First off, this is a restaurant you should bring cash to as there's a 3.75% charge added for using a credit card.Second off, the food isn't great. The fish fry didn't have any flavor but was nice and crispy. The chicken riggies have a little spice but the consistency isn't what I expected from other restaurants. And my burger... I ordered a Southwest Burger that should be onion rings, pepper jack, lettuce, and sauce... I got a burger with a dry white cheese, jalapenos, and bacon. But the waitress told me it was what I ordered.Bathroom toilet was broken and the handle was falling off.Overall, not impressed.

The bartender/server was great! Unfortunately, customer service is a dying treat. However, this guy was friendly, had personality, and cared!

Food was not great - wings were rubbery and lacked flavour. Waitress was not really great, average at best. Very slow. What really annoyed me was the $6 fee that I was charged to use my credit card to pay. I wouldn’t recommend and I will never return.

We thought we would try this place and bring a couple friends. Started off with table very sticky. Coleslaw was spoiled but waitress was quick to replace with something else. Waitress gave me bill and paid the $113.07 with my credit card. Came back and noticed there was a additional $4.26 charge. Also left a $20 cash tip. I got back home and noticed nowheres on the receipt it says this charge.Just a larger amount when I checked out with online banking. Very deceptive practices not disclosing this or giving an itemized bill explaining this charge.

Fantastic meal. Service was friendly and efficient. Haddock dinner was super, shrimp over pasta with a wine sauce was amazing. A great meal.

The stuffed haddock was delicious!! Great service, server was attending bar, hosting and waiting on tables.

Good food at reasonable prices. Servers were attentive. We stopped here because we were boating and there is many free dock spaces right in front of the restaurant. Nice view of the boats and Erie canal! Only downside is the Speedway is closeby and you will hear the noise when they have big events.

Very disrespectful owner. After purchasing a wrist band for the chicken wing run and being with dozens of people spending hundreds of dollars we said we lost a wrist band instead of the owner offering to replace to wrist hand he took the food off our table and told us to get lost. Extremely unprofessional the disrespect of him towards customers is disgraceful. I couldn’t imagine being his employee. What a shame beautiful place with piss poor ownership …

Food selection at this place is terrible and the three times I've been there, each dish has been disappointing. Draft beers have some magnetic stoppers filled with chemicals in every drink. Seems dirty. Wait staff always seem too busy and not caring. The only reason I go to this place is because my mother likes to go there.

We went on a slow Monday. I ordered the nachos and my friend ordered the haddock bites. They use white queso cheese that had no flavor and the chips were well done. The haddock bites were fishy and had a weird taste. Service took forever and she only had 4 tables... 3 of which already had their food and we were the fourth. She was grumpy until time for the payment/tip part of the whole ordeal. I didn't complain to anyone (I hate doing that) but I use Yelp all the time and wanted to review it so you wouldn't make my mistake.
