"Excellent New Year's Eve dinner. Very good service. Excellent oysters, crab cake and Rossini tournedos as well as the filet"

"Fabulous!!! Our server, Benny, was amazing! We ordered everything he suggested and it was hands down the best meal we've ever had - yellowfin tuna duo and crab cake appetizers, wedge salad, venison tenderloin and the pork tomahawk. The manager and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. Can't wait to return!"

"We had the best dinner here last week! Top notch service from Teddy (and team) and amazing food. We love good food and nice restaurants but sometimes at higher-end restaurants, there can be a “stuffy” atmosphere, and at the River House, we didn’t get that vibe at all which was so nice! If the Wagyu oysters are still on special when you go, they were INCREDIBLE and we aren’t even oyster fans usually. Other favorites were the strawberry burrata salad (wow), the New Zealand venison and the side of mushrooms. The warm chocolate cake at the end was also amazing! This is a great spot for a celebratory dinner or just a fun date night! The views are beautiful as well!"
