"We came here ready to celebrate a bride to be at a beautiful location and we were SO disappointed. Our waitress was clearly annoyed with our table. She was seen gossiping with other waiters and her manager. We were nothing but polite to everyone. Our celebration was not acknowledged even in the slightest. We were so uncomfortable by the end of our dinner. We..." Read more

"Had wonderful service which, if the food was prepared correctky, would have been clearly a 5 star review, however, I had to return the Jambalaya plate, not bowl, since it was not only 100% chicken but cold and not sure what recipe the chef was using. Since when is Jambalaya served in white sauce????My guest ordered lobster mac and cheese, $24, and t..." Read more

"My wife and I sat at the bar for 10 minutes with no bartender in site. Next to us was a couple with empty glasses who said they hadn't seen the bartender for quite a while before we sat down. At the end of the bar was the manager chitchatting with a couple of waitresses. Then,finally, the bartender appeared stuffing her pack of Newports in her pocket. It bec..." Read more

"The only good thing about this place is the view.The food was below average, but the bigger issue is the overall cleanliness of the restaurant. We were given dirty side plates, a dirty fork and dirty water glasses. There were greasy fingerprints all over the glass doors and the ladies room had a very strong smell of urine and it's hard to tell when the l..." Read more

"I really wanted to like this place. (The downstairs part). I love places on the water, and this one is very close to the ballpark which makes for a nice outing, especially these days when I'd rather be outside to eat. If you're just coming for drinks while enjoying the view, this place would fit the bill. The water is lovely and relaxing after a day out. Sad..." Read more

"I just moved here in August 2020. I'm telling you I've been ordering the kickin' chicken once a week if not every other since then. It was hands down the best. Everyone who visited us from Boston had to have it when here. I hate to have to write this but recently not only has it gone up in price from $7 to $9, the chicken is not cut up into small bites, you..." Read more

"I can't complain about the food or service, I will complain about the price increase of the food and drinks. Pre-covid a burger was $12, the last year or so it's been $9.50 now all of a sudden it's jumped past the original price to $13. Domestic beers went up $.50. Well drinks went up $1.00. These are only a few examples of the many many price increases..." Read more

"This is one of those restaurants that pictures itself as a classy, must go restaurant. They are delusional. We took the family there over the holidays mostly because of the view. While waiting for our table I asked the receptionist if we could eat at one of the empty fire pit tables on the outside. She didn't want to be bothered as our original table was a..." Read more

"Went for romantic anniversary dinner. Waited 45 mins for a table only to be sat at the vacant table we stared at for 45 next to the outside DJ. Explained to staff we looked at that vacant table for 45 mins and then you sat us there? Food mediocre - no management cared to come by. Go somewhere else"

"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

"We dined here tonight and were very unhappy from the start with our waiter. Poor service, he asked if we were good so far and we had not gotten our food yet. My husband asked where his salad was and he forgot. Then we got our food and it was bad. Fish tacos and they were very very dry. We told him and he asked if we wanted to talk to the manager. We s..."

"The first time we went here the food was good although the portions are not very large. This time my wife had the crab cake sandwich and she loved it. I had a steak and it was the toughest steak I have had in my life. I was only able to eat half of my steak. When the waitress asked if I wanted a box for the rest of it I informed her that I didn't want it bec..." Read more

"As someone with Celiac for 15 years, I do not eat out often. What happened at this restaurant is why. The menu has many options labeled as gluten free. I not only ordered a salad labeled gluten free on the menu, I also let the server know specifically that I have Celiac. My salad arrived with croutons that I did not see until after I had a few bites. I..." Read more

"Slow service, understaffed, food barely acceptable. Had the Redfish, too fishy tasting, daughter had jerk chicken quesadillas not very tasty. Blue crab appetizer was good but never received individual plates."

"So this happened. Was so excited for a visit to Riverhouse after many years. The place was inviting, appeared clean and the wait staff, attentive. Then things went down hill quickly. Two of us ordered the lobster chowder which was too salty. The manager came out to apologize, informed us they'd be throwing out hat batch, and we heard him tell the staff don'..." Read more

"Heard great things about the food so we ate there last Fall. The mussels were fabulous, but my husband got the Lobster Pot and got violently ill that night. He should have sent it back, the sauce was kind of gray in color and it tasted fishy. Live and learn. Bottom line is that we will not be going back."

"Well it's a little tough to give a review when you can't even get your server to bring you a beverage or your food. I have taken a panoramic of the whole restaurant it's almost empty, there is plenty of staff standing around laughing and a very busy bus boy, but no server. I finally got up after 15 mins with zero service, went to find her and with the manage..." Read more

"While visiting friends in Bradenton, they took us to this establishment. We waited near the bar and consumed drinks while waiting an hour for our table. We were seated outside and our waitress was polite. She took our drink and appetizer order. The drink service flowed well although the food service was UNBELIEVABLY SLOW. While we waited, five nearby tables..." Read more
