Nestled on the bank of the Illinois River in Hardin, Ill., is the Illinois Riverdock, a down-home family restaurant featuring smoked meats, sandwiches and classic home-cooking. Each year, river-goers from across the United States make their way to the Illinois Riverdock, park their boats and enjoy a meal made special by Certified Hereford Beef.

Established in 1994, the Illinois Riverdock has seen it’s fair share of flooding from the river, but that doesn’t stop the owners from pursuing their dream of operating a river-front restaurant serving the best beef in town.

“We use CHB steaks, brisket and ground beef,” says Lauren King, Illinois Riverdock floor manager. “The brisket is by far our most popular item and best seller. Certified Hereford Beef is a great product and our customers love it.”

Whether you need to park your boat – or your car – the Illinois Riverdock restaurant is waiting for your visit with open arms. Stop in for a taste of the best beef on the river!
