River House Wine & Bar

Great setting with different seating areas and bars outside. No seating area inside with AC. Fans are not enough on a hot day/night in Miami to keep you cool. For a ‚wine bar‘ it was very disappointing as you only had 2 wines offered as an option per glass and none on the Happy Hour. You could only order them by the bottle All drinks on the HH offered come pre mixed and are super sweet. Very limited food selection and although I didn’t try the meats the cheeses I did, had no taste.

What a lovely swanky large wine bar. I love vibes. It’s a mix of lagniappe and casadonna. Came Friday night. There was a dj and food available late. Lovely date spot or place to come with friends ;) plenty of good looking people around

This was my second time visiting this spot — my first visit was back when it was called Casa Florida. The interior changes are definitely for the better, but unfortunately, everything else was disappointing. For a place that calls itself a wine bar, the wine selection is very limited and underwhelming. Calling yourself a wine bar while offering so few options just doesn’t make sense. Service was another major issue. I ordered a cocktail and had to wait over 45 minutes for it. Drinks should never take that long — 10 minutes maximum would be reasonable. On top of that, food was served on plastic plates with disposable cutlery. Not only is this not eco-friendly, but it also cheapens the overall experience and clashes with the “luxury” image they’re trying to project. The only highlight of the evening was the DJ — she was fantastic. But overall, with such high prices and such poor service, I won’t be coming back.

The wine section has plenty to choose from and good advice and pricesThe place is nice, very pretty in the old style, there is a bus suitable for eating inside, the pizza is handmade and very tasty

This place was cool when it was Casa Florida. They leveled UP with the wine bar though. Not the most impressive selection, but decent. Still has a bar as well. Charcuterie options were great, being able to build your own and have it prepped for you was very cool. And they have decent pizza available there that's cooked on the spot. Overall, a welcome addition and a place I'll be happy to return to.

River House Wine and Bar is a hidden gem in the heart of Miami, set inside the city’s oldest hotel. It perfectly blends vintage charm with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Both the indoor and outdoor bars are stunning, and the venue even features a one-of-a-kind speakeasy inside a retro bus. The vibe is unmatched, with a mix of live performances and curated playlists spanning from 80s classics to reggaeton to Afrohouse beats. It’s a place that draws a lively, diverse crowd of all ages. On top of that, the food and drinks are top-tier. Whether you’re looking for a fun night out, a great date spot, or a place to pregame, River House is a must-visit.

River House Wine & Bar is simply delightful. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels cozy yet elegant—perfect for a special date or a night out with friends. The wine selection is outstanding, with options for every taste, and the staff truly knows how to recommend the perfect pairing. The food exceeded my expectations: beautifully presented, made with fresh ingredients, and full of flavor. Service is top-notch—attentive, friendly, and always with a smile—which makes the experience even more enjoyable. This is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to again and again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality, great vibes, and a memorable evening. 🍷✨

Definitely, River House isn’t the best choice for rainy days — it’s an open-air setting with just a small covered area. The food was excellent! Marcos was very kind and attentive with our order. Ari welcomed us warmly and recommended some amazing wines. And Justina — simply the best waitress ever: friendly, efficient, and genuinely caring.

Emily was absolutely awesome! She has such a great personality and made our night so much fun. She recommended the Bees Knees (iykyk ) The drinks were fantastic, and the space itself is beautiful -- an intimate, cozy setting that's perfect for a night out in Miami. Love this spot and especially Emily for making the experience unforgettable!

River House Wine & Bar was such a lovely spot for a date night. My boyfriend & I went around sunset and grabbed a cozy table outside. We ordered pizza which was delicious and paired perfectly with their wine selection that was both affordable and really good quality. We love playing monopoly deal & uno on our dates so it was the perfect chill setting for that. The DJ starts later in the evening which worked out great since we wanted to talk and hang out. There was even this sweet older couple next to us who saw us playing cards & ended up bringing out their own deck so we were all just playing separately but laughing and vibing together. It was such a fun and wholesome night. We definitely recommend this place!

Loved this place! The vibes are top tier. Loved the music and the atmosphere. The charcuterie and pizza were soooo good. And loved the wine options. Service was a bit slow but didn't take away from the fun!

For the price it was disappointing to be served the food on paper plates

We need more spots like this in Miami. Cool and eclectic wine bar. When you walk in there is a fridge with a variety of wines to choose from. There are also meats and cheeses to build your own charcuterie board. There is a full bar and brick oven for pizza in the patio. The service was a little slow, but otherwise great.

Went there last night and the service was horrible, our waitress was so lost, forgot about us and our order, we had to keep getting the drinks at the bar then the wine as well, the food was horrible too, dont order the croquetas, they are super soggy, for sure they were microwaved....

The staff is friendly and helpful and there is a big variety of wines if you want to hang out for a bit. There is karaoke night on Thursdays, and I attended a wine experience event, which was really nice. I do recommend more fans during the summertime. Also, it is best if you park in the street. I do not recommend that you park at the River Inn parking lot, even if you are a guest; the staff next door in the parking lot and Flor from the front desk are extremely rude and unprofessional to guests. Thankfully, although connected, it is a separate entity from River House.

Friendly staff and great wine. Very easy to get in touch with to make a reservation and they have great DJs.
