    We loved our experience at River House! Sidney was our server and she was phenomenal. She made great recommendations. We tried the Grouper Oscar, the Lobster Ravioli, the Shrimp and Scallops pasta, and the Shrimp and Grits, all of which were amazing. If you get dessert, get the Peach Cobbler, it’s hands down the best dessert on their menu. Also, if you get pasta, be sure to ask for their baguette. We will definitely be back here next time we’re in Savannah!

    Mediocre food. “Risotto” was merely overcooked rice. Flounder was a tad over cooked. Fried green tomato appetizer was also just ok. Overall the meal was very disappointing.

    We went in for lunch and it was fabulous! Air conditioning and fried green tomatoes is just what the doctor ordered on a hot walk on the river.

    Our party of 5 went for lunch on a Saturday. We didn’t all arrive at the same time and the hostess was very understanding. When our full party arrived we were seated immediately. I ordered the shrimp and grits which were outstanding. Others in our party ordered the fried green tomatoes, and lobster poor boys. We would definitely return again.

    We had a fabulous birthday dinner for my husband last night. All the food was phenomenal. Started with fried green tomatoes, then had wedge salads (best I’ve ever had) … for entrees I had the Blackened Flounder and my husband had the Steak/Scallop special. It was our first time eating at the restaurant but DEFINITELY won’t be our last.

    The blue crab dip appetizer was amazing. The lobster ravioli, the Mahi and the salmon were all delicious. Dessert was so-so.

    The food was so delicious. I thought the atmosphere was going to be more upscale, but it wasn’t. It was like a normal family restaurant (at least when we were there it was). I would go back again.
