The gluten-free menu had more choices than I thought. But that beef cheek raviolo was the star. The pasta was tender, the filling rich and savory. The Nutella mousse was a solid finish, not too sweet.

Been coming here for years. Their wine list is solid, and they keep it that way. It&#39;s the main reason I keep coming back.

The beer-battered cod was my Friday treat. The breading was so light and crispy, which I really appreciate. The fish itself was fresh and flaky. The tartar sauce had a nice tang to it, not too heavy. A solid, satisfying choice for a casual meal.

The Friday night ritual is strong here. It&#39;s that kind of place where the staff remembers your usual order. Just a cozy, reliable spot in the week.

Date night special is a steal - $50 for two entrees, an app, dessert, and a bottle of wine. The tiramisu was fantastic, honestly one of the best. Solid deal.

The owners are so nice! They gave our big group a private room, which was a really nice touch. Felt like we had the place to ourselves, and the staff checked on us just the right amount. Made the dinner feel a bit more special.

The outdoor seating right by the water is really nice. It&#39;s a super chill spot, just the right kind of relaxed vibe for a casual meal. My food came out hot, which was a plus.

We were a big group, and the service handled us well. The menu had solid options, and the portions were generous for what we paid. My only note is that their wine list felt a bit limited for a place with this vibe.

Lunch on the upper deck with the water view was lovely. The fried zucchini starter was tasty, and the walleye (today&#39;s fresh catch) was cooked just right. Service was professional and on point. A nice, solid meal.

Convenient downtown spot with a nice view. Appreciated the gluten-free options on the kids&#39; menu for our family breakfast.

Been coming here for years, and the Waterfront Salad is always a solid choice. Big portions, tastes good every time.

Server was friendly and attentive, really made the meal enjoyable. Been coming here for years, and the service is always solid.

Came for a quiet dinner. The tiramisu they brought out was a nice touch, light and not too sweet. Their wine list had a few interesting Italian reds by the glass. Service was attentive without being overbearing.

Fun spot with a cool nautical theme. Had the fish and chips, the batter was crispy and the fish inside was really moist. Perfect for a casual dinner with friends.

The margarita was so good we ordered another round. The chips and salsa are addictive, and my friend&#39;s enchiladas looked incredible. Our server was really chill about us hanging out and chatting for a while after we finished eating. A solid spot for a casual dinner with friends.

My husband&#39;s filet was so juicy and cooked perfectly. The drinks were good too. The space itself is really nice - high ceilings and comfortable booths, not too loud for a weeknight. We&#39;ll be back to try more.

Happy hour at the bar is the move. Half-off those prepared oysters. Got the Cajun style, they were plump and had a good kick. For the price, you really can&#39;t beat it. That&#39;s where the value is.

That Italian sausage and pepper appetizer is the real deal. Sausage had a great snap, peppers were sweet and soft. You can tell it&#39;s a family recipe. Just wish there was a bit more of it on the plate.

The small plates were the star. Each one felt thoughtful, like the seared scallops with that crispy edge. The Eruption red blend paired nicely. Service was on point too &ndash; the manager brought back a credit card I dropped. A solid spot for a relaxed dinner.

Our server Clarissa was so attentive, she really made our evening special.

Great spot for gluten-free. The charcuterie board was a standout, especially the cheeses. Filet was cooked just right.

They go all out with holiday decorations here. The Halloween setup was really something, felt like a proper haunted house. Christmas lights are nice too. It&#39;s a fun spot if you&#39;re looking for that seasonal vibe.

The roasted turkey and brussels sprout hash was spot on. The multigrain toast with that local strawberry jam was a nice touch. I paired it with a glass of their house Pinot Noir&mdash;it cut through the richness just right. A solid, cozy meal.

The Cajun shrimp tacos were solid, but adding the white barbecue sauce is a must. My friends and I all agreed on that.

Carrie at the bar is the best. She remembered my name and my usual order from last time, which was a nice touch. Her friendly vibe is a huge reason we choose this spot over others nearby. Makes the whole visit better.

Loved the Korean beef tacos! The ingredients tasted so fresh. Good to have options beyond sushi.

Great spot for a quick party. Food was solid, and they kept things moving. Got my plate fast and the whole thing wrapped up on time. Exactly what you need when you&#39;re just trying to get people fed and out the door.

The TVs are at a good volume here, not blasting like some places. You can actually hear your friends and follow the game. It&#39;s a comfortable spot to grab a beer and watch.
