All the staff were very nice and checking on us frequently and thanked us for being there. I had the Senior catfish meal with salad and fries. It had one large piece of catfish that was plenty for me. I can tell a great catfish place by the tartar sauce. Wow was it good- plenty of onion flavor. My friend had a catfish po-boy which looked great. I sampled some of his onion rings and wished I had an order of them- light coating and perfectly cooked. Great old school restaurant with friendly folks and good fried seafood.

All in all the food was pretty good. The soft shell crab BLT was pretty creative and tasty. We wouldn't order the dressing again for the fish, it was $10 for a half dollar sized amount. Staff was friendly, nice environment for kids. The sweet potato was surprisingly pretty delish. Would go back again.

Sitting right on the river, the views alone are worth the stop--especially around sunset when the water and boats set the perfect Louisiana backdrop. The food is where Reno's really shines, especially the buffet. It's well worth it--hot, fresh, and packed with Southern and seafood favorites that are full of flavor. Everything tastes homemade, not rushed, and the selection makes it easy to find something for everyone. You can tell they keep it stocked and take pride in what they serve. The drinks are cold, the atmosphere is relaxed, and it's the kind of place where you can pull up by boat or car and feel right at home. Friendly staff, a laid-back crowd, and live music on the right nights give it that true river-life vibe that keeps people coming back. If you're in Maurepas--or anywhere nearby--Reno's on the River is absolutely worth the stop, especially if you catch the buffet

But it…read moreseems Friday is karaoke night, and the hostess told us they didn't have outdoor seating (although there is a huge deck outside with lots of picnic tables, and a bar and lots of stools lined up overlooking the river). But no dance floor and no outdoor seating. Well, anyway, we looked over the menu and decided to try the buffet. There was some good stuff there, and some mediocre. Apparently, the locals love it. They were coming in pretty thick by the time we left. Lots of fried seafood options (including alligator, soft shell crab, and frog legs), boiled shrimp, baked catfish, flounder, and a lot of other meat options. You don't see sauce piquant very often, so I had to try the deer sauce piquant from the buffet. It had good flavor, but not much "piquant." Had to add a little Crystal hot sauce. And the meat was tough and chewy. Needed a few more hours in the pot. The flounder was very good. Best thing I tried. The "Cajun style pork" was good, too - chunks of pork and smoky andouille with pineapple and oranges. Very good. The frog legs, fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, and alligator were all good, too. The fried catfish was muddy and dirty tasting (hate when that happens). If you're hungry, this is a nice place to get your fill of south Louisiana specialties - I could make an entire meal of the frog legs and Cajun style pork.

The restrooms are not air conditioned and it was just what you would expect from a seafood "buffet" in Bush would be like. A church retreat center in Loranger does a better job serving saltines. What really gets me the most is that it is a copycat of a casino buffet, without the casino revenue. And the location setting with a "disproportionate amount of frogs " makes you wonder where they are sourced from. So please Mr. Fugazi, name another buffet within a 3 hour radius where everything is "frog wafers" and "frog deviled eggs"? The gulf shrimp are 16/20's and you must be posting photos from the Westwego seafood market. Just look at the CUSTOMER posted photos. Food is unknown looking, service is "serve yourself", and the ambiance is 70's with a scent of mildew. It really needs to be emptied and sprayed down with bleach. You have to wait for food to be replenished, and when it shows up you take one. If there was lodging I would highly recommend it to anybody on the FBI most wanted list. It is gauche at best...

Highly recommend asking for her! The menu made choosing difficult because everything sounded delicious. There were plenty of seafood options, plus several great choices for our daughter who doesn't eat seafood. She ordered the grilled chicken entrée and fried mozzarella sticks and gave both a big thumbs up. My husband had the BBQ shrimp with an ah-maze-ing sauce that absolutely stole the show. We dipped everything in it--the cheddar biscuits, my hushpuppies, and even my fried catfish and soft shell crab. It was so good that I brought the extra sauce home with my leftovers and couldn't wait to eat them later that night... and I'm usually not a leftovers person! Long story short: definitely go, order the seafood, and ask for Emily!
