I was pleasantly surprised. In the past The Launch has been mediocre and their water tasted like it came straight from the sewer but they are the only game in town on the river between Ortona and Franklin locks so we stopped in. We immediately noticed they had skinnied down their menu so I was not feeling good about the visit especially knowing it was going to be an expensive lunch. When the drinks arrived we were expecting sewer water and planned to dump tons of lemon to make...read full review
Ate here for the first time today and it was so delicious. I had the best fish tacos I’ve ever had! The staff is so friendly and the atmosphere perfect. Five stars!
We just moved to Labelle 2 months ago! The Launch is our new "go to"! Great tiki bar on the water! Every meal we have had has been fantastic! Rachal and Camry are amazing bartenders and the atmosphere is so enjoyable after a long day of work! We are so happy someone recommended this place to us!

The Launch is a hidden gem with a beautiful view and amazing food. It features a great tiki bar on the water, making it a perfect spot for relaxing after a long day of work. The service is friendly, with attentive staff providing excellent recommendations. Diners have praised the grouper sandwich and the best fish tacos they’ve ever had. Recent visitors noted that the menu has been skinnied down, but the food quality has improved significantly, with some mentioning that the water and tea now taste good thanks to a water filter. The mozzarella cheese wedges are fantastic, and the smash burger is very tasty with hot, crispy fries. The fish and chips received positive remarks as well. The atmosphere inside could use a little sprucing up, but the outstanding food and service make up for it. Prices are a few dollars more per item, reflecting the location on the water. Overall, The Launch remains a nice place to visit, especially for those who want to enjoy a breezy evening on the water.
