River House is downtown on River Street directly across from the Savannah River.It’s in an old revitalized building that has been part of Savannah Historic District for ages.The food was good but not amazing; we had a fried shrimp plate and the Grouper with crab, mash potatoes, and asparagus.We also had the crab claw scampi dish.Unfortunately, we sent back because they were not fresh; the claws were hard and chewy.Perhaps a seasonal variety.The wine list was excellent with many choices.Overall, the experience was good but the price for 4 people would rival a high-end steak house.Would we return? It would be tough with so many other spots near to try without white table clothes and horrible parking.

The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was attentive and friendly. Fried Green Tomatoes: A standout dish! Perfectly crispy on the outside while maintaining a juicy and tangy interior.The accompanying sauce added a delightful kick, making it an absolute must-try. Catfish: Cooked to perfection, the catfish was tender and flavorful.The seasoning was just right, and it paired wonderfully with the side of hush puppies and coleslaw.A true Southern classic done right. French Onion Soup: Rich and savory, the French onion soup was a comforting bowl of goodness.The caramelized onions and melted cheese atop a slice of toasted bread created a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Lobster and Crab: An indulgent treat! The lobster and crab were fresh and succulent, served with a delicious garlic butter sauce that enhanced the natural sweetness of the seafood.It was a luxurious dish that left us craving more. Desserts: Make sure to leave room for dessert! We tried the peach cobbler and the white chocolate coconut pie.The peach cobbler was warm and comforting, with a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors.The white chocolate coconut pie was a delightful surprise, rich and creamy with a satisfying crunch from the coconut flakes.
