“Cool, unsuspecting restaurant. Had the tasting menu. The soup was excellent, and the walleye didn't disappoint either. Wasn't very fond of the dessert but to each their own. Bar tender/server was a nice guy who was enthusiastic about the food and drinks. With 3 tasting menus ordered in our party I expected the chef to come out and say hello. As a chef for the last 20 years this is the best fine dining meal I have had in the Grand Traverse area. Highly recommended.“

Small plate was perfect for us to share and highly recommend as wellEntrees we did the Duck cassoulet with Brussel sprouts and Tuscan Chicken paired with green beans….. both entrees we loved. My personal fav was the green beans for the veggie.Desert we had the tiramisu which was extremely light and the chocolate hazelnut bar which was rich and paired nicely with a cup of coffee.To top it off we enjoyed the atmosphere and the 2 person band who played beautifullyOur server Jessica was extremely helpful and delightful.I recommend all to come try!“

“Lovely small dining restaurant with high end quality meals. First meal here years ago were delicious fish tacos. The fish perfectly cooked. Jalapeno sauce great accent. This week i went for Traverse City restaurant week. Once again, a magnificent meal. I started with siraccha stuffed mushroom caps. I love mushrooms, so easy to please, although i really didn't catch the siraccha. I then had a steak in lobster sauce with shrimp. A side of scalloped potatoes. Absolutely delicious with the steak cooked exactly how i requested. For dessert i had the turtle sundae which was a wonderful finale. There was no disappointment. Highly recommend. Again and again and again...“

They want it to be affordable and WOW - a guy playing guitar, fresh lightly battered cod with homemade tarter sauce,brisket -tender with nice BBQ sauce, penne pasta with a meaty sauce, fresh veggies, homemade real mashed potatoes, chicken bites for the kids, corn and tater tots and ALL you can EAT. Everything was beyond good and the staff-Madison and the mgr Becky were awesome.This is a must try and wonderful place we will be at frequently - would love to give it a 10“

“Everything was phenomenal, the fries were amazing, sweet potato and regular. The burger was hefty and juicy, and the fried fish was crisp and delightful. By far the best thing we experienced was the soup! We had the Reuben soup, complete with rye croutons in it for a spectacularly flavorful crunch. My only regret is not getting more soup to go! The only thing I could improve would be the ribs. While they were fall apart cooked beautifully, the sauce is simply sweet baby rays, nothing made in house. That aside, the fireplace was warm and inviting, and it was hard to stop smiling while sitting near it. An absolute must go to if you're in the area.“

“You must get the Brussel Sprouts, enough for 3-4 people! Service can be slow at peak times but friendly. My vodka drink was weak. The food was served hot and was delicious. They'll let you substitute turkey insted of corned beef for the Reuben. The menu has something for everyone. The atmosphere of the inside is dated and could use updating. The outside of the Lodge was beautifully decorated with fall items.Wheelchair accessibility: No large steps. Restaurant is one level even to outside.“

“Our stay was great! The communication and check in went smoothly, the room was just as described and we enjoyed our stay. I believe that there was only one other room of guests but there were many patrons in the dining/bar area each evening and it was not noisy at all. The bedding was extremely comfy and the amenities were top notch! I highly recommend The Riverside Inn!“

“It's a casino restaurant, so I didn't have high hopes, but as it turns out, the food was really good. I had a burger and fries, and Tator Tots. Everything is done to perfection. But it is still a casino restaurant, so that is why I didn't rate it higher.“
