About the River House

The River House is an excellent restaurant known for its outstanding service and a great selection of dishes. Situated right on the water, its waterfront seating provides a beautiful view of the intracoastal, and the patio remains a favorite spot for many guests. The staff is exceptionally polite and responsive, offering a sophisticated dining experience. The food consistently impresses, with dishes like prime rib, which is tender, cooked to a perfect med rare, and a large, flavorful cut. The menu features fresh fish, pasta, and steaks, all prepared with skill. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, with soft lighting and trees throughout the grounds, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is also conveniently accessible by boat, with easy docking nearby. The bar overlooks the water and gets lively in the evenings, where guests can enjoy a delicious espresso martini or a perfect gin tonic, which many find to be just right. The calamari appetizer is tender, though some find it bready, and the spicy tuna sushi and other sushi rolls are highlights. The lobster bisque is considered some of the best in the area, and the chocolate chip cookie with ice cream remains a must-try dessert. Service may be slow at times due to busyness, especially on busy days like Father’s Day, but the delicious food and fabulous atmosphere make up for it. Overall, The River House is a white tablecloth establishment with a cozy and beautiful setting, perfect for a memorable lunch or dinner in Jupiter, Florida.

We have always liked the food at this restaurant but the service has always been lacking. Yesterday we had lunch there and my water was never refilled even though the restaurant was not very busy. We asked that our french dip remains be wrapped and to include the au jus. The waitress said sure but when we got home there was no au jus. With the restaurant one third full and waitstaff standing around this is not acceptable. We have returned there many time because of the food but...read full review
I always post pictures, but honestly we are everything so quickly I was unable to get any! I can not say enough great things about this restaurant. To start, the staff is welcoming, the service is impeccable (especially Theresa), and the food is delicious. We had wedge salads and grilled artichokes to start. Most notable of the entrees had to be the ribs, they fell off the bone!!! But leave room for dessert because the cookie served in the hot iron skillet is irresistible. I also...read full review
One my wife’s favorite places to dine by the water. The Lobster bisque is among the best I’ve ever tasted.
