Reviews for St Johns Rivership Dining Experience

My friend and I are visiting from Massachusetts and this was one of the highlights of our whole trip. We went on the luncheon cruise today. We both had the coconut chicken entree and it was delicious 😋. The manager, Jackie and her whole wait staff crew were excellent! So friendly and helpful! A special shout-out to Shark! And the entertainment was wonderful! A live singer with a beautiful voice!! Will do this again next year for sure!!!

We had an amazing experience on the boat thanks to Jackie and Gary. Jackie was an incredible server and genuinely made the whole trip better. To top it off, tomorrow is her birthday, so happy early birthday, Jackie! The food was outstanding as well. Gary absolutely crushed it. The meals were fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell there’s real care and skill behind what he does. Huge thanks to both of them for making the experience memorable. Highly recommend.

Excellent trip up the St John's River. Food views, and relaxing. Great place to have corporate outings or simply a nice trip with the family or friends. Highly recommend.

Got this as a Christmas gift from my sister for the family and what a great experience! The boat was still decorated for Christmas after the holidays and had a beautiful Southern charm. The service was so attentive and positive (our waiter, Shark, was so great!) and the food was delicious. It was such a comforting lunch experience with the family. Definitely plan to try this again (hopefully for dinner next time).

This is the BEST so put it on your to-do list, regardless of if you are a resident or visitor. The staff is absolutely amazing!!! Shout out to Shark for making the trip extra awesome. We’ll be back!

Tea Party was cute. Don't expect hoagie, more like spread on bread. River ride nice, very friendly staff. Been on a dinner cruise. Food surprisingly food. Drinks expensive, but not lacking alcohol. Good to support a small business and enjoy the river for a few hours.

It was a wonderful time and good food. Portions were very nice and variety was good, including a couple vegan items.

We went on the Alice in Wonderland High Tea cruise and had a wonderful time. It was a 3-hour relaxing ride on the St. John’s River. The decor was very clever and the food served for the tea party was delicious, but more of a light meal. The guests came dressed in various outfits to add to the fun - some came with tea party dresses, others in Alice in Wonderland costumes. It is a great way to spend the day with the family. The tickets were not expensive and it was not overcrowded. I would highly recommend it.

Out group had absolutely the best time celebrating a 70th birthday. The singer was outstanding. She could sing anything, just fantastic. We danced... a lot! There were a lot of on board birthday celebrations and you could tell everyone was having a blast! The food was very good also and exceeded my expectations. The service was great. The meal came out at a great pace, not rushed. They had fruits and pastries to eat when we boarded at 11 as well as drinks. That was really nice. Lunch started coming out about 12:30. It was a good time.

Took the 3 hour lunch cruise today with my sister in law. We got to sit on the second level, away from the live entertainment but awesome view from our window seats at the table. The price of the ticket includes a 4 course meal that is made to order over the course of the ride. On the table is complimentary water and both sweet and unsweetened iced tea, they also have Coke products along with a full bar. We had finger foods of veggies and fruit with dip and sweet bread to start. Then a salad course, mixed greens and other veggies with dressing on the side along with bread and rolls. For lunch I had the chicken Marsala, mashed and Brussels sprouts, my sister enjoyed the prime rib with mashed and corn. For dessert was coffee and carrot cake. Natalie was our server and she was attentive and personable. Made it that much more enjoyable. We had both live entertainment and guided nature narrated tour. Christine has a beautiful voice and knows an array of different songs. She kept us well entertained. The breeze and the view from the top was beautiful. The spray from the paddle wheel was cooling. It was a beautiful and relaxing luncheon. I highly recommend taking the trip.
