    Hands down the best food in town. They have a large menu and plenty of vegetables! The BBQ sauce is homemade and so so good! The Sangria is delicious, too! 10/10 every single time!

    Pulled pork sandwich, Applesauce, mashed potatoes w gravy

    I feel bad bc I have a lot of nostalgia for Hickory Hollow and nothing was wrong, but the pulled pork sandwiches were really just fine. So were the collards. It's not bad by any means; we ate all our food, we'll likely go back again. My kid loved the applesauce. The corn fritters are a must-order.

    So sad they dropped the smoked prime rib from their menu. Staff was polite while explaining the new menu.

    What a hidden gem! I am originally from Charleston,SC and struggle finding southern food,…read moreespecially collards. I was very impressed with the shrimp and grits, cornbread, and collards! Everything was so fresh and presentation was nice. We sat outside and it reminded me so much of home! Very peaceful and cozy! Will definitely be coming back!!

    This was an interesting restaurant. It was literally in a neighborhood and we thought we were in…read morethe wrong area, but no, the correct spot. We ordered the fried green tomatoes, fried chicken, a vegetable medley that included collards, black eye peas, Gabon beans, and boiled peanuts, and corn bread, which was delicious. However, the crab cakes were nothing but fried, seasoned bread and a half baked mac and cheese where the cheese was not even melted! I think what took the cake, was the waitress who was obviously having a bad day. We overheard a customer asking how much the cornbread, and she told him, "free because you don't like it!" Oh and when we tried to pay for the food, their credit machine could not read our numbers, so we had to give them three different cards and then received no receipt!! The ambiance reminded me of being at one of my friend's row houses in DC back in the day, so use your imagination. I think this is a place a lot of locals hang out and get better service. For first timers, good luck in getting a waitstaff with a better attitude.

    This restaurant is located on the end of a dock just north of Bradenton, great location…read more Servers were attentive, food was very good. We went with a large group and had reservations. I believe everyone was pleased with their meals. I'd recommend this place for those wanting a romantic dinner for two or a celebration for a group.

    Food was pretty good, but the service was absolutely horrific…read more First off, we waited at the table for over 10 mins without any service. I had to go remind the hostess that we were there and waiting. No apologies. When the server, Michael, came over he said "I'll go get you waters since you guys just got here." No. Actually we got here 15 mins ago and you know that because you walked past us twice. Then he dropped a water glass on the table lol. Ok, fine. Took forever to get a water and we had to ask for a drink menu and ask for a kids menu. I guess they didn't see the stroller or remember that they brought over a high chair. Whatever, we can move past it. What I really can't get past is that EVERY SINGLE thing we ordered was MISSING something from the plate. Cornbread appetizer was cold when it arrived. Can't say that I ever received food in a cast iron skillet that was served below room temp. Ordered the house salad... had to send it back because it was missing the cheese and nuts. Ordered a bowl of soup... they brought out a cup. Ordered the kids French toast... they forgot the side of bacon. Ordered the tacos with fries.... They forgot the fries. Ordered the eggs Benedict.... They forgot the side of potatoes. They had to be doing it on purpose, right?! You can't be a wanna be classy restaurant on the water and be open on holidays and be THAT incompetent, can you?? Oh well. Their loss. Won't be back and would not recommend The Riverhouse to anyone.

This creative twist on eggs Benedict is pure Southern comfort food heaven. It starts with two fluffy, perfectly split biscuit halves as the base (way better than the usual English muffin for this vibe), topped with crispy, hand-breaded chicken tenders that are golden, juicy, and seasoned just right. Then come two impeccably poached eggs with those runny yolks that ooze out beautifully when you cut in. The whole thing gets smothered in rich, creamy country sausage gravy that's loaded with flavorful sausage bits and has that perfect peppery kick without being overwhelming. Every bite is an explosion of textures and flavors: the buttery biscuit, the crunchy-yet-tender fried chicken, the silky eggs, and that savory gravy tying it all together. It's indulgent, hearty, and ridiculously satisfying--exactly what you want when you're craving something over-the-top for breakfast or brunch. Served with their hashbrown casserole (which was cheesy, crispy-edged perfection) on the side, I left stuffed, happy, and already planning my next visit. The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, service was friendly and quick, and the portions are generous without feeling excessive. If you're anywhere near a Toasted Yolk location, do yourself a favor and order the Southern Fried Arnold. It's not just breakfast--it's a mood-lifting masterpiece. 10/10, will crave forever!
