What People Are Saying
from Google"Got the famous seafood chowder. It came out quick, a little too quick. The soup was almost cold, kitchen staff should know better. Our waiter was awesome, he remedied the situation quickly. Once we were served hot soup, I was very impressed, it was really good, seasoned perfectly👌! Atmosphere and our waiter (including hostess that was very friendly and welcoming) deserve five stars. Kitchen staff gets 3 stars. To the cook's outback: why don't you sit down and eat a cold bowl of seafood chowder...... or try not serving cold soup."
"Amazing happy hour menu and service! $1.50 oysters, shrimp cocktail and spicy tuna bites from 12 to 4 pm, with no limit! Excellent service."
"Had a great and refreshing time visiting Portsmouth! We enjoyed a beautiful lunch at the River House on the riverside. The atmosphere was lovely, and the food—especially the chicken tenders and fries—was delicious. A bit on the pricey side, but the view and vibe made it worth it. Highly recommend for a scenic, relaxing meal! 🌊🍽️"

"Really nice restaurant with great views across the water. There's plenty of seating inside, but on a nice day you've got to sit outside. I was slightly disappointed with the crab cake but the fish tacos were excellent."
