Not Your Mamas Kitchen - Soul Food - (Near Ontario, CA)

Christine schieffer Found this place by accident and glad we came in. The food is amazing! You have to order at the counter and they bring it to you. I saw tons of craft beers in cans. Not sure but I think I saw 2 taps. Parking is super limited. Has a bathroom but I didn’t use it. I had a special that was posted on the wall. Super delicious.

Connor H. I had a fantastic dining experience at Craftz Lounge, located in downtown Riverside. The food was absolutely delicious, with rich and perfectly balanced flavors. The Pan Seared Filet Mignon was tender and juicy, paired beautifully with perfectly roasted vegetables and potatoes. The Shrimp Ceviche was incredibly refreshing, with just the right balance of tang and spice, and the crispy chips were a perfect complement. The atmosphere was equally impressive—stylish yet comfortable, making it a great spot to unwind. I also loved the music, which added to the overall ambiance and made the visit even more enjoyable. Their cocktails were also outstanding, crafted to perfection and elevating the entire dining experience. If you’re in Riverside and looking for a fine dining experience, Craftz Lounge is definitely worth a visit!

Jason Harris Great place! Laid back casual diner. Friendly wait, staff. The food is awesome as well. They have a country fried steak made from PRIME RIB and is HUGE! It even comes out med/med-welll!!! Gravy is just ok, not entirely made from.scratch you can tell, and the potatoes are good. This is probably one of the best chicken fried steaks out there and definitely the best in Tahema County. With some scratch gravy it would be over the top.

Wergin Carl (Nor_Cal_Dreamer) Wow! A hidden gem! Not overpriced and lots of food. 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed this place!

Corey Clendening Very good food, gluten free crust was perfect for my wife and her allergy, it was very crispy and done well, above average for that specific crust, the standard crust is crispy outside, soft inside, good toppings and spread overall. Wish I had taken pics of the food, I forgot. The waitress has been there for 25+years and is sweet as can be. We love the nostalgia and definitely like trying the small hole in the wall restaurants in an area while visiting, we would definitely eat here again. For any negative critique of the place, someone was burning an incense in the bathroom, that smell was obnoxious but to each their own. The calzone should come with a bigger cup of sauce, but Im also sure had I asked for more I would have received it without question or cost, you can tell I am searching here just for some feedback to help them TBH, we enjoyed the meal. Getting refills was not perfect, but the wife drinks more than the average person when eating so this is common for us, and I dont think the waitress was used to this.

Rae K. Parking plenty Clean & great natural lighting. Didnt wait long to be seated for a party of 3 on a Sunday morning. It was busy though. Service, great. Every worker that interacted with my family and I was welcoming & friendly. Every bite of everything we ordered was DELICIOUS. Portions were PERFECT especially for my family & I.
