Ok food although the crazy tuna next door has better food! They do have good bands every weekend but the place is run down. Needs a complete upgrade. Inside is like an 80’s dungeon and bathrooms are disgusting! One of the bathroom stalls has been out of order the entire summer! The male owner is nice but his wife/hostess not so much. We gave her our name and number for a reservation and we never got a call and she took several people in front of us so we just went next door. Again The bands are the only thing keeping them afloat! With the amount of money they’re bringing in they should be able to do a complete upgrade!
Fantastic food! There was a bit of a wait, but we went to the bar and it was less time than they predicted. The service was excellent and the staff was super friendly. Great drinks as well!
This was our first time at River Watch Restaurant. We sat outside, ate, drank and watched the band Expensive Hobby perform for 4 hours. Overall really enjoyed our experience at this venue and will likely return in the future for other events.
