A fantastic experience. If I'm gonna be here in Yuma for almost 5 more years, this place will be the go to place to entertain.

We went on Valentine's Day which is their busiest night of the year and were nervous about our reservation. But the staff was very friendly and worked quickly to get us seated. The wait for food was a bit longer than most places but the atmosphere was so nice and relaxing that we didn't mind. My wife had the veal which was very flavorful if a little chewy. I had the beef wellington which tasted fine but could have been juicier. I also wasn't impressed with the presentation as the breading was falling apart when they brought it to me. All starters and sides were excellent. We each had sangria and tiramisu for dessert which were both very well-prepared. Overall, I would recommend this place for a nice dinner in a relaxing atmosphere with very friendly, attentive staff. For the more upscale variety of dishes they serve, I thought the prices were fair.

Best food in Yuma! Eryn the Server awesome. Sea food Gumbo awesome Salmon Crab cakes with peanut sauce awesome Hot and sour soup awesome. Dipping bread yummy! We love this place. The best topper was the Creme brulee for my Birthday. We have been to just about every reaturaunt in Yuma the River City Grill on 3rd has by far been the best! The worst was the Angry Crab! Thanks Eryn for a great lunch experience 😁👍🤩

An unexpected gem in Yuma. Breaks up a Tucson-San Diego road trip nicely. Shady patio for outside dining. Half-price appetizers on Monday are a great deal! Salads and bread were excellent too. Service very friendly. Slightly slow, but they may have been a bit stretched, as it was pretty busy well after the noon hour.

This restaurant was recommended to us by some of the local people. We thought the food, service and atmosphere were all great. I was surprised at how much we enjoyed the seafood.

Very cool place! The food was mostly good (had a mix of seafood and steak at our table). The cod seemed dry for my mother. The indoor dining is very energetic, not great for conversation if you are a bit hard of hearing.

Amazing food. The best I have found in Yuma. Great atmosphere. The food and atmosphere are eclectic with a variety of vibes and nuance. Awesome service. Very nice wine list. Not inexpensive, nor average. Definitely a hidden gem.

One of Yuma's little secret hideaways. We loved the food. The place reminds me of a small Mediterranean restaurant. It is cozy inside (cramped), with small tables a bit too close together for my liking. But the patio area is spacious with larger tables and plenty of room. Menu has a wide variety of dishes with a Mediterranean flair. The staff is very attentive and friendly. A good place for a romantic dinner or to impress out of town guests.

Definitely an upscale experience. The atmosphere was very welcoming and modern. The decor was great - I definitely enjoyed the art pieces they selected. The service staff were very friendly and prompt. The food was better if you stuck with the more Mediterranean or European items.

Went for dinner with my wife. Sat outside on a little corner just the two of us, due to health issues she needed to be away from crowed and they sat us in a perfect spot. Had the scallops mushroom appetizer and it was very delicious, to drink we both had the lemonade which was very delicious didn't taste fake at all. Soup we both got brocolli bacon which was very good. I had the rack of lamb which was very Delicious enjoyed every bite she had the seafood Alfredo which she loved. For dessert we shared the chocolate mousse which was really good. It was nice and quite atmosphere was good just what we needed, well most definitely return .

The salmon was amazing. The deserts are very good as well, highly recommended them. I sat inside at the bar and chatted briefly with the owner. Very nice restaurant that definitely has the best food in town. Everyone was very nice and the place was very busy.

We decided to stop in Yuma at 7pm. We looked up restaurants and realized that most were chains. We found River City Grill and went there immediately- only a 5 minute drive from our hotel. The food was delicious! Very fresh. The entrees come with soup or salad and very delicious warm bread. The service was friendly, upbeat and welcoming. We will be back the next time we are in town. Don't miss out on this gem!

We had the fillet and the rib eye, both were excellent. Appetizers were really good. The food is well worth the price ($115.00; 1 appetizer, 2 steaks w/soup salad, 2 drinks). The server was great. The atmosphere lacked something to be desired. Our table for two was so close to the next table the we could bump elbows with the customers at the adjacent table. When we opened the front door as we entered it almost hit a tabled set up at the entrance. Again the food and service were really good.

As far as the food goes on this one I am a doordash driver so I have not tried the food.. But on a Monday night 7pm ish. Couldn't find a parking spot except down the street..i walked I n and it was beyond packed!!!! Server was alright but very very busy. I literally Couldn't hear myself think it was that busy and loud. So not having ever eaten here myself I can't say but the crowd and shear amount of people is for me proof that the food is epic.

With large parties the steaks are NOT cooked to the patrons desire...more attention needs to be paid to this matter. This has happened on several occasions. Overall a great atmosphere with great staff

Excellent service and delicious food. We successfully had a gluten free and tree-nut free experience for my brother-in-law, who is extremely sensitive. Our server was very sweet and accommodating you could tell that the whole staff cares about providing a comfortable and caring experience.

Questions & Answers

Exelent restaurant

River City Grill will be closed Thanksgiving day. ??

Expensive for what you get. Also crowded and noisiy

Ok thank you so they must also have handicap parking right? We've been looking for a great Steak and Seafood place. We go to the same 6 restaurants been wanting to branch out.

They do have a patio, but for health code reasons, unless it's a dog for medical reasons, I don't think it is aloud. And reservations are appreciated
