The At River Ridge - Town of Griswold

Now, on to the downside: the service. I'm surprised to see other reviews mentioning good service because I can't say the same about my experiences. During my latest visit, the restaurant was overwhelmed with a party in the bar area, so I understood why our waitress was a bit less attentive and seemed frazzled. However, I've been there several times when the place was nearly empty, and the servers were still inattentive and occasionally unfriendly. It's definitely disappointing, but I still think it's worth visiting just for the patio.

The atmosphere is laid-back and pleasant, just as you'd expect at a golf course. Prices are reasonable. The service was outstanding and very friendly. The timing of the food courses was perfect. As a seafood lover, I couldn't resist trying the clam chowder and fish and chips. The cod was excellent, not some unknown fish. The portions were quite generous. I highly recommend this spot for a lovely lunch or a casual dinner.

The service here is consistently excellent, and the food is quite tasty. The portion sizes are generous. I highly recommend the California Reuben, which is fantastic, and my wife often chooses the Pastrami Pretzel, a reliable favorite. The Fish and Chips special, accompanied by a rich clam chowder, is also impressive. The only dish that has let me down a few times is the Chicken Parmesan; the breading on the chicken has been nearly burnt during my last couple of visits. Overall, this place is a regular spot for me!

The Pastrami Pretzel is a fantastic way to wrap up 18 holes of golf. Take advantage of the Tuesday Summer Special: 18 holes with a cart for just $40.

I really wanted to enjoy this restaurant. The appetizers and beer are fantastic, but the main courses leave much to be desired, often tasting bland or simply not good. I've visited twice and can definitely recommend the nachos and bruschetta. The bar has a great selection of draft beers and a decent variety of wines. During my first visit, I chose the wedge salad as my main dish, and it was quite disappointing; it was lacking in flavor and the dressing was too watery. On my second visit, I ordered the ribs, which they advertise as smoked on-site. Unfortunately, they were a letdown as well—they came out cold and seemed undercooked, as if they were simply reheated in a microwave. Overall, our dinner for four, which included two appetizers, two glasses of wine, and two Narragansett drafts, totaled $155 with tip.
