    Wow was I surprised by the mozz sticks and tenders. You can definitely go up on the spice here. I got medium spice level and felt like I could use more heat! They have an efficient ordering system, and the food came out hot and fresh. Mozz stick was super crispy with that classic cheese pull! Clean tables and fast turn around time.

    The server "Andrew " was very kind and helpful upon my visit , and even gave a little suggestion about adding kale slaw to my order . The menu was easy to read. And the scenery was something g out of a comic book . Lastly the food was incredible it wasn't my first time enjoying Dave's with friends but , this location is something you should try for yourself and thank me later!

    Dave's hot chicken is the BEST hot chicken in Riverside, I got the slider/tender and it was juicy and delectable.

My husband had seen a dog in one of their photos online and was trying to figure out what kind it was, and Ana knew right away! I ordered the OG Burger, my husband got the Z Dog, and we shared an order of tots. Everything was SO good! We both loved our food and will definitely be coming back. Great food and great service--thank you, Ana!

These aren't just burgers, they're the best rated LA burgers now brought to Riverside, and the hype is 100% real and deserved. What sets Urban Skillet apart before you even take a bite is the integrity behind the food 100% non-GMO, grass-fed, organic, and halal. You're not just eating something delicious, you're eating something you can feel genuinely good about. And the flavor? Every single item on the menu is addictive. I have yet to find a miss. The side sauces alone are absolutely elite!!!! The kind you think about days later and use as your excuse to come back sooner than you planned. Knowing that this place started from humble beginnings , literally setting up tents and grew into the brick and mortar gem it is today in Riverside makes every bite taste even better. You can feel the passion, the pride, and the hard work baked into everything they do. The staff moves at the speed of light, endlessly accommodating and genuinely friendly every single time. I've dined in and DoorDashed multiple times and it's always amazing, that consistency is rare and speaks volumes. Urban Skillet deserves every single star and more. A true Riverside treasure.

    Reading some of the previous reviews gave me a chuckle. What do you mean it was too cold inside?…read moreYou're about to stuff your face over an open fire grill. Don't want to be sweating while you're eating. Coming from highland/redlands, I am happy that there is a ayce kbbq spot in close proximity. Starting with cons: the parking is absolutely terrible. Parking spots are cramped and there's simple not enough spaces, especially during peak times. Pros: now as a long time ayce bbq lover, I understand that red castle quality is not top tier and I don't expect it to be when I go. I view red castle as an affordable joint to get my brisket and beef belly fix, which are the only two items that I basically get. It's odd reading about others experience with service, because every time I go, the service is always fast. I don't need to ask for the grill change because they are fully staffed and consistently checking in. Sure, the hospitality could improve a little but realize what you're going in there for. To stuff ya face! If you're coming here and comparing this place to other kbbq joints, you'll surely be let down. But to enjoy ayce protein for ~25 bucks without having to clean and prep a solid meal, many would realize the true gem that is Red Castle. I remember when their ayce was 13-15 bucks when they opened. Those were the days. I'm also glad that they allow single dining during the week. Not something that I'm able to take advantage of most of the time bc of work but I'm glad it's offered. To all the kbbq snobs (I'm one of them still). Go pay 40 for ayce somewhere else and be happy. Red castle is my go to for a quick fix that is close to home and affordable.

    Let's be honest .. this place is very MID KBBQ . The wait times are ridiculous and parking is a…read moredisaster especially on a busy street tucked close to a residential neighborhood. I wouldn't call this place BEST in the IE even if call it a place that's somewhat budget friendly in addition to a service fees and adding on the tip for service that's bare minimum. Quality of meats very fatty & poor & the ban chan (side dishes) are extremely overly saturated with sauce and Kim chi that wasn't fresh it was more on the SOUR and just disgusting in flavor , texture and color it doesn't seem Authentic if you know the difference of real Kim chi from other restaurants. Made several attempts to flag our server which seemed flustered and overwhelmed just for ordering extra meats and replenishing our beverages was such a huge in convenience. For KBBQ definitely in this order I'd say .. local restaurants I'd rather go to Wang Cho in riverside or chino hills U grille 2 spots in Rancho Cucamonga and As far as ayce self serve Koreana grille Riversde . If you wanna travel out hit up Orange County , Rowland heights , LA , SGV for the real deal . Would i dine here again , negative it's disgusting and poor quality of meats very fatty and rubbery texture and ban chan & soups that aren't authentic this restaurant is catered to a particular budget demographic and everything isn't just poor quality. Eating kbbq is more than just eating meat & drinkin beer .. Realistically but do what you wanna do ..
