**Dining Experience at Riverside Diner: A Mixed Bag of Memories and Meals** Nestled by a rushing river, this charming diner promises a nostalgic atmosphere paired with home-cooked meals. Guests have praised the quality of the food, particularly the fried catfish, potato salad, and friendly service. However, inconsistent experiences plague the establishment. Some diners faced challenges with rude staff and limited menu availability, leading to disappointing visits, while others relished the modern remodel and efficient waitstaff. As outdoor seating becomes common, many hope for a return to indoor dining. Despite the ups and downs, the diner continues to evoke fond memories for loyal patrons, ensuring a lasting appeal.

Was Cheryl Welker at Bernadotte Cafe a mag?
You would think this little place would be much to check out it truly is delicious. We are from southern Illinois and as a child went there to get ice cream . I was so surprised to see they are still up and running strong. Delicious. View all feedback.

What Jon Jacobs dislikes about Bernadotte Cafe:
So, we made a special trip here just to eat at the diner again (like we did last year) I ly to be told this year we can't eat inside. Great food but if I wanted to eat outside I'd eat corn dogs and junk. Hopefully next year you will allow inside diners again View all feedback.

This restaurant is located in a picturesque setting by a rushing river, offering home-cooked meals and a welcoming atmosphere. There's also fantastic off-road cycling available nearby.

The prime rib was tender, flavorful, and cooked exactly as requested. The Bloody Mary was quite good as well!
