Nestled by the Missouri River, this restaurant offers a picturesque dining experience, especially from its patio. While the ambiance and scenic views are commendable, the food quality has received mixed reviews. Some dishes, like the steak tacos, shine, while others disappoint. The brunch options are flavorful but limited in variety, with a notable lack of breakfast-centric choices. Service can be hit-or-miss, with instances of friendly staff and quick service, contrasted by billing discrepancies and inconsistent drink preparation. Overall, patrons appreciate the setting and are willing to give the restaurant another chance, despite some culinary shortcomings.

My wife and I enjoy the atmosphere and river views at this restaurant. The food is usually delicious, but be cautious when ordering a signature non-alcoholic drink, as there seems to be a lack of consistency in their preparation.

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram at SNDTRAVELS and EATWELLTRAVELOFTEN Always looking for a a view with my meal it brought me here along the Missouri River. I arrived at 5:30 and while most of the inside was empty, I decided to wait for a patio table beside the river. Nice view. I ordered 1/2lb of wings dry with the sauce on the side and the Walleye cheeks . Both appetizers. The wings came out 5) with some kind of seasoning instead of dry but were good enough Idecided not to complain. The cheeks come in light breading and were off and on so far as tender or overcooked. I know small pieces like that are hard to be consistent in frying so no real problem. I had ordered ice tea but when it came outit was not very good. Not too many times I send back tea but I switched to Dr Pepper. The server Karie, was very friendly and helpful. The issue came at checkout. Putting it on the hand held computer, I never saw an itemized bill untilafter I had gotten a receipt and left. Looking at the receipt at the hotel I realized I had been charged for both the ice tea 3)and the DP 3) and also .75 for putting the sauce on the side as if I ordered extra sauce. I didn 't orderextra, I just had them put it on the side. Next time I 'll make sure I make them show me the itemized version up front. Overall is was good but just plain. Nothing special. You do pay extra for the view. Overall I would give them anothershot sometime but I 'll probably try someone else first. There 's just a couple of waterfront options.

I had dinner at this restaurant and the price per person was over $100. The food, service, and atmosphere all received a perfect score of 5. I highly recommend trying the Spicy Chicken Sandwich.

Randomly chose this place and didn’t know what to expect. Thought maybe it was gonna be princely because of the location which maybe? But we had the Wagyu (I’m curious if it’s actually from Japan tho… and the walleye sandwich. No complaints. Mybrother liked his burger and the fries were nice and crispy. The walleye was well seasoned and the sauce was nice. Don’tremember our server’s name but she was the only one there when we went and she was very kind.
