Sunday meal. Service very slow . Turkey tough , roast potato looked as though it had just been reheated. Bland taste gravy - meal lacked freshly cooked taste . Leek and potato soup too salty and again questionable whether it was freshly made. Disappointing as it had been recommended by a friend . Whilst price was reasonable, sadly won’t be returning.

Took my family for dinner , five of us . Food was excellent and great value for money , the service was fast and the staff really helpful . We have now started to have Sunday lunch, I would recommend it to all.

The so called topside roast beef was vile I’ve had good and bad beef and this was below that I’ve tasted better from Iceland freezer isle and I’m being honest, it was definitely not the best a chef could do for the price and I definitely wouldn’t eat there again there was more colours, veins and fat in just one bit of beef it was like trying to eat leather I was afraid to eat another bite

Ok , we decided to go early around 6:30 in the evening, had a drink ordered food and had to wait just over an hour before service,, well ok ,, food on the most was just ok,, few small things to note the champ ordered with the chicken dish well was just mash,,the duck I ordered was very tough,,very disappointing,everything else was for everyone was good, and the single dessert was brilliant, suppose not made purchased in but perfect. Been lots before and been lots better,,and will be back, please please please sort out wait times and don’t over cook the duck,,, super thanks.

My husband booked st the restaurant for me to have my surprise 60th birthday lunch. My family arrived to set up on Sunday before I arrived. My son was told the chef was sick. My husband was not notified by any staff member. Being the 13th Feb he could not book any luncheon at 12:30 when my son told him about the chef being ill. Certainly some staff member should have contacted husband to make alternate arrangements not have family members travelling over an hour to be told this. Extremely disappointed with how we were treated. Hence no surprise 60th birthday lunch for me.

I made a booking for a 60th birthday celebration lunch on Sunday 13th Feb. On arrival invited guests were told that the restaurant was closed for a week. That's understandable in Covid times, but I would have expected that someone would have bothered to call and inform people who had made bookings so that alternate arrangements could have been made.

I went here on my first day in Portadown - a Sunday. The Riverside Restaurant was inside the golf club and I was surprised that the place was virtually empty. Red wine was served in miniature bottles, if you order by the glass. The decor was nothing special (which was a shame) but the food was certainly wholesome and very generous in portion size. I had the sole goujons and they were the best goujons I had ever eaten. The dining area was spacious so I was surprised that few tables were occupied as the price of the food was very reasonable indeed.

I was at a charity function at the golf club last weekend. I was late home from work and didn't have anything to eat before setting off. On arrival in the bar/function room area it was apparent food was available and my wife and I ordered from the varied menu. She had the burger and I had the nicest chicken curry I think I've ever tasted. I had to go back that way on Sunday and made reason to call again for the curry in case I was wrong. I wasn't. Top marks to this venue, I'll be back. P.S value for money into the bargain.

The moment we came in we were sat down and our orders were taken, the waitress was really helpful and friendly. We waited about 10 minutes and then brought to our table, the atmosphere was very friendly, the meal was lovely and very reasonably price, we had a nice view of the golf course. The waitress definitely deserved a tip.
