Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
Anyone who wants to eat with a big group on Friday night, please vote in the poll for a time, and post below for a headcount.
They can accomodate 70-80 of us and said we can do the full menu for the entire party. I made loose reservations for 40+. Will call to confirm time and headcount next Wednesday. The poll will be open until then.
If you're going to be up there Friday evening, please join us. It'll be good food, good times, and good people.
If the river is open (it may be closed due to the lake being at flood stage), we can travel by boat or car. If the river is closed, we'll have to travel by car. 10 min boat ride, 5 min car ride...
Thanks 3ck for lighting the fire...I was slacking on this.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
There's a bigger group that's doing something else, but we're still going to have a good handful going to eat at river bend. Anyone interested in joining us, please post up so I can give the restaurant a decent headcount. Definitely won't be a huge crowd like last year.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
Just 1 question, since I live in the area, and have ate at both places, Big Pines and River Bend. Why River Bend? Service is slow, food not as good as Big Pines, and the only positive I know of is if your coming from the lake its closer than Big Pines. Just wondering.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
I would have agreed with you, but my last few experiences at both restaurants have been the opposite of yours. Last two times I went to big pines, it wasn't very good, kind of a grimey buffet setup, and limited menu. First few times I went to river bend, I wasn't real happy with the service or the food, but the last few I was happier with both...Big Pines before it burned was one of my favorite places to go, anywhere. I've been very disappointed in it since the re-opening.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
I agree, both do have their ups and downs. I was just wondering, Big Pines has a large front out door patio and River Bend has a screened in smaller patio. I up with either.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
Me too really. Was just trying to get something reserved for us even though it looks like it's gonna be a relatively small group now. My crew voted for Riverbend so that's what we went with. He said the patio could hold about 80. That's more than we woulda had on Friday night even if everyone went.

Re: Dinner, Friday night at River Bend restauraunt
Good deal. Looks like we're gonna have about 30 people, maybe a few more.
