What MonicaA doesn't like about Waterfront Grill:
Overall our experience was wonderful. We were seated promptly and our server was right on top of things. We had a bit of business to talk about and the noise level was perfect that we could all hear and did not feel as though everyone was hearing our business. The food was very good. We had hoped for more of a luncheon menu but were all able to get something that everyone could enjoy ranging from burgers, to poboys,... View all feedback. What Elizabeth Rose likes about Waterfront Grill:
Gracious staff, great food, cool history and a delightful view. If you're near Monroe, this is well worth a visit. I adored the whole experience. The turtles playing around in the river are an added entertainment value. The BBQ shrimp and those burgers...yum! View all feedback.
