"Had lunch there with friends sitting out on the deck overlooking the river. We all had seafood dishes. While being edible, we were surprised how bland the meals were. I guess the owners count on the view to overcome this..."

"Food not bad. Service ok. Not cheap. Paper "tablecloth" on top of traditional white tablecloth. No view. Just another restaurant."

"Only seating on a beautiful day was in the sun. We weren't prepared for the heat, but that is not their fault. We should have left or waited for a shaded table. We were seated at approximately 2:45 pm. Happy hour started at 3. No one told us happy hour with reduced prices began in less than 15 minutes. (One door into the restaurant advertised happy h..."

"This big restaurant has beautiful decor and located on the waterfront.

We ordered tuscan chop salad with shrimp, grilled French onion soup,
and grilled grouper.

Overall quality his average and prices are expensive.

The shrimp on chop salad were small and very few. French onion was too sticky. The grilled grouper was fine."

"Let me state for the record that we have eaten at the River House many times pre-Covid and the service was great every time. This visit was different.Saturday night my wife and I arrived for dinner and were told there would be a 15-20 min wait for a table on the deck. No problem. We sat at the outside waiting area. During our 40 min wait there were 5 ope..." Read more

"I have ate here multiple times and have always enjoyed it. Recently I ate there before the COVID-19 shut down. I ordered beef tips, they had a lot of fat on the them. Nothing was done to help fix the issue after the staff was made aware. I will continue to go there, just wanted them to be aware ."

"Ordered the mahi mahi and it cames out dry and overcooked. The waiter was very aloof and did not pay attention to our requests .We had to asked the inattentive waiter several times for ice water and bread .When clearing the table the same inexperienced waiter piled up several plates and topped them with some forks and knives and dropped a few of..."

"Riverhouse decor has been updated and the view is wonderful. Outdoor heaters and a cover make it delightful for outdoor dining. Shuttle to the end of the pier is helpful.
Food and service are just ok. Waitress served meal with food from another meal on the edge of the plate. No attempt to remove the food. Manager was attentive and apologized."

"Can not beat the location by the water. That being said, the food is not any thing worth giving a second try. We had the fish and chips and grouper tacos. The fish and chips were obviously frozen and just ok, and we question whether or not the grouper tacos were even grouper. These tacos were horrible. The fish was dried out flakes and did not appear to be g..." Read more

"We went on a Thursday night, group of 5, had no issues getting a table at 6pm. The restaurant was very loud, the noise carries and its very hard to have a conversation. Beautiful restaurant, the view of the river is nice. It is at the end of the dock and a shuttle service is provided from the parking lot. We made use of this for my grandparents. We ordered t..."

"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

"We stopped for lunch and both of us ordered the fish sandwich.. I thought the fish was overcooked and over seasoned. .. the sweet potato fries were the best I've ever had .. I'll go back for fries, for sure"

"Was disappointed today when going to the river house. They have the absolute best Sunday brunch in the area and now it seems they no longer do this. So sad. Please please bring this back!"

"If you want to eat on the water but don't want to go all the way to the beach, this is a nice option on the river. The views are nice. I personally feel like its a little high priced. I guess you are paying...More"

"This restaurant was alright. Nothing to write home about. Nothing on the menu jumped out at me, but the rest of the people were satisfied with their meals. The server was very nice. It is on the water, so the views must be gorgeous. We were there when it was pitch dark."

"We have been using this restaurant for the last 10.years. It has recently been re vamped. As a result of this the bar down stars was closed.So only the up stairs was open. We were greeted by the hostess who took us to a table outside of our choice. Amazingly a foursome walked in with a dog in a bag to the outside where we were sat. NOT A SERVICE DOG. I WOULD..."

"We were out for a birthday and our server started out with usual service. Then, we had overheard she was giving specials to another table, and we were wondering why she did not offer us any of the specials. The food was very good, but someone asked for ketchup. 20 minutes passed by without it and when she was walking up to us again, she was empty han..." Read more

"We arrived on a Saturday, right as they opened up at 11:30. There were two couples ahead of us in the line but it took the two girls working the front desk quite some time to seat us. They appeared a little dazed and confused, as there were several patrons behind us as well. It was so windy outside, we asked for a table inside with a view of the water, which..." Read more

"We were not impressed with the food the first time we ate here, so we thought we would give it one more try. I was not impressed the second time either. This time I tried the blackened red fish tacos. It took a long time for our food to come out, and it wasn't that busy. We arrived right at 11 AM, when they open so I don't understand why we had to wait so lo..." Read more
