$14 for a burger and it doesn't come with seasoning.

Unfortunately the food experience was overrated and very expensive. I ventured here specifically for the lobster roll, which was made very well, but didn’t quite seem to equate to the $30 that was spent on just that. My husband also purchased the fish and chips which the portion size just didn’t seem to add up to the $25 that was spent on that as well. It was disappointing to receive food that had cost over $60 already but still had to purchase more food which was a cheeseburger and fries. The cheeseburger had no taste and was poor in quality and made my stomach very uncomfortable immediately. To me it seems like you pay more for the lakeside view than the food itself.

Disgusting and chewy clams. Do not visit.

I went there with my wife on the Labor Day weekend to hear one of Western New York's premiere rock guitar groups Dave Constantine and his band who's been rocking Western New York since the early '70s and enjoy what they had to offer in the way of a variety of foods from burgers hot dogs sausage to seafood including various prepared clams scallops fish shrimp and enjoy the fantastic guitar stylings of Dave Constantine and his band I understand that they close after Labor Day but will be opening again after the spring warms things up again in 2025.

I was told to leave because I had an electric scooter. Most ridiculous thing I ever heard. Been there before and no one said anything. I think the staff had nothing better to do.

Do NOT get the seafood. Stay on the burger side. We happened to be driving by and stopped. I sure wish we hadn't. The food was terrible and WAY overpriced. We got a lobster roll and asked if it was hot. We were told yes, but just the bun was warm. The lobster was a cold salad and it had imitation crab meat in it. If there wasn't imitation crab in it, it was terrible tasting lobster. It was terrible. Fish and chips was two small pieces of over battered fish and potato wedges that were ok. Baked beans tasted like they were from a dented can. Baked fish wasn't terrible, but it wasn't hot. I'm sure the restaurant will respond and say we should have given them a chance to make it right, but nothing, and I mean NOTHING, inspired any confidence that the food could be better. We did get a cheeseburger to eat something decent, and that was good. The music was good, but was too loud for the immediate vicinity. We would not go back nor would we recommend.
