  Visited the National Whitwater center on a busy Saturday and got some lunch from Rivers Edge and was very pleasantly surprised how good it was. The place was packed but the service was still really good. They also have a great beer list. Do yourself a favor and get the brisket dip and Mac n cheese

  This is gonna be a no from me, despite having really good food. The service is literally THAT BAD. Buckle up, because this is a wild ride.
  
  So we first showed up at noon with a party of eight and an hour and a half to spare. We placed our order in a decent amount of time. After about an hour of waiting, a member of our party asked our waitress to check on the status of our order. She went to the kitchen and came back with the news that there were "quite a few" tickets ahead of ours and we wouldn't have our food in time. You'd think an hour and a half was enough time for a meal, but it was not even enough to get our food. We paid for our drinks and left (despite having spoken to the manager and explained the situation, no one offered to comp our sodas).
  
  Then, after our rafting trip, we came back to the restaurant since we hadn't eaten all day. This time it was around 3 pm and rush hour was over. We placed our order and about 45 minutes later...still nothing. This waitress offered to try and bring us a free appetizer. After about an hour, we had decided not to wait and were standing up to leave when the food miraculously appeared.
  
  And it was delicious! But two meals in a row with an absurd wait for food such as salads and BLTs? I literally couldn't believe it.

  Everything is overpriced, but at least the food is good. I got the tuna poke, and for $17, the portion was ridiculously small. The flavors in the dressing were really bright and the ingredients (esp. the oranges and radishes) were fresh and complimented each other well. The lo mein noodles added a nice crunch. I also had the fries, which were nice and crispy. Beer on tap, though more options at the biergarten. Service is pretty fast considering the place was packed. Indoor and outdoor seating.

  Great food! The sandwich I had was seasoned really well. You wouldn't really expect much from a restaurant in the middle of the white water center but surprisingly the menu has a nice selection and the food is great. Service was nice as well. You have the option to eat inside or outside if you want to enjoy the scenery. I would come back just for the food.

  Loved the atmosphere and the food. Their burgers are amazing!! I upgraded to the sweet potato fries with a GF bun and it was delicious. The live band playing across the river was a plus. Market lights on a cool, Fall evening is always the best.
