Riverside Grill & Bar

My friend and I have been coming to this restaurant for many years, and will continue to go.We have always loved their great customer service since everybody is always so friendly and the owner has an amazing sense of humor..We love everything we've ever had from their menu..They have indoor and patio seating and their patio has heaters and fans too to accommodate their customers with the weather.. if there isn't enough parking, you can park in the back street, where the car wash is...

If you're trying to enjoy breakfast, in a friendly atmosphere, where you don't have to listen to bad dry jokes, or wanna be judged by how you drink your coffee, then STAY AWAY from this restaurant.Not sure if the host /Owner was having a bad day, or he just has a very bad confrontational attitude.The wife and I, with our 1 year old decided to give this place a shot, after living in Chino for 15 years and never even noticing the restaurant as it's pretty hidden next to a car wash.We got there, was greeted by the host, then we asked for a table for two, and a high chair. Then he responds, well I see more than 2, so maybe a table for more? I said, oh yeah my 1 year old as well..We get to the table, and I asked for a high chair please, then he responds YEAH I KNOW, I'm getting it... Was kinda weird response as I asked politely. I have a pretty thick skin, so this didn't bother me much, but that was just the beginning. We order our drinks and I get iced coffee and asked for a side of creamers. I used the 5 creamers for the coffee, then I ask the host/waiter/ for some more creamers, then he responds "oh wow I didn't know you were gonna drink your creamer with some coffee." very dry joke, and not even in a funny way. Sorry you have to bring me a few more creamers. Maybe stop offering coffee if additional creamers hurt your business.The food gets there, good size portions and good taste. I finished my coffee, and I ask if they had flavored creamers for the refill, the same waiter says "yeah we do but we're gonna have to charge you for them, so do you really want them?." I said, oh no thanks. Then he laughed and said he had vanilla and caramel. I ask for both...A few minutes pass by and different waitress comes by, I asked for the creamers and she said no worries, then the waiter come back and says, yeah I don't know why she's so nice. At this point I had enough of his dry jokes, then I said, yeah maybe it'll help the review later, and he responds "omg I'm scared..." very sarcastically putting both of his hands on his face in this position then walks away.After that it just didn't feel right, we finished our drinks and they kept passing by, and they wouldn't refill our drinks or wouldn't even drop by the table.My wife at some point asked me to ask for a box to go for her, because she didn't wanna "get roasted" by the waiter with his humorless jokes or come backs, as every time we asked for something, there was some smart remark or really bad dry joke.He put is in a very uncomfortable position, whether to stay and finish our food or leave because of how he was treating us every time we asked for something. The atmosphere didn't feel right, we weren't getting our refills, the guy kept passing by and it just didn't feel right. In the end we didn't finish our food, we just wanted to get out of there. Not mentioning that it was about 100' degrees that day and all they had was a fan on. They seem friendly to other people that they knew, not sure what the issue was with serving us.Food portions were decent, quality was fair and prices were good. I would have given this place another shot if it wasn't for the horrible experience.We will not be coming back, we like to support local businesses, but this one didn't feel right.P. S if the manager or owner are reading this, relax on the dry jokes, focus on the service. You treat people with respect, if the reason you looked down on us was because you own the business and we were just a burden when we asked for creamers or refills, you shouldn't be serving anyone. Go sit in your office and manage the business from there, you have no customer service experience.

This place is always buzzing. Michelle always takes good care of me. It's nice to come in for a quick bite or to stay a while and talk with friends. This place is clean, inviting and convenient. Whatever they're doing they're doing it right because everybody smiling.

I haven't been here in a while, but it was amazing. Still the same nothing changes. The food is outstanding. I got BLT and added an egg. It was delicious.

A Chino gem! If you have not tried this place, you definitely should. I have gotten the Turkey Excellante for two decades. I hear there are many good things, but I never get enough of this one. Great food, great service and great people.

Delicious breakfast Chillaquilles toasty & spiced to perfection, portions were decent. They also serve all your favorite traditional breakfasts! Our waitress was fun & attentive deserving of Tip. I was in bit of a rush but got seated right away, after that it got sooo busy .... Seems to be a neighborhood favorite. Our table for 2 was comfy. My coffee was good & Are you an Early Bird, then no worries cause' Parking is limited, carpool or get dropped off.

We always come here while our car is being washed. Perfect little place with plenty of inside and outside seating. Tried the lunch as we usually always get breakfast! Everything was delicious! If you're there for breakfast, get the chilaquiles!

Food was great and service was excellent. Definitely recommend. We sat outside because the weather was perfect

Service was pretty terrible and nonexistent. We waited around 15-20 minutes for our server to come over after being seated, only after an employee overhead us mention how long it was taking. Our server seemed bothered at every question and request. I substituted the bacon for sausage, yet was charged $4.50 for an "addition" which is wild. Most others establishments would simply consider this a substitution, no up-charge. Pros: food was good, however, won't be coming back given the lack of service.

Both the food and service have also been great here. An added bonus is the car wash right next door. I recommend the chilaquiles and the BLT omelet.
