    Meatloaf Melt with "scoop fries" - very good!
    Daniel B.

    Nice stop off on our way home to NJ. Good beer-on-tap selections, great staff, cool vibe throughout, great menu! The meatloaf melt hit the spot on this icy early March afternoon, and the steak tips were great as well. Definitely a favorite spot among locals - the place was packed on an early Sunday afternoon. If we're ever in this area again, we'll be back!

    Umm.. the mermaid theme is very cutesy. They could do a lot more with it to make it appealing to GenZ. I love that you can sit outside and have a view of the dirty smelly river. Truly, chefs kiss. Obviously they cannot control the river but it's nauseating smelling that water while you're trying to eat and then seeing everything that floats by lol. We had front row seats by choice and decided to move rather quickly once we smelled the fishy smell of the river. Like I get the vision, but it's taunton... no way you can have a NICE water view at a restaurant lol. Food was just ok. Drinks were just ok. Wouldn't go back.

    buffalo chicken rangoons

    Party of 3. We came on a Saturday night & had a wait time of about 30 minutes. For appetizers we started with the pretzel charcuterie board (new & delicious!!) buffalo chicken rangoons & a cup of the stuffed pepper soup. The apps were delicious & did not disappoint! For the entree we all opted for the River house pasta caesar salad with grilled chicken, great portion sizes. For Dessert we ordered the make your own smores & chocolate chip cookie skillet both were excellent. The s'mores is great for a group of people! The food was great & so was the service! Our server was friendly & prompt refilling our drinks as needed. Will definitely be back.

    This one was tough... a nice Friday lunch that looked good, great parking and unique menu. We went for the steak tips, fish and chips and buffalo chicken Mac and cheese. The steak was cooked literally perfect. Super tender with an amazing char. The flavor definitely depends on your preference as it has strong pepper flavor. The mashed potatoes were dry and warm/cold when brought out. The fish was fresh and literally just out of the fryer. It was sadly pouring oil still. It definitely could have drained better. The Mac and cheese was good underneath but the top was dry and hard. We tried the dessert. I went with the banana cream pie and was told no because it's "too soupy" so I went with churros which were good. We also went with the chocolate cookie skillet which was under cooked and super soggy. While waiting for dessert the manager comes to the from and starts spraying half a can of the strongest smelling floral febreeze on all the fake trees and plants. This almost caused a migraine for one of us and an asthma attack for another! I've never seen this happen before EVER. When we asked her to stop she asked if we wanted to move and that she couldn't smell anything which was IMPOSSIBLE. That did not affect the score although really weird. The food was hit or miss but for the prices being charged this was a major letdown.

    Love the ambience of this restaurant. Been here twice now. It gets really busy and you can only book reservations for 6+ people so expect a wait unless you arrive early!!! Service is always great and food is really good! I got a burger and everything was perfect!

    I recently went to dinner at Riverhouse with a friend and we couldn't have been happier with the service, food and ambiance. The Mac & Cheese was SO good - highly recommend topping it with buffalo chicken! The outdoor area is adorable. Would recommend this spot, for sure!!

    Pretzel charcuterie
    Kelly C.

    I have been wanting to try the Riverhouse since they opened but never had the opportunity. My friend and I finally decided to give them a try after seeing a post with a pretzel charcuterie board which combined some of our favorite snack items. When arriving I thought the restaurant was nicely decorated, greatly set up and inviting. I loved the nautical mermaid theme. The staff were incredible, super attentive and very helpful with suggestions. Which is why it's hard to make a not so stellar review. I cannot say anything bad about the service or the atmosphere. My complaints are with the food and drinks. We enjoyed the appetizer but it was standard Sysco delivered product, heated and served which included pre-cut cubed cheese, frozen soft pretzel, meat, dill pickles, jarred queso, yellow mustard and spicy mustard. Nothing you couldn't find at a grocery store to make yourself and nothing of restaurant quality to warrant the price we paid for it. We also decided to get margarita flights which they are known for. I love a good margarita so I was looking forward to trying the different flavors. I was surprised when they arrived the color was pale and lacking. You couldn't even distinguish which was which except for the traditional which looked like water. I ordered original, watermelon, blood orange and blackberry. So I was expecting the glasses to look yellow, orange, bright pink & purple (wine color). They all looked baby pink and tasted nothing like the fruits mentioned above. I actually told my friend they all taste like Robetussin cough syrup. Then for our meal, I order the meatloaf sandwich that came with fries. It was simply lacking all flavor, mushy and not good. We decided to treat ourselves with dessert so I saved room and only ate half of my meal. We both ordered the special dessert of the night which was crème brûlée cheese cake. It was totally not what I expected. I truly thought the cheese cake was going to have a crunchy top brûléed shell. Instead it was a slice of frozen cheese cake where the kitchen just torched and burned the top. I didn't even finish it. This place has great potential but needs to rework their menu with a good chef and mixologist. I really wanted to like this place but until something changes, I will not be returning.

    Really fun and entertaining dinner experience night out at Post 1917 in Reading AKA Jason Carron…read more Great for date nights. Atmosphere/Decor: Really interesting and unique interior formerly a Post Office (hence the name) with exposed brick, a tall windows, and a very long three-sided bar that makes up most of the restaurant. Very happening and social scene. Most folks dressed business casual and to impress. Lots of birthdays, regulars, and lookers. Big glam meets classic steakhouse hybrid vibes. We sat at a booth behind the bar and were initially concerned about placement but glad for the happening scene afterwards. The legroom was fairly tight for the taller folks. The booth was a little tight with space for all our food and drinks (e.g., four people, four cocktails, four waters, three appetizers was tight). Service: Very attentive. We had great servers, very attentive, fun, offered helpful insights and thoughts, and took great care of us ala traditional steakhouse norms. No delays. No complaints. Food: We really enjoyed our meal. The appetizers were fun. The restaurant is gluten free in homage to one of the owners(?) kids who's found it hard to eat out. You probably wouldn't notice that it's gluten free, as whatever almond/corn/rice flour they're using closely mimics mouth feel and taste. We were a little surprised the lamb app was (gluten-free) breaded but very moist and flavorful. Our steaks were all very good. I had the ribeye and it was a nice cut, aged (23-30 days?), and cooked exactly as desired. Cauliflower was decent and voluminous but not amazing. Wedge decent. Filets good. The chicken parm sounded very intriguing -- different than the usual fare and apparently one of their most popular dishes and huge but we will save it for next time. Fun desert options. Drinks: Great dirty martini. Fun cocktails for the table -- some great some just good. All boozy. The Whistle Pig tasting desert option was a a great value even if just for the 12 year XII at that price. They have a few rare allocated bourbons and whiskeys. Price: A much better deal than Boston steakhouses in general. This would have been twice the price if downtown there, and they're clearly enticing folks to make the drive. I think it's well worth it.
