Ate here on marathon weekend. Would liked to have sat outside on the boardwalk but the wait was 20 minutes and DH and I were starving since we'd run the 1/2 that AM. Got seated inside right away. Server was pleasant and attentive. Both of us ordered a basic burger and thought it was delicious. I'm very picky about my hamburgers so that is a compliment. However, I failed to notice that it only came with potato chips and not french fries. Because I didn't notice, not sure if it was possible to request fries. So found that to be a bit dissapointing. Also, $14.95 is pretty expensive for a hamburger and potato chips.

My family of 7 had dinner there on 11/30/12. We had dined there a few years ago and we were all very satisfied Our server this year was Joy who was very knowledgeable and very accommodating. She allowed us to sample the beers until we found one to our liking. As for the food, 2 of us had the ribeye which was grilled to perfection my DD had the blackened Mahi-Mahi. My DDIL had the penne with chicken which she said was the best she ever had. I had the Flame Grilled Meat Loaf which I've had many times and it never disappoints. I don't know why this place gets so many poor reviews. If you have never eaten here, try it and I promise you you will not be disappointed. Remember, ask to sit in Joy's section.

bland food, musty interior
|
|
My husband and I recently dined here and we were incredibly disappointed. First of all, the interior of the building is just shabby looking and it smells very musty. It was a strong smell and not very appetizing. Worse than that was the food. From appetizer to entree all the food we ordered was incredibly bland. No seasoning at all. The bread on our sandwiches was hard and obviously stale. My husband's burger was ordered "medium". It was well done on end and almost rare on the other. Ick. I'd have given the place a 1 but the service was pretty good. The server was very responsive and did take the burger off our ticket. We were disappointed with experience and would not eat there again.

Ate here on 11/7/12. The salmon and steak were awesome! I am in a scooter and the accessibility was not so great..no room in between tables to get around. Enjoyed eating here, but probably would not go back.

Our server was polite and quick. He checked with us often and gave us good suggestions.
The food was good and the IPA brew was excellent. If you like real beer and not that light watery stuff, you'll like the brews they have to offer here.

We decided to eat here since it had been a couple of years since we had and our previous experience was great. Not so this time. The best thing was there was no wait. I can now understand why. The food was awful. Our server was ok but did not check back on us very often. Will not go back. Two of us did not feel well the next day. I can't prove it was our dining here that caused it but 2 people with upset stomachs make me think it was.

We went here one night when ESPN Zone (kids favorite), was too busy, loud and could not tell us how long the wait would be. Lucky for us. The food was very good. Everyone enjoyed what they had. Service was also great. We will be back.

We tried here for the first time for a change as we normally go to ESPN, and we were not disappointed. I had the New York Strip and Shrimp Combo and everyone else had the Ribs, and they were all delicious. Our server was excellent throughout and chose a couple of very tasty beers for us.

We ate here on arrival day 4/28. We arrived around 500 or 530. It was not very busy and we were seated outside within a few minutes. At this point there was only one other table seated outside. Waiter was very prompt in getting our drink order and appetizer order. We decided to order the nachos as an appetizer. They came piled high with topping and could easily feed 3 or 4 people. For our dinner we both ordered the Hickory BBQ Bacon Burger with chips. It is a large burger. The taste was ok, not bad but not amazing. I could not finish all of mine. The chips have a nice flavor and I finished all of those. DBF did finish his but we left some of the nachos because we were full. By the time we were ready to leave the outside seating was completely full.
This would be a nice place to hang out in the evening and people watch.

We ate for the first time at Big River Grille this evening. The restaurant is loud and pricey (though all restaurants, for the most part, are pricey at WDW). But the food was excellent and the server we had, Lee, was great. I had the salmon which melted in my mouth, and the mashed potatoes were very tasty. My husband had the Ribeye steak, which was excellent, too. Our table was next to the Boardwalk windows and we were able to see the fireworks from either Epcot or HS. All in all, an excellent experience.

My husband and I ate here for lunch our last day of our trip and the food and service was wonderful! We were staying at the Boardwalk and had hoped to eat lunch there before we had to catch the Magical Express, but were disappointed to find nothing opened until around noon. This restaurant opens at 11:30, so we ate at the bar and told the server we had to be gone by noon and she delivered! My husband had the turkey sandwich and I had the nachos appetizer for a meal. We also had the queso dip. Everything was great, and the portions are easily big enough for 2 people!

Just another busy bar

My family of 5 went to this restaurant due to its proximity to where we were staying, the Boardwalk, and as an alternative since we used up all our dining points. The entire meal was relatively inexpensive compared to other restaurants, and gave us exactly what we were looking for. Good food at a fair price. I'd stick to the hamburgers and sandwiches. Service was very prompt and the food above average for Disney; about what you'd expect at any local bar or tavern.

Enjoyed an impromptu lunch here after several long, hot hours at Star Wars weekend. Food was tasty, server was perky, enjoyed watching folks on the Boardwalk. Good place to stop if walking from the Studios to EPCOT...much quieter than ESPN Zone for sure and no wait for a table!

We stayed at the Boardwalk from May 4-9 and ate here twice. The food was good (not great) and we thought the beers were good as well. The kids enjoyed their food as well.
