"After a 10-minute wait, the hostess attempted to seat us at one of the high tables. I explained that due to a nerve injury in my back, sitting there would cause my legs to go numb. She was incredibly accommodating and quickly found us another table. Although she didn’t have to apologize, she did, which was very thoughtful of her. Our waitress was excellent; she swiftly took our drink order and brought us warm bread right away. I ordered the fish fry, while my husband chose a burger. She also promptly gave me a plate for the salad bar. We didn’t have to wait long for our food—it arrived in about 30 minutes. The fish was perfectly cooked, and my husband praised his cheeseburger. Throughout our meal, the hostess frequently checked on us and even offered me more fish, even though I was already full. The level of customer service was outstanding, the food was delicious, and the hostess was exceptional. Usually, when I mention a seating preference, I might get an eye roll or told that the only available table is a high one, forcing me to stand during my meal. However, that was not the case here. I truly appreciated how polite and accommodating the hostess was; she made me feel comfortable, allowing me to thoroughly enjoy my dinner. The bartender was attentive too, and both the hostess and the waitress were wonderful. I can confidently say that Kief's Reef will be my go-to spot for fish on Friday nights from now on!"

I didn't know it was bingo night, but we were fortunate enough to get a table and ended up having a wonderful experience! The food was amazing; I had been craving wings, and they were just right—generously sized and incredibly fresh. I wish...

LOVE this place!! Great biker destination! I'm from upstate NY and I have a really hard time finding chicken wings I like in Illinois. This place makes AMAZING chicken wings!! The Acapulco Gold sauce is to die for! During the warm seasons they have livemusic across the street on the river which is super cool. I highly recommend this place. View menu

This is a fantastic riverside spot that I've been visiting for years. They offer wonderful live music on weekends, and the outdoor bar is a great feature. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and there's a solid selection of beers and drinks to choose from. The indoor area is also quite pleasant. The food is excellent, and I highly recommend stopping by to check it out if you’re in the area.

I had a great time at this lively place with a good band, but since it rained, we had to stay indoors instead of enjoying the beach. I ordered two rum punches, which were quite weak for $12 each, especially on an empty stomach. While the drinks tasted good, they lacked any real kick. The beer selection didn’t impress me either; there wasn't a menu listing, and we were left guessing while trying to order at the bar. My friends tried the fried fish sticks and patty melt but barely took a bite, so I'm glad I didn’t order any food myself. It was a fun atmosphere, but I'm not sure I could eat or drink anything here again.

We ordered three all-you-can-eat fish fries and one boiled fish plate. While the fried fish was quite good, the boiled fish arrived cold and was significantly undercooked—not even a proper cod. I raised this issue with the waitress, who did bring us another order of the all-you-can-eat fish, but she didn’t offer us any drinks throughout our meal. Later, we asked another waiter for two boxes for our leftovers. When our waitress noticed us talking about what was on our plates, she told us we couldn’t take anything home because it had to be thrown away. I understand it's an all-you-can-eat place, but that felt unreasonable; I would have liked to take my leftovers. She then forcefully grabbed t... View menu
