33 Best American Restaurants near Put In Bay

“Had a great meal there this past Saturday 7/5. The brussel sprouts are terrific, smash burger was claimed to be the best ever and the French dip was outstanding. Atmosphere and service were amazing. We visit often and can’t wait to go back.“

“Everything about this place is just awesome. It’s an atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else on the island! Staff, food, pricing, absolutely everything is wonderful and it makes me wish I lived closer so I could return more often!“

“Great place, that’s all!!!“

“Serve what is ordered in a timely manner. Our party of 4 was here last Wednesday for lunch and only 1 of 4 orders was correct. We waited 10 minutes after being seated and received drink order after another 10 minutes. All 4 of us placed food order, ( nothing not on menu) and order was finally brought to table 30 minutes later. Only 1 order was correct. After this, it only took about 5 minutes for the other 3 to be delivered and the cole slaw was incorrect, ever hear of cole slaw with no cabbage? Manager was asked for and he was very rude, no apology and no compensation offered. Beware! They only want your money and have no idea how to run a business properly.“

“Great place! My 9 year old had the best time too. They allow kids during the day Mon-Thursday for $10. I highly recommend this place for a day by the pool. The music brought me back to my 20’s -club days. We had a great afternoon! You feel like you’re at the beach here, & in this town. Will return“

“Y’all this is a great place to come feed your hungry belly when you’re drinking! We had the most amazing server, Michael, and we loved his service and the food so much we ate there twice! He recommended we try the Brie chicken arugula pizza and it DID NOT miss. Easily the best pizza I’ve ever had!! The drinks are delicious and the pricing is fitting to what you get!“

“Delicious food! Refreshing beverages. Fast and friendly service. Reasonable prices. Definitely a 5 star 🌟.“

“A time capsule but that's not an issue for me! They tell you to never judge a book by it's cover and with this place you really can't. As a vegetarian it is difficult for me to get anything other than pizza or salad. Tippers offers a variety of food that I can eat. I ordered the Alfredo and wow was I impressed. You get a small hint of whipping cream but it is very rich and creamy. The after taste of the whipping cream just adds to the fact that the chef is not just using the jar stuff, but actually making it from scratch! Overall delicious!!

“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!!!“

“Great food and service! Recommend every time“

“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!“

“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.“

“This is a fantastic indoor restaurant with two bars and outside dining. The patio area is beautifully designed, offering a refreshing open-air experience. The real showstopper is the incredible outdoor area featuring a gorgeous pool with an entrancing waterfall. It creates an unbelievably relaxing ambiance. Whether you're looking for a lively night out, a peaceful escape, or simply a great meal in a beautiful setting, JF Walleyes delivers on all fronts.“

“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!“

“We really enjoyed this place and had a great evening! Everyone was so friendly and the food was amazing! We will definitely be back! 🌺☠️❤️🎶“

“We had eaten here several years ago and really liked it. Back in the area, we decided to go there for lunch. Sometimes a restaurant can change over time. But not Slater's. We ordered Beef Brisket Burgers with hand cut fries. We certainly liked the burgers and the fries were incredible. The service was truly superb. Thank you staff.“

“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!“

“The service was really good. The pizza and the desert were really good. The Caesar salad was just ok, and the drinks were ok but overpriced. With tip, a meal for two cost slightly over 100$ and for what we got, it was definitely overpriced.“

“The grilled turkey, bacon, cheese sandwich, was the best version of that sandwich I have ever had! I went in for a favorite salad which was not on the menu this time, and was pleasantly surprised!“

“Food was really good and the service was very nice, however I dont think there wasn't an assigned waiter so there was a different one coming to check on us sometimes. Outside and inside looks very dated and could do with a makeover. But overall good food, so would come again.“

“Their birria tacos are the best tacos i’ve ever had. They always take care of me whenever I call 15 mins before they close and I’m looking for some grub. Highly recommend.“

“We were in the area for 4 days. Cleats was the only restaurant we visited twice! Their outdoor patio is nice with a marina view. The appetizers were great. Foods were a little lackluster. The frozen cocktails were delicious. The second visit, our 4 kids were whiny, loud, and impatient. Our waitress (wish I would have got her name) was so kind and patient with us. She got mom and dad’s drinks out right away with waters for all the kids. Brought coloring pages and crayons. Took the babies binky and rinsed it off after it fell to the ground and brought it back wrapped in a napkin. She was very attentive and kind to our family. :)“

“Got blown off the lake and found Jamestown tavern to be the perfect place to get out of the wind. Enjoy delicious loaded tots and ice cold beer. Buffi the bartender was on top of her game. We will be back.“

“We were in the area for 4 days. Each day, I tried something new from their summer drink menu. Each day, I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed every sip. I visited both locations and Port Clinton seemed very busy!“

“My husband ordered the Lake Erie perch sandwich and swears it was some other fish. Size of the filet was much larger than a Lake Erie perch. After reading other reviews, we see that there were complaints about this issue recently. The menu says “Lake Erie perch sandwich”. Nothing about an up charge for Lake Erie perch.“

“It was absolutely amazing. Loved the food and the employees made you feel welcome. Friendly kind and all the above. You never be disappointed.❤️💐❤️💐❤️“

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

“From the owners to the kitchen staff to the campers/customers, everyone here makes u feel like family! The food is surprisingly very good for a small kitchen and the prices are better than most.

“Had Jamie as our sever today she’s so sweet gave great recommendations and good conversation!“

“Our meals were delicious. I chose the Fig & Prosciutto Flatbread appetizer for my meal, and my husband chose the Chicken Cordon Blue sandwich. The Peanut Butter Pie was the best my husband has ever eaten!“

“Highly recommend the hot ham & hot peach jam sandwich with the truffle fries“

“my bonus daughter and bonus son in law had their wedding there. it was extremely beautiful and I would recommend for larger wedding size..5/5“

“One of my favorite places. The food is great and so is the atmosphere. We have always had great service! The keylime pie is made there and is amazing!“
