Service was quick. Our server was very courteous and conscientious. Our food was excellent. The view of the lake was awesome.

Usually Waterfront has good food and service, unfortunately our last visit was terrible on both accounts. Our visit was Sunday Aug 6th. Seating was quick and our waitress was prompt to begin with, it was a train wreck after that. Our salads & bread never arrived. Took way too long to get our food. My crab legs were overcooked & the steak was dry. For $50 a plate I expect better. My wife's steak was ordered medium and was overcooked, her lobster tail was good. My kids Mac & cheese looked like it was made several hours ago. When I pointed out the salad & bread issue, the waitress offered to bring them, but no offer to make it right was offered. We took soup to go in lieu of a salad after the mediocre meal. When we got home we found a very small serving of soup and one breadstick each. The soup was pretty good.

Nice atmosphere but the food was only mediocre at best. Definitely not worth the $40 price for the house specialty seafood plate. Sadly I can't really recommend this place and don't think we'll be returning.

Have dined here several times and usually have decent service and food. Tonight my family had dinner here, I ordered a King Prime Rib (16oz on the menu). What I got was about 10oz of fat and gristle and 6oz of edible meat. When the waitress stopped by to ask how everything looked so far I said to be honest my cut is mostly fat and gristle and the edible meat portion was less than a petite cut. She just shrugged and said well at least it was prepared the way you ordered and walked away, no offer to resolve the issue or anything. I took a picture after I had cut off all of the fat and gristle showing what I’m talking about, only had one bite of meat at this point. $32.00 for this cut with no resolve offered, what a joke! Restaurants and people that work there just don’t care anymore at all! On the plus side the view of the lake was beautiful. Waterfront, do better with your customer service, have some pride!

One of the worst meals I have had in years. The service was really slow and it took almost 45-60 minutes to get our food and was almost to the point where we were ready to leave without eating. When our food finally arrived it was BAD. Every dish was missing things. The Philly Cheesesteak was 80% gristle, the bun was an old stale hotdog bun with a ketchup thumbprint in the back of it (yuck), my side was less than a dozen cold from frozen French fries, they originally forgot the au jus but when I reminded them I wish I hadn't because it was so bad. My GFs order had sand in it and she was given some very off tasting mash potatoes. I would not recommend this place, especially at its price point.

Service and food are both terrific. The stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorites..I love seafood so the scallops are so delicious and perfect. My husband and I found this place fishing quite a few years ago and we've been coming here ever since. Can't say enough good things about our waterfront!

Waited to be seated while staff walked by my group multiple times without saying anything to us. Took 2 hrs for food to be served.

Came to get some dinner and while waiting to be seated a lady came up and asked for silverware from the host, explaining her husband had a salad and had been waiting to eat it. So we left...
This restaurant has a great lakeside location and view. Plenty of food choices. I you're a boater they have a private dock for their customers. Casual or dress up as much as you want.My wife had stuffed mushrooms and dinner salad, I had Hamburger Steak covered with brown gravy, mushrooms and onions, I chose baked potato and dinner salad. Both were very good and reasonably priced.Our server was Micki who was prompt, efficient and did a very nice job to make our dining experience special. There were 6 in our group and they enjoyed the night too.If you haven't been there give it a try. If you've been there you know what I mean.Thank you!DaveParking: Plenty of parking for all size vehicles.

Great food and a nice atmosphere. We were looking for a supper club type restaurant and we found it! The food was awesome, the view of the lake tranquil, and the atmosphere comfortable. We had steak, seafood, and ribs and all were excellent. We will definitely be coming here again!Kid-friendliness: The have a good kids menu, albeit small. My daughter loved the burgers!

Loaded waffle fries and chicken Caesar salad are the best try the best

My favorite restaurant to eat at when in Buffalo or Annandale. I always have the server order for me, and have received a different meal each time. The house special with added jumbo shrimp was excellent.

Stopped here on a Sunday right before a Vikings game. What a fun atmosphere! Food was good too.
Tiger shrimp and ribs are so good!
