Is it even possible to have too much cheese? The answer, is yes. This taco salad would have been…read morebetter with less cheese, but it was still quite good. The shell was cooked perfectly and the ratio of ingredients (other than the cheese) was great. Service was good. I'll be back.

Interior is large and relatively quiet for how many tables they have. Came here on a Tuesday after golfing with a friend because it's halfway for both of us. They had a 14oz NY strip with two sides for $19.99 ????? I had to confirm this wasn't an error. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and had a great crust. This is a $45-$60 meal in Grand Rapids or Lansing. Quality, service and value this place is crushing it. If I am with in a 20 minute drive to here and need a meal this is where I'm coming.

We could see her running food and helping others well we were there. My husband got a beer and I got the strawberry lemonade. We ordered mozzarella sticks for an appetizer, they came out very fast and met expectations. Husband ordered a quesadilla burger and loved it! Very messy but worth it. 9/10 I got the french onion soup and a caesar salad. Love the salads because they are always so fresh! The soup was very warm but the perfect ration of cheese. 8/10

I chose River House Grill this trip since it was a beautiful night, and on the water. While getting off the interstate and heading in to town, I noticed this eerie presence, nothing was open, signs were dark, stop lights not working... I got to River House and a few regulars were still milling around the bar, I was told they were closed due to a power outage throughout the entire city. After some conversation, they said if I had cash, I could still buy a beer (always carry cash!). The regulars moved on, and I was finishing my drink when the power comes back on! The owner Mike had already sent most of his staff home, as the estimated power restoration was well beyond their normal operating hours, but he said he would turn the fryers back on, and start the pizza oven since I was there. I told him he didn't have to and I would head back to East Lansing, but he insisted, at this point I was the only one in the place! Ordered a pizza, and boy was it delish! By the time my pizza had arrived, a few others had managed to come in and fill up the place! Thanks to Mike, Jen (bartender) and the staff who stayed! I can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu, and see the renovations next time I'm in the area! Cheers!

Look, I rate local dive bars with 5s because we need them. Ryan's Roadhouse is bigger than a dive…read morebar, but equally needed in its way. Ryan's is where you go when your crowd is too big for the your hole-in-the-wall hometown dive bar or when you're feeling fancy. It is a large space with bar and table seating. Depending on where you enter, you might have to go around the bar to find the host, just keep going. You'll find the seating. If you're in need of a banquet (up to maybe around 100 people?), they also have a well-appointed basement that you can rent, and they will cater your event. Back to the standard bar-restaurant area, they now have digital menus which work well, and they will teach you how to use them. There are specials on the landing page, and then sections for burgers, sandwiches, meals, etc. A wait person will still take your order and handle substitutions, requests, and recommendations. Service is solid, and the food is good. The menu is a bit too broad for it to be great food, but they do a wide variety of things surprisingly well, so you're safe ordering almost anything, though I would question the salad bar, not from Ryan's perspectives, but the guests. Cheers.

We took a chance with their parking lot being big enough for our rig. It definitely was and could fit a few if ppl with rigs or trailers parked correctly. The food was really good. Entrees come with soup and salad bar. It's small but just fine. I had the Mahi bowl. It was light but good flavors and not over cooked. Hubs had the Not Your Mama's lasagna.
