Just had one of, if not the best, piece of tuna I have ever had. It could have not been any more tender or sweet. The portion was way larger than I expected and I certainly left full and happy. If you want fresh local seafood at a great price then look no farther than Riverside!!
Cosmo was the perfect color, barely pink. Start with crab dip. Dip portion is large, cut bread in half and pile high. Or eat the remaining dip with a spoon like I did. Just too good to waste. Lobster ravioli good choice. Crab cakes heavier on the breading than to my liking. Friendly service, though service a bit slow.
We recently had a dinner for 20 guests. I can't rave about Riverside enough. First, the service was out of this world good. They serviced our group with the same attention as if it were just a couple of us. Next, the FOOD, WOW! All of our guests had nothing but positive things to say. I personally had a filet that melted in my mouth. The Oyster appetizer was also amazing! Many of our guests had Grouper and other seafood dishes. EVERYONE raved. I would highly recommend Riverside!
Year after year Riverside consistently delivers well made, incredibly delicious fresh food as well as great service! They have the best she crab soup my family and I have EVER tasted (and we’ve had many)! We make a few trips to Riverside each time we come to EI, and this has been going on for over 15 yrs.
The scallop nachos are one of our must-have starters. The sweet potato muffins are super delicious too!—nice that one always accompanies a dinner salad! FYI, order the ranch dressing as it is outstanding as well. The fried shrimp are my favorite. They are very lightly battered and perfect! I love to dip them in both of their excellent, house-made sauces—cocktail & tartar!
There are so many other wonderful food items at Riverside and not just seafood. You’ll have to just go and see & taste for yourself.
I love seeing one of the owners, John, walk around and check on guests, it’s real and sincere and it personalizes the whole experience. I hope to be visiting Riverside for many more years to come.
