“I’ve spent a lot of time here throughout my entire lifetime and have had more significant events take place here than i can name, even including my brothers Celebration of Life… but my most recent experiences here have really made me see how far this place has come. I always have a great time here stopping in for a drink, shout out to Ang & Randy both for being the best bartenders around, and the food is always delicious! but i will never being able to thank this establishment enough for being the most perfect choice of venue for my oldest brothers 40th birthday! Their catering options are outstanding, everything was so perfect! They were so accommodating to every piece of this party and I am so grateful for this place and all of their staff! ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HERE EVERY TIME“

“My go to Mexican cuisine for the last 24+years. They have multiple locations Eastlake, Mentor, Madison, might be some more! My favorite place for carne asada burrito and a tall dose equis. Awesome service, friendly staff, great food, try the fried ice cream!“

“We’ve added The Boot to our regular rotation of restaurants. Wing Wednesday is crazy good and the wings are huge. We’re also big fans of the Friday fish fry. The soup sampler is genius and the soups have been really good. We have in the past had waitress issues, as others noted, but they have been really good lately. It’s loud and the ambiance is that of a no-frills local restaurant, but if you’re looking for an unpretentious place with great and affordable food, this is it.“

“Great people and Great food. Stop in there for a great experience.. Thank you all.. Your the best...“

“10/7/2023: 10 of us from Canton Ohio walked to the “Water Street Bar” from our rental at 430 N. Broadway. It was a 1 minute walk to Water St. and another 1 minute walk down the St.. We had a great time at this little gem of a neighborhood bar, playing pool (2 tables). Very clean and spacious , lots of bar seats at the bar while watching pool. The owner Ernie, was generous buying us drinks and accommodating our various needs. Great place after a day of wineries. There was no food because they were only open 2 weeks after shut down from Covid but food was in their future. Friendly neighborhood bar, left a $100 Nike OSU jacket there that night and they had it waiting for us to comeback for it the next evening!“

“We love Joe Flaco!! Always a friendly face, great company and cheap drinks! 💕“

“great food..service was great..“

“Great prices and food. Went there to check out the karaoke cause I using go to the High Tide when I come up to GOTL. This is the best Karaoke venue in GOTL. Great system and DJ. Barry Weaver does a amazing job. I'm a DJ/Karaoke host myself in Northeast Ohio. I love singing there.“

“Ice cold beer, great food and awesome people... You won't find a friendlier atmosphere on the strip. You're treated like family here...... And there's always something going on at the Lounge.. Karaoke Night, on Thursdays is a good way to have fun and show off your talent. Also on the weekends, are various bands. Come join the party.“

“We had an amazing experience here. They were crazy busy but just jay the bartender was awesome.“

“Hands down, best bar/ restaurant on the strip! I don’t even like Rueben’s and theirs was AMAZING!!! Was at GOTL for the weekend bar crawl and with only four bars left we ended up staying at Murphys because we loved it so much!!!! We would travel from our home almost two hours away just for this place!“

“Great venue for live music. But not sure why they have grill in the name. No food. But head out back and get great dogs and fries from Chubbys.“
