What an awesome find! The Owner was so kind to our 7yr old pouting daughter (don't even know why…read moreshe was pouting). He worked to cheer her up and told us the story of his place and about the area. He even suggested a little farmers market around the corner that had the BEST Carmel Apples! I would come back just for that. The food was amazing. Ribs were perfectly tender but not mush. Little bit of bite and right off the bone. Great smoke and lots of flavor. $36 for a full rack of St.Louis ribs and it was huge. Deal! I will absolutely come back for Brisket some Friday. Worth driving to from GR

This is Crispy rangoon pockets filled with fried duck bacon blended with sweet corn and cream cheese inside a fried wonton. Served with spicy honey. This was one of the best thing's I've eaten in years. They are absolutely delicious. I also ordered their 3 Meat Smoker Bbq combination ($40). I got Ribs, Brisket, and Smoked Wings. Served with baked beans, potato salad, and corn bread. The Ribs werd delicious. Tender and very tasty. The brisket was very good. The wings were good, but small. I got the Bourbon sauce and their Bbq sauce. The Bourbon sauce was excellent and the bbq sauce was tasty, but I definitely preferred the bourbon sauce. The baked beans were excellent. I'm a little bit of a baked bean snob, and these pass my test. The potato salad was okay, but I didn't finish it. The Cornbread was also excellent! The service was were this place failed brilliantly. I walked in and was ignored by the older lady who was having a slow conversation with another customer and didn't even acknowledge me. I decided to use the restroom. When I came out there was a girl on the phone for 5 minutes for someone making a reservation. Again didn't even acknowledge me. Their was the older lady standing back by the bar, looked like either an owner or manager, just having a conversation with another employee the entire time. Just ignoring me. Finally a waitress walked up after waiting way too long and asked If I'd been helped. After being seated it took almost 10 minutes to get served. The place wasn't even 50% full, so there was no excuse. After finally ordering the service was hit or miss. Okay for a little bit then absent again. When I was actually served it was very friendly. I was considering ordering one of their new shakes, but with the absentee service a d her nit even asking if I wanted dessert, I decided against it. Overall the rating is difficult. The food and atmosphere definitely deserve a 5. The service was so bad the rating should be a 3 at best. However considering those Wontons I'll give the place an iffy 4 star review! Would I return? If only for the Wontons than an absolute yes.

The first choice was unavailable, then the second, then the third. After joking with our server that if the fourth beer wasn't available she should just bring us both Cokes, she returned to let us know that one was unavailable as well. To her credit, she did bring the Cokes!! After placing our order, there was a lengthy wait before any food arrived. We were at the restaurant far longer than expected for a meal consisting of soup, salad, and a steak dinner. Unfortunately, much of the food was barely warm, and some items that should have been served hot were cold. My husband ordered the porterhouse steak with French onion soup, waffle fries, and coleslaw. I ordered the fried goat cheese salad and onion petals. The waffle fries and onion petals were cold when served. When our server checked on us, we politely mentioned the issue. The waffle fries and onion petals were remade, but while the fries came back hot, the onion petals were still cold. Beyond that, there was little effort made to address the rest of the meal or improve the experience.

Waited for 15 minutes with only one other table in the entire place, no menus, ended up getting them ourselves from the servers station. Waitress was very nice, but took 20 minutes just to come get our drink orders. She came back and retook the order probably 3 or 4 times even though she wrote them down and put them into the computer. Brought out 3 of 4 drinks, came back 5 minutes later and asked if we needed anything else, umm, the 4th drink? And then finally our food order was taken. Waitstaff were so friendly, but come on, it was empty in there and there were 3 waiters. Food comes out. Most were pretty good but Rueben was 70% sour kraut and the corn beef was low quality. Cute and clean restaurant. Poor service. Low quality food for the price. Hate leave a poor review, but Riverstop did not deliver.

For our meal, I ordered the Pork Schnitzel with squash and zucchini and my wife got the whitefish that was one of the specials. The schnitzel had an incredible mushroom sauce and was cooked perfectly with the right balance of crispy and tender. We had a great time and plan to make the drive there regularly!
