"Food not great! French onion soup was a cup not a bowl, had little to no cheese and came out warm not hot! Pastrami Ruben how do you serve a Ruben without saurkraut and if your serving a Ruben what restaurant does not have thousand island dressing? Really?

"What a fun spot! Perfect romantic date idea for the sunset! Hint hint. I also think the food is very good and go on a Wednesday $9 bottle of wines! Scoreeee. I don't have much negative to say besides that it's kind of packed right now as everything opens up. I would definitely vote to get something seafood or surf and turf. Service was very attentive and kin..." Read more

"Good food, tasted great with pretty decent service. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Very accommodating to gluten free and vegetarian request in both drinks (gluten free ciders) and foods (we asked for the chips with the spinach dip to be gf as well as buns on the burgers). Only a few vegetarian options but all seemed appetizing."

"If I could give this zero stars I would. I had ordered a lobster sandwich and the bread had more flavor than the actual lobster. My boyfriend also had tried my sandwich and said that it tasted like if it was frozen and watered down for a long time. The next day I woke up at 2am with stomach cramps bad enough that left me in the bathroom for 2 hours. Later on..." Read more

"I loved this place!  The only reason I give one less star is due to the cranky hostesses. I would assume especially during this time, the hostess of all people would be welcoming and chat and create a space of safety and comfort. There were three girls up there who appeared to be angry, hot, bored, idk and when asking for a table for two outside, there was n..." Read more

"We really enjoyed this place! We wanted to find somewhere where we could enjoy a nice view that isn't super crowded, with decent food, and Riverhouse exceeded our expectations. Usually good views come with a tradeoff of subpar food, but not here.  We LOVED their appetizers - kickin chicken and artichoke spinach dip are a MUST! I definitely won't be able to g..." Read more

Very cool walk with an option to take a cart over.Upon entering, you are immediately greeted by workers. We had to wait for a table which was actually a 30 minute wait less than we we..." Read more

"My wife and I are at Riverhouse Saturday 7/25 around 1 pm. We were greeted cordially by mask wearing hostesses. On that note, all of the employees were wearing protective masks. We asked to sit outside and were lucky to get one of the last tables. The restaurant sits on the Manatee river with a beautiful view from inside or out.Our waitress was p..." Read more

"Yum! I was looking for a waterfront restaurant in the area and I found Riverhouse on yelp. I met my sister there for lunch. We were able to get a beautiful outdoor table overlooking the water, but completely covered from the sun. From the appetizers we ordered the fish dip. It was very good. From the main menu I got the lobster roll with the..." Read more
