Our family of 6 had a late sunday afternoon lunch and were able to get seated right away. our server (haley?) was great! she was very attentive despite having a full section of tables. she kept our drinks topped off and checked on us frequently. the food was delicious and cooked just right. flavor on the steaks, salmon, and shrimp was great! it had been a long time since we had visited a longhorn, but it wont be a long time before we visit again! great job to the staff and kitchen crew for an excellent experience! see you again soon!!

I had a dinner date with my boyfriend last thursday. every time we try to make a reservation, they re always full. it s a small place, so having a reservation is highly recommended. our server (forgot her name) gave us excellent service! she was welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. the food was great, from appetizers to dessert. my boyfriend ordered the elk loin. it was tender and tasty. i ordered the salmon, and it was great! the portion of salmon was decent, but maybe they should add more on the side. but other than that, i still enjoyed it and cleared my plate. they were also doing a table-side dessert, which was the banana foster. it was very entertaining to watch, and the taste? heaven!! place and service 10/10.

One review mentioned:
We had the best dinner here last week! top notch service from teddy (and team) and amazing food. we love good food and nice restaurants but sometimes at higher-end restaurants, there can be a stuffy atmosphere, and at the river house, we didn t get that vibe at all which was so nice! if the wagyu oysters are still on special when you go, they were incredible and we aren t even oyster fans usually. other favorites were the strawberry burrata salad (wow), the new zealand venison and the side of mushrooms. the warm chocolate cake at the end was also amazing! this is a great spot for a celebratory dinner or just a fun date night! the views are beautiful as well!

The pearl kitchen & bar was a very enjoyable experience for me. i was visiting on an event tour with my marriott vacation club timeshare and the food smelled delicious before was even entered the establishment. our group had a private room upstairs that i found to be nice. we went through the kitchen and climbed the stairs to the private dining area. the 2 dedicated hostesses were polite and prompt. there were both white and red wine offerings. what stole the show for me was the food. the she crab bisque was very flavorful, the red fish was well seasoned and oh my that caramel cheese cake yum! unika b. & co.

I had been here before, but never for brunch, so me and my boyfriend decided to try it out. we had a reservation and booked the one upstairs. i love the interior of the place! the food, as usual, was fantastic! i loved the chicken and waffle, apple salad, and cinnamon roll. the waffle wasnt that thick and not overwhelming, which was nice, and the syrup has this interesting flavor. the apple salad was refreshing, and the dressing was delicious! apples were crispy! the cinnamon roll had the right sweetness to it. everything was fresh and flavorful. we enjoyed everything. the service was great as well. the farm never disappoints us! we will always recommend this place!

When you walk in you choose your own table thats available. there service was great and the food was good. i hoped the half dozen oysters on the half shell would be briny, unfortunately they were more on the water taste side from being iced. the she crab soup was delicious, and my daughter said the snow crab legs were some of the best shes had in a long time. i had a shrimp basket with french fries. all were cooked to perfection. the oysters were the only thing holding them to a 4 star rating on the food. the oysters and crab legs are listed as market price. please give them a try. parking: the parking around lunchtime can be hard to find. we parked down the block and walked to the restaurant.

One review mentioned:
The canoe club has a very creative seasonal menu featuring many fresh fares from the local seafood selection. the roasted oyster appetizer was particularly good, as was the black grouper. the desert menu was limited, and some of the food was overly creative to its own detriment, where it looked amazing, but the flavor didnt match the visual appeal. vegetarian options: entire vegan dishes offered that were creative and delicious parking: easy access adjacent to the venue for golf carts and vehicles curbside and an open lot across the street. kid-friendliness: kids menu available

This was the first time we came to the restaurant. the atmosphere was nice, and the restaurant was uniquely decorated. the waitress was very nice. we ordered the grilled calamari, and it was different but delicious. i had the drunken noodles with chicken. they were good, but not as spicy as expected for medium. the waitress provided a plate with additional hot sauces to make it as spicy as we wanted. overall, it was a very good experience. we will be back to try something different from their menu!
