Great place to eat some seafood along the water. They also have burgers, other country cooking, and cocktails available as well. Fried seafood was delicious and freshly made. Seating available inside and outside. They also have things to keep the kids busy like arcade games and pool tables. Was not a fan of the chips and salsa, but no biggie.

In town for work and this place has a great atmosphere and very welcoming staff, they are very friendly and inviting. I got the steak and it was perfect. Had a four legged guy accompany me for dinner and couldn’t beat it. The view and live music was a great bonus! If you’re looking for a quite good place for dinner, drinks or both I recommend!

Great little hidden gem! Food and drinks were great. CiCi made us feel very welcomed. Bring your reels if you like to fish because there’s a fishing area just feet from the restaurant. After fishing, grab something to drink and eat and relax on the patio or play some pool. We will definitely be back.

We went for the 1st time, waitress was really nice help us with the menu. Food was really good. We had the shrimp boil and steak bites, sides we really good mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese and coleslaw. Except the corn was a bit over cooked for mi liking.

We always have an amazing time here. Laurissa was our server both times and not only is the service great, food, cost, ambience is also really good. I enjoy the games inside just as much as the food. The drinks are well made and is better than most upscale restaurants in downtown Houston.
The location is an easy drive from downtown Houston and they have plenty of parking as well.

I’ve been there several times for lunch, the Cobb salad is a huge serving. I’ve gotten it with grilled chicken, fried chicken and even shrimp. I’ve also been there when they have the McGee’s playing an acoustic set. Great vibes! Wait staff is excellent as well and so is the manager Victoria. My to go to spot during the week and weekends.

1st time visit yesterday evening. Fantastic experience. My daughter and I arrived by water. Plenty of pier accommodations to tie off your vessel (They even have a ramp). I ordered a burger and onion rings. It was really good. My daughter ordered sirloin steak, mashed potatoes and fried okra. Steak was ordered medium rare and was cooked perfectly! Sweet tea was tops! They had a 1 man band on a peddled acoustic guitar providing great entertainment taking requests. I loved their elevated backyard deck seating. We had a great time. Server was not as attentive as I would like. Most important thing that I will be returning for is the food quality. Excellent food and generous portions. Just wow, how have I never been here before?
We have returned for a 2nd and 3rd visit since this review. 2nd time, we sat at our table 15 minutes and did not get a server. Time was too tight for slow service. We left hungry and thirsty. Our 3rd visit, again slow service. Took 8 minutes to get a menu and 15 to get drinks. Seeing how this was going, I prepaid the bill so I could leave on time when I needed to and I was glad I did. We had a secondary waitress help close me out since my primary waitress did not visit our table frequently. Secondary waitress was so friendly. She refilled our empty cups with a smile in the absence of our primary waitress and closed our check with a handheld POS.
I still think this place is wonderful. I have just learned that this is not the place to go if you are in a time crunch.
Maybe I’ll call ahead my order next time while in route if I am pressed for time.
Final Update: Yes, yes. I keep coming back here for the great food, great atmosphere and riverside docking accommodations. I love it here. Today, I brought a 1st timer guest with me and we met our server Ryan. Super friendly guy and in conversation I found out that he was aware of this review. He was clearly up to the challenge to change my opinion of their subpar service. He knocked it out of the park today. What an asset he is to this business! Redemption is a beautiful thing, fine sir! Thank you! You made our evening!
The GM of the restaurant, Sherry, (please pardon the spelling if wrong), came over and acknowledged this review, introduced herself and offered to help, and said if we needed anything to let her know. It was a quick and pleasant interaction and she checked on us multiple times and made sure everything was perfect for us.
We enjoyed the live band, had phenomenal service and ate like kings with 2 orders of blackened pork chops (hats off to the kitchen staff yet again, y’all are flawless every single time we come). Can’t wait to come back again!

Stopped at this place on our way to Galveston. Off the beaten path but well worth the stop! Our server, Ryan, was absolutely phenomenal. He went above and beyond. It’s been so hard to find good service since Covid but not here. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Beautiful views, fun music, delicious food, friendly staff. We will be back again!

Kassie is the best! Everyone that works there is great but we are always happy when Kassie is there! The food is great. All of the seafood is prepared very well. Among our favorites are the steak bites, shrimp and grits, fried pickles, fried mushrooms, grilled chicken and the green beans! Everything is always hot and fresh. Their drinks always hit just right! When you go try the Hello Kitty. Don’t let the name or the fact that it’s pink deter you. Just order it ! I promise you won’t be sorry. We are there at least twice a week now and don’t even feel guilty about!!!

Riverside Restaurant was an amazing dining experience! The seafood was absolutely incredible — fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Every bite tasted like top quality and care went into the meal.
What really made the evening even better was the outstanding service from Larissa. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Her positive attitude and great recommendations truly elevated our visit.
