"We've been trying many of the local restaurants and ones on the water always catch our attention, quickly. We're glad we decided to go to Riverhouse, as the food, drinks, and service were all amazing. I would recommend reservations to get your desired seating area(inside or outside) as they can fill up fast. We don't have a reservation but was seating quickl..." Read more

"After receiving a GC from our son, we decided it was time to use it. We'll, this place didn't disappoint. The service was exceptional, and despite our appetizer being delayed (which we were notified about more than once), it was well worth the wait. The food was phenomenal. The lobster rolls and the Tuscan salad were excellent."

"Great ambience on the water. My husband and I went here for dinner on Sun. Our waitress was helpful with the menu, attentive, and wonderful. As far as the food... We got the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer. I don't know who on here recommended these, but they were not good. I'm from GA and know about my southern food, and my husband who's a FL nativ..."

"Generally, I do not give low scores, but this food was not very good. The steak salad was the best thing we ordered, and if that's what you're in the mood for, do it. Anything else, nah, just watch the sunset instead and have a drink."

"While we have eaten here numerous times, recently we were seriously  disappointed.  The slow service and the cold  food did not make our Saturday night dinner with friends glow.  The waiter apologized and the manager placed the blame on the new kitchen staff.  Ultimately that's his responsibility;--("

"Good location. Terrible food. Wanted to take mom out for a special meal. While the setting is lovely, all the food we had was terrible. Lobster pot pie was dry, bland and terrible. Caesar salad was wilted and seems to have been prepped the day before and sat in the fridge. The firecracker chicken was semi-edible but I think it’s a mistake to use breast meat..." Read more

"The food was barely average. 2 out 5. No seasoning. The service was very friendly and attentive but slow. Understaffed. 3 out of 5. View was beautiful and the restaurant was clean. Too expensive for the food quality."

"All our food was good however it was cold. My grilled asparagus was totally cold. The rice was dry and the chicken was cooked but cold. My friend's chicken Alfredo had no sauce on it. Fish and chips were good just warm enough to eat."

"Greatly appreciated the golf cart ride across the dock to restaurant entrance with my 90 yr old mom. We were promptly greeted and seated. Server took our drink order, then food order, server came back a few minutes later saying they were out of the shrimp & scampi dinner (it was 6pm) we substituted a dinner salad. Food was delicious and there is a very nice..." Read more

"If I was a food critic this place would be in deep, deep, deep trouble. The food was extremely bland. Don’t waste your money at this place. First impressions are everything and they failed miserably. - mahi poblano (fell flat) - butter fish (extremely sweet sauce, horrible)"

"We try to come here every time we camp at Ft Desoto, well worth the 35 minute drive! Every visit has been exceptional, including this afternoon. Tei is an outstanding server, and we tipped her 27% for our meal! It is so hard to maintain the standards and service expectations in today’s environment, but you all crush it on every visit👏👏👏❤️"

"Beautiful Waterfront views. We enjoyed the second floor dining. Everyone but me loves seafood so they were very pleased with the menu. I would have preferred a few more, non seafood choices. However, they did have a fried pork chop special that was delicious. This was my second visit in a week. I was invited twice for different celebrations and I was ver..." Read more

"Honestly the only reason I am giving 3 stars is because I've been dining here for over 10 years. I love this place, but we were in there for my birthday dinner on Saturday. The service and food was absolutely atrocious. REALLY hoping this was just a one off, but not too sure I am willing to find out and give it another chance :("

"I can't tell you if the food is good or not, and that's the reason for the low review. We hung out for a little over an hour after ordering without anyone telling us anything. Eventually we left the table and found someone named Tom and asked if something was going on in the kitchen and if our food would come out soon. Tom's indifference to us was pretty fa..." Read more

"Will return.

On the water with nice views. Good service and fresh food. The bathroom is really clean.

We went at an odd hour - 3:40. We were boating but have to coming in early due to the wind and rain.

The grouper taco, Caesar salad and salmon bowl are all fresh and yummy."
