. They came out fast and as we requested, with the kid's orders. The spritzer flight was delicious, my favorite of the four was the Aperol Spritz (a little sweeter and less bitter than other places) and the Raspberry Spritz. The Hugo was very refreshing and Limoncello was unfortunately not my favorite, but the other three made up for it and then some! The cheese curds were crunchy and came with a delicious ranch sauce for dipping, and the big pretzel was huge, salty and doughy- the cheese sauce was good with it but we also tried the honey mustard my son got with his chicken fingers and liked that combo even more! For my lunch I had a burger off the day's specials menu, it was the "A1 Burger" which was cooked perfectly and made better by the A1 inspired aioli, Gouda cheese, etc. The fries were good and crispy.
