Amazing Sunday roast! Only ever been to the River House for drinks outside! Booked very last minute at 1pm for 3pm! Very accommodating, quick service and fabulous food! Especially the gravy! A great set menu price! Will be back

Loved it. Lunch with hubby. The area in which it is situated is great, alongside the river Tawe. Service from Raz, our waiter, was excellent, as was the food. I opted for the 2 course lunch time offer whilst my husband opted for items not included in that but not expensive, and we also had a bottle of wine. Sadly, no room for dessert. Really good and realistically priced. Won't be long before we return.

Food was fantastic. Had then chicken and it was out of the world. Service was very good. When you walk up to the restaurant the smells were beyond welcoming. Would come back any time and order the chicken dish I had any time. So good. Worth a stop and give it a try. This place is worth em anything they say this food they make is worth. Stop here and not be disappointed.

Had a lovely lunch, very tasty and well presented. Would have given 5🌟, but the portions were a bit small. (for a main course three slices of chicken breast, and the cheesecake could have been a bit more). Staff were friendly and helpful.

The River House is located in a really nice area right next to the river, where they seem to be doing some nice development work to make the area more appealing to visit as it is abit outside the main part of the city. There are plenty of places to park, but if it's a busy day or something is on in town, it may be difficult to park. Staff were lovely and professional, checking up on us frequently throughout the meal while also having good knowledge of ingredients that you were being served as part of the meal. Overall food was really nice. The highlight of my meal were the Mussels, which may just be the best Mussels I have had in a long time. They did not skimp on the portion size even for a starter, and they may have been the biggest Mussels I have ever had! Sadly, the Belly Pork put a downer on the meal for me with its rubbery texture and laxi of Veg with old rinkled Roasties. The Belly Pork should be crispy and believe it was sat around a while before being served. The Chocolate Fondant was really tasty with a lovely gooey centre, but I do wish it was a little bigger as I could have had two of them. I would visit again, but I'd probably try something for Sunday Lunch unless they can perfect the Belly Pork.

Booked the day before for our sons birthday meal with a £10/head deposit which is understandable these days. Turned up a few minutes early and we were seated almost right away. The table setting was lovely and although we were away from the window with the views, we were happy and were served our drinks. Although there was a draught Guinness pump on the bar, it wasn't available so made do with a can. Everyone else had what they wanted. The menu is relatively simple but professional and 'fine dining' looking. We ordered three starters to share between five of us and it was sufficient with the delicious garlic bread. I ordered the sirloin steak (photo) and one of my sons ordered the mushroom linguine (photo) whilst two had the burger which they both said was excellent and my wife had the hake dish which she said was delicious. She was particularly happy with the risotto with cockles which came with it. All in all a lovely evening. Not low-cost but certainly worth it for a celebration. Our server (forgot to ask his name) was very professional and always available. Thank you.

Got seated 25 minutes late and served 3 course meal with 1 hour then told they needed table so had 15 minutes left. Even though they came back 3 times to remind us not once did they bring us the bill!? Soon got the bill for us as we got up and started to walk out!

Lovely restaurant with lovely custormer service. It was my first time in a nice restaurant (I didn't know what most of the things in the menu were if I'm honest 😅). Nonetheless the waiters were helpful when I asked about the dishes and reccomendations, I have to add the language skills the gentleman had, pleased to speak in Spanish with someone! Dishes were served on a Sunday: Starter- Calamari Main- Beef Dessert- Chocolate lava cake with vainilla ice cream Would definitely come back, I reccomend!

We had an early evening table of 6 for a works outing. The location is suburb with great views of SA1 from the outdoor seating area. The dining area was also well presented and all the staff were fantastic as we weren't the easiest of tables. The majority of the group were delighted with quality and value of the food, but I have to say the only veggie main of stuffed pepper was a bit bland. Othwise a great night.
