    Very nice ambiance. We loved the piano player. One of the few places in Nashville with Beef Wellington, which was delicious. We had a nice time and I would return.

    The River House is consistently outstanding. The Dover Sole and Crab cakes were perfectly seasoned and prepared. The Brussel sprouts and creamed spinach were also excellent. Service was top-notch!

    We have a fantastic experience at the River House. Great ambiance with a piano player and just a beautiful setting. The food was absolutely fantastic. We had the Dover sole, the sea bass, the snapper and the Hemingway. All were wonderful. We got the corn and Brussels for our sides to share and loved them all. Great experience, great service and fantastic food. Can’t wait to go back and try more of the entrees!!
