Gruene River Grill is equally suited to casual lunches and special-occasion dinners. This is due, in part, to the eatery's location: It's perched right on the edge of the Guadalupe River, promising water views from many positions with the restaurant, particularly the outdoor patio. Inside, Gruene River Grill boasts soaring ceilings, a working fireplace, plus a wealth of exposed brick and wooden beams that impart a gritty-chic vibe to the space.
As for the food, diners can expect a seafood-centric menu that spans fish tacos and pan-seared tilapia to a gorgonzola burger and country fried steak. All of the above can be preceded with an order of shrimp wontons, fried calamari, spinach-artichoke dip, or another selection from the list of appetizers. Note that many returning visitors direct praise toward Gruene River Grill's strawberry shortcake, which makes use of the eatery's made-from-scratch cream cheese pound cake.
