Wait staff acts.like they hate it here. Not a single smile til the bill came. I had half a drink left and someone cleared my table when I went to answer phone call in lobby 30 ft away. I had half a drink left and silverware waiting for my food to arrive. Waitress was right there when it happened. She looked around and that was it. Kristen. Didn't check to see how the food was til it was gone and she brought bill. Fish and tots good. Cole slaw good. Service needs work. Not a single smile from any staff. Like they are going through the motions. 5:00 on a Friday. Unacceptable.
What a wonderful place! My girls and I go nearly every Monday. We always hope to have the pleasure of Willy being our server- what a professional & outstanding server! But everyone’s been great! There’s nothing on this menu we haven’t enjoyed! Different specials all the time! Very fair prices! 10/10 recommend checking out Rival’s! Ask for Willy!! :)
We had a great time here service was excellent food was amazing. They're slightly understaffed but I'm not going to hold that against them..wr still had great service. Burgers are good. Buffalo chicken dip is good and from what my son says the pizza is very good. The tacos were excellent as well.
We have been going to Rivals for a while now and decided I need to write a review. Place is awesome. Never been disappointed! We have tried a lot of different items off the menu and loved everyone of them. Service is great! Prices are very reasonable for drinks and food! They offer different specials every month and they have been excellent! Highly recommend!
I had a sports trip to Corunna for my school. I mentioned this to my niece who is a postal employee. She said I have to go eat at Rivals. I'm glad she suggested it. The Hostess was friendly. She let me pick out my table. I had the Special which was shrimp. It was so good along with garlic mashed potatoes and veggies. So good. Will was our server. A++ He was always asking what else do I need. He didn't make me feel like I needed to be rushed out since I was planning to be there for hours instead of sitting on my bus in the rain. I loved that the local game was on the Big Screen and that their customers were watching it. I would highly recommend making this a place to enjoy an evening out.
Had the best time in here! Good food, drinks and the best waitress/bartender Autumn! Her wonderful and speedy service made the time even better! Also love talking with her when shes working!! Need more people like her!!!
Went for the first time and had autumn as my server and she was wonderful! Most chill server I’ve had in a long long time! If there was an award for best/most chill/most fun she would win hands down!!! Will definitely be back soon!
