Love their Sunday chicken special for $12.99. Most amazing cinnamon rolls for sure! The pasta is better than Wrights farm pasta and I love that you can swap fries for mashed, baked or sweet potato. Updated atmosphere and indoor or outdoor dining is available. Parking isn't great- there is a lot across the street if the few places in front of the building are taken. Its a short walk but involves crossing a busy street- be careful at the cross walk. The service was friendly. They have $1 drink specials for those that enjoy a cold brew. I haven't yet gotten to try the Wednesday specials- two meals with dessert and a drink for $39 but am looking forward to my next visit

Only giving five stars because six isn't an option. The service and food and atmosphere were well above five star level. Parry of 7, every part of every dish was excellent. Fish, shrimp, tacos, fries, sweet potatoes fries, wings, Cole slaw, I could go on........only one server working and she was busy, but attentive. Plus we ate on the patio next to the rushing River. We will be back, and we live almost two thousand miles away with no connections to the area.

Went with a large party on Mother's Day. Some of our food came out cold, some of the basics just weren't very good (pancakes were tough, home fries were reheated and dry), and they were out of at least one menu item (French toast). We typically have good food here, but this day was not up to the usual standard, and the restaurant wasn't very busy. I would still go back, but not on a holiday.

We sat outside by the river unfortunately the Blackstone isn't the cleanest. I think they should spray the deck down with a natural spray to deter fruit flies and bugs a beetle wouldn't leave us alone and the fruit flies were awful. Maybe it was an off day but the lettuce on our sandwiches was brown and the bugs landed on my sandwich bun so much I just took it off. We'd like to try eating inside the menu had so many good things on it but because we were going to a concert at the Stadium we chose something light.

The food was not fresh or well cooked. The drinks were not well made. Service was slow.

We have been here before always enjoyed it but this experience was not good. Most of the food came out lukewarm at best. Rice was crunchy. Very long wait (over an hour) for food to be served. Not planning to go back.

Oh my goodness!! I was blown away at the service and the views! I felt like I was at a 5star restaurant in New York. It's been a while since I been there and wow is my word. We saw a crane fly in we sat by the water my shrimp tacos were so flavorful but careful they are spicy just ask for the boom boom sauce to be on the side. I also added avocado to mine that is extra. They are on the appetizer menu but I had them as my main corse for lunch they are big!! Definitely worth eating and buying! My mom had a build your own burger and she loved it with the side of thier AMAZING sweet potato fries.

For anyone hoping to relive the old days of Ma Glockners? you are better off just leaving it as a found memory. The chicken was still pretty good, but I was so disappointed with the cinnamon rolls. The service was also very slow.

The Baby back ribs were pretty good and slid right off the bone. The River provides a natural air conditioning and beautiful view.

What a surprise. first time at falls. Great old mill building right on Blackstone river. Great outdoor large patio right on river edge. Large menu selection. Very good service drinks and food. Lots of parking across street. Nice area. Several other restaurants within a block. Don't be fooled because it's woonsocket.

Amazing restaurant. Food is really delicious. They have daily specials now. I tried fried Ravioli and baked stuffed Haddock (you must try). It was cooked to perfection. Marinara sauce is homemade, and it taste perfect. Haddock was tender and stuffing was just out if the world. My server was really nice. I truly recommend this restaurant. Seems like recent 1 star reviews are fake (may be someone trying to ruin business, who knows. I will be back next week to grab Lunch Box special.

They have a new chef. The menu is much smaller. It's a 50/50 with the quality of your food. It used to be the best place for steak tips. Now, not so much. Their salads are awesome, as well as their seafood. If they have it. You have to ask the kitchen every time. My 10 year old loves the mac and cheese. It's something that is constantly good. The restaurant is clean and most of the staff is friendly with great service. They have outside dinning on a river which can be relaxing if it's not too hot out. Overall, it's enjoyable and family friendly.

My family went there today for a Father 's Day brunch. The location is a very good one, located on the banks of the Blackstone River. It is an old stone building having outdoor seating, but today was not conducive to eating outdoors. Indoors it 's fine, with industrial style exposed HVAC ducting. There were seven of us in our group. There wasn 't a big crowd. They have an extensive brunch/lunch menu. We all ordered, including three children. The adult beverages were OK, but drinks didn 't arrive together, with some taking much longer to be served. Kids ordered food off the children 's menu, and their food seemed good. But not many of the adults ' meals were. Two chicken dishes were very under-cooked and inedible. One Mexican meal was soaked through with sauce, not very good. Two omelette dishes were dry and almost seemed to be pressed flat. Home fries which accompanied each dish were bone-dry, and seemed to be machine-cut dice-sized pieces. On the other hand, my steak tips and eggs with eggs was good. The steak was cooked as I had ask for. So I was the only adult at the table who left the place happy. Lots of my family 's meals were left on their plates. I don 't like giving bad reviews. Take a look at my review history. But when I give Google a review I calls 'em as I sees 'em. We probably won 't be back. It 's too bad, too, because the atmosphere is terrific.

Extremely disappointed with the lack of communication with management... Made reservations 3 weeks in advance for a party of 10. Was informed after arriving and being seated that this was their 1st weekend serving brunch from 10am-3pm. No option changes allowed!!!! Our reservation was for 1:30pm no one expected to eat breakfast AGAIN . DID ANYONE in the entire establishment think to call to inform people NO

We went to a graduation party in the event room downstairs. Great size for the amount of people that were there.the food was amazing! Drinks were good and the staff were excellent. The atmosphere there is relaxing and the scenery outside is beautiful (considering the area it's in, it was still beautiful and relaxing! We also had a buffet style meal. Tortellini,grilled chicken with cheese, anti pasto , salad and the garlic bread was DELISH!

The service was enjoyable, the food was average, and the atmosphere could use some improvement. However, it was a pretty good experience overall. Price per person: $20–30. Food: 4/5, Service: 5/5, Atmosphere: 2/5.

The restaurant boasts a remarkable industrial ambiance, offering outstanding food and service at an excellent price. Both the food and service, along with the atmosphere, deserve an impeccable rating of 5.

Terrible experience at River Falls. We had a reservation for 1 PM, but when we arrived, the restaurant was closed. When we asked, they said they wouldn’t open until 1:30 PM. Then, at 1:30, they informed us they wouldn’t open until 4 PM, with no explanation given. Our group of 10, many of whom traveled a long way, will definitely not be coming back. Service rating: 1.

The adult drinks were overly poured but tasted off, almost as if there was an issue with the carbonation. The food was just average. The decor felt dingy and worn down. I was seated in a back area beyond the pool tables, even though the front area had nicer booths and seemed more inviting—quite a confusing layout. The waiter was friendly but not very engaging. The dessert was good, though I suspect the cooler wasn't cold enough since it was warmer than it should have been. On the plus side, the view of the river was lovely.

This restaurant was a huge disappointment. The meals we received were completely different from what we ordered, and we have no intention of returning. They repeatedly served us the wrong dishes.

This restaurant is not what it used to be. I visited on a Saturday night at 5:00 PM, and they had run out of fried clams, prime rib, baked stuffed shrimp, and iced tea. I had to choose something I wasn't really in the mood for. The food I did have was good, but it wasn't what I was hoping for. I don’t think I’ll go back, especially since there are better options nearer to Riverside.
