About
Come to this restaurant for a break and order nicely cooked French onion soup, chicken salads and onion sandwiches. Nothing can be better than eating good key lime pie, cheesecakes and chocolate mousse. It's a must to try delicious marsala, draft beer or martinis while coming to Clara's On the River. You will be offered good coffee or good ice tea. A cozy place with a beautiful interior is all you need for a holiday with your family. This place is recommended for the efficient staff. The cool service is something these restaurateurs care about. Prices at this spot are worth attention since they're attractive. Google gives it 4.3 so you can choose this restaurant to have a good time here.

The building is very nice, too bad the food didn't keep that theme. So for the good, we had a great server. It was a nice building, but the carpet was starting to show it's age. The food was awful for 35.00 a person. The side Cesar had so many onions on it, I had that taste in my mouth the whole night. My steak was edible, but lacked seasoning and relied on the bacon and blue cheese to save it. Sadly they did not. The steamed broccoli was overcooked and committed suicide. I think I will just look at this place from the outside and save my taste buds from the torture this place put them through. Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3
Stopped in before the Bret Michaels concert. First time here, service was great and food was excellent. I had the Chicken Tortellini and the stuffed bread stick. Very good. We also had the spinach, crab, artichoke dip with tortilla chips. Definitely be back and recommend! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

My husband and I ordered burgers. He ordered his very well done, told them no pink at all, mine ordered well done. Both were almost raw. Sent back, got burgers back the same. Horrible 😳 Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Clara's has been on my list for quite awhile. Our visit did not disappoint! The menu is extensive, so there were quite a few options to choose from. Everything we had was amazing. Our server was awesome as well. We loved being able to walk around and get a feel for what it had been in the past. Absolutely did not disappoint!!

Lovely building with a quiet atmosphere. The menu is very large, so something for everyone, but the food felt not-from scratch. Food was good, not great, nothing else to say about it Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Ribs

Old train station that convert into a beautiful restaurant. If you are in town it is a land mark that you have to try. You are not here for food but the atmosphere. Food wise, don't try anything risky and stick with the basic like sandwich and burgers like everybody else. Our fish was dry as hell, I am guessing they weren't hot sale items. Squash spaghetti is a very good side to try.. Waitress and bartender are the same person so service is slow. There are a lot of people working but none of them serve food.

Great place to stop for a leisurely upscale lunch just off I-94 in the Detroit-Chicago corridor. Restored Michigan Central railroad depot, right along the river in downtown Battle Creek. Had a yummy Cobb salad, lots of menu choices. Gotta stop again in summer to enjoy the outdoors seating along the river.

Tonight had the fish tacos. Very good... surprisingly good actually. Grilled shrimp were also very good. Our server was good and attentive to our large group. We had multiple staff help when our plates came out which was nice. Full bar. Great deserts. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
We called days ahead of time to make reservations for a table of 25 for Saturday morning after my dads funeral service, when we got there no one had the slightest clue about it, luckily it got wrote down in a "second" reservation book up front but since no one passed the news along we had to wait almost a half hour for them to get us set up....our server James was Phenomenal though! Handled our whole party by himself and did such a good job! The food was good too, so other than the mishap in the beginning all in all they handled it very well and left a good impression on all if our party!
