"We stopped for lunch and found the Yuengling Battered Fish and Chips Basket to have fish that was chewy and tough and the coating was also tough. The fries were very good though. It took a very long time for the order to arrive and maybe it was over cooked? I had the Lobster pot pie which consisted of chopped cold-water lobster, vegetables, potatoes, shallot..." Read more

"Wow was the lobster risotto delicious! Highly recommend. Also their bread was outrageous. It had pineapple and coconut taste and was served with some type of sweet butter. Beautiful atmosphere right on the bay. We also had a mermaid as our waitress. Well basically, her name was Ariel and she was so friendly and knowledgeable. No complaints. Will definitely b..."

"Every Wednesday from 3 'till close, you can buy a bottle of house wine for $9 and take home what you don't drink...if that's the case. What a deal! I always take a visiting friend here to see the sunset over the Manatee River from the deck and enjoy a great meal here, too.So many fish choices! You can't go wrong with any of them. I have never had..." 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."

"What a great dinner at the Riverhouse in Palmetto. The food was all very good. Our server was very helpful and friendly. It was busy on a Sunday evening. We were told there would be a 30-35 minute wait, but they called us for our table in about 10 minutes. The fried grouper tacos were great, with a lot of fish. The lobster corn chowder was very tasty. Others..." Read more

"Camping nearby and I had read up on this restaurant. Looked at webpage and signed up our Birthday and Anniversary dates. Yesterday I received the coupon for our anniversary, so we went and tried it. I had called and asked about a reservation but since we were coming early we didn't need one. We were seated inside with a great view of the dolphin frolicking i..." Read more

"This is a beautiful spot. Great view...That's where it starts and ends. The food is so subpar, especially for the price. We ordered the calamari. It was the highlight of the meal, excellent! The oysters were only mediocre. We are from New England, so maybe our standards are high when it comes to fresh seafood. I had the crab cake sand..." Read more

"Great views and good food. We love going for an afternoon snack, drink and great views. The service was good, but I think they had our waitress spread a little bit thin. They were accommodating in seating and they have great prices."

"Our second visit here while in vacation in the area. Very satisfied with everything. It had been a stormy day and their outside seating was closed, but because we wanted to be outside they cleaned up an area for us and let us sit outside for our Anniversary dinner. It was a clear evening. The male waiter was so nice and gave us a free dessert because of our..." Read more
