“The salad I had was pretty good, but I'm a little upset that I paid $11 for the world's smallest salmon filet on top. Also, the aperol spritz I had was one of the smallest spritzes I've ever had, but the price did not reflect its demure stature.”
“Our server, Valentina, was so pleasant. The food was EXCELLENT!!! The shrimp 🍤 was fresh. Nachos was abundant and good, could have had a little more meat.”

“This was a highlight of Georgetown. Service for a group of 54 was fast and efficient. My beer by Great Lakes brewery was very amazing. Did a untapped brewery review. The glazed salmon, garlic roasted potatoes, and perfectly made brocoli seasoned. What a fun exciting place. Must come here again.”
“Stopped in to get a drink and kill some time, and ended up having a great experience! The bartender was absolutely wonderful! She was attentive, prompt, super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience what it was! Her recommendations were spot on and delicious. The mini-corn dogs will forever be my go to as they are delicious!! The drinks and well made, and they have a good beer selection. The prices are also quite reasonable. Nicks Riverside Grill in Georgetown is a must visit!”
“Food: I had the jerk chicken bowl. The food tasted good, but the chicken was obviously frozen chicken breast that was microwaved/reheated and barely any cooking went into the making of my food.
Drinks: outside bar on a hot summer day beers were not ICE cold. They were okay temperature. Not the way you want to cool off on a hot day.
Service/atmosphere: staff was great. Atmosphere is also lovely for a sunny day.”
“Nick’s Riverside Grill boasts a great location right on the Georgetown waterfront, offering beautiful views of the Potomac River. The atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant—perfect for a casual lunch or evening out. Prices are reasonable, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive, especially our server who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience.
We opted for healthier main dishes so we could indulge in their famous nachos guilt-free—and they were definitely worth it! While the food overall was decent, it’s really the setting and service that make this place stand out.
It’s also a great spot to grab a drink after a walk along the waterfront. We’ll definitely be back.”
