    One of the best places to eat in Montevideo! We love the hometown feel and all of the made from scratch goodness that they offer.

    Valentino's food is amazing! Well worth the drive to come just for the pies and malts. It was the best Rueben I have had!

    Stopped in yesterday afternoon and had the meat loaf special. It was very good and reasonably priced. The service was fast and friendly.

    I love this place. Of course I have many memories here, but the food is great and so is the staff.

    We ended up eating here twice across a few days because it sits directly across from what appears…read moreto be the only fast charging station for miles around. We got into MSP late, the rental place only had EVs left, and suddenly The Rivers Family Restaurant became part of our charging strategy. Honestly, not a bad problem to have. The food was quite good both times. It was exactly the kind of hearty, comforting meal you want on the road. And the staff was very personable. The contrast between the two visits was interesting too: on a random weeknight, service was excellent and quick. On Sunday after church, they were absolutely packed and warned us service would be slow, but even then it moved faster than expected and everyone stayed friendly and on top of things despite the crowd. The vibe is very much friendly family restaurant. Not fancy and no frills, but clean and comfortable. A solid place for a meal.

    The restaurant was clean and looked like it was recently updated. Clean and modern tiled restroom…read more The food was great with generous portions. My husband had the Frisco burger and fries and said it was great. I had the country fried steak breakfast with eggs, loaded hash browns and pancakes. I share the meal with my 5 and 1.5 year old boys. Pancakes were huge and fluffy and so good! My son said "this place makes the best food"

    We were staying at the hotel attached to the restaurant. I saw some reviews on Yelp which did not…read moreseem to be too bad or too good but, with the weather as it was, we did not want to go out anywhere. When we got there on Friday night it was not very busy. We got our drinks, and ordered the pretzel with cheese. I would recommend the pretzel. It was soft, and the cheese had really good flavor. Then we decided to order wings. They were ok, nothing too spectacular. Not a lot meat and some were also dry. As the restaurant/bar got busier our waitress seemed to forget about us. It was harder to get our drinks. We wanted something to munch on again, so we ordered the fries. I hate to say it but those were probably the best things we ate there. Salted and cooked perfectly, nice and crispy. The beers were cold and I was able to get a cold glass to pour my bottle of beer into but, again that's when we could get service. The restaurant had a lot of seating. It had televisions where we could watch hockey and basketball. It was good for where it was located but I'm not sure we would go back.

    The service was terrible. The restaurant was empty and it took forever to get seated. We started…read morewith 4 people and 2 more people came to eat with us. Our waitress took forever to come take our drink order. The other two people joined us and it took forever to get the drinks. My husband had to actually ask if they were coming. We had two more people join so we asked if we could move to a different table to the bartender. I have no idea where our waitress went. We went over there and it took about 10 minutes for her to come back to see what we wanted. We wanted more drinks. But we have no idea where she was by the way when we first moved tables to the six she under her breath whispered what the fuck. Throughout the entire time we were there we had to go up to the bar and get drinks. The guy bartender was very nice, but I have no idea where the waitress was. The food took probably 40 minutes. It was OK food but we didn't get any silverware more and we had to continue going to the bar to get drinks the only time she actually was nice was when she brought us the bill and said thanks. Have a great night at that point we were done.
