We went with a group of 38 people while touring the Oak Ridge area. We called in ahead and were seated in groups of 8, 6 and 4. Our servers were attentive, the service was timely and the prices are reasonable. Everything about the place was excellent. Excellent location, atmosphere, food, and the staff was very accommodating. A very pleasant... More

I was here in March with business colleagues. There were 20 or so in our group and everyone had a good meal. The service was excellent and staff very friendly and efficient . My salmon was very good, tender and fresh. Tech surprise to me was the dessert, I never expected it but the key lime pie was delicious, Tart... More

My wife and I visited Riverside during a recent business trip. We sat on the patio and its was great! Nice view of river and weather was perfect. Wait staff was very attentive and pleasant , I had filet kabobs with wild rice and house salad and my wife had blackened grouper with fresh green beans and salad. We both... More

The food was very good, but we waited again for the check. Probably an hour and a half in the restaurant to order, eat and pay for two burgers. Very nice setting by the river, and the... More

This could be a shining gem, located riverside, with outdoor seating. The management has turned over, and the food is not exceptional. The prices are high for the quality. Such a shame. They could be so very special....... So, if you don't mind spending a lot of money to sit by a beautiful river, and eat ordinary food. You will... More

Not much to say other than the place is impressive by Oak Ridge standards. The food quality is very good and the atmosphere is lovely. The view of the lake is very nice on days that the weather cooperates. We did not have a reservation but we didn't have to wait very long in the bar until our table was... More

Impressive menu and food quality very good. We had lunch at a non-busy time so service was very good. Manager took the time to find out how our meal was which was a nice touch. I would go again.

I hadn't been to Riverside Grille since the change in ownership. The staff is friendly and the food is good. I wouldn't say it's the best food in the world but I enjoyed it. The view, as always, is wonderful. I will go back. The problems I have with the place are non food related. Their garish digital sign by... More
