RIVERSIDE-Heroes

Have you ever eaten at a place for the the first time, and it's SO GOOD it almost makes you mad?!?! When you come, bring some tissues because the cheese bread will bring a tear to your eye. If this place is this good for a casual lunch, can you imagine anything more.

Steak tips over mashed potatoes, added grilled onions and the dish was great. Steak wasn’t hard to chew, the server doesn’t ask how you prefer them to be cooked but it’s not a deal breaker. What I did LOVE was their baked bbq beans. That’s how you do bbq beans people, with meat mixed in (sausages), corn, and just a hint but not too much sweetness to it. We sat outside, where there is plenty of room for larger groups. Inside is cutely decorated and has a pay to play dj jukebox. Bar is inside and is a great restaurant for families and big groups. Located right off the freeway. Shared public parking lot.

The service was good. We arrived at a good time, we were able to get a table right away. It gets crowded there. A lot of choices on the menu and you get a lot of food for your money. We ordered salads, a Cobb salad and a Spicy Brisket salad. WoW, that was enough for four people. It was just two of us. I didn't like that some of the lettuce wasn't fresh. It looked like that salad in the bags. USE FRESH LETTUCE. The parking lot fills up quickly. We lucked up and got a parking space on the street next to the restaurant.

Heroes has always been the only spot around the I.E with the best service and the best food around. You'll never get ignored here or forgotten because they take a team approach to their service experience. The staff is super friendly and chill, our favorite side to eat is the bar side with the hightop tables. Yesterday we ended up taking our in-laws to try it out for an early birthday celebration for my father in law and he loved the food and service. Only thing is we use touch tunes and we could not hear the music when we were sitting in the far corner of the family side. However the food was amazing, mom in law ordered a bloody mary i thought was tasty but it was a bit spicy for her. The picture i included was from fridays date night and that was an absolute perfect night with a perfect meal, music and service. It was my fiancés 3rd time here and I'm so glad he loves it like i do. We had the chicken club, and the cajun pasta and both were hands down amazing and we have been to many establishments. I'm sure you'll be seeing us at least once a week or so from now on lol thank you to staff i wish i remembered all of your names, but hats off to all of you! 💚

My mom and I went here our first night in town when I moved and we were blown away! We loved everything; the huge water glasses, amazing food, and community-style service. I am excited to try more dishes!

The food is absolutely delicious. I tried like half the menu and its all amazing. Definitely worth trying put. The service is great, the waiters are super kind and patient. They are 100% willing to meet any accommodations necessary. Though it didnt sound like there were any gluten free options.

Overall, my experience was positive. The establishment was clean and offered a pleasant ambiance with multiple televisions for sports enthusiasts. While the prices were higher, the generous portion sizes justified the cost. I highly recommend the steak for its exceptional flavor. Although the service was slightly lacking in terms of attentiveness, particularly for a large group, it is understandable considering the apparent busyness of the restaurant. I recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a variety of quality food options, including burgers, pizzas, wings, and steaks. The restrooms were well-maintained and clean, and there was a hostess available to seat customers promptly.

Went in for lunch last week on Friday, food was great, service was pretty good but definitely could of improved. When we sat down it was great they were on it getting everything we needed.I ordered a flight to try what they had then ordered a beer when I had finished the flight. As soon as I got my beer they made it seem like they wanted us out. They were easily making 50 bucks a person. We were planning on try a couple of other drinks to get a taste of what they had to offer but I guess they didn't want to make money. I saved money in that sense.

My family and I stopped by here for dinner before we explored the Festival of Lights. They've decorated the inside with lots of holiday lights so it has a very fun and festive vibe. The menu is pretty huge, and so are the portions! I'm so glad our server gave us the heads up that the portions are generous. Drinks come in HUGE mugs, so if you order them, be prepared to hit the restroom frequently. The 4 of us ordered 2 entrees and 1 appetizer and we still brought leftovers home! We ordered: *Fiery BBQ Mac & Cheese - very rich and cheesy. But not fiery like I thought it was supposed to be. *BBQ Chicken Pizza - Good, but not a fan of the olives on the pizza. *Baja Chicken Sandwich W/ Curly Fries - menu indicated it was a spicy dish, but I didn't taste the heat. It was still tasty regardless. Overall a solid place for some good food and good ambiance. Just don't expect the spicy dishes to be spicy.

I met my friend here for lunch on Thursday 11/20/25. We were able to get a table inside after waiting approximately 5 minutes. Our server immediately greeted us and ask what we wanted to drink. I've ate at Heroes before and remembered their portions of food are large. My friend and I ordered the Cajun Shrimp Pasta for $32.45. This entree is enough to eat for the next 2 days. We were surprised our food arrived within 10 minutes since ordering. The Cajun Shrimp Pasta comes with 4 pieces of cheese bread which is very good. Don't eat all the bread though or you'll get full quickly. The staff are checking on you quite often to see if need anything. Overall the experience was great. The food, drinks, customer service & atmosphere were great as well. Sorry forgot to snap a pic of my food.

Again amazing food as ALWAYS food delicious and the amount you get worth the wait and price for sure. So far, never been disappointed after a visit!!!! Thank you for excellent service and the experience.

Food was amazing here! The quality of food and portion of serving was perfect. I appreciate the great customer service and atmosphere and am looking forward to coming back to try the ribs!! Great environment and well decorated for the southern style. Thanks !

A Fun Spot in Downtown Riverside With Amazing Food! This was my second time visiting Heroes, and I'm officially a fan. The first time I came, the service was great and the vibe was super chill since it wasn't too busy. The food was already really good, and it felt like the perfect place to hang out with friends and watch a football game. But my second visit? Absolutely delicious. They made me one of the best pizzas I've ever had -- definitely in my top 10. I don't know who was in the kitchen that night, but the pizza was truly perfection. My friend ordered a pineapple cheese pizza, and whoever made that one too deserves major props! The place itself is super cool. They have a big bar area, tons of space, and everything is really clean. The staff is friendly and they seat you quickly, even when it gets busy. I also love that they make their food from their own deli -- you can taste the freshness. Plus, the different seating areas are a huge bonus: they've got a restaurant section, a bar section, and a nice outdoor patio with a bunch of TVs. It's such a great spot to eat, drink, watch sports, and hang out. The food here is consistently delicious, and it's definitely become one of my favorites in Riverside.

Environment was fun, playful and cheerful. Food was great. I ordered the corn on the cob and that sucked. Service was great. We had like 5 waiters and waitresses.

Ordered the appetizers and fish and chips and the chicken Ca club which was very dry wouldn't order it again but the fish and chips were good also the appetizers were good and huge portions staff was good also no complaints

Heroes is a Pub Bar & Grill located in Downtown Riverside . It has fun decor and a good atmosphere. Everything on the menu sounded delicious but we went with the Southwest Spicy Brisket Salad. The salad was fantastic! Fresh and just the right amount of dressing. The service was outstanding! We went during lunch and they were fairly packed, and our food came out quickly. I say this place is definitely worth a try. And if you come in during a sporting event I'm sure you'll have a blast!

My overall experience was good. The BBQ mac n' cheese was the best part of the meal because it was rich, flavorful, and easily a 10/10. The salmon sandwich was disappointing, as it was fried so much that I couldn't taste any real salmon, and the portion felt skimpy. The toppings and bread were just okay. The vibe inside the restaurant was really nice, and everyone around us seemed to be enjoying themselves. They played hip-hop and popular radio hits, which made the atmosphere fun. It was a good place for a date with my husband, and I would come back to try other menu items.

Been here a few times. And only come for like a celebration. Each time we've came we've never had a wait time so that's a plus. We have had tables of 6 to like 12 guests. The inside is pretty dark and plenty of seatings. They have a bar area as well. Indoor and outdoor seating maybe up to the guest. But we've always say inside. Will say during some games it does get loud in here which is not my personal fave but hey if you like sports this is your place. But give sports vibe Be warned the portions are HUGE!!! And I mean huge. Never been able to finish a meal or at times I share it with someone. Stuff I tried Classic Reuben 10000/10 this was my newest try and must I say I loved it and it was my favorite thing on the menu I've tried!!! Soup 10/10 I forgot which it was but it had sausage and chicken I believe. With some veggies!! It was delicious a good amount of veggies and meat. Sticky ribs and fried 8/10 not a fan of potatoes but the ribs were good!!! Famous cheese bread 8/10 nothing too special but the cheese pull is always nice! Jacks hot legs 9/10 love how saucy they are!! And how can someone mess up wings. Am I right? Thick sliced Texas BBQ Brisket sandwich 6/10 it wasn't my personal fav and I've tried it twice but it wasn't my thing I've tried more stuff but if I keep adding this review will be like so long ahahahaha. Overall. Big portions and pretty good bbq. Won't say it's the best place or worst but never had a bad experience!

When I pulled up, I expected it to be a long wait, but I got seated right away. I was also greeted by our waitress with water. And not too long after the manager walked by and asked if everything was OK. I will say they are very attentive here. I ordered the steak and eggs, with the eggs fried. I did specify I wanted the yolk runny and the white cooked well. When the food arrived, the eggs were overcooked so I had to settle for scrambled eggs. I ordered my steak medium well and it was very good. Very tender! The menu and the portions are huge so I can't wait to go back and try something else.

We were going to a concert across the street so we decided to kill some time and try this place out. My husband ordered me a drink & a beer for himself. My drink was 17.50 came in a big glass but unfortunately it wasn't even strong. Ive had better at other places honeslty. Our friends ordered chicken strips and fries it was a large portion but the food was cold. We were all still having a good time making the most of the visit. Checking out is were things got suspicious. My husband paid the check and i left cash tip, the check was $60.53, i left $13 for tip cash. My husband gets notification to his phone that said he paid $75. Where did this extra $15 come from?? Right away i thought something was off. So he lets an employee and they couldn't expalin why.. to me it looks like someone was trying to tip themselves an extra $15. I wont be returning to this place ever again.

Great place to unwind and grab some dinner, dessert and watch the game. Inside, bar or patio seating available. Lots of parking within walking distance in the shared business parking lot. Been here numerous times throughout the years and always have a great experience with staff and service. They're hustling around here with those large steins of beverages. Food comes in large portions and enough to share family style. Be sure to inquire. They have a few desserts available not listed on the menu.

Very diverse menu. Expect large servings that can be split into two meals. Many menu items can be shared, and if you pay for the split plate, you'll get a separate serving of sides! Really worth the small charge. Service is always great. The staff has a tag-team setup, so you're always being attended to. This place can get busy. It has a sports bar vibe that's family friendly. It can get loud inside the restaurant, but there's two outside eating areas if that's your preference.

Hero's never disappoints! Come here all the time. Service is great and so is the food. Definitely recommended

Came out for a hike Mt Rubidoux and thought well we burned some calories let's get brunch it's actually a beautiful day so we decided to eat outside! Great atmosphere cool breeze immediate service. We started with a Bloody Mary and a Michelada. Then for our meal my wife ordered the Avocado Toast and I had the California Omelette with tater tots. The Avocado Toast was visually stunning the balsamic sauce was perfect to cut through the richness of the perfect over easy eggs and avocado spread perfectly seasoned! I had the California Omelette with light fluffy eggs and crispy crunchy tender tots! We ordered some Biscuits and gravy to share but the chef was a bit heavy handed with the sage a little overpowering! Overall a great time and experience. I urge you to try them out!!

We absolutely love this spot and come here whenever we are in the area. We've come here plenty of times with family and it's always fantastic. We came here on a Sunday around 4pm and there was about a 45min wait. I provided my phone number and they sent us a text to let us know when our table would be ready. We waited about 40min before receiving a text and we were seated inside. It was a football day so it was pretty packed out. Our server came right away and asked for drinks and also took our order. My kids couldn't decide on a meal and the server was very patient to wait for them to decide. Once our order was placed we waited around 15min and the food was out pretty quickly. We ordered the chicken fingers with fries. They told us the chicken fingers didn't have dairy so that was a score. We also ordered a marina pasta and my wife and I split a pepperoni burger. Every meal was very large. We split the kids meals between 3 kids and they all were pretty full. The split of the burger was only $3 extra and we both had our own sides. That was plenty for us and filled us both. It was pretty loud inside but not too loud with football going on in the background. We got our check and another server came by and asked if our kids would like popsicles, I of course said yes and they brought some over free of charge. My kids loved them. Overall great experience and we'll be back if we are ever in the area. We love this spot!

Absolutely worth EVERY dime! Large portion sizes and drinks and honestly couldn't get enough of all the amazing food and drinks here.... If you're a lightweight beware! LOL had one drink and it was HUGE! Don't say I didn't warn ya in advance ;) Pricing is more on the expensive BUT again the drinks are huge and so are the portion sizes so they definitely don't skimp out like a lot of restaurants do, highly recommend! Lots of tv, nice music, clean bathrooms and great staff as well, will be coming back when visiting

Great Fken Staff. The food was amazing. I had the southern ceviche. The atmosphere was amazing. It broke my heart because.. I don't have a family- but they made me feel at Home . Hooah.

My review.. My Opinion..IJS...5Starrrrrrr service, laid back and casual spot in Riverside. Hang out and enjoy your friends or family with some great food. I mean everything was delicious, more than enough. Two people can enjoy one meal. We were treated like royalty which we are!! Thanks Heroes for making us heroes in Riverside.. stop by for some great food..my review my opinion..IJS

Very good food, service was excellent. Appetizers they gave lots of choices. But if you want a quiet dinner this is not the place, so load you can nearly talk to the person next or in front of you.

Good food with great service. Highly recommend if you are in the area. Great menu and beer selection. Must try the wings!

My first time trying out this restaurant and I definitely will come back. The food was great and portions large. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I sat out on the patio which had a nice breeze, plenty of space and large tables. They are a little on the pricier side, but they do have some great weekday lunch time specials, which I happed to get. Definitely a place you should try.

I think I've been here twice. It's a cool place with a chill vibe. They have a bar and bar top seating. It's been a while, but I remember the food being good. The service was good. We were seated promptly and had our questions answered by our server. Prices aren't bad, and they have a variety of beers on tap. Salmon Dip is good, and I like that it's really hot when it comes out. The Chimichurri Steak with veggies and potatoes was off the hook. We ordered a medium, and it was on point. This is also a good spot for families. The parking situation could be better, I feel like the stalls were kind of tight. Also, the restroom needed some attention. Other than that, I'd come again.

It's a unique restaurant in a good way. The first thing I noticed is the price of the food is higher than most places. Until I got my plate, it made sense. Their food portions are so big it could look like you didn't even touch your food. Service is good and the workers are cool.

felt like the "usual" food & drinks establishment (and i was correct), nothing fancy or wow-factor. lots of tvs for sports viewing, average menu selections (from burgers to beers to wings). fast service nonetheless & friendly yet attentive staffers.

This place is always so wonderful!! Everyone here is always so friendly and so helpful. The staff always seem to know their menu really well and can always help with any questions you might have. As always, the food was DELICIOUS and so wonderfully flavored (and the portion sizes are huge!!). We love to sit at the high top tables in the bar because it has the best atmosphere to just chill and hang out in! I already can't wait to go back!!

Impressive that the waiter was able to handle our large party! Wish he had more help but still did a great job! Our food was good! Bacon cheese burger and Bavarian pretzel. Only thing is our pretzel came out after our burger. But the beer was nice and cold! Loved that they accommodated our group and our bikes! I'll definitely come back to support here!

Great service and delicious food!!! I have been 3x since moving to Riverside in April and it's been great every time!!!

From the staff to the food, everything was amazing. It was unplanned. My husband and I got married on a Monday and we had our family and friends join us for an early dinner to celebrate. The staff were so sweet and nice and attentive. We had such a good time and it was definitely memorable. The drinks were amazing also.

Love heroes ! Amazing food and ambiance is fun for a night out! The service is spectacular as well !

Great food, drinks, service, and atmosphere. Very cool spot with incredible portions. The Chimichurry steak is a 15/10! The loaded mashed potatoes are to die for and so are the curtly fries. Even the veggies are delicious. This plate is huge, enough for leftovers or even to share.

I low-key love Heroes. You get a lot of bang for your buck here. Although inflation has us seeing slightly smaller portion sizes, they still serve more food than the average person needs. I like bringing my kids here because the atmosphere is vibrant and there isn't any pressure to keep it down. You can laugh loud and have a good time here. It's also good for large parties. I frequently see tables of 10 dining on the patio. The calamari app is one of our favorites and there's always so many entrées that catch my eye that I can hardly decide. The Philly was different than I'm used to, it was surprisingly good. I'm also a fan of the fish and chips here. I only wish they served a kid size pizza. Pizza is one of a few things my picky eater will eat, and we have to order a full size. I like their service style of sharing all of the tables as it ensures that my drink is never empty and I don't feel guilty about asking a random person for an extra sauce. The downside of that is you frequently have someone asking if you need something even when you just told the previous person two minutes ago that you were fine. Nonetheless, this remains in our rotation for family eats.

Great restaurant! Quick service ! Friendly and attentive staff! The food is delicious. Calamari is really good, Jacks Hot Legs are my favorite. The restaurant is big and pretty cool. They've got a bar and a lot of tables inside and outside. Their drinks are huge ! A variety of margaritas and the vibes are always positive. Also have a few TVs around the restaurant for sports and looks like you can watch from any table if you choose to. I come here anytime friends or family are in town.

Wow ...wish i had discovered this on day 1 we were here. spent WAY too much money at a mexican style restaurant up the street. a group of parents were going here (we were in town for dance competition) . there was a wait to get a table but really worth while. drinks were tasty and HUGE and reasonably priced. Food was also HUGE and reasonably priced. portions are definitely made to share. 1st visit we had a drink and nibbled our friends fries (there were still leftover after multiple people sharing) 2nd visit (next day) we had food and drinks...with way too much leftover again. Service is friendly and chaotic...no dedicated server...every server takes care of every table. food was tasty. drinks are wonderful. water is served in a GIANT mug! love it! no waiting for water refills

Great place awesome they give u free peanuts while u wait I had the ribs and highly recommended good food and great service

We came here to grab a bite to eat while waiting for the sun to set to see the Festival of Lights during the holiday season. We sat in the bar area which looked festive with the red lights but it may look like this all year round. Nice vibes in the bar area. Service was great ! Everyone enjoyed their food selections. My husband ordered and enjoyed the Godfather and I ordered the Jay bird with a side of fresh fruit which was good but the chicken was a little overcooked. It was good with the lettuce,tomato, avocado and avocado but when I ate the chicken by itself it was a bit hard to swallow without taking a swig of my beer. All in all a great experience.

This place is a go to. Close to the Mission Inn hotel and walking distance from other hotels in that area. The serving sizes are enormous, and even better the food is delicious! The serving staff are very attentive. Prices are about what you would expected. Tons of TVs and atmosphere, make for a great place to watch sports games. They also knew their own beer on tap.

Heroes Brisket Salad is amazing. Tender pieces of meat and a very very generous portion. Well Hige portion actually. The atmosphere is always friendly no matter if you're on a lunch break or watching a game having a drink this place has what you need. The service is always friendly although the wait can get long during peak hours

I ordered the T- bone steak. Steak was like a piece of rubber. I asked for well done. Got it with pink inside. Not impressed. Not a steak restaurant.

Always a must when we visit. Service is usually pretty good. Everyone works as a team, which is great when needing something. I love that they have patio seating, outside seating as well as inside seating. Great place for large parties. Inside can get pretty loud. There is usually always a wait, but not to bad. The food portions are ginormous. You walk in starving and leave with half your food. EVERYTHING is shareable. Appetizers are shareable sizes for the table. Drinks are huge. Los Fuegos was so good and spicey. If you like sweet drinks, I highly recommend the Big Stick.

Good Restaurant. Fun atmosphere, Giant portions of food, and good customer service. If you're in the Riverside area and have a big appetite definitely stop By!

Do not order online and pickup up at location Everything we ordered was no followed by what we requested lots of missing ingredients and items. Very disappointing Very poorly done and shows a lack of care for customers as well as there price you would have thought it would have been made correct as what the plate states and shows. Go to into the actual restaurant to eat much better

Everything was great excellent service first time trying the hotdog and it was really good and feeling recommended

This place is where it's happening! If you like food you'll love Heroes! The portions are Hugh so be careful. All set for the holidays it's real pretty with all the lights! Our server was nice and I saw 3 different people come over to check to make sure we had everything needed. A little loud but that's ok! This was our second time here and it's fantastic!

I have recently eaten at Heroes twice! I have to say, its great. The service is OUTSTANDING. Everyone is friendly and you are checked in on rgularly with attentiveess, but not in an annoying way. On my first visit I had a burger with fries and started with the wedge salad. OMG The salad was so good and the burger large, juicy and delicious. This week when I returned I ordered the sticky ribs appetizer. IT WAS HUGE! I ate half. The ribs are tasty and cooked moist and fall off the bone and the fries are good. You won't get thirsty because they bring your water and soft drinks in GIANT glasses. I LOVE THIS! I've been wanting to try out Heroes for a while, so now that I have, I have a new favorite in Riverside! EAT HERE.

Good vibes good drinks Good customer service Beer was great Chips and salsa good A little packed but only because it was Mother's Day

Heroes has always had great food and drinks. But last 2 times, service wasn't so great. I still go but hopefully the service gets better.
