What Misty Newsome likes about Burra Burra On The River:
The food was amazing. The cheese sticks are a must-have!! Every one of the staff that we encountered were very polite and very engaging in conversation. This is definitely a place I would revisit and recommend to anyone traveling through the area. ORDER THE CHEESE STICKS View all feedback. What DavidO doesn't like about Burra Burra On The River:
We used to frequent this restaurant for over 2 years and always enjoyed good service and food. However, with the recent menu change, we were disappointed to find that our favorite items such as the sandwiches, sweet potato fries, and steaks were no longer available. The ribeye I ordered was tough and grizzly, and there were no baked potatoes on offer. Unfortunately, we will not be returning and will be looking for a... View all feedback.

Burra Burra offers a varied dining experience that has drawn both praise and disappointment. While many diners appreciate the lively atmosphere and quality food—such as nachos and fried pickles—issues with service and menu changes have frustrated others. Recent alterations have removed beloved items, like sandwiches and steaks, leading to dissatisfaction with the food’s quality. Service inconsistencies, including long waits and miscommunication, marred several visits, though standout servers still shine. For those who value a relaxed ambiance, this might be worth a try, but be prepared for potential hiccups in service and food.

Food and service were barely mediocre. Fried Cheese logs were good, chips and salsa were terrible, which is hard to mess up. Great location on the river.
