"Visited this on a recommendation and could not have been happier. The setting was great for sunset dinner. Service was outstanding. The waiter was there before you asked. Both my wife and I had seafood and the portions are great and the food was superb. Definitely going to be a regular stop when visiting the area."

"Had heard good things....BUT did not have a good experience.  We made reservations and were seated promptly.  It took about 15 minutes for a waitress to arrive at our table.  We ordered apps and after about 20 minutes someone other than our waitress dropped off one of the apps and left...15 minutes later our waitress showed up again and said "didn't you..."

"Started off with a cool reception inside from hostess and almost left. We sat outside and things brightened up with our server Tyler who was new, but very friendly and attentive. Redfish sandwich was delicious and we loved the homemade potato chips. Burger was cooked properly, and portabello tacos were very good. Dogs were happy with their cup of water b..." Read more

"Pleasant experience, and a decent meal. Crab cakes were not up to snuff, but the lobster pot pie was really good, as was the calamari. I would eat here again for sure, but order a little differently. The $$$$ may be a little high, I suppose because of the location, but I feel like the food should still match the dollar value even when it comes with a great v..." Read more

"I'm not quite sure how this place gets such high reviews. We visited while on vacation and was immediately greeted with a less than nice hostess who struggled to tell us how long of a wait it would be, but also was not helpful in suggesting options such as dining at the bar. We decided to eat at the bar outdoors, where again we were greeted with mixed feelin..." Read more

"We were told that you can't make reservations and then told that we couldn't sit at two outdoor tables because they were "being held." So which is it? We sat at the bar and drank terrible margaritas out of plastic beer cups."

"My wife and i had the hogfish. Good but better in the Keys. Fries were great as was the cold slaw. Great views, very friendly waitstaff, even a cart to take you out to the restaurant at the end of the pier if you dont want to walk. Really enjoyed the Riverhouse."

"Although the food is OK and waitress service very good, do not trust the establishment to honor any coupon. My experience last night was ridiculous. After ordering the Fish Bites appetizer and mentioning the Free Appetizer coupon, the MANAGER refused to honor it because it was for a free LARGER order than the happy hour SMALLER order that we received. Abs..." Read more

"This place is more about the location than the food. I've never had complaints about the food but it isn't anything to write home about. The view definitely makes up for it. The restaurant is positioned at the end of a pier and provides for a beautiful view, especially at sunset. If you sit outside, you feel like you are sitting in the middle of the river. T..."

"I gave Riverhouse one more chance, after having their Lobster Pot Pie. Yes, indeed, the topping was a flaky crust, but what was underneath was inedible. It tasted like a concoction made in a large pot, frozen into individual servings, and then nuked to serve the customer. The lobster was chewy, and the rest of it was just plain. The second visit sealed t..." Read more
