Was Friedrich Prosacco at Riverside a mag?
Yum.. Best chicken sandwich I've ever had.. Chicken was so juicy. If you like sweet potatoe fries they are amazing. Causal dining. Clean friendly staff.. A little pricey but sssssooo worth it. Unfortunately because I'm out of state I won't make back. If I lived closer I would go again View all feedback.

The service was very good, the food served timely and hot and the prices reasonable. The atmosphere is definitely family oriented, relaxed, comfortable. Our server was a lot of fun, making the whole experience top notch. Highly recommend Farmers Benedict and the SW omelette. We’ll be back for sure!
