I'll give this place 4 stars for the view and the helpful staff. This place is really better for rafters who have just finished and are looking for a quick bite, rather than a group looking for a night on the town. There is live music there on occasion though! The restaurant is located in the River Runner campus. There's plenty of parking. The have decent sandwich-ish options for a somewhat reasonable price. I am not a fan of the chips and salsa (the salsa was a bit watery) or the queso (it was more like the nacho cheese from a can). The Banh mi was pretty good, as were the elk sausages. Both of these sandwiches came with chips. The kids liked the burgers, which were served with home fries and veggies. I wish they had that option for all the sandwiches! They did have some gluten free options, which was nice.

Wow. We were beyond impressed by the atmosphere and food here. Almost everything had a gluten free option and the food was phenomenal. The outside of the hotel and restaurant look like a New Orleans old town hotel and the inside has this cool train station meets mountain vibe that was super inviting to come to. I loved all of the decor, menu designs, and the space. The food was AH-MAZING! My friend is pretty limited on her diet and is gluten free. There were so many really tasty options for her to choose from which was pretty rare. I had the French onion soup and it was easily one of the best I've ever had. We also shared a gluten free Gnocchi and Pizza. Both were for sure "something to write home about". Favorites: French Onion Soup, GF Sage Gnocchi, Pizza, Steak, Au Gratin Potatoes, etc. Parking: Easy street parking for free

Excellent espresso, the service was fantastic and the gelato was wonderful! All of their syrups are house made, so get a flavored latte and enjoy the river! Also they have gluten free scones; flavors rotate every day!
