Riverhouse Inn

I had never heard of this place before, but it turned out to be a wonderful discovery. We wanted to avoid the crowded spots in Lansing and East Lansing, and this was the perfect choice. The outdoor patio is cute, cozy, and romantic—quiet and relaxing. The cuisine was authentic, homemade, and delicious. The service was excellent and came directly from the owner. We had a great night and are already looking forward to coming back.

Came here for a celebration dinner!! Amazing, cozy, and intimate feel out back on the patio with incredible eats!! It served as the perfect venue for our evening and provided a relaxing and quaint environment to celebrate with loved ones. Not to mention, each and every option we chose from the menu was DELICIOUS and unique.

Our waitress was okay, very quiet. But who I believe was the owner seemed very nice and charming during our first encounter. The burger was delicious, and I loved that they had some high-end whiskeys to taste. The patio setting is gorgeous, with umbrellas that can be angled to block the sun. The seats are very large with big cushions and extremely comfortable. My fiance's salmon was one of the best I've ever had. We cannot wait to go back!

Our server was excellent. The food was good But not any better than you can get at any other similar restaurant. Atmosphere good as well.The issue was the manager. She needs to work on her table side manner. She was quite harsh with us, as well as her staff, ( In front of us.) Beware, there’s no air conditioning inside the inn and limited shade outside. Will not go again.

We dined on the patio this past Saturday evening and had a fantastic experience. Susan, who served as both our server and bartender, was incredible—she prepared some of the best drinks we’ve ever had. Overall, it was a wonderful evening, and I highly recommend dining here.
