Ordered the scallops, the menu said “four large sea scallops” the “large”were the size of a half dollar, there were 3 that size and the 4th was the size of a nickel. Not sure how that comes out of a kitchen. My husband order the brisket Mac n cheese and it’s about the size of a child Mac in cheese. If you’re hungry order a lot of food lol.

This restaurant is an oasis of world class food in an area generally offering tourist lake dining. Literally everything on the menu sounds good, and then actually tastes amazing. The portions are not large but the flavors and presentation would impress anyone knowledgeable about fine dining.

Suggestion: Adding a note on your menu (and website) that the restaurant is tapas-style could be a great way to let guests know the portions are smaller and perfect for sharing bite-sized plates. It sets the stage for the kind of fun, social dining experience you’re aiming for... rather than leaving it as an unexpected surprise.
Food Feedback: While I appreciated the concept of the brisket mac & cheese, the execution felt a bit off—the brisket was dry and lacked flavor, and the mac & cheese was slightly oily rather than creamy and cheesy. One customer’s comment comparing it to leftovers isn’t entirely off the mark.
Related to the owner's responses to other customer reviews of this dish, it’s worth considering that some diners (myself included) may finish it simply because they’re hungry and the portion is small. The bigger goal might be to make it a dish guests are genuinely excited to order again.

I had high expectations based on other's reviews. Unfortunately, my husband and I found the food mediocre at best. I appreciate that it was not mass produced food, but lacked some flavor and paid for just a main entree and not really much more (brisket served over mac and cheese came with a side of 5 coin sized carrots). I have a small appetite and felt the portion size was on the small size even for me. My husband had lobster patties on a bed of lettuce. Dessert was disappointing too. I try to limit my refined sugar intake and only order dessert if I think it's worth the sugar ingestion. I had the ultimate chocolate cake which was ok but definitely not ultimate and was more of a cross between cake and cheesecake like. My husband got the flour less chocolate cake and it was very gooey. Overall, disappointed in the meal.

I'm very disappointed. The waitress was very friendly. I ordered the brisket mac and cheese I didn't realize it came in a 4oz bowl with small 3 pieces of very dried brisket on it. My husband ordered the short ribs and cheesy polenta and got a few pieces of an over cooked pot roast as we requested the appetizer came out at the same time. We were both disappointed with the entrees but we were happy the Asiago bowl looked delicious till we tasted it and it was cold. I had a tito and lemonade and it was $19. I get going to a nicer place and paying more for a delicious meal with small portions but that is contingent on the meal being delicious not tasting like small portions of left overs. Shame to we were planning on coming back for the flat bread mushroom pizza and the sushi. But no thank you.

This is the place to go in Bemus Point if you are looking for great wine, food, music and service. The atmosphere is relaxing and has sort of a Bogart Casablanca feel to it. The piano/jazz/singer ‘Nick’, is extremely talented and a regular on weekends. Outdoor and indoor seating are both excellent. We visit the CHQ & Bemus areas often during the summer, and Splash is our favorite place.

I have been alive on this planet for 21 years, and i have to say this is the most delicious food i’ve ever had in my entire life. The drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is amazing. This is genuinely the best resturant in Bemus Point.
Outstanding wine selection and phenomenal desserts, not to mention the fantastic service, I highly recommend a visit to a unique and worthwhile establishment. We were able to impress our out of town guests with delicious wine and delectable desserts. Thank you, Splash!

Splash is an amazing, one of a kind restaurant! Shawn, one of the two owners came to our table within 5 minutes of our arrival. Shawn treated us like family from the minute we walked in. He and Susan, his wife, also an owner, have created an extraordinary experience. Shawn plays piano on evenings when he doesn't have guest musicians.
The nightclub style restaurant is so welcoming and fun. The staff, every single one of them function like a team and serve as a reflection of the owners' desired culture. The food is fresh, well prepared, and memorable. All the plates are artistically presented showing off beautiful food.
I want to praise the owners for their decision to be open seven days a week. There are so few restaurants since the pandemic that serve seven days a week. As travelers we appreciate your efforts.
Usually when I write even excellent reviews like this one I mention a few areas that need some improvement. I have no areas of improvement. You are both consummate professionals who excel in every aspect of the hospitality business.
Thanks for two beautiful evenings. We will return one day. Have a great summer!

Worst experience ever. Waited 40 mins for drinks, out of shrimp at 2 on Memorial Day at 2:00. Waitress put in wrong order for my daughter. Manager came over and was rude and then said they were also out of quinoa. Chicken wings app is marked gluten free but comes w Mac and cheese which is not gluten free, also they misspelled gluten all over the menu. When we said we could have gone to other restaurant the manager said in a oissy tone - fine go ahead but it won’t be as good. The California roll was dry as hell and said stick crab and there was none. The ahi tuna was bland and the items were entree prices and stated as such and they were appeitizer portions. I couldn’t even get a straw w my drink. It took over 45 mins to get raw food, which was bland and dry at that. Manager had no customer service experience at all. Bar tender was new and didn’t know how to make drinks …on Memorial Day weekend. That is hilarious Please please post this fictitious camera footage, we were never asked to leave, we never even complained after waiting 40 mins just for drinks. So please do show because myself and my 2 daughters have more class than that!

As someone who works in the food and beverage industry, this is the first restaurant review I have ever felt compelled to write. Completely deceiving menu, items labeled as gluten free that aren’t, ingredients missing from sushi and drinks. Most menu items being unavailable due to “holiday weekend” yet the restaurant was empty late afternoon. Took 45 mins to receive a water and cocktails. Worst California roll I have ever tasted, dry and lacking flavor. Manager was extremely rude and expressed that the other restaurant’s food in the vicinity “would not taste as good” if we had left and went somewhere else. I am not one to complain while dining out but coming here seriously put a damper on our day.
