We were there on a business trip for my husband's company and was so pleased to grab the reservation. Our server Laurie was amazing!! She was so friendly, helped us decide on the best dishes and we loved every minute of our time there and as we stayed at the Jefferson. We can't wait to come back in November!

After reading recent (critical) reviews, I was concerned that quality of food and service had declined from pre-Covid when I regularly visited Boathouse for business and pleasure. I’m pleased to report it exceeded all expectations, both with delicious food and exemplary service. When we asked to “sample” several wines before settling on a bottle one of the managers personally brought a recommended bottle to our table to ensure we were pleased. Our out of town guests were impressed with the unparalleled view of the river, as expected, but the high quality of our entire experience will guarantee a return soon.

The food was really great. My husband, who is a foodie, loved the Crispy Barbacoa Tacos. The margaritas were yummy also.

Celebration for our move to RVA. The food was great, Brooke was awesome and sweet. Great Decor and a vibrant crowd. The menu is not large but it is innovative, the seafood so fresh and delicious. Nice wine list. We will return again.

I was able to get a late reservation for wife's birthday. We went last year with our two adult children. Next year will need to call a couple of weeks sooner! Just a perfect dinner and experience.
