I loved eating here! I had the Mt Jack Burger and it was amazing! The egg was delicious and the fries were tasty. My wife had the chicken tenders and she said they were to die for. The service was quick and attentive. The food was well worth the price.

Seven years of coming here, the place is so consistently good. When you hear Elmira Michigan , Railside Bar Grill should follow. The home of the amazing potato burger and roaster mushroom soup. They have amazing specials daily. It's the only place to be in Elmira Michigan. Have a wonderful polish meal here as well. The polish nachos is a must. I hope the place continues to be consistent with their food, price, staff, and atmosphere. A drive or visit thru Elmira is not complete without a meal from Railside Bar and grill.

Love everything about this place. They’re hitting everything they’re trying to be right on the nail. Best restaurant and bar around. Service is always great, love Tammy. Homemade, high quality, comfortable food. Love the fried walleye and the polish platter. I feel so pleasantly full and not wiped out after eating here which shows the quality of the food. Will always be returning here whenever I can. Would love to see Guinness on draft for the cold months a coming ;) such a delicious beer.

First time visiting this place and will definitely be back. Had to wait a bit for a seat but was well worth it. Very friendly staff. Beautifully presented food. No issues accommodating a special diet. Thanks 💜 😊

Have yet to have a negative experience here. I typically try somewhere at minimum twice before I choose to continue my patronage, and I'm happy to say Railside has seen far more of me than that. The staff are welcoming, and it retains the air of a local watering hole without discouraging newcomers. The food is always fresh and tasty (love the homemade fries!! Such nostalgia), and generous portions. Only downside is it's often packed, so sometimes my family and I go elsewhere when we were hoping to dine there (such a 'problem' I know...), and it's closed on Sundays and Mondays, which are actually days I'd like to be there. I just work around their schedule though, they need rest too!
