Two Rivers Restaurant

I'm updating to a 5-star review after our Mother's Day buffet experience! Everything on the buffet was hot and fresh and they kept up very well with demand. We had made a reservation for a large group of 15 and our table was ready and waiting for us when we got there, despite them being very busy. Our server was attentive with drinks and refills as well as clearing plates. All in all a very nice dining experience, especially with all the staff shortages most places are experiencing!

Annie the GM needs a little basic training in restaurant mgt, service principles and promotion. Despite that the waitress gave us good service, there are good people here, good views but the good is spoiled by an anemic salad bar with stale bread. Slow on a Sunday late October and the lack of music makes it feel spooky/dead. Food was fair and the bourbon made things better. Cover the bread put on some music and never ever close the option of drinks from the bar. Start doing promotions to bring in the locals. We've come here at least once on a fall Sunday every year for 30 years and I've never seen it so slow. Sad. Marketing needed for a turnaround.

This os my second time here. Love the environment, the staff was very friendly and always checking on you. The buffet is small but the food was always warm and very good. Will come here again.

I spent a few days here for a retreat so had the opportunity to eat here several times. This is heavy southern food- all things fried, battered, and buttered. If you don't want that type of stuff, this probably isn't your spot. I'm not a buffet person at all but I appreciated the salad bar a lot. Breakfast buffet was typical- scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy, etc. The bacon was a highlight! Different entrees, sides, and deserts were offered for lunch and dinner. Fried chicken, catfish, barbecue, mashed potatoes, casseroles, and fried okra to name a few. They also have Happy Hour drinks. All the staff that I encountered at the restaurant were friendly.

I can honestly say I eat here just about every single day. There's a lunch buffet every day and a dinner buffet on the weekends and whenever there's a lot of people booked any particular night. They've started running specials most nights when there isn't a buffet and that's a nice addition to the regular menu. Everything is usually excellent and decently priced.

Went to the Sunday buffet (Aug 7, 2022). As usual the restaurant was understaffed (as almost all restaurants are these days). Though we did get good service from our waitress (sorry, I've forgotten her name!). The food/salad bar is what I ordered, and the food was pretty good. They don't open until 11:00 and only stay open until 2:00. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and some good views of the Ohio River. There is so much potential here. No comparison to Ledges Restaurant at Natural Bridge SRP. I've eaten there dozens of times, and always tasty and good.

Another Kentucky park that we visited that has really good food. I had the popcorn shrimp and my wife had the catfish. Two sides each came with the meal. Friendly service and good prices. We carried out our meals due to Covid. Both entrees were fried perfectly. Icedtea was fresh. Fantastic dining room that was spacious and fits perfectly with the State Park. Really clean. Enjoyed our meals. A gem in the woods.

Took a beautiful ride with our motorcycle group for lunch. We all purchased the buffet since it was reasonably priced at $13.99. Fried chicken, catfish, brisket were the main items along with #macncheese, green beans, and california blend. Beans and cornbread were another option as well as a dessert bar. Food was good but not great and service was friendly and fun. I'd go again if in the area but not make a special trip.

Temporary location while original location is remodeled. Service was excellent. The buffet offered southern comfort food. The fried Catfish was delicious. Very fair pricing.

Overall, not bad food but not great either. Buffet is consistent in quality and I love happening upon their fried chicken days. The fried fish is also good. Love the banana pudding! Like most KY state parks, there's a very run down feel to the entire lodge and rooms. See many better days I'm afraid.
