"How could someone not appreciate dining while looking out on an expanse of water, boats, and beautiful scenery - while encountering welcoming people. Bar-seated diners raved about the spareribs with home-made chips. The female server at the bar-seats was very attentive and very welcoming. The entire Marina/ Harbor area appeared fun, filled with different mus..." Read more

"Whenever we have out of town guests we take them here. We like going here ourselves but it always makes a nice impression on guests, especially if the weather is great and you can sit outside. We've been here so many times but the menu has a great variety so you don't get bored."

"The seafood was over cooked, dry and not warm. Price was over priced for quality. Hope you have better experience though."

"They have a great setting surrounded by water. They have an inside and outside bar along with inside and outside dining. Food is really good, but a little pricey. Loved the lobster pot pie. Also ribs and grouper very good."

"First off, the restaurant is on the pier overlooking the Manatee River. So we dined watching the birds diving for fish and the dolphins swimming up river. The staff called early in the day to confirm our reservations and ask where we wanted to sit. The greater was friendly and we were seated promptly. The restaurant was crowded as there were graduations in t..." Read more

"This restaurant is located right on the Manatee River. If you are lucky enough to score a sunset reservation it is absolutely beautiful! The food is good and reasonably priced. Lunch specials are great! No frills and relaxed atmosphere. No need to dress up!"

"I have eaten at Riverhouse Reef & Grill several times. The food is always good. The service has always been good, and the view from an outside table ( and some inside tables) is really beautiful, especially when it is getting close to sunset. I had ribs last time that I ate here and they were surprisingly good. My roommate had the combo platter and she s..." Read more

"The po' boys have crispy fried shrimp in a toasted bun with a wonderful remoulade that we get a side on top of the stuff smeared on the bun. ( it's that good). Murph was kind enough to leave a carafe of iced tea. Also a hit in any weather. Prices for delicious food ON the water are more than fair. Overall as good as it gets! Enjoy."

"Our waiter was Mark. He seriously cannot be bested. He's the singularly best server around. Bright, quick and a great personality. Our food was perfect - try the smoked fish appetizer. I'd be happy with nothing more but seated with twenty people I never heard a single complaint. We love sitting out on the patio but no matter where you find yourself you will..." Read more
