Sets the bar quite high
The food prepared in Riverhorse is made with passion and cooked with love. We had a very large party and the food was served at the right time and at the right temperature and the place was completely full. I was surprised with the quality of ingredients used and the bold flavors. A must visit.

Anniversary Celebration
This is and has been my go-to celebration dinner spot! I almost always order their macadamia crusted halibut as it is a staple on their menu, so many others besides me love it so much! They often have relaxing live music, service is excellent, and I can honestly say that when ever we bring guests, everyone is delighted with their meals, regardless of what they chose from the menu. Always look forward to returning!
