She explained that she has an allergy to Mango Habanero sauce. Mango Habanero is one of the chicken wing sauces. We ended up having a conversation about allergies with the waitress. Their chicken wings are juicy and you get many sauces to choose from but my favorite meal was the Mahi Reuben Sandwich which was fantastic. Sweet, tangy and creamy so much better than corned beef. It did not taste fishy at all and the rye bread had the best buttery crisp edges. River Street Tavern is cozy, casual and it has a compact lay out. You get to relax and can have a conversation over a few beers and good food. Place gets busy but is not loud.

We placed an order that was nearly $100, and once again, items were missing from the bag. What made…read morethe situation worse was the customer service when we called. We were told we could "come back and get it," but the response came with an attitude--as if the inconvenience was ours to fix. I'm expected to drive 15 minutes back into town because items that I already paid for weren't put in my bag? This order was placed in advance, so there was plenty of opportunity to check the receipt against the items before handing over the order. For an order this large, I would expect someone to take a few extra seconds to make sure everything is there. Mistakes happen, and I understand that. But when the same issue happens twice, the least I expect is an apology and good customer service--not an attitude while telling me to make another trip to correct someone else's mistake. Very disappointing experience, especially after spending nearly $100

Family attempted to dine the night before but only one server was on shift as they warned us so we decided to return and give them a shot 2 afternoons later before leaving town. They were still understaffed but not as busy so we risked it all and wasn't too disappointed. Our server was nice and friendly and checked up on us and service was fast and professional. Always love their salad bar and they have a great variety of salad toppings and dressings, along with cold salad options. Everything was fresh and nicely chilled and refreshing as they should be. Our food came out timely and fairly quickly. Everything was hot and fresh. Your classic Ruby Tuesdays always hits the spot and makes you feel welcome with their standard decor that's basic and simple.
