    Scott was terrific. We had the she crab soup, oysters on the half shell, lobster rolls and grouper. We were very happy with what we had.

    There was a line when we got there but with reservations, we were seated almost immediately. They were out of somethings on the menu and our waitress told us after introducing herself. We started with Escargot, and a wedge salad, both very good. Filet, one of the steak specials, and lobster rolls were ordered and all were excellent. Steak was cooked to perfection and portions were plentiful. Our waitress was attentive so all in all, a nice experience for a first time visit.

    Exquisite southern classic dishes and service. Shrimp and grits flavorful and not heavy, she crab soup a must. Pecan pie was a burst of flavor too. Waiter and staff were attentive and friendly, very impressive. Best in Charlseton!

    Seafood good. Steaks poor (over cooked, then under cooked). Wait staff inattentive. Side note - we marked in our reservation this was our anniversary dinner. Staff made no note of this, not even well wishes. This is the opposite of what we’ve experienced with special occasion reservations through Open Table.
    River House SeafoodResponded 4 days ago
    Thank you for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the seafood, but we sincerely apologize for the issues with the steaks and inattentive service. Most importantly, we're sorry your anniversary wasn't acknowledged, your special occasion should have been celebrated, and we clearly missed the mark. We’ll be reviewing this with our team to ensure better attention to detail in the future. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to make it right.
