"Spent a week in the Bradenton area and came here twice for dinner based on the view, menu, drinks and service. The first night we sat outside to take in the water view and enjoy the breeze. Julie our server took great care of us as we started with margarita and blue lagoon cocktails. Next we enjoyed the seafood corn chowder as apps. Main course entrees were..." Read more

"Lived in the area for 76 years, first visit today. Nice facility on the river. GREAT server. Wonderful presentation of meals. But sadly, the nicely prepared plates were bland. Salt and pepper didn't help a bit. Two separate entrees, both lacking any flavor. Will not return."

"Last night I was at the Riverhouse! I had the steak tacos 🌮 I'd give that 3* (from Chicago kinda hard to come close) The wings were excellent. The best part of the restaurant was Harrison our bartender. We ate at the bar and he was great! I'd sit at the bar every time. He was funny, so nice & he actually gave me fresh waters with fresh lemon every tim..." 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"

"Meal with a great view. This is my 2nd time here and both times had great meals. Had the Hawaiian chicken. Chicken was extremely moist - pineapple salsa not to sweet. Went well with the riverhouse rice. Other party had the Tampa bay crab cakes. Said they were one of the better ones around. Will be back for more sunset meals here. "

"Very nice restaurant with nice views of the water and boats at docks. Lunch was very good and service was good also. Some may consider meals a little pricey, but for going somewhere special with guests or a special occasions, it's worth it."

"We moved to this area recently and picked this place to have our anniversary dinner. Beautiful setting, but the food and service not much. We expected to be treated a little special for our special event. Server just said Congratulations and that was that. Now for the food. I ordered grouper stuffed with crab with hollandaise sauce garlic mashed potatoes and..." Read more

"We met friends for lunch; it was the first time for all of us. Cheyanne was our terrific waitress! We all were very pleased with our food: french onion soup, lobster corn chowder, baked oysters, lobster pot pie, fried shrimp, ribs, and perfectly prepared salmon. Triple chocolate cake for dessert was to die for. The gluten free cake was subpar...." Read more

"I attended the Riverhouse Restaurant with 20 friends. The crab cakes were wonderful but the big surprise was that we could hear each other in spite of the large group. They have very high ceilings and curved walls so that sounds don't reverberate off of hard surfaces."
