Frommer's Review

Occupying a prime location on the Southbank Riverwalk, this gorgeous restaurant and microbrewery has dramatic waterfront and skyline views. For an even better vantage point, sit outside on the enormous covered deck. The quality of the cuisine very nearly lives up to the vista, especially the coconut shrimp with a sweet mandarin-orange sauce. For a main course, try the pork chops grilled with a raspberry chipotle glaze. While you could easily drop a bundle in the main dining room, you can also devise an inexpensive, simpler meal (burgers, beer cheese soup, and such) in the Brew Haus, a large sports bar that opens onto the deck and the riverbank. Bands play here on weekend evenings. Sunday brunch brings incredible buffets with decadent desserts.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
