    Chicken Quesadilla
    Brian M.

    Nice cozy bar grill that has a neighborhood bar feel. Friendly servers and laid back bar area. Good food and comes out pretty fast.

    Beef quesadilla
    Michaele M.

    Came here for lunch. Neighborhood, hole-in-the-wall bar vibe. Decent prices. Beef quesadilla - good flavor but drenched in cheese and fat. I'm used to quesadillas being a bit neater and, well, less smothered in cheese and grease. White cake w/ champagne cream - good cake but probably wont repeat. I was guilt-ridden eating this and the quesadilla- just uber unhealthy. This slice was HUGE. Margarita - really good. Drink prices here are amazing- $8 for premium liquor - cant beat that! Bartender was friendly and attentive

    Good tavern club and hot thin salted fries
    Melinda S.

    I've always passed by and finally decided to come in. Thought it was a lot larger what it actually is inside but it's quaint and homey. But nothing homey about the lack of heat. Feel bad for the employees who are in hats and gloves. Not sure why they don't have heat in January after a snow storm. And the staff is all female which is interesting. Everyone was friendly but gossipy about the other employees which is fun entertainment for bar guests. Though it was cold my tavern club was delicious and their fries are well salted and thin like I like! The turkey was meaty and sexy with the perfect amount of Mayo! The lack of a happy hour alone made me drop them one star. I mean come on!

Although they were quite busy, the service was great, seemed like a team effort and all were so pleasant and efficient. The menu has something for everyone and was well seasoned and very fresh.

During my visit, I stayed indoors. The interior is a bit small but cozy with TVs around the bar area. A Mexican restaurant that plays country music was a first for me but it was okay. The waitress was amazing! She gets 5 stars in my book. Ordered the jumbo margaritas. The Lola had some flavor but probably needed more guava. Also I had never seen cilantro in a margarita but I guess since this place is called cilantro, why now, right? Also the salt rim was great. Now the Enamorada margarita, on the menu it said coconut rim but wasn't available. I was sad about this but the margarita itself was very good. Mango and coconut was very tasty. Ordered the tacos. Suadero was a bit dry, also ask for slices of lime and then they got a bit better. The rice needed a bit more flavor as well as the black beans. The Al pastor tacos were a bit better but nothing to rave about.

    Surprisingly pleased with my Walker's experience!…read more I met with a former student. Since I got there a little early, I ordered a small pizza as an appetizer. The waiter didn't quite know what I meant, but did get the request to slice it in smaller rectangles rather than triangle slices. It was light and tasty. However, I'm pretty sure I'd be very hungry if I had ordered it as my meal. That was followed by the beer can chicken cobb salad. It was just the right size! We sat outside. Since Walker's is at the end of the strip, they have outdoor seating on the sidewalk. No fault of the establishment, when the sun went down, it got cold quickly! Now, I'm inclined to try the other Table and Tap restaurant a couple miles west.

Hubby and I met friends here for double date night. We were greeted by a kind hostess who quoted a 30-35 minute wait. They do not accept reservations. We were seated within 15 minutes and greeted by Jackson. This restaurant was spacious, clean, and had a semi woodsy décor. Collectively, we ordered the following. Winter Daiquiri Walter's Old Fashioned Shots (Titos, Crown Royal, Lemon Drop, Green Tea) Sparkling Cosmo Black Manhattan Smoked Wings (Buffalo) Pan Seared Salmon Fish & Chips Cajun Crab Cake Sandwich The beverages did what they were ordered to do. They gave hefty pours and we appreciated it. The Smoked Buffalo Wings were pretty yum. Great portion size. Tasty. Pan Seared Salmon was perfectly prepared to my liking, I substituted the risotto for fries to avoid the dairy. It was pretty good. I would order again. Well plated w zucchini under salmon. The fish and chips were the hit at the table. The breading had an amazing flavor, and the fish was prepared well. The Cajun Crab Sandwich was a hit w my hubby. He devoured his food quickly stating he would get it again. It was well plated, flavorful, and fulfilling. We received 10/10 service by Jackson who was attentive to our requests. There was an issue w a dish at our table that the manager (Kelly) resolved quickly, and left our table mate happy. I highly recommend this establishment for a good, hearty meal.

The group was 8 adults and 11 boys ages 2-12, aka peak chaos. Endless energy, constant movement, sodas disappearing at Olympic speed while the adults ordered beers and dinner. Our server Jacob was next-level. Calm, unbothered, and genuinely friendly. He never once seemed frazzled, even while handling other tables. Every order came out correct, he brought extra sauces without us even asking, and he joked around with the boys in a way that kept them happy and engaged. And for context. I was a server for 20+ years, so I don't hand out compliments lightly. It takes a lot to impress me. Jacob really did the damn thing. We've loved River Hill Grill for many years, but this night was a true stress test and they absolutely passed with flying colors. Huge shout-out to Jacob for turning what could've been a wild night into a smooth, enjoyable experience for everyone. We'll be back. And if you're dining with kids, big groups, or both, you're in very good hands.

The restaurant is tastefully designed with open ceilings and large windows overlooking an outdoor patio surrounded by attractive greenery. The bar area looks inviting and well-suited for a busy evening crowd, with multiple televisions available for viewing favorite sports and programs. Service throughout our visit was polite and helpful. I started with the Blue Ridge Salad, which was fresh and flavorful, featuring crumbled blue cheese and strips of caramelized onions. I would recommend requesting the dressing on the side, as it can cause the lettuce to wilt fairly quickly. For my entrée, I ordered the Smoke Burger. It was cooked as requested and remained juicy throughout. The combination of Gruyère cheese, chipotle aioli, and bacon blended together very well. The only drawback was that the burger became difficult to hold as the juices soaked through the bun, causing it to fall apart before I finished. Our table also shared a freshly prepared brick-oven Margherita pizza. The thin crust featured nicely charred edges, while the pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese were generously applied and melted into a deliciously gooey topping. We visited during a weekday lunch period that was busy but not overcrowded. Our server appeared to be responsible for both the indoor and outdoor dining areas while also clearing tables. This may have contributed to a noticeable delay in receiving our food and settling the check. Hopefully, this was simply an unusual occurrence rather than the norm. Overall, the attractive atmosphere, quality food, and friendly service make this a place I would gladly return to and explore further.

We even switched one out because it tasted like a wet rag. We ordered our dinners and were surprised at how good it was. I got the "Spaghetti and Meatballs" which is shrimp and lump crab meat made into small balls over linguini with a garlic Alfredo sauce, served with garlic toast. My boyfriend got the Lump Crab Cake sandwich and fries. We agreed that the food was good and came out hot and well seasoned. There were only two other people in the whole restaurant besides us and when they left, it was as if we didn't really exist. Lights were being turned off, dishes and bar was being cleaned, they closed the entrance doors and I had to use my flashlight on my phone to get to the bathroom. The whole time, the owner was sitting at the end of the bar having loud private conversations with her staff who were ordering food from the kitchen at the same time as us. All very strange and not inviting. Probably not going back, and maybe this was a weird one off, but it was so off putting for us. Maybe they are more professional at a peak time of service but I was shocked they were treating it like they were closed at an hour and a half before closing.

The food has been excellent on several visits, and the staff and regulars are real nice. On this visit (Jan 2026), I was just stopping in for a quick brew before a long evening. I've known some of the staff here, so I knew I'd be comfortable. The bar staff remembered my usual drink, which is always a welcoming feeling. I favor a tangy tequila drink as a great partner to the food, or any slightly-sweet cocktail or beer. They have a wide selection. And they remembered my favorite dish, which I've ordered here only once before! I love birria tacos, and they make a terrific recipe. It's tender slow-cooked shredded beef with rich savory flavors too complex to know all the ingredients. The beef picks up the sweet smokiness of mild peppers, perhaps chipotle, deeply-marinated for hours with herbs that i will guess as cumin, thyme, and others, and caramelized diced onion. It's loaded with some queso into a folded soft corn tortiila, which is soaked in the marinade, then pan or griddle-seared. Or maybe seared and then filled? Either way, it's a deeply-colorful hand-held like a super-flavorful super-juicy quesadilla. This birria-dilla is served with a dark reddish consommé of all the flavors of the beef and the marinade, for dipping and dousing and generally risking your clothing to splashes, spills, and wild abandon. Compadres also served me freshly fried thin very-lightly-spiced tortilla chips with a zingy fresh chunky red salsa, and i realized that, without thinking, i was dipping the chips in that luscious consommé more than the salsa! I enjoy the food and the relaxed ambiance of this little place. They recently added a lovely terrifically-detailed mural by a local artist of a pueblo magico, a village of delicious food and good compadres. You know those friends who you always seem to visit at meal-time for a taste of whatever is simmering? These Compadres are those compadres.
