"The service here is great - they have a trolley running across the pier to transport guests from the parking lot to the restaurant in the rain! Aside from a friendly and polite staff, Riverhouse Reef and Grill body's a fantastic selection of seafood. For dinner, I ordered the lobster cakes served with a Cajun sauce. I love anything seasoned with Caju..." Read more

"3 Star because - It's simply just OK. We ordered grouper plate thinking it was local and would be fresh and delicious. It was fresh but not delicious. It was a small portion and thinner than expected. My wife ordered the grilled shrimp on a skewer and it was better than my fish."

"Great view with good food. Prices were not bad for seafood. Defiantly if you ate looking for a seafood place with a view this is the place."

"Nice river view and the breeze on the deck was pleasant. Good, attentive service and nice variety on the menu. We all enjoyed our entrees. I.think the only cause for 4 stars rather than 5 is the "bang for the buck" category."

"This restaurant is pleasant, service and food good. We were seated inside on a very warm day next to a door however which blew a hot blast of air every time it opened. We probably will go back but will know better where we want to sit. There are good prices on happy hour drinks n food a little more than we usually pay for casual dining but worth it. Nice vie..."

"Sadly the whole family wasn't too happy with our dinner. We started out with the lobster fritters and they were good, great flavor and texture but the sauce was a odd pairing. We also ordered 2 doz oysters, and while they were nice sized they had NO flavor and they are not severed with the regular cocktail sauce. Instead they serve a canned diced/puréed toma..." Read more

"We decided to stop here for lunch after having a beach day with the family. We were excited because the place looks very nice and we were looking to get some good seafood. Unfortunately all our food was extremely bland. All of the fish lacked seasoning and the coleslaw didn't taste like anything. I don't understand how you can be a chef at a nice restaurant..."

"Nice location and friendly staff, but the ingredients for the food tasted as if they were purchased from the local gas station. The fries were good though. The place seemed like it caters to older folks lacking taste buds in their later years."

"Amazing view. Food was excellent, and menu was varied enough even for us non seafood eaters. Prices were fair given the river view. Golf cart service to and from parking lot is a nice touch, and the driver was personable, funny, and very pleasant. A perfect spot for a romantic dinner, a night out with co workers, a dinner party, or a place to bring visiting..." Read more

"The Mahi Mahi special and lobster corn chowder were delicious. Surprisingly the more commonplace entrée--fish and chips--was a huge disappointment. Although the fish was described in the menu as "crunchy," it was far from it. Allegedly Alaskan Pollock, rather than white, thick, flaky, and mildly flavorful, this fish was slightly gray, thin, rubbery..." Read more

A perfect choice to relax and celebrate any occasion!The courtesy tram ride out to the restaurant is..." Read more

"Attended a wedding here. Great views of the river and the marina and a beautiful bride to boot! ** The entree was delish (Mahi Mahi). The DJ did a good job. The staff were super friendly (we had a Maine-iac waiter, which is a waiter born and bred and the state of Maine). The sunset was a "beautiful orange ball" in the words of my uncle...." Read more

"Went for my birthday and it was excellent. The server was great. Beautiful views of the manatee river. I've been to a lot of places like this in this area and have gotten below average food for above average prices. Having lived in this area for 6 years or so I've learned that there are a lot of tourist traps around here for sure. I feel like the prices and..." Read more
