"Lots of oil in the shrimp salad and the Romain lettuce 🥬 was drenched soggy. 18$ wasted Fries were crispy but the oil tasted burnt. They probably don’t change oil in the fryers that often. Sweet tea was good. Wouldn’t go back to spend my money for street food at luxury price"

"Jumbalaya was bland (no spice at all) with undercooked rice. Chicken in meal was dry and overcooked. I can eat anything but this food gave me a belly ache."

"For many years the has been our go-to place when out with friends. Sadly, no more. The menu has been cut back considerably. I’ve always loved the shrimp tacos, but they’re no longer an option. I asked if they could be special ordered since fish tacos are still available, but I was turned down. My wife used to love the butterfish, but it’s not as good as it o..." Read more

"Horribly disappointed in our dinner out tonight. We bragged about Riverhouse and brought friends to dinner tonight. We had a reservation and it was definitely not necessary. We were seated in the back corner of the restaurant and were seemingly forgotten by the waiter as he didn’t really check on us and we had to ask him about the specials. We started wi..." Read more

"We used to love this place and visited regularly, but the recent changes are most unwelcome.  Now, for example, instead of entrees coming with a choice of two sides, they already come with a pre-decided side that makes zero sense: Who serves teriyaki butterfish or sesame-ginger salmon with Spanish rice?!  Why does mahi with poblano sauce come with parmesan p..."

"While we have eaten here numerous times, recently we were seriously  disappointed.  The slow service and the cold  food did not make our Saturday night dinner with friends glow.  The waiter apologized and the manager placed the blame on the new kitchen staff.  Ultimately that's his responsibility;--("

"Good location. Terrible food. Wanted to take mom out for a special meal. While the setting is lovely, all the food we had was terrible. Lobster pot pie was dry, bland and terrible. Caesar salad was wilted and seems to have been prepped the day before and sat in the fridge. The firecracker chicken was semi-edible but I think it’s a mistake to use breast meat..." Read more

"The food was barely average. 2 out 5. No seasoning. The service was very friendly and attentive but slow. Understaffed. 3 out of 5. View was beautiful and the restaurant was clean. Too expensive for the food quality."

"We went to the river house yesterday for lunch. The view and the table was absolutely beautiful. I don’t care for the new artichoke spinach dip. The Cristini’s that came with the dip were stale. My lobster corn chowder was way too thick and had too much starch and not enough seafood. My husband’s fish dinner was not crispy and the fries were cold. We were v..." Read more

"Came in with some friends for dinner after a long day out on the boat. We were all starving for the calamari, which was delicious. However, after that it was nothing spectacular. Our server was not personable or even somewhat pleasant. I ordered the gulf grouper only because it said it came with mushroom risotto that I was highly disappointed in and had zero..." Read more

"i can't imagine whose idea it was to napalm that wonderful menu that this restaurant used to offer.  No more crab cakes?  No shrimp pasta chablis?  No fresh catch choices?  Where are the sides?Three of us came in on Sunday, August 27th with a reservation.  Seated immediately outside as there were plenty of tables available.  Our server hands us the lunch..."

"Our 2 previous visits were not great. The food was good on those visits, but both times, we were missing items we had ordered (one time it was the salads). No one checked on us throughout those meals, to see if we had everything, and if it was satisfactory. This recent (our 3rd) visit was definitely our last. The grouper sandwich and fries, at $38, was truly..." Read more

"Menu change, so many favorites have been removed along with your choice of sides for your entrees. Food was subpar this evening, very sad this used to be one of my go to places for consistency and menu options, sadly. Or any more."

"The river view is great. Don't eat here. Their food is expensive and subpar. 6 medium shrimp & 3 small scallops with Burned steamed cauliflower. $26. How do you even do that?"

"Good view is the only thing I could recommend. Waitress was pleasant but her outfit looked like she was at the pool or beach.  Good generic and nothing to write home about. I'll stick to pier 22 where their food and atmosphere is classy and elegant."

The meal came to us by another food delivery person not our waiter. Would not matter but wanted bread that we never got for our pasta, and another drink.  We ask another waitress to send ou..."

I said I have a reservation and they said wait for 5 minutes. People were walking in & given pagers for when their table was ready. We were not given one. 2. I waite..." Read more
