📄 Passage 2：レストランのウェブレビュー（投稿）

Customer Review by “FoodLover88”

I visited Riverside Grill last Saturday.
The food was delicious, especially the seasonal dishes—although they ran out of the steak option by the time we arrived at 7:30 p.m.
Luckily, the staff recommended another dish, and it was great.

The restaurant was very busy, but the atmosphere was comfortable.
However, I had e-mailed them earlier in the day to change the number of people in my reservation, and I never received a reply.
It would be helpful if they responded more quickly.

Overall, I would still recommend the restaurant.
