The menu may be small, but every item is thoughtfully done and excellent -- quality over quantity. The atmosphere is welcoming, the customer service is outstanding, and the drinks are solid.

Hello! I recently dined at ProAbition over the weekend…read morewith a couple of friends. This was my first visit. My friends and I were in Riverside for a concert at the Fox Theater. It was a beautiful day so we dined outside on the patio. I enjoyed lunch (Cesar salad with grilled shrimp) and the Brussels sprouts bowl my friends and I shared was exquisite! Definitely have to return for those and the atmosphere was very delightful. The manager Michael seated us and was very pleasant. Dania was our server and she was ver y nice as well. My only complaint were the flies that gathered around the food during our meal. I guess. That's expected when eating outside.

I ordered the meatloaf for dinner at the suggestion of the server. I was between items and they said that the meatloaf was the best. I cannot believe this. When it arrived, it was sitting in a pool of oil. The meat tasted sour and the mashed potatoes below were soaking in the pool of oil. I took a few bites before I just had to stop. It was terrible and I was shocked. Quite the bummer.

Breakfast offerings were the buffet or a cook-to-order option. I chose the cook-to-order as the buffet was light on selections. For $20 a standard breakfast was a good choice as it included coffee. The meal was delivered promptly and tasted great. The coffee was smooth without bitterness. No issues with gluten-free as I just ordered with no toast. Staff was great; very helpful and friendly, making sure I had a to-go cup of coffee out of the carafe on the table. Great experience and worth the money.

The ambiance was everything I love in small business and it truly was a hidden gem with unforgettable seasonal cocktails (I still won't forget the time I went when you had fried pickles - and was sold out ).

And she. Quickly runs over and tells him no. No dancing here stop!! Weird. So I go ask her why, he can't dance with them She says he's blocking the dance floor, with dancing.

This is such a fun place to experience in Riverside. It is run by culinary students and although it…read moreis sometimes very obvious this is the case, I really enjoyed being part of that learning experience! The food is good enough and with the great prices, it's well worth it! The menu rotates every week with a few staple items (burgers, side salad, etc.). It's posted on their website every Tuesday. When I went the two entrees were fried chicken and trout ($10.50). Both were good and came with a side soup or salad. The chicken came with beans, collard greens, and corn bread. The tout came with potatoes and greens. The desserts were ok- the banana pudding was standard, the "cheesecake" wasn't as expected. Note that they close during the Summer!

The staff and kitchen are all student students of RCC. The service was generally good although a bit uneven. For example, we didn't bread at the start and they just never brought it despite realizing later. But everyone was very nice and you could tell they were trying hard. The menu is interesting and there is always a burger, pizza, and salad option. Other stuff rotates so that's what I tried. The trout was fine but nothing to write home about. The burger was also meh but serviceable. The Cuban bean soup I got with it was tasty but too salty. Desserts were both good (see photos). The ambiance is actually surprisingly nice. Well lit and most of the clientele are professionals out for lunch. I will end on the most important point, which is that the prices are really cheap compared to sit down meals pretty much anywhere else you would go. You are also supporting the RCC culinary school students get practice at their trade. We definitely come back.

Now let's talk about the food, this is the third time I've come here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Each time it's been a thrill for my mouth. I first tried lunch and had a great hamburger juicy and full of flavor, worth coming back and trying another. Next I came for dinner and tried thier fish and chips, which were crispy and delicious and the chips were nice and fluffy. Next I had breakfast and ordered the Chicken fried steak, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, my eggs came out just the way I wanted them and the hash browns were nice and crispy. Over all this is a place to try, come on out, you won't be disappointed.

So we stopped in to try the fish and chips and one of had fish tacos.. The Fish and Chips weren't bad.. Probably the best I have had in a while..The fish was crisp and moist inside.. Pieces a bit on the small side, but were good. The fries were crisp and hot like the fish when arrived to the table.. The coleslaw was the only thing that was lacking flavor.. Fish and Chips a solid 3 out of 5.. There was confusion in the price and we had a menu that had a lower price then what it really was and we were told we pay the higher price as that menu was an old menu, that our server handed to us.. The fish taco plate was good, but they drenched the tacos in a white sauce that made the taco impossible to eat by holding them. Super Messy and had to eat with a fork.. Our Server wasn't very attentive and focused more on other tables that weren't in the room where we were seated by the emergency exit. So in all.. The food was good and I would probably return to try the food again.. The ambience and quality of service was a struggle..
