What User likes about River House:
I tried the oysters and they were huge, fresh, and delicious. The seafood pasta was also wonderful and had a light hint of seasoning that added to its tastiness. Everything we tried was fantastic, we loved it all. I highly recommend trying the whisky, oysters, and gherkin pickle combination for yourself. View all feedback. What Happiness14494014226 doesn't like about River House:
Initially appeared to have potential. This cozy neighborhood eatery seemed to be run by a family. The appetizer was outstanding, however, the main dishes lacked flavor to the point of being inedible. We left feeling let down. View all feedback.
