We sat at outside bar until our table was ready.

Dinner was two thumbs up. Husband had steak and lobster tail. All good.
I had lobster risotto it was ok. The bacon wrapped scallops"

"Beautiful place to sit and dine.  We live to dine outdoors and Riverhouse has a large outdoor area within a marina.  Our server, Carrie, was so friendly and attentive, which added to our enjoyment.  This will become our "go-to" place for dinner.  Reasonable prices too!"

"What more could you ask for? Always reasonable wait time that flies by if you visit the bar on the pier adjacent to the main entrance. Staff is extremely friendly and genuine. The food, phenomenal.

"I was excited to come here because of the beautiful view & it didn't disappoint. We didn't make reservations & wanted a window table so we had to wait, but we grabbed drinks from the bar so it was perfect. Their house margarita was one of the best I've ever had. I ordered the fish tacos and they were filling & flavorful. I'm very picky about..." Read more

"Great views and decent happy hour specials. Stopped in on a nice January Saturday night for some discount beverages and appetizers. The kickin chicken app was worth the visit alone. It's very a short drive over the bridge from Bradenton. Looking forward to being friends and family next time we have some visitors in town."

"Great spot overlooking the water in Palmetto. I went here with my mother in law and sister in law for brunch. Their Bloody Mary's were perfect in terms of heat. If you go here, I highly recommend trying the Grouper Sandwich. I have eaten a lot of seafood options and it's my preferred choice in Florida, and hands down this might be the best grouper I've ever..." Read more
