My family had a wonderful experience! We had a battleship burger, BBQ chicken wings, and a grilled cheese with fries. They were all delicious. Also, we didn't have to wait for a long time to get our food. The server was kind and friendly. We'll definitely come back!

First time here, Riverboat Depot you nailed it! Arrived at 6:45sh on a Saturday night to avoid a dinner rush. Cute place, well layed out, and beautifully decorated for Christmas. My husband and I don't go out to eat much anymore because the food and service always sucks, not here. Anna was an awesome server. Nice, outgoing, and funny. We didnt have to wait for anything; greeted and drinks right away, food took only 10 minutes. Didn't have to wait at all for a second drink, a huge plus. She did not hover or bother us but was visible if we did need anything. Able to get and pay bill immediately which is also a huge huge plus for us. Kitchen rocks too!! 10 minutes to get our order? Wow. Burger and fries were great and what might not be a big deal to some, but on a what i think was a hom

Even though I didn’t get food that day, I’ve heard plenty of great things about their menu from locals, and after being there, I can absolutely see why people love this place. The atmosphere is exactly what you’d expect from a small-town bar in the best possible way: comfortable, welcoming, and full of character. The staff made a great first impression — friendly, attentive, and easy to talk to without ever feeling pushy. Even the other customers added to the vibe. It felt like the kind of spot where everyone knows each other, but newcomers are still welcomed right in. It’s the kind of bar that makes you feel at home the moment you walk th

★★★★★ 5.0 Dan Nitro Kurowski · Jul 2025

Great service and food, the atmosphere is a bit dive bar though. It wouldn't take much to clean up the atmosphere a bit. They have a patio on the riverside which is great, but they still are not fully capitalizing on the great river views!
