An oldie but goodie. Art’s Bar and Grill has the dive bar feel. Good food, many beers to choose from and delicious food. We were pleasantly surprised how good it was. Service was great, you must stop by to try out this hidden gem in Riverside, CA.

Super cool old school Hollywood vibe. Great food and great entertainment. I had the top sirloin steak while I watched randoms do karaoke. The steak was excellent and the service was elite.

If you like waiting 20 minutes for bread and its burnt then this is your place! We ordered a salad i guess salads are made with no lettuce now??? Never again!!! I tried called Art’s there is no phone number listed ,the phone listed is out of order!

I hadn't been to Art's since the new owners bought it. My friend's sister-in-law was Art's Daughter. I love what they've done to the place. I came here to listen to some friends of mine's band, Raincross Drive, and was very pleasantly surprised. Great job!

I was there late for the band and it was great. It's a small place so go early if you want to seat down. The service was slow but I guess it had to do that we ende up sitting with a couple that had been there for a while. Prices are reasonable and the couple said the is great. I look forward to going there again.

Arts is one of my favorite spots. A true hidden gem with an absolutely brilliant and supportive karaoke crowd on Thursdays. The food is great and the atmosphere is unmatched in Riverside.
