There was a balcony outside and we were right on the river. We thoroughly enjoyed just sitting and watching the river spill over the boulders, it was amazing and even the sound was beautiful . We left the windows open so we could hear the sound of the rushing water as we fell asleep. We ate three meals at the restaurant There were three of us so nine meals total and everything was delicious. Entire staff was so sweet. My mother and I are in walkers and there were a few stairs, but they were set up where we were able to make it up and down easily . staff was so friendly offering assistance at every. FIVE STAR FOOD!

After a multi hour road trip, my friend and I Denise got here. It was the last intentional spot in…read moreour day. But there was something we had not considered, we were going to be going to a place that required us to be fresh and ready to receive the wonder of place by a lack and we only had the energy for an angry stop at a gas station. So this place I visited when I was tired and that kind of gunked up the experience. If I would have gone with more energy to fully open my eyes than this experience would have been wondrous. When I booked the reservation I did it because it was a place by a lake. I enjoy water front dining and I usually use an ocean for scenery and today I was in a place where I could use a large creek. And since I was not going with any specific expectations that lake hit me like a bucket of wow. I remember like seeing the mouth of the lake going down like actual rocks. Like I was seeing the waters that people raft on with commitment to the outdoors. It felt like I had traveled into a place where trees were purest, bird melodies were the only noise in town (besides the water running in the creek), and cabins belonged to those who called the mountains home. I was in a novel and for some reason I felt like it was written by Twain. And that is really what I can say about this place. That is mostly what I remember the beauty of the creek. I wanted to spend more time there, I could have walked it, they had like a lounge but I did not. But I do remember the forested view that went on, and the roaring, jagged leg being a central character other than that I have small things to say. I remember the salad being ok. Denise and I shared a dish, I can't remember why but we did not eat the whole thing. It was inherently bad. But this could have been an off night, or just not the dish of the place, and really you go here for the lake, and the food was great in some ways just not in this specific way. I went to this place a few weeks ago, and, if I had not make it clear I remember the experience of being with the lake. So go here for that experience and let the rest just fall into place.

Whether you're seated inside or out on the patio, the peaceful scenery--rolling greens, distant hills, and open sky--creates the perfect backdrop for a relaxing meal. The menu is just as impressive as the setting. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors that elevate classic favorites.

- River View Grill & Bar (Three Rivers)…read more My girlfriend and I recently went back to River View Grill & Bar in Three Rivers after not visiting for quite a while. I hadn't been there in at least five years, and it had been over a year since my girlfriend last visited. Unfortunately, this experience was noticeably worse than what we remembered. The location itself is still beautiful, and the river view is definitely the main attraction. That part hasn't changed. But the food quality, consistency, and cleanliness left a lot to be desired this time around. To start with drinks, my girlfriend ordered a Whiskey Sour, both of which she enjoyed. I ordered the spicy Bloody Mary, which was honestly disappointing. It tasted watered down, bland, and not spicy at all. It did come with a generous garnish including bacon, celery, and cucumber, which was nice, but the drink itself lacked flavor. For appetizers, we ordered boneless wings with ranch. Our actual waiter, Juan, was excellent throughout the meal. He was friendly, attentive when he could be, and clearly working hard. Unfortunately, most of the issues came from the food runner/expo staff rather than him. When the appetizer plates and utensils were brought out, the top plate was visibly dirty with leftover sauce and crumbs still on it, even though it appeared to have gone through the dishwasher. The napkin wrapped around the utensils also had sauce smeared on it, and one of the forks had crusted residue stuck to it. I had to wait over 10 minutes before I could flag someone down to replace everything. That alone was honestly a major concern because cleanliness and sanitation should never be questionable in a restaurant. For entrées, my girlfriend ordered the fish and chips with curly fries and said her food was good overall. I ordered the "famous" open-faced chili burger with curly fries. The burger itself was cooked correctly, but the chili was surprisingly bland and lacked the depth of flavor you would expect from something highlighted so heavily on the menu. On top of that, my plate initially came out with regular fries instead of curly fries. At that point, I honestly wasn't even planning to mention it because the experience had already gone downhill. But when Juan came by, he immediately noticed the mistake himself and went to correct it without me even asking. That reinforced my impression that the issues were not really coming from him personally. Unfortunately, when the replacement curly fries came out, they looked like scraps from the bottom of the fryer basket. Many were tiny, overcooked pieces and noticeably worse quality than the fries my girlfriend had received earlier. Overall, the experience just felt sloppy and inconsistent. Between the bland Bloody Mary, dirty dishes and utensils, incorrect food, low-quality replacement fries, and general lack of attention to detail from parts of the staff, it really changed my impression of the restaurant. The river view is still nice, but there are plenty of other places in Three Rivers where you can enjoy the scenery while also having a better dining experience. Sadly, this visit did not leave a good impression, and I'm not sure I would return.

So heading up to trails early in the morning and it's a lil after 8am and my son points this place…read moreout. The signs suggested place was open but it wasn't. Sobif they can remove signs before closing that would be great. We had our fun in the sun and my boys and I stopped here to have something to eat. They offer free Wi-Fi. The restroom had giant mosquitoes and looked dirty. Customer service wasn't the best either. After ordering my food I didn't know because this was my first time here, but the chips that come with a meal will be located to your left, and if you order a drink you pick up your own cup on the left side of the soda machine. I say this to you because it wasn't told to me and after receiving my food I had to get up and grab it myself. The food was not good good but it wasn't horrible, with that being said I wouldn't recommend this place at all. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and asked for EASY CHEESE and got so much cheese. The chicken was like shredded and cooked in something because it wasn't just basic plain shredded chicken. The blt was ordered for my son who said the bread tasted gross and sandwich had no flavor. Now how the heck can anyone mess up a basic blt‍. I ordered basic hamburger. Lettuce and tomato were great, it had too much special sauce and the meat was just meat. Their potato salad is actually some of the best I've ever had but the macaroni salad now if you like food that you can chew with no flavor then I highly suggest ordering the mac salad lol. There's a first for everything and also a last and this location was definitely that for us. Why did we eat the food? Well we used a lot of energy and needed to refuel our body, plus I hate wasting money so I was not about to throw the food away.

I didn't wanna fill up on beans and rice so I just went with an à la carte of three crispy tacos, and a tamale. I told her to put them all on one plate when they came out looking like the best à la carte plate I've ever seen; almost as if it was a menu item unto itself. Everything just had so much flavor, and the tamale is definitely in the top two of best tamales I've ever had. We will continue to come here after our Sequoia adventures for hopefully many more years to come

The first red flag should have been when we arrived at 10 a.m. and the front door was still locked, despite there being two groups on the patio and a couple of cars in the lot. We brushed it off, thinking maybe we'd just missed the breakfast rush. The service was slow, but that wasn't the real issue. The food quality was absolutely bottom of the barrel. Our orders were incorrect, they were out of basic items like milk, and the French toast tasted like it had been made with toilet water. It was completely inedible. After the French toast meals were removed, we still walked out paying over $70 for just drinks and two kids' meals. Completely unacceptable. Never again--we should've trusted our gut and left the moment we started questioning it. Save yourself the disappointment and go literally anywhere else.

I ordered my food around 8:30 pm tonight. Lady on phone said it would be ready in 15min. I got there about 8:50 and the food had just come out. Now about the food.. first off I have never been to a place that you can order steak with refried beans and Mexican rice. Lol..So I knew I had to order it! I ordered the rib eye steak, beans and veggies. I wasn't expecting anything great but let me tell you..the food was very good. I first took a bite of the medium rare steak and it was cooked perfect! Then I had to try those beans! And they were really good and the veggies were perfectly soft but not too soft. Usually when I eat at Texas Roadhouse their veggies are always too crunchy. So this was a big surprise. I will be here one more day and more than likely I will be coming back to eat in their outdoor dining area. Sometimes you just have to give something a chance.

We ordered a cheese pizza, salad bar access, and a Greek salad. The pizza was the highlight: the cheese was baked to perfection--golden brown, a little crispy at the edges but not dry--really delicious. The salad bar was adequate with a choice of iceberg or spinach and a selection of toppings. My main issue was the Greek salad: it was advertised with romaine but arrived with iceberg. When I politely pointed this out to a server, I was told they never have romaine. There was no offer to replace the salad, refund, or even a real apology. That lack of effort to correct a mistake was disappointing. Overall, great pizza and a just what you expect from a pizza place, but customer service could use improvement when things go wrong. I'd still come back for the pizza, but hope staff handle mistakes more proactively next time.
