Riverhouse Waterfront Restaurant

On the advice of a friend, I decided to check out this restaurant located by a marina on the Manatee River. First of all the view was spectacular at sunset. Truly stunning. I ordered the grouper sandwich and it was fresh and tender. My appetizer was an order of coconut shrimp and it was decent. The server was friendly and the prices were very reasonable considering the prime location. You can get a draft beer for under $5. I couldn't find a flaw with the restaurant so it gets a rare 5 star rating from me.

Such a great place for a date night! We sat on the Second floor overlooking Manatee Bay at sunset and it was so beautiful! Our waitress was so helpful and sweet, which made our experience even better!

The oysters were decently large both, raw and baked. For half a dozen of each it was $26 which I believe is a decent price. The steak was so tender, it fell apart in your mouth - I highly recommend for steak lovers! The lobster mac was good - but would not order it again.

From the moment we walked in the door, the hostesses were delightful, we were seated promptly at a table on the water, our server Murphy was the absolute best, the artichoke dip appetizer was one of the best Ive ever had with the homemade chips, then we split the lobster pot pie and the burger sliders, if you don’t try the bacon jam you shouldn’t even come here. The peanut butter pie was fantastic, it’s been along time since I went to a restaurant where from the beginning to end everything was just dynamite. Oh by the way it’s so reasonably priced we were surprised when we got our bill, for the quality of service, food and the view this is a wonderful restaurant.

Excellent place on the other side of the bridge.
The living room is in the middle of a marina, surrounded by boats and water.
It is very well set and has internal spaces and an external bar over the ocean and in the back and side there are tables also on a deck over the ocean.
There is also an upper floor but generally at night I found it closed.
The food is very good, highlighting the seafood and fish but they also have meat and pasta options, in a very complete menu.
The attention is very good and they are always aware of what the diner needs.
In general, it is not very crowded, which results in a quiet and pleasant environment.
The views are really incredible and in my personal opinion they have one of the best views of the restaurants in the area.
