"Visited about an hour before close, probably not the best of ideas; however, the food was good and the service incredible. Anthony, our waiter was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about menu items. After seeing all the reviews about the lobster potpie, I decided to give it a go. Anthony, our friendly waiter let me know it was available and made it easier..." Read more

"Had an excellent lunch here yesterday. Great view, great drinks, great food, & great service. We split coconut shrimp as an appetizer - they were perfectly fried and the dipping sauce tasted homemade. I had the scallops wrapped in bacon appetizer and a side of fried shrimp for my meal. Again, all perfectly cooked with excellent fresh sauces. Other 3 had..." Read more

"UPDATE: We went back a few nights later, and had better service than before. Our waitress (Ariel) was very busy but she frequently came by to check on us and ask if there was anything else we needed. The food and view were still 5 star quality, so Ariel is why I am changing my rating to 5 stars! Food = 5 stars. View = 5 stars. The service, however, w..." Read more

"The scallops were over cooked. It was very hot inside we all sweat. The management was some 20 year old in short shorts very unprofessional and not helpful. Didn't care about the customers Don't go there"

"My wife and I went to the Riverhouse a couple of months ago and I had some pretty good ribs. I liked them so much that when my brother came to visit, we decided to go back. Unfortunately, a bad decision. The ribs were dry. The BBQ sauce was not good and I won't be going back. Wife had the lobster pot pie....what lobster? Sister in law had fish and..." Read more

"Gosh. This used to be our favorite place in town. And now it's just, meh. I don't know what happened. Feels like they kind of just gave up and started serving food straight out of the Sysco Food truck. They still have a great view and it's a nice place to sit outside and grab a beer. The patio area is dog friendly, so I will give them an extra star f..." Read more

"Island Tacos are amazing. I got them with grilled Mahi. My Mom and I also split the lobster Mac and cheese. It was fantastic and definitely one of the best I have ever had! My Mom had the bacon wrapped scallops appetizer and said they were wonderful. Love the beautiful waterfront views!"

"Love the location of this resturant, the entertainment was great, the food was good.. Only reason i gave it a 3 instead of 5 was because of my server, Carmen. If you get her, youll be first to arrive and last to be attended, making your food last, making her forget about the leftover plates on your table and also having to wait until shes ALL done with peop..."

"The view alone should get 5 stars at this little gem in Parrish. I went on a weeknight and the place was packed. I guess all the locals flock to this restaurant. The 4 stars comes from the food. It was ok - in fact the food alone would have earned 3 stars. I ordered fish and chips and didn't come with any chips. I did like that the fish was lightly breaded..." Read more

"Lobster Pot Pie? WOW! It was fabulous. So were the fish tacos my wife devoured. The server was the best - friendly, informative, very courteous. It was a fantastic lunch experience and we will most certainly return especially when it's a little warmer so we can enjoy eating on the outside deck."

"Great location without question , sitting outside watching the river flow by is a wonderful experience , drinks menu is good , but the food is far from stellar , we ordered 3 dishes & 2 were "off" , service was reasonable & plenty of parking albeit with a longish walk along the pier before you arrive"

"I give them two stars just for the customer service alone. Full rack of ribs and my 200lb beast of a husband couldn't make himself love them. You know you have a problem. I ordered the shrimp and scallops pasta.., the scallops were so small, I questioned the authenticity. This restaurant sits right on the water.. The ambience was ok but I just was hoping for..."

"Since moving to Palmetto in June of '15, our family of 3 has dined there 5 times, and the appetizers, drinks and food was good ( not incredible but the prices aren't outrageous either) the atmosphere a bit too loud by the bar, but we enjoyed dining there fairly early to beat the crowds, and try to sit as far from the bar as possible. We took a relati..." Read more

Notable dishes include the Island Calamari, which is crispy, fresh and full of flavor; the Lobster Corn Chowder, which is creamy with great lobster meat; the Lobster Pot Pie, a bundle of baked goodness; the Cajun Crawfish Burger, which has juicy meat and a great, spicy sauce; the Fish Tacos, which are topped with great aiol..."

"Great view but wow, my partner got sick and threw up right when we got home. The Mahi was uncooked and he took a bite to realize that...though they fixed it along with the bill, it was late. The fish bite was ok but had some weired taste in some of them. Lobster Fritters were ok. My sushi was disappointing, slightly hard rice, with odd ingredients such as ch..." Read more

"Just Ok. Tried it twice, won't go back. Menus are sticky and mine was smeared with what looked like mashed potato (still wet) that I had to wipe off to read. Tacky and messy. For openers, they serve a 'pina colada' sweet white bread with cinnamon butter - too sweet for us. Seriously overcooked and under seasoned vegetables look like t..." Read more

"First time here. We were excited to go someplace new. Service was horrible...slow and no apologies. Was happy to get out appetizer of oysters...large and delicious, however, the crackers were super hard/stale...every package. We asked for different crackers...again, hard and stale. Our server brought bread While we were waiting for our entrees....bl..." Read more
