Stopped here for Friday fish fry lunch. First time here but felt very welcomed. Staff were super friendly and attentive. I had the Alaskan cod plate and my husband had the perch plate. Both were excellent. We also had a cup of the clam chowder. Hands down best ever! Highly recommend this place! read more

Outstanding food and service and very reasonably priced for the portion size. Daily soup choices and all are good. The best Friday fish fry in town, enough food to split. Extremely clean, somewhat limited space wise with a nice ~14 stool bar with a good beer selection. Just go! read more

Went there for Friday fish fry. The place was packed. Was told to register with the hostess for seating. My husband told her we'd prefer to sit at the bar. After over an hour, we were seated at a table. Due to the amount the amount of people, we ordered two drinks each. After receiving our drinks, we were asked if we were ready to order. We stated that we wanted to have a few drinks first. At that time, we were told that wasn't possible. We HAD TO order immediately. If not, we had to stand up and wait for a spot to open up at the bar. My husband stated that we had already stood for over an hour waiting and were not going to stand any longer. We were then told that we had to leave. Unimaginable! My husband is 70 years old. Apparently, there are "unwritten" rules at this establishment. We will not be going back! read more

Stopped in for perch for lunch on Good Friday. Called in for carryout. Staff I placed my order with was very positive. I arrived around 11:10am for pick-up and the bar was almost full! I was told RSP has the best perch in Green Bay. My experience was exactly that! Potato salad, Cole slaw were perfectly chilled and very tasty! But the real story was the perch! Fish was fresh, perfectly breaded and cooked. If ur still looking for a place to get fish tonight, highly recommend RSP! read more

Visiting GB. Fresh walleye was good, 3 in our party had it. French dip sandwich was good but nothing to write home about. Small Local place which is great but not a sit down place for more than 4-5 in your party. read more

Staff was really friendly but this had to be the worst fish fry I have ever had unfortunately. Got the captains catch. Got three choices of fish. Only thing good was the shrimp. The others I couldn't even eat. No flavor, just bland nothing. Fries were hard and coleslaw was ok. Served white bread and not rye. Didn't care for that. Place was small and we waited awhile for a seat. I won't ever be coming back unfortunately due to the food read more

FOODis always good, service is always with a smile,and the conversations drive the place..

Welcome atmosphere offering great perch and brandy Old Fashioneds! We will certainly be back!

Very disappointing fish fry. I gave this place a try, and spent $23 on soggy walleye, a tiny cup of potato salad, and disappointing over vinegary coleslaw. I could overlook 1 thing being wrong, but not everything. This place to me seems more like a bar than a restaurant. I am so sad. At least include a lemon for the fish? Tartar sauce was decent. I hate leaving bad reviews but I'm just so disappointed. read more

Ordered a to-go order tonight for my family that did not turn out good. The people working there were super nice. However, the food was not good. We got a burger, perch plate, blue gill plate, and chicken tenders. Opened up the box with the burger, noticed mold on the top bun. My daughter still tried the burger (picked off the moldy bun) and she said it was gross and couldn't eat it. Both fish plates came with hardly any fish, the fish was tiny, and had no flavor. Not only that, but the bread that came with the plates was all moldy too. The chicken strips were just your normal "bar type" strips. Nothing to rave home about. $71 later and we're all very disappointed and still hungry. read more

I'm 46 years old and it's the best fish I've ever had and I've had a lot of fish and the service was great too.. if I had 10 stars to give they would get them all read more

Came for the Friday night fish fry. Very good. Small local bar. I had the haddock and my husband had the walleye. Very good.

Got the combo. Fish was luke warm and greasy. Perch and walleye tasted the same - nothing special, greasy, soggy. Fish was mushy without texture. Shrimp was not cooked well - overdone in the outside and batter mushy on the inside. Cannot recommend the shrimp at all. Rye bread was stale - hard and dry, nothing special. All in all - cannot recommend. read more

By far the best fish fry we have had since arriving in GB a couple years ago. The fish is fresh, the breading is perfect, the tartar is delicious and the staff is super friendly. We take it to go since there is only high seating and our little can't handle that just yet but we are now regulars because everything we've had has been amazing! It's one of those small hole in a wall places that is a definite must try! (You won't regret it, I promise) read more

This place is legit! I got to try the perch and the walleye and the batter was light and crispy. I am so glad we decided to detour and check this local spot out. read more

3 trips so far on a Friday night. Staff is very friendly if you are courteous in return. Very busy place. Good selection of fish on Fridays (love the bluegills)! Prices are competitive considering the market these days. They do a ton of takeout, but personally I would rather eat my food hot and fresh. Breading on everything I have had is light, excepting the beer batter, which is traditionally a heavier batter. Perch, walleye, bluegills, haddock, cod, as well as a few others. No worries, it's all good! So everyone, go someplace else so it doesn't get too busy! read more

OK, this place, has to be, hands down, Top 3 places to have Friday night fish fry. We've been meaning to try their fish for awhile, after falling head over heels for their burgers and ONION RINGS, and tonight we finally got the chance. We went a little later, around 8:30 and the place was still hopping. We had the bluegill and the walleye and both were divine! What a nice change to have light, crispy, fresh breading instead of thick beer batter. The fish tasted fresh and like it had actually come out of water somewhere!! It was piping hot out of the fryer with no wait at all. Next time, we're definitely trying the perch, since that is the real defining fish in Green Bay, but I can't wait to have fish here again!! read more

Wen started a trip around Lake Michigan hunting lighthouses in Green Bay. We stopped at the Harley Davidson shop next door and asked where a good place to eat might be. River St. Pier was the resounding favorite of the staff. To say it is a "hole in the wall" is understatement. There are a few tables along one wall, a long island type counter running through the middle with bar stools and then seating at the bar. The staff was super friendly. The bartender recommended the onion rings and stated they would be the best we'd ever had. They did NOT disappoint. I have eaten a lot of onion rings in my day but I have never had any that tasted as good as these. The batter is something to write home about. I ordered the captain burger, and after the first bite, I said out loud "you have got to be kidding me that a burger can taste this good". It is a 1/4 lb brat patty on top of a 1/3 lb angus beef patty smothered in a slice of cheddar. Hands down the best burger ever. Love the nautical decor. read more

The onion rings are a must! However everything you try here from soup to Friday's fish are great. The servers are always super attentive and go out of their way to make you happy...this includes one waitress bringing me a little sample of the two soups I couldn't choose between! So nice. They have a decent selection of your typical bar food but yet the taste and service make it anything but typical! read more

We wanted a classic Wisconsin Friday night fish fry, and the River Street Pier delivered! The perch platter was perfect, and the tap beer was excellent. read more

I just cannot believe I have lived in Howard my entire life and never have been here. It was outstandingly good. They had Keweenaw red on tap which started the meal off right on Saturday night. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and onion rings as a side. The burger was juicy and really large. Topped with crispy bacon and creamy cheese. The onion rings were for sure hand battered and fried to perfection. Everyone else's food look really good too. Seating is limited but if you are looking for a friendly place to get 5/5 food and service stop in. read more

A cute "hole in the wall" restaurant with amazing food! I got a burger which tasted grilled and my friend got the smelt which was delicious as well. read more

Great spot visited often by locals. They do a big take out business but never at the expense of in house patrons. Small dining area, but they provide fast, friendly, and efficient service. Currently open only Wednesday and Friday due to staffing issues, but we try to go 2-3 times per month because their fish is excellent. Wife loves the Perch, me, I'm a bluegills guy and they are great! Also tried the Walleye and my Mom says the cod was very good! They have other choices as well. On my list of "to try" burger places as well. Owners are on site and very friendly. read more

Awesome place to grab some fish'! Best fish fry in town in my opinion. Great portions and available for take out. Building and seating are very limited so if you plan on dining in get there early! read more

one of my favorite "hole in the wall" places. It's pretty typical bar food - burgers & fries, various deep-fried things, sandwiches.. They make a nice burer - that's what I usually get.They make homemade potato chips that are awesome, too! If you go on Friday, try the clam chowder - it's one of my favorites in the city.. I've never had anything bad at RSP, some things are really excellent. Not to take away from the food, but the thing I like is the atmosphere. It's a tiny place with lots of regulars, friendly bartenders, and a really unique look - It's one of those places that's not "just like every other restaurant".. read more

Hidden gem! Small place with a great, friendly staff! One of my favorite burgers in the Green Bay area. Best onion rings in town. Haven't had the fish but have great reviews on that as well! Wednesday nights they have smelt, which you don't see anymore read more

Looking for the best bratwurst in Green Bay, found this gem!! Not the traditional bratwurst but a patty, very tasty. But you have to try the onion rings!!' They were the best we've had in a long time. Breading was not the crunchy bread coating but a smooth coating that stayed put and the onions were sweet!! Order the large. read more

Quaint little "tavern" with very lightly battered and flavorful fish fries. Drinks are always cold

Perch was not that great. It was greasy. The amount I paid didn't reflect the price. $19.95 for a large and $16.95 for a small doesn't come to $40.30 even after tax. Won't be going here again! read more

Best fish fry I've had in a long long time. Cod was crispy and delicious. Cole Slaw was phenomenal!!

We have been quite a few times in the past year, and I still cannot believe i didn't know about this place as I grew up in Howard. Amazing burgers, best onion rings in Green Bay, their sandwiches are all excellent and they do a great Friday fish fry! This is an amazing local bar that is worth coming to for lunch or dinner. read more

We were in Green Bay for a hockey tournament and wanted to have Walleye for dinner after the game. We searched Yelp and after reading the many positive reviews decided to give this place a try. The place was jammed and there was a bit of a wait but well worth it. The staff and food was great. read more

Little place, next to the concert venue. Serves great perch. Even tried out their craft beers , white Belgium. Smooth. The place gets packed in a Friday night. So I sneaked in on a spot in the bar area. Great concert pregame! read more
