Riverside Cantina

My husband and I have lived in the area 10+ years and we have always intended to go to Mr. Ed’s, so today we went for dinner. It was a rainy Saturday, so it was not very busy but it still had a decent crowd. Our server greeted us quickly and took our drink order. When she returned she asked if we were ready to order and we asked for a bit more time, that turned into at least 30 minutes or so. We ordered an appetizer of the cheeseburger egg rolls and my husband ordered the Reuben sandwich with the house chips and I ordered the grilled cheese with tomato bisque. The appetizer was good, my husband who loves Reubens thought it was marginal based on the fact that the meat was dry and jerky-like, the bread was thick and not enough sauerkraut and they use 1000 island dressing instead of Russian dressing. I thought my grilled cheese and soup was good. The house chips are made on site and we did not find them to be anything special and they had no dipping sauce. Our server checked back only once when we first got our food (someone else delivered to the table) and it took a while to check-out. Overall, I was under whelmed by the experience and not excited to return. I found the atmosphere to be that of a typical bar and I would suggest going for a drink.
