Amazing time we spend at Brielle river house. We went there for dinner for my boyfriends birthday. The service was excellent and the cocktails were delicious, and I definitely recommend the lobster rolls. The views definitely added to the experience as well :). All in all We’ll definitely go back. Thank you Brielle

Last night was my third visit in the last two years to The River House. Consistently great food, wonderful views of the water, nice attentive staff and just an overall nice dining experience. Free valet parking makes it easier to get in an out of the place. We were inside because it was raining but they also have an open deck with some cover. Just a nice night out.

The Brielle River House is the best spot I've been to in the Brielle/Pt. Pleasant area. This place has an incredible outside patio area and bar. The water views are great! The new owners remodeled the inside dining area and it looks outstanding. I love the new food and drink menu too!

We've been to the River House several times since they reopened last month, every time it was fantastic!! The oysters and lobster rolls are awesome....you can't beat great food, great drinks while enjoying the best water views in Monmouth County!! Very much looking forward to them completing the renovations and expanding their menu. In the mean time we'll continue to enjoy everything this restaurant has to offer.

The thunderstorm kept most people away so we had the outside bar all to ouselves. (The bar itself is covered.) The view of the bay is fantastic, especially when the lightning strikes. This place is nice; you can tell it's kept up well, and has a very large outdoor patio right on the water. The food was good too. We really enjoyed the chicken sandwich with peppers.

The food is great along with the staff. Outdoor seating area and bar has a fantastic view. I can't wait til next summer cause we will definitely be back. The hoodies they sell are really comfortable. Happy to call this my "go to place" for the summer. Great times.

Went for lunch. We both had lobster rolls with salad. Lobster rolls were incredible, full of lobster meat with a delicious lemon mayonnaise dressing. Best ever but pricey at 22 each; however, it was worth the cost. Service was very good and of course the view is beautiful with Manasquan river in front of you.

Under this new ownership, the food is much better! I had the scallops and my husband & mother had the salmon - both were excellent. We’ve been coming here for years and are excited about the expansion plans and keeping it Open year round. Smart idea especially because Riverhouse corners the market on views. Live music is a huge draw as well.
