If you are looking for a family restaurant with great food and service, this is the place. So many menu options, it’s hard to decide what to get. Portion sizes are very large and the prices can’t be beat. My kiddos have plenty to choose from as well. This is our favorite place to eat when in town.

Western omelette was good. Would rather have wheat toast instead of white, but still a very good breakfast. Would definitely come again.

Our server, Sandy, did an outstanding job at breakfast. Our breakfast was delicious. The Cook deserves recognition as well! The presentation of our food was recognized, as well as very delicious

Liver and onions, chicken fried steak, delicious and plentiful. French onion soup was loaded w onions. Bacon cheddar mashed and gravy on the side. Rolls were fresh and soft. Cool, crisp salads. We'll b back!

We were headed to another restaurant when my Wife suggested that we try Rivertowne. We had never been there before so we entered with open minds and empty stomachs. The atmosphere was nice, friendly and welcoming. The service was great, all of the staff seemed busy but not too busy to chat a bit. Our food came out quickly and in proper order. Meaning the soup came out first, we had time to eat it then we did not wait long at all for the main course. Well done. My Wife had French Onion Soup and it was outstanding. She had the meatloaf which she enjoyed so much I snuck a piece. I had Chicken Fiesta Quesadillas and a side dish that I forget at the moment. All of it was very, VERY good. I also ordered a large Italian Sub and fried breaded cauliflower to go. I forgot to tell the waitress No oil or Mayo. It had both, my fault. But what happened was, I'm putting it on my subs now, I've gone over to the Dark Side... But it was Delicious and a Happy mistake. The only small complaint was with the seafood chowder or bisque, I don't remember the wording but it was Bad. It was so thick when I turned a spoonful upside down, it didn't fall off. It tasted like starch or another type of thickener was used. There wasn't much crab to be found or even crab flavor. Not the end of the world, some may prefer it that way, not me. Anyway, we will be back, as I wrote, I loved the Italian Sub and just about everything we ordered that day and I want to stop back to try Buffalo Wings, Stromboli, Pizza and a few other appetizers. I'm very happy my Wife changed our plans and went here, I'd recommend Rivertowne to everyone and as I mentioned, I Will be back.
