    Riverside Grill - Fried pickles

    Wow. Glad we did a search and found the Riverside Grill -- we all loved our lunch. It was clearly a…read morelocals place (off major highways and all) and the food is freshly made in-house which is so uncommon now. I asked what they do best and the waitress confidently recommended catfish and proceeded to talk about the breading and all. A woman at a nearby table said "it's so good" and held up a piece to take a bite. I was sold and the crunch of the breading was awesome and the fish was amazing! The hand cut fries were great too. And because I needed more fried food, I ordered a side of fried pickles. Yum with ranch! My sister had the ribeye sandwich and wouldn't stop talking about how awesome it was. She loved everything about it. Made each of us try it. Talked about the marinade, the fresh mushrooms that were sauted and all the things. And the onion rings were so good she gushed. My brother-in-law had a brisket pastrami that he loved. We had a great server who was friendly, quick and knew the place inside and out! They have been traveling for three weeks and said this was the best meal of the trip! That definitely rates stars and a Yelp review!

    Food was pretty decent , table was clean and it had a diner vibe…read more Service was not very good tbh , place wasn't crowded when I came in only a few customers, took a bit before the waitress brought me a menu took awhile more before she came and took my order. She didn't bother checking on me for coffee refill ect I got tired of waiting to pay and walked up to counter to see if I could pay and leave. Had to wait for her and the cook till they finished arguing with another patron about a sandwich wrap. Took a few more minutes to get her to ring me up. The cook seemed irritated and told the lady "I'll remake it" If it was me seeing how annoyed he was I wouldn't eat that wrap. I won't be going back , my omelet was decent and would rate a 4 star but the service was horrible. Waitress seemed more inclined to gab with other staff or checking her phone than tending to customers.

    We have found that this is a wonderful place to eat, both booths and tables, chairs your choice…read more Waitresses are mostly very friendly and knowledgeable of items on menue, choices for breakfast, lunches are all really good, very nice portions are good, presentation of your order is very nice and smell's great. We have found everything we've ordered to have great taste and never leave hungry, most of the time take home left over because it's that good. It's a small little resturant very Quant and friendly. It's one of our favorite go to for breakfast, but has great choices for lunches as well. This is one of three where the have two sisters branch resturant, on the original downtown Farmington, Mo. And I assume #3 is downtown Park Hill, Mo. And we can tell you all three are about the same, we don't think you will dislike the food and any three of them, we have ate at all three and recommend all three in all areas. Thank management and owners for excellent shops and staff. We continue eating at all three in the future.

    Ate here for breakfast after moving my son and his family to town…read more If you're looking for a good ole fashioned diner/cafe, then this is your place. I ate classic eggs bacon and hash browns with English muffins. It was great. It came out cooked exactly like I requested. My favorite part is they have apple butter! I love apple butter. Anyway, the service was great. The staff was friendly. It's a normal cafe so the atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect. The only part I didn't care for was the taste of the coffee. It's not bad by any means. I just didn't care for it. It wasn't bitter. It wasn't old. It's just different. Other than that, prices are fair. I'll definitely eat here again when we are in town visiting the grandkids.

    This place is fine to go to during the week day with family…read more The outside and inside of the establishment is a bit outdated. When you walk in, there is a waiting area in conjunction with having a drive-thru. The typical wait time is supposed to be 30 minutes, but I only had to wait for 4 minutes which was nice. The hostess took me to my table. As im approaching my table the floor felt greasy and there was crumbs and napkins I saw on the ground at various spots. I was greeted by a server and she introduced herself. Her name was Jaycee. I really appreciate her hospitality. She gave us some pickles which was so sweet and delicious. When ordering food, my spouse ordered the Catfish meal w/cucumber salad and okra. I ordered the Crabcakes with Coleslaw and Mac n cheese. My spouse loved the Catfish and the sides. I did try a piece of the Catfish and it was good for me too. When it came to my food, I thought it can be room for improvement. The Crabcakes were fried. They were a bit overcooked but, I still ate it with cocktail sauce. The coleslaw was advertised as "creamy", but instead it was watery. I did not finish this side item. The Mac n cheese noodles were a bit overcooked but the taste was there. I could not finish eating this side item either. I did purchase the Carrot Cake and I ATE EVERY LAST CRUMB.

    I love good catfish. Problem is, it's hard to find. It's usually cold, rubbery, and/or poor in…read moreflavor. Well none of that applies to this place. This place was everything I was hoping. The locals said it was great and they weren't lying. The waitress was great and very attentive. The place was clean, which is hard to do with fried foods. I'll definitely be eating here again when I'm in town. Loved it.
