Ate here twice now actually since moving out here, had a very positive experience both times and the food was really good! Some things are a tad pricey, but not terribly. Good cocktails (neat seasonal bar menu too), and great service! Chicken dishes are great, friend said they have great pizza, but I didn't try. Family also ate burger, hoagie & Alfredo, all loved their dishes. Would def go back! Thanks for the great meals!

Updated May 2025; I've been going here for about 7 years. Why haven't they figured out how to get better tasting water? It tastes like it's straight from the tap. Food is delicious, but salad portions have gotten smaller. The service is excellent and you will be well taken care of! Do not skip the desserts!

Have been going here for years usually for lunches. We have had 2 high school pre reunion and pre birthday party evenings here and have been pleasantly pleased with the food, service, and atmosphere. The menu has a wide range of items to choose from and having been here in large groups we have never been disappointed . April 24, 2025. A group of 4 of us ate here. I always loved their rubens and French onion soup. No more. They have a new menu and the Ruben had no taste of thousand island dsg, in fact there was a vinegar taste to it and the soup didn't have many onions at all and the taste was severely lacking. We had brought our guests , who were from California, thinking they would have a good dining experience. I can't recommend anymore.

We order take-out at least once a month and never had a bad experience! Our go to for pick up when we don't want to cook but still want homemade great food! We have tried quite a few different meals & sides and everything has always hit the spot.

Go one time, and you’ll quickly fall in love. This stunning expansive restaurant is what we call our “home base” for a meal out. River House is the perfect location for anything from a date to hosting a large event. If you’re looking for a cozy booth tucked away, you’ve got it. If you prefer a more open feel with high tops and flat screens ( sports fans will be more than pleased), they’ve got you covered . When you enter you’re immediately greeted by the cozy yet swanky interior, with their nostalgic spinning door entry, and velvet couches in the waiting area. The updates the new owners have done have kept the original charm while adding some modern upgrades keeping the place clean and fresh.

If you’re anything like us, it’s a struggle finding a restaurant where everyone in the family can find multiple menu items they enjoy. River House offers such a broad and incredible menu, there is literally something for everyone. Add in the incredible daily and weekend specials, and you’ll always have something new to try.

If you are a dessert lover you came to the right place. They have an ever changing menu of incredible cakes, cheesecakes, tiramisu, cannolis, etc. ? which can be browsed from a massive glass case.

We have always had wonderful service, although we are partial to our favorite waitress, Lindsay. If you’re dinning in keep a look out for one of the 3 owners, as they usually will be popping by tables to say hello.

River House is a staple to the Charleroi community with a constant aray of events and local fundraisers- proving they’re not just about good food, but also about good karma.

Give them a try, and become a fan for life!

"The food at RiverHouse was fantastic. The smoked pulled pork was perfectly done, really waking up the taste buds. The beans had a wonderful smoky flavor, and the blackberry mojitos were simply divine."
