My husband and I are visiting from out of town. The atmosphere was really nice and our hostesses were very accommodating with our reservation. We had the delight of having Emma as our waitress and she was a doll. She was very accommodating. we were inside during happy hour, and I asked her if we could move our table outside, even though it was a little chilly and she made it a smooth transition, and we kept her as our waitress out there because she was so sweet and kind. The food was really good as well and everything was delicious. Would definitely go back!
Badhan was great. I came with my parents visiting from Illinois for a cross country meet. He was super welcoming and made great conversation with us. He gave us great recommendations and we were very happy with our food. I got the lobster stuffed flounder and it was spectacular. 100% recommend here if you’re visiting around the Richmond area!
Gorgeous view of the James River and Richmond skyline. Food was delicious and our server Veronica was very attentive. We sat outside and were able to bring our small dog.
We celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary at the Rockett's Landing location of The Boathouse! Badhn was our server. Very friendly & was a great help in helping us pick out our drinks & entrees. We started with drinks. I had the Plum Cosmo & my husband had a Guiness. We ordered the focacci bread, which came with a very tasty dipoing oil and a seeded butter. We both had the seared salmon on butternut squash risotto, with roasted Brussel sprouts, oyster mushrooms & caramelized onions! SO GOOD! We ended with the apple crisp (him) and creme Brule. Since we were celebrating our anniversary, they also brought out another dessert with a candle in it. I believe that dessert was the chocolate chip cookie and ice cream that they offer on the menu. I think they call it the zookie! The river view & downtown view of Richmond were great. Really enjoyed ourselves.
I went to the rockets landing location for a birthday brunch this past week and it was great! The server CeeCee was great! She was very friendly and very accommodating to the table! We started with the special which was a sweet and savory fried pickle. It was the best fried pickles I’ve ever had. I went on to have biscuit and gravy and a Bloody Mary and both were delicious! The food there is good and the views are even better!
Very pretty location overlooking the river. Was surprised to see how empty it was at 1000 on Sunday since they do a nice brunch menu. The shrimp and grits were excellent, definitely recommend. Parking was easy on the street and there is also a free lot nearby. Outside seating was very pleasant with a nice breeze and direct view of the boats going by. Very peaceful.
Came in durning happy hour and everything was good! Robert was my server would definitely come back and request to sit with him! Very friendly and kept us up to date on the status of our food the entire time.
I recently had the pleasure of being served by Michelle, and I must say, she truly sets the gold standard for exceptional service. From the moment we were seated, Michelle’s warm and welcoming demeanor made us feel right at home. Her attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm for her work were evident throughout our dining experience. Michelle was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, providing insightful recommendations that perfectly matched our preferences. Her ability to anticipate our needs without being intrusive was impressive, ensuring our glasses were always filled and that we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. What stood out most was Michelle’s friendly and personable nature. She engaged us in delightful conversation and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Her professionalism, combined with her vibrant personality, created an atmosphere of comfort and enjoyment. Overall, Michelle’s exceptional service elevated our dining experience to a new level. I wanted to do something special for my girlfriend and she delivered with no hesitation! She was amazing and we look forward to being served by her again. If you’re lucky enough to have Michelle as your server, you’re in for a treat!
Great food. Chris was our server, very nice.
Badhan was absolutely amazing. He was super friendly and helpful with meal suggestions as this was my friends first time. The food was great and the low lighting made for a great birthday celebration! We will be back!
Badhan was great!!! Wonderful service and made dinner amazing!!!
What amazing place to stop at for lunch. Fish and chips, shrimp and grits and salads. Elegant and historic place. Highly recommended!! Thank you Thomas, you are very sweet and professional.
We have dined at the Boathouse over the years and today we had lunch with some family & friends. Today the food and service was far superior than our past visits. Brianne was a perfect server!!
Food was perfectly good and delicious! Bar tender Asya was dope with a great vibe
Amazing service and great food. We did not have a reservation so we sat at the bar and glad we did! Asya was our bartender and was super tentative the entire time while working with other guests.
I recently visited The Boathouse and had an amazing dining experience, thanks to both the incredible food and our outstanding server, Badhan. I ordered the ribeye steak, and it was nothing short of perfection. Cooked to my exact specifications, it was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The seasoning was spot on, and the steak had a delightful char on the outside that elevated every bite. Badhan truly made the experience memorable. From the moment we were seated, he was attentive, friendly, and professional. He checked in just the right amount and ensured everything was perfect throughout the meal. His recommendations were spot on, and his warm demeanor added a personal touch to the evening. If you re heading to The Boathouse, I highly recommend the ribeye steak and if you re lucky enough to have Badhan as your server, you re in for an exceptional dining experience!
Asya was amazing! Very personable and made our dinner experience that much better.
I loved the vibes here. Asya is the best!
staff was very sweet and nice! had a great time at the bar thanks to Asya she was very helpful!!
Took my girlfriend on a romantic date here, our server was great, gave him a $50 tip. Food was amazing, I loved the NY strip, and the mashed potatoes were just perfect. Overall great place to eat. 10/10. Vegetarian options: Wide Range ove vegetarian options Parking: Valet Parking was a very nice experience. Wheelchair accessibility: Elevators are available, as well as ramps.
Food was delicious
We had a big group and they were very accommodating. Great atmosphere and great service! Food was very tasty, but servings were pretty small. Food
food was great and our server Thomas was amazing.
We loved Badhan! He was the best ever!
First time at The Boathouse, and it was a lovely experience. The staff was very attentive, conversational, and kind. We were seated quickly and regularly checked in on by our waiter, Sam. He ensured our needs were tended to and was a warm presence at the table. The food was delicious, hot, and beautifully prepared.
Thomas took great care of us! The food was great as well
Went there after reading the reviews. Fell sick with stomachache and food poisoning after eating there. Maybe it was a one off, but it just left a bad taste.
Come here and ask for Sam. He did everything and beyond. Chill guy
Sam was great, it was my birthday and he was super nice snd always made sure my drink was full :)
Atmosphere was amazing. Valet parking was very quick. Our server Badhan was very professional and on point. Food was good, nice, tight selection of food and deserts.
Sam was a great server!
Great food, great service, overall great experience!!
Cris was an amazing server, very polite and had good energy , the food was amazing and the customer service was a 10/10 I recommend asking for the waiter Cris if you come here ! He was truly one of the best waitresses me and my friends had ever had !
I have always liked The Boathouse, but tonight was different. Unfortunately, our experience was soured by the waiter, who was rude and curt with our table the entire evening. As a paying customer, I expect to be treated with respect, and this level of service was disappointing. It s disheartening when great food and ambiance are overshadowed by poor customer service. I hope this was an isolated incident, as I ve always enjoyed dining here in the past.
Chris took wonderful care of us the entire experience!!!
My daughter took me here for my 50th Birthday. Both of our first time, somewhere I ve been wanting to visit for a fine dining experience. The food was amazing and would have been even more flavorful is it was hot and not lukewarm. I believe the server Chris must been new and made it very horrible not using time wisely to bring our food out.The complimentary dessert had to be taken home in bag because we sat for almost 20mins. Get all the way home to what looks like Raw cookie dough cooked by the heat lamp. I m behind pissed I couldn t get that cute birthday dessert picture for my 50th. Ms.Brandy thank you for trying to turn it around.
Thomas went above and beyond! He offered to take our picture outside by the sunset, and was extra cautious when handling allergies. Thank you Thomas for making our dinner extra special tonight!
Lucy was amazing! Food was delicious! Love sitting by the fire and watching the boats on the canal.
Great food Great service!! Thomas was an amazing server definitely will be back
Our waiter, Badha, was tremendous. He was very patient and attentive. Outstanding young gentleman and a great ambassador for your restaurant
Badhan was great
Thomas was awesome!
I had a great experience. I recommended Dante as the waiter!
Good, service, and atmosphere was 10/10! I didn t realize there was such a nice restaurant by the river in Richmond and was a wonderful surprise! Our server, Sam, was very attentive and helpful and gave us great recommendations. A overall wonderful experience!
Great night out with friends. Sam was wonderful and was not lying about the Bread Pudding!
Sam was great!
The food was great, and Sam was a delight. He made the experience very enjoyable
Had an amazing time! Sam was great and so incredibly kind!
Food and cocktails were delicious! Sam was an incredible waiter and was very attentive to our party. Will be back.
The food was exceptional, especially the fish and chips. The fish was cooked to perfection, with a crunchy exterior and fried to perfection. Also the grilled asparagus was cooked just right (it still had that snap). Sam the server was helpful and kind.
Slow food service, Food was cold, and small portion for the price. Ambience, decor was nice. Valet attendant was courteous and attentive. The drinks were watery.

Sam is my hero
Fabulous Thanksgiving experience! The Boathouse setting was beautiful with the sun setting behind our table. The buffet was plentiful, so much to choose from and all of it delicious. Our server Sam took great care of us. It was the perfect evening.
Asya was amazing and may my holiday season great
Asya was a great server and added to our Thanksgivings!!!!!
Sam rocked the bells!
Just finished a wonderful Thanksgiving meal with loved ones at The Boathouse. Our server Sam was a pro - he handled a large group with ease. Thank you to Sam and the staff at the Boathouse!! Happy Thanksgiving.
Our server, Sam, was a fantastic addition to a wonderful meal and experience.
Sam was the best and helpful with everyone needs. What a kisser!!!
Sam waited on us and was the best. Happy Thanksgiving! He unfortunately is not taking any new timbale nor trombone students, but otherwise TOP NOTCH. And the bartending team was fun, talented and friendly. Oh, and there was food. It was awesome when we took bites between having a blast and being raucous.
Asya was excellent. She made our Thanksgiving dinner experience amazing! Great atmosphere and ambiance too!
My wife and I traveled to Richmond for a wedding and stopped by here for lunch. Sam was welcoming and a great waiter. The food was tasty. My only small complaint is that I would love to see more food on the menu.
Ceecee was an amazing server! The food was very good!
While the food was good, the best part of our evening was our server Cee Cee. She went above and beyond to make sure we had an enjoyable experience! Our granddaughter wanted to know what fruit came with her kids meal and since she didn t like melon Cee Cee made sure she got what she liked in her fruit cup. She also arranged for our grandson to get a second side of buttered noodles. Cee Cee was attentive to our needs as well, always checking back to see if everything was okay and if we needed anything. She is a great example of what a top level server should be!!! Dietary restrictions: Celiac friendly menu Kid-friendliness: Great nutritious kids menu.
Our waitress Brianna was awesome! Food was delish! Didn t disappoint!
We had an amazing experience with our servicer Brianna! she really celebrated my bestest friend and her little brother
It was my birthday and our wonderful server, Brianna was so sweet! She gave great recommendations for the food and everything was super tasty!
Brianna was amazing. She was very personable and pleasant. We had a beautiful table on the water and amazing Sunday brunch while passing through town.
Badhan was awesome
We had the absolute worst experience. This was my first and last time at the Rocketts Landing location. We had a large birthday group. From the beginning the male server was rude. We waited an hour and half for our food to come out cold. The restaurant wasn t busy at all so there was no excuse for the food to come out cold. After eating we requested the server to bring out our cake. They refused to do so until our bill was paid. They had everyone s bill confused and this took several attempts to get it straightened out. Most of us used our phones to pay. The rest of the group physically provided their card or cash. After an hour of them trying to figure the bills out they brought out the cake. At this point everyone was ready to go. Instead of verifying on THEIR computers the servers decided to come back to the table accusing us of not paying our bill. I showed him my phone clearly showing the transaction stating approved he still tells me that s not right and proceeds to get the manager. The manager then comes to the table with an attitude says to my friend what s the problem with paying your bill. All of our bills were paid. We all had confirmation receipts as well. If you have a system that clearly doesn t work instantly you shouldn t offer it to your customers. You most certainly shouldn t accuse your customers of not paying without having all of the facts. As a business owner I would NEVER treat my customers with the level of disrespect that we received. If you want to be treated with respect or planning for a large group DO NOT choose this location. They have the worst attitudes and clearly cannot handle large groups.
Amazing atmosphere, and even better service from CeeCee and Verionica, absolutely amazing they need a raise ASAP!!
Our waiter Sam was awesome as well!
Had the best birthday dinner! The food was amazing, and the views were beautiful. Our server Sam was wonderful and made the experience even better!
My FAVORITE spot for drinks (especially happy hour)! Breanna and Danté are always nice and speedy! Their seasonal drinks are also to die for
Breanna and Danté are the best bartenders!!! I had the christmas cookie cocktail which was truly a treat. Service is always quick and friendly!
Excellent service specially from Brianna, service and drinks are the best! Food was good, but the oysters and the truffle fries were delicious! Food : 4/5
What a great experience. Even without a reservation on a Saturday night, they got us sat right away. Thomas took wonderful care of us, made great suggestions and was just perfectly pleasant. The food was great, both of us ordered salmon - one simply prepared and one of their seasonal offerings and both were great! Even the manager stopped by to check in. Great experience!
Very nice experience. The food drinks and apps were very good. The server was very personable and knowledgeable of the menu. Love the atmosphere and very scenic view from the patio.
Great service by Cris :)
First time coming to The Boathouse and I must say the meal was amazing. Cris attended to us and honestly he was wonderful from the beginning to the end. If youre visiting VA, like ourselves, take the time to sit down and have a great meal.
Great spot, great view. Chris was very helpful.
Wow, what an experience. I was having a horrific day, until I stopped at The Boathouse at Rocketts Landing. The food was phenomenal, and both Dante behind the bar were unfathomably accommodating. If you do not dine here you are missing out. A hidden Richmond gem. I love this spot. 10/10!
Brianna made our night memorable! Can t wait to come back!
I had a wonderful time here the boathouse I would like to get an extra special thanks to our waitress Brianna she went above & beyond to help pull together my proposal she s totally amazing!!
I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner and after hearing all the great reviews of this place, we left feeling a little subpar. We told the server it was a special occasion and he didn t really make it feel special, especially after seeing the table behind us get a nice dessert for their birthday. We had to order our own desserts. Then he enticed us with 2 shots of tequila at the end of our meal, thinking maybe that was instead of a dessert, but we ended up paying for them after all. It felt like a normal mediocre dinner. The food was good. If we come back in the future it would only be for the food. I do think the service could have improved a lot. That s what makes the experience for us.
Ceecees service was great! She timed the meal very well and was on top of everything!
Shamar was great, great service. Food was tasty
Shamar was great, really good energy!
Had a great time celebrating my friends birthday! Our server Shamar gave great service.
The lemon lavender chicken was delicious, Sam and Shamar were very attentive for a very large party, and the views of the river and the city at sunset were incredible!
Cece our waitress was great! Food and atmosphere was good
Brianna really helped make my birthday dinner feel special
Brianna was simply fantastic!!
CeeCee made the whole experience awesome!
Just had an absolutely delightful brunch at the boathouse for my mothers 60th birthday! The staff went above and beyond for this visit and we couldn t be happier! Our waiter Shamar was amazing and couldn t have been more lovely and helpful! Food 5* Staff 5* Cannot recommend enough!
Cee cee
We truly enjoyed Sam our server, he was such a delight. We dined for restaurant week & everything was delicious. We truly enjoyed the Seared Salmon, butternut squash risotto The dessert was also delicious, must try the Zookie
Bre , Sam, and Badhan are absolutely amazing and the best at what they do. Their service is 2nd to none, and I appreciate their sense of urgency and attentiveness. I plan on making this my regular happy hour place. Great job .
Today a customer was very mean to me and I needed a pick me up and Sam, whom wasnt on shift but you guys are lucky enough to have him do home work at the bar at the same damn time was so generous and kind to my boyfriend and I. I work for American Airlines and Ill say you have a good representative for your establishment. Off the clock and all. best wishes Sam!!!
Great meal and ambience. Veronica is the best.
My waiter Veronica was the best waitress. She was very friendly and always had a smile on her face. She made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our food. She even took the time to wish my husband and I a Happy Anniversary! She was the nicest waitress i ve had in a long time. 10 stars for Veronica!
Badhan Awesome customer service Food
Cris, understood the cuisine, made excellent suggestions, and valued guest comments
Badhan was great

Thank you Bradi (GM)and your staff. Your treatment and service to our party was amazing. We had a great time and will be there again for sure!
Delicious meal and beautiful location. Veronica was a wonderful server!
Brunch today was very disappointing. I have had brunch here many times. However, giving only 3 shrimp on the shrimp and grits is ridiculous. I specifically asked for my poached eggs to be soft and runny. They were hard. Our waiter was very pleasant but never checked on us to see how our food was. I drove 2 hours from Raleigh to meet family at The Boathouse and was very disappointed .
Great waiter: Chris ( he was in training)
Cris was an awesome waiter and gave great suggestions on food choices. Will be back soon.
Filets were overcooked, poached eggs and potatoes were cold and server was not available for a while. We will not be returning anytime soon.
Dante M took the absolute best care of us. Great recommendations for what to get during happy hour and was thoroughly satisfied. Loved the Rockefeller oysters and spicy mussels. Will be coming back for happy hour again.
Amazing service, I had waiter Brianna she gave us great recommendations loved it!!
Dante M is a great bartender incredibly friendly and customers enjoy him and his service hes pretty entertaining as well. But he and his bar team are hard workers and are very efficient
DANTE M is a great server
Dante is the best he was awesome and very attentive! We ll definitely be back! Food was awesome!
We had a wonderful time celebrating our granddaughter s birthday. Brianna took really good care of us all. Looking forward to coming back soon.
First time at the Boathouse wonderful food and atmosphere. Tiffany was excellent
We sat outside and enjoyed the views. The food was very good and they give generous portions. It may be best to make reservations. We tried the fried pickles and jalapeño cornbread hush puppies as appetizers. The wedge salad with gorganzola cheese and scallops was excellent. We had a dozen oysters and had to take the maindish to go since we were so full.
Great service by Cris Loved the food and the ambiance. Food
Food was good and Chris was an awesome server.
Food was delcious! Cris was excellent! Would def come back :)
Cris was a fantastic server! Very fun, great service, attentive, and charming! :)
Cris was awesome! Very accommodating and attentive. We had a great time!

Brianna was awesome and attentive tonight. I appreciated her service and kindness - the food was excellent!I had the salmon and my husband had the lavender chicken.
Brianna was an amazing server - super accommodating without being overbearing. She seemed genuinely stoked to be serving us. Food was perfectly proportioned, and not over salted (which I recall it being years ago). The views of the river are stunning! Wheelchair accessibility: Elevator!
I went to the Boathouse for my birthday brunch with my family and had a wonderful experience! The food was excellent, the view was beautiful, and our server Brianna was so kind and attentive! I ll definitely be back!
Lovely place to grab a bite. Blu provided great service. The Island nachos left a little to be desired (grainy queso, tail-on shrimp, odd hot/cold flavor combinations), but the teriyaki pineapple rice was solid. Drinks are a bit pricey.
Wow
We went to The Boathouse to celebrate my nieces 25th birthday and CeeCee was our waitress. She was very attentive, very knowledgeable and very friendly. The food was great and she made our experience even better!! Thank you CeeCee!!
Sam was great! He made our experience wonderful! Would come back just from our experience with him.
The food was great. Our server Sam was also great

Sam was our waiter and he rocked it! Attentive, kind, and polite. We will be back.
Food took a very long time to be delivered
Dante , Topher and Courtney were our bartenders tonight. They were super attentive and suggestive to what we should order. 10/10 recommend going here for a night cap! came again today a few months later and just wow , it s gotten even better if that was even possible. The General Manager Brandi made sure that we had the best experience and checked up on us multiple times , bartenders were attentive and drinks came out fast just WOW!!!
Hunter was very efficient and personable. We had a lovely birthday dinner and enjoyed the ambience.
Badhan was amazing, the views were amazing, and the happy hour is insane!!! 5/5 stars, go to boathouse!
CeeCee taught us about suspension growth oysters and served up some tasty fried pickles!
We had a delicious Saturday lunch of crab cake sandwiches on a picture perfect day along the James. Our server Brianna was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.
Very disappointing. If you like to wait 40+ min for water, this is the place for you. Made a reservation for 6 for anniversary date night. Showed up for reservation at 6, didnt get sat until 10 min later. Waited 30 min for a waiter at the table. Had to go find a busser to ask for some water at least. Waited another 10 min for it to come. Left at the 45 min mark. Never waited so long for a waiter to take our order, so we left before ever meeting our waiter. Cant even say we hated the experience because there was no experience to be had. Five stars goes to the valet for the excellent service Recommend the water. Was worth the wait Parking: Great valet. 12$
My husband and I were in Richmond and it was a beautiful day out so we made a last minute reservation. We ate outside. Beautiful view. Food was excellent. Sam, our server was excellent. Service was fantastic!! The fried shrimp dish was so good. And that Classic Zookie dessert is heaven. Their spicy mussels are underwhelming! Don t waste your money. Brussel sprouts were great.
Very fun birthday celebration for a friend. Sam was amazing and so accommodating - thanks so much!
sam did a wonderful job caring for our table on our friends birthday!
We came here with a group of coworkers, we were 10 and wanted to be outside so we sat 2 tables next to each other . We had a wonderful time , the view is absolutely amazing especially during sunset. The service was great and the food was 10/10 . One of my favorite spots here in Richmond
We went to The Boathouse to celebrate my daughters wedding. Everything was perfect! If we could rate the service and our server CeeCee higher, we would. She made the wedding dinner so special and unforgettable. We loved her and even asked her to celebrate the cake cutting with us. Highly recommend! Food was amazing, atmosphere was picturesque and the service was like no other!
Great food with a beautiful view
Really enjoyed the food. And the service that we received from Jenna. Parking: Parking is free and close to the restaurant Food : 5/5 |
Went for my wifes birthday. Shed been several times it was my first. This place is 1st class.
Asya took great care of us & we loved the views
Food was great! Asya s service was amazing!
