In the South, there’s an intimate connection between the table and the land. Our fertile soil feeds corn and cattle. The palmettos provide cover for quail and game. And the ocean provides its bounty with the incoming tide. River House is a culinary celebration of this relationship and our professed love for the land and waters of the Lowcountry.
Overlooking the May River and surrounded by sweeping oak trees, River House is designed to provide an exclusive riverfront dining experience that is only found at Palmetto Bluff. Expansive floor to ceiling windows allow copious amounts of natural light to wash through the dining room. As the day turns to night, the varying colors of the sky are part of the show until darkness arrives and envelopes the room in a deep, moody glow.
Comforting and elegant, River House showcases a curated assembly of seasonal ingredients and vegetables served alongside thoughtfully sourced meats and seafood. Bespoke cocktails and curated wines add to the experience, creating unforgettable nights of Lowcountry dining.
Chef de Cuisine Daniel Vesey leads his team with inspiration and passion, transforming gastronomy into art, which is why he was the ideal fit for the newest dining space at Montage Palmetto Bluff, River House. Chef Daniel has successfully led all aspects of Octagon restaurant, bar and in-room dining as well as oversight for Fore & Aft. He leads his team with inspiration and passion, transforming gastronomy into art, which is why he was the ideal fit for Chef de Cuisine of the newest dining space at Palmetto Bluff, River House.
Inspired by the bounty of the Lowcountry our artisans have crafted an array of bespoke cocktails. Enjoy one of our seasonally crafted beverages or experience a new take on the classics. River House’s wine list features over 2,500 different labels from the world’s major wine regions in a variety of formats, with an emphasis on benchmark wines and notable emerging wineries.
