This is one of the best restaurants in the tristate area! Ever since we moved to AZ two years ago, my wife and have been coming here as often as we can. The food is alway great and the staff treat us like family. If you're a local who's never been, or passing through, please show support for this awesome gem!

It's so hard to find gluten free options in this town but we stumbled on this place and I'm so happy!!! The server was so sweet and the food was really good and priced very reasonably. We ordered apps and entrees with a few drinks. They do pour strong :) Will definitely go back.

Food was good, service was pleasant and efficient. Easy stop for travelers along the 40. Nice view of the river.

Oh my goodness. We were stranded for an hour while a family member was taking an extremely important call. They let us bring our dog in (granted, it was not busy at all) and were so kind and friendly. The service was fantastic. The waitress Cassanda is just an angel. Not to mention their food was great. Amazing mozerella sticks. Possibly the best mozerella sticks I've ever had. This place was a beacon of hope in the 116 degree heat. Please do go to this location!!!

This place is awesome..what a location! Great staff as well. The pizza is amazing. Great spot to dock up and enjoy lunch

Found this restaurant while out for a walk! Truly a hidden gem. Beautiful view of the colorado River while we ate. The fish and chips are excellent and I consider myself a bit of a fish and chip expert the staff was so friendly and the owner who unexpectedly had to bring her puppy to work, let us have her under our table while we ate. She was adorable and very well behaved. We were in a party of 4 and all ordered differently and everyone was pleased. Steady flow of locals picking up food to go. Obviously a popular local place to eat.

Best pizza and great service! The owner, Cinderella, was so cordial and greeted every customer who walked into her restaurant. She treats you like family. This was our second visit because the food is delicious and the restaurant is super clean. Looking forward to the next visit! Thank you Cinderella!

Lovely spot on the river. We were there just before closing on a slow night. The food is ok and the service is friendly. The river front is what sells this place and to be able to enjoy a meal while sitting by the dock is a treat for this Iowa native.

BBQ Chicken Pizza with pinapple red onion red sauce with garlic Sat at the bat excellent service...and beer.....watched the river and boats...
