Riverside Grille

We had a wonderful experience! This was by far the best meal I’ve had in a really long time! Chrissy, our server was excellent, all her suggestions were spot on! Even her suggestion for a nice walk at a nearby botanical garden was great and very much appreciated after that fantastic meal! Thank you for an enjoyable Anniversary dinner!

We came here for our wedding anniversary and it was amazing! When we walked in I was shocked with how fancy it was. There was no wait and the host brought us to our booth. The booths are very spacious and comfortable. Our waiter Joshua was extremely helpful and so kind, he explained any questions we had perfectly and gave us all his recommendations! He was quick with drink refills, and getting food to our table. And he even gave us a cute little "happy 1 year" note! His service alone was 5/5 stars. The food was so delicious! By far the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. I have absolutely zero complaints about any of the food, it was beyond any expectations I had.

Oh snap! I actually put a 5 star level on a review. If you read my reviews, I always save the 5 star for something that really is over the top. When they restored this small strip of Crockett street....they spared no expense. They got it right. Now, this is my first visit to Beaumont and at the risk of offending the locals, it is not pleasant. The city feels abandoned with scores if not hundreds of empty store fronts buildings and warehouses. I even tried to visit the Port, (probably the only attraction the city has) but it was fenced off and not accessible. There was no public area. No train ride, no Port museum, no port café, no port boat rides or cargo ship tours. Nothing. Then, I stumbled on to Crocket street as I was looking for the restored historic theater. It was

The kind of southern restaurant in the heart of an old, deep, east Texas town. The redfish main was outstanding. Sides and apps, including drinks were also very well designed and under management of a well organized kitchen. Parking is free and abundant, and though the city center is clearly gentrifying, this was a pleasant surprise and one of the best restaurants in all of Texas, in all regards.

10/10! Not sure why we took so long to try this place out. The steaks were phenomenal, similar if not better than something you can get at a Houston steak house. The service was just as good as the food. We had the seafood fondue for our appetizer and we were fans of it. It had a heavy fishy taste, and when they asked if we liked it we let them know the issue. They quickly and nicely resolved it, which we appreciated since we’re never the type to complain about food. The bathrooms were nice and clean, and the ambiance of the restaurant was very nice. We will absolutely be back. Such a great place and experience!
