My date had never had raw oysters....he loved them! Nate took great care of us at the bar. The clams were steamed perfectly and in an awesome garlic butter sauce...absolutely perfect. I’m from the Chesapeake Bay Area and I know oysters...these were fresh and good quality! Shelley is awesome too, this place has excellent service and live music! What more can you ask for?

Five of us met at Riverhouse this past Sunday for brunch and to catch up after many years. The restaurant’s setting is very pretty with lovely water views. It is set back in the marina, but if you aren’t able to walk the distance they have a shuttle. The restaurant itself is bright and attractive. The Sunday brunch menu of breakfast items, is in addition to their full lunch menu, so there are many choices for every taste. Everyone in our party enjoyed their selections which included the Eggs Benedict, lobster mac and cheese, huevos rancheros, and shrimp and grits. The wait staff was very friendly and efficient, and allowed us to linger as long as we wanted without rushing us a bit. Thank you for joining us and sharing this awesome review with us! We're so excited you tried our brand new brunch menu and enjoyed your dishes along with some of our other popular dishes from our regular menu. Looking forward to having you back and thanks again for sharing!

Reviewed By Sandtravlr

This restaurant was described as Casual, Upscale Dining. It is definitely worth the extra cost. We had a fantastic dinner overlooking the water. The service was perfect and the food delicious. The menu was large and varied. We started with Pumpkin Colada, which is a fall specialty. It was absolutely delicious. We felt we were having dessert first. We decided to order from the appetizer menu. I had Crab Artichoke Spring Rolls. Very unusual and delicious! We both had lamb lollipops. They were coated with bread crumbs and served with delicious mint sauce. This restaurant is a must when visiting the Bradenton area.

Reviewed By Y2845EQeddiec

After try to park the car, very hard, by the time you walking to the door the hostess was on cell phone testing,We are still walking to outside, we just sit down the waitress came and ask, are you Guys are ready to order, Reply good afternoon, he walks away, back again with the same attitude.My attitude was looking the way she walks and talks and I see o her a something I did not get it, Well as a probation officer in my company, he told me she was being monitored 24/7.Well she not give to us the hello or welcome, After all she took the order, but bring everything at same time, we are enjoying, guess what she bring over the bill without ask if the food was good, we did not eat the final appetizers because was off corse cold and melted on grease.No dispute on the house for that mistake, but warm beer on plastic cup, first order and second at same time, not worth to came back, plus the limited parking.At next door, they are busy with parking, but we prefer go back to Marco Island over there, no service like that, Unfortunately we drive to remember how Sarasota and Bradenton was on 1990'sMixed and Match is not our good rememberfor coming back.

Full Belly Stuffed Burgers

Reviewed By jimcooch1959

Where ever I go I end up googling “burger near me” then selecting some place I’ve never tried. That’s how I found Full Belly. Smaller selection of burgers than anticipated tho the Cowabunga burger on the specials caught my eye. The sweet potato tots seemed a bit over processed but were ok. Local sodas are featured. Tables are a bit small but did the job and there isn’t much indoor seating so I imagine it can get packed we were early so it was a non issue. The gimmick here is the cheese and some items are stuffed inside the burger. The burgers were decent but not that impressive. The staff are very friendly and on top of things and it was priced accordingly. It was a good lunch experience. I think for dinner I’d expect a bit more. I’d definitely go back if in the area.

We too were so impressed with Drew's service, it made the meal so enjoyable. My husband thought his burger was perfection. My lamb greek salad was missing a couple of items but Drew and the manager sure took care of that. The setting is also very nice but the reason we'll be back for sure is the service.John,Thank you so much for coming in to see us at Mattison's. I am glad that Drew did an excellent job for you and was able to correct the mistake from the kitchen. I look forward to seeing you again soon.Chef Paul Mattison, OwnerLiz Fridenberg, General Manager

Reviewed By kaye f

Love this Bar! Waitress was great ( Hannah) Beer was great. ( I don't do their wine because if the plastic glasses.) I had the fish tacos. They were good ...But... You get about a .5 oz of fish per taco!! Not kidding!!Really, seems like for $9.50 you should get a LOT more! Other annoying factor was group of 20-30 year olds vaping. Hiding it ( they thought)... But blowing out smoke... and passing it to each other and trying to act like they weren't....... so rude in a restaurant where others are eating. Two other couples on outside perimeter were smoking too! The guy with the beard should be more diligent about this. I'd bet he is a smoker. If this is a continuous problem, we will stop coming here. Even tho it is a great Bradenton lunch and dinner place. We always bring out of town company here!
