    From the minute we arrived the staff was welcoming, and the aroma of the food made us know as we had made a wonderful selection for our FRI night dinner! The staff - ALL of them - were so attentive and frequently checked in with us to make sure we were enjoying everything from our cocktails, appetizers & dinner. Pleasantly comfortable, we all declined dessert but confident that would have been just as enjoyable as everything else we ate! Looking forward to returning in the near future!

    We went to Riverside Kitchen & Bar to celebrate my birthday. We made reservations on OpenTable and had no issues. We went for brunch and the food was great. My husband and son got the biscuits and gravy. They liked it but it wasn’t their favorite. I got the breakfast burrito and could only eat half. They gave me a free dessert for my birthday and I enjoyed the homemade tiramisu. My husband got the brownie a la mode and my son got the chocolate torte. We may go back just for dessert. The service was great and we can’t wait to go back.
