"We celebrated multiple birthdays with dinner here. While we had to wait for servers to arrive, it was worth the wait. The food was delicious ... grilled shrimp/scallops, salmon, coconut shrimp, butterfish, fish and chips. And we had the Best server ever!

"Sitting on the edge of the pier is the Riverhouse Reef & Grill, just across the bridge from Bradenton. We sat outside, overlooking the Manatee River and a marina filled with beautiful boats. All the servers and the receptionist wore masks. For the most part, the diners wore masks, but it was a little hit and miss. The tables were sanitized and spaced out..." Read more

"This riverside location is a local favorite. The seafood is fresh and tasty and the location is great for outside dining. The grouper lunch was excellent and so was the lobster salad. The server was very nice and helpful. The Covid precautions were good and the tables spaced. We enjoyed the sea gulls diving for our food 🤣🤣🤣"

"We were in the area to get a vaccine shot, up from SWFL. Not familiar with the area but we really enjoy waterfront eating and we hit gold finding this place. I'm not sure where you can park free, but we got lucky and parked at the marina in front of the shops. I noticed on street parking as well.We arrived right after they opened at 11:30 and there m..."

Those were the highlight of the night, I don’t think I’ve ever had anything so good in..." Read more

"My wife and I lived in Brandon for years and frequented the Riverhouse and went back to FL for vacation and made a point to always eat here.
Sitting outside along the river and eating excellent food and quality service has not changed.
This is a MUST if you visit this area.
Love the RIVERHOUSE!!!!!!!"

"Have some nice water views from inside dining, but nothing like sitting outside with wrap around views. Staff was extremely friendly, and our waitress was always stopping by to make sure everything was OK. Food was served piping hot and everyone's dish came at the same time. No one in our party made a bad lunch choice. Place is very well maintained and extre..." Read more

"Wanted to please special friends and this was it. A rainy night came alive as we enjoyed grouper tacos, butterfish and jambalaya - all delicious. Our waiter Rick was on the mark despite being busy. Covid safety measures were in place."

"Excellent food but it took a while to come out of the kitchen. Glad we sat inside as the birds were happy to visit the outdoor tables. My husband had the full rack of ribs that literally fell off the bone. I had the petite filet cooked to perfection. Broccoli overcooked for my taste..."

"Good food, good service, good view. We had the artichoke dip, lobster bisque, lobster pie, and chicken parmigiana. Everything was hot, tasty, and plentiful. We were pleasantly surprised when we got the bill as it was not as high as one would think. We certainly go back."

"Great service and beautiful outdoor seating. Unfortunately the meal was nothing to write home about. My guests fries came out cold, they did bring out warmer ones. My Mojito was NOT good, didn't muddle the mint and lime, no sugar cane or even simple syrup, very disappointing. Excellent dessert."

"My husband and I walked down the pier to enjoy our lunch at the restaurant. For lunch the upstairs was not opened - but it was very pleasant sitting on the main floor inside. We had a lovely view. We both really enjoyed our lunches - lobster pot pie and jambalaya. Service was also good. It was nice also walking on the pier."

"This is a marvelous place to enjoy a wonderful meal. We arrived early on a Monday evening to eat at the Reef & Grill section... good thing because it was quite crowed by the time we left. Loved the view and thought their menu was quite good. I had their Lobster Pot Pie... and what a treat it was with light, fluffy crust and big chunks of lobster meat. Se..." Read more

"We are locales and visit here many times. Always good food, good service and great views. Tonight, it was cool and some rain came in while we were eating, because of COVID-19 recommendations we always want outside accommodations. Victoria (waitress) was great, Alvin (bus and fireman- outside heaters) and the live musician in the side bar made it a great nigh..." Read more
