    I found these great reviews online for places to go while on vacation in Chattanooga. My wife and I decide to have dinner with my 5 year old and 2 year old at the River Street Deli. So its 7pm and we arrive to a filled restaurant with only one table available we are seated immediately. While waiting for a highchair for my son we were asked if we had a reservation. Since this is a deli and there was no mention of reservation requirements on the website or any review I had read I never thought one was required at a deli. Guess this staff did? They asked us to leave! YES, I WAS ASKED TO LEAVE. I HAVE A 2 YEAR OLD & A 5 YEAR OLD & THEY ASK US TO LEAVE. THIS IS NO WAY TO RUN ANY KIND OF BUSINESS. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TREATED THIS POORLY ANYWHERE SOUTH! MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE NOT TO PATRONIZE SUCH AN ESTABLISHMENT.

    Was in Chattanooga for a day and friend brought me here for lunch. Good stuff. Had the special of the day, meatloaf sandwich, and no complaints.

    this place a a great find. the food is great - the lunch menu is varied and everything i've had so far has been delicious. servings are pretty generous and there are some unusual combos on the specials menu, which seems to change daily.

    i've been to chattanooga on business 4 times over the past five years, and every time i come into town i head to this place for lunch. if i'm here for 3 days, it's 3 lunches at river street. the owner is very friendly (and funny) and makes you feel right at home. i highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great lunch at a moderate price.
