Rock Island Grill sits on the water at Rock Lane Resort on Indian Point, the sit-down restaurant paired with the Rock Island Tiki Bar’s swim-up pool bar. Both reopened for the 2026 season over Memorial Weekend, and the menu below reflects what’s currently posted at the resort.
What Is Rock Island Grill at Rock Lane Resort?
Rock Island Grill is the restaurant at Rock Lane Resort, seating diners lakeside on Table Rock Lake at Indian Point. It shares its outdoor deck with the rest of the Rock Island Grill & Tiki Bar setup: the swim-up bar built into the resort’s infinity pool, and a food truck that posts the same food menu during the hours the Grill’s dining room is closed.
What Are Rock Island Grill’s Hours?
Rock Island Grill is closed Monday and Tuesday. It’s open Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. The Rock Island Tiki Bar keeps longer hours than the Grill: Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., with the food truck running the entire time the Tiki Bar is open.
What’s on the Rock Island Grill Menu?
The starters are onion rings with a side of ranch for $11 and garlic cheese bites with ranch for $13.
The burger choices are the All American Burger (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, American cheese, special sauce, $16.50, add bacon for $1.50) and the Hawaiian Burger (lettuce, tomato, pickle, jalapeño, bacon, pineapple, American cheese, chipotle mayo, $18.50). Tacos come on flour tortillas with white queso, pickled onions, tomato, and cilantro lime drizzle, in chicken or pork for $15 or brisket for $17. Nachos are available with the same three proteins, chicken or pork for $16 or brisket for $18, topped with white queso, red pepper, pickled onions, jalapeño, tomato, and sour cream.
Chicken tenders come with ranch and a choice of buffalo, honey sriracha, or sweet BBQ sauce for $15. The chicken sandwich is fried chicken with pickle, tomato, white queso, and chipotle mayo for $16, and the BBQ sandwich pairs tangy BBQ sauce, pickles, cheddar, and creamy coleslaw with pulled pork ($16) or brisket ($18). The rib plate is a one-third rack of St. Louis style ribs with coleslaw and fries for $20, marked on the menu as limited quantities. Kids can order a $10 burger or $10 chicken tenders.
The taco price also includes chips and salsa, a detail easy to miss when scanning the board for prices. At the bottom, the board carries a standard food safety notice: consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase the risk of foodborne illness, especially for guests with certain medical conditions. The food truck serves this same menu during the hours the Grill’s dining room is closed.
What’s on the Rock Island Tiki Bar Drink Menu?
The posted Tiki Truck drink menu lists draft beer, bottle and seltzer buckets, and non-alcoholic options. Draft choices include Yuengling, Coors Light, Michelob Ultra, Modelo Especial, Blue Moon, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, and Kona Big Wave, priced $7.50 to $8.50 a pour. Bucket options include aluminum bottles (Michelob Ultra, Miller Light, Coors Light, Bud Light, Busch Light, Corona, Budweiser, Yuengling Flight), High Noon and Surfside seltzers in flavors like peach, watermelon, and raspberry tea, and Vodkade in fruit punch, lemon lime, and berry cherry. Non-alcoholic options include Red Bull, Coke products, and lemonade. Rock Lane’s own site advertises ice-cold cocktails at the Tiki Bar too, a detail that doesn’t show up on the printed truck board, so ask your bartender what’s currently available beyond what’s pictured here. Orders at the swim-up counter go straight to whoever’s in the pool, no walking up to a bar required, which is the main draw of ordering here over a standard poolside setup.
The draft list includes Leinenkugel Summer Shandy, Hazy Little Thing IPA, Pacifico, Cali Squeeze Blood Orange, and Woodchuck Blueberry Cider alongside the more familiar names above. Bucket pricing varies by brand: Michelob Ultra and Corona buckets run $35, while Miller Light, Coors Light, Bud Light, Busch Light, Budweiser, and Yuengling Flight buckets are priced at $32.50. The board also notes that mix and match buckets are available. Seltzer buckets from High Noon, Surfside, and Vodkade are each priced at $35, and the non-alcoholic options run cheaper, from $3.50 for soda up to $4.50 for Red Bull.
What Makes Rock Island Grill Different From Other Indian Point Restaurants?

The pool itself is reserved for guests 21 and older, and the Tiki Bar posts live music on the Corona Grand Stage on summer weekends. For how the swim-up ordering works, see our swim-up bar guide.
