My husband and I stay there every year. We love it so very much. Amazing staff, rooms are as adorable as could be and very clean. Not that it needed it, but it also just underwent some renovation, and it looks fantastic!! Can't forget the food. They have the best food in all of Michigan, hands down. I mean it, they really do. Delicious breakfast before 10 and all the fun you could want, just minutes (walking) away. We will always return!! ❤

We were in the area for a wedding, and were very busy,so didn't spend a lot of time at the Riverside and did not eat dinner there. We enjoyed the breakfast that was provided with our room. The staff was fabulous and friendly, even finding a quick snack for us when we rushed in to change clothes and hadn't had a chance to eat lunch. Our room was very comfortable - I always love a water view!

AMAZING salmon! Nice, romantic place to celebrate or just have a nice, high quality meal.

Service was professional and effecient, though not as friendly nor as informed as one would hope based on the type/price of service. Ordered a martini and it was served to me on the rocks. No big deal, that's my fault for not specifying that I'd want it up... However, most bars assume you'd prefer your martini up unless you specify otherwise. My wife tried to order an appetizer while I'd stepped away to the restroom. Server informed her that the chef prefers to receive the tables entire order (appetizers, salads, entrees, etc) all at once. I assume this allows the kitchen to time the courses more effectively, but we found it slightly inconvenient. Appetizer was mussels and they were flavorful though slightly overcooked, giving them a rubbery texture. Overall the Mussels were good, but I probably wouldn't order them again. For entrees my wife ordered the Scallops and I ordered the venison. Her scallops were exceptional. The sides and sauces paired perfectly with the preparation of the scallops. All were flavorful and prepared to near perfection. The venison was a perfect medium-rare, as ordered. While the meat was excellent, I didn't find the sides/sauces paired nearly as well as they had one the scallops. The sauces on the venison was good, and probably would have rated higher for me, but there was simply far too much of it. Being a sweeter sauce and served generously coating the venison, it simply overpowered the venison. The wine list was extensive, though it favored whites much more heavily than reds. the list of wines available by the glass was small and pretty ordinary which left me with no great options to pair with my entree. I decided to leave the pairing choice to my server and she returned with a wine that was adequateon its own, though not a great match for the venison. We opted to skip dessert as we'd felt a bit rushed by the pace of the appetizer and entrees. Overall I felt it was a good dining experience, but not a great one. It certainly didn't feel like it matched up with the service or quality of food that we've had at other similarly priced restaurants in the Traverse City area.

Very accommodating. Great food, service and atmosphere. On the river- not Lake Michigan- if you are looking to watch the sunset.
