“OMG if you can get Hillary as your server you have struck the lottery!!! She’s quick and SO witty and she sings at times and is amazing!!! She’s the ONLY one you want!!!“

“The Island House staff is always awesome! Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Shout out to Erica - one of my favorite bartenders on the island. She and Joe (at the Caddy Shack) are the best!“

“Great. Ambience. Good Pizza. Excellent food truck.“

“My friend and I were out enjoying this fall day. We stopped in for a festive fall drink. An Autumn Glow and a frozen expresso martini our bartender Cat was an absolute rockstar. The food was fabulous too.“

“I had lunch at the Goat today and not only was the food and service excellent, but the owner went out of his way to make sure our day trip ended on a high note. My bike got a flat tire and he insisted on hauling my bike and myself to the ferry. This 70 year old greatly appreciated his kindness and you can be sure we will support the Goat every time we visit the island.“

“Love the vibe at Crush. Good food and great drink selection.“

“We love coming here! Beautiful views and great food/drinks AND service. Our server was Alaina and she was sweet and wonderful :).“

“I actually love the place. Unfortunately on our last visit we ordered prime rib which was without a doubt the worst I have ever had. I would think they'd be embarrassed to serve it and to charge $25 was robbery at its finest. Very disappointing from a place I typically enjoy.“

“my wife and I tried Cheekz last night for the first time. We ordered two burgers and an app and everything was beyond amazing. This may be the best burger I've ever had. Here's the best part, my burger was a mistake and I was given the wrong burger. Best mistake ever and I'll get it again (inferno burger). The owner stopped by and chatted for a bit and our waitress had owned her goof, even though we were completely content; we were sent off with my original ordered burger and my wife was given a duplicate to make up for it. incredible service, staff and food! We'll definitely be back.“

“Wonderful food, friendly people, quick service. Came to Middle Bass for a quick island stop to refuel and refresh after a day of boating, and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The people who work here are very friendly. The restaurant itself is simplistic and pleasant. The food was PHENOMENAL. The cheese bread (or whatever it was called, I can't quite remember) was delicious, simply superb. The pickle pizza was also delicious, these people have the brilliance of putting ruffles chips on top as well. Simply amazing, awesome, and will return again!“

“Awesome place to go my first time been staff was super nice especially Hannah and Daniel“

“came up from perry county for a little summer fun and told my wife I was not leaving back to the hills till I had some type of seafood and this joint was on point! I had 2 lobster tails with potatoes as a side absolutely delicious also had a half pound of crab legs, my son had the steam pot and he loved it, my other son had pizza and shrimp and he loved the pizza and I ate the shrimp he was full from the pizza, my wife had the steam pot but brought it home and she tore it up when we walked in the door! highly recommend and loved being able to sit 5 feet from the lake! employees was the best and very helpful! check this place out you won't regret it!“

“Delicious food, a great wine and cocktail selection and a beautiful atmosphere! The Canoe Club is one of our absolute favorites and a must stop if you are in the area! We ate there last night and we were waited on by Ally, who was one of the best servers we have had! Thank you Canoe Club for always being a fantastic dining experience!“
