    We searched several seafood restaurants in downtown Savannah and were happy that we went with River House. From the ambiance to the service to the amazing appetizers and incredible entrees, our experience was great!

    The best part of the meal was the customer service. Lesli is a fantastic server who treated us like she would her own family. The atmosphere was cute, and you can tell it's frequented a lot by tourists. Unfortunately, most of the food lacked seasoning, which was disappointing but an easy fix with the table salt and pepper. My group ordered the calamari appetizer, which was the highlight of the meal. The lemon aioli was superb and balanced the dish. Over all food was 3/5 and a solid place to eat.

    Our party was of four and three of us were not satisfied with our food. The coleslaw was not crispy and very mayonnaise’ey. The bacon for the wedge salad wasn’t fully cooked and the Mac and cheese was dry. We’ve eaten here several times just unfortunately this visit the food was much to be desired. There was a family of four by us and the children were unruly (not restaurants fault) it was just very noisy and loud.

    Service was great. Very cute place by the river. Prices were very good. All our food was very good except the bread pudding was a bit tasteless. But I recommend eating here.

    Thank you for the kind review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the service, atmosphere, and most of the food. We appreciate your feedback on the bread pudding and will certainly take it into consideration. JR will be thrilled to know his service made such a positive impact—he truly goes above and beyond! We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    We were disappointed in our dinner. The food was served lukewarm, it was ok, not great. Service was good, but for a meal of this price we expected more.
