We were so happy with this restaurant right on the water!!!! The atmosphere is fabulous at the end of a day at wineries. Staff was very kind and we got seated right away outside. (We eat dinner around 5:00 so it wasn’t terribly busy yet.). The food was delicious!!! We want to bring our adult daughters back here in a couple of months! The Mexican street corn dip was excellent!!! Yum!
Absolutely loved this place. The food was great. We got to sit on the deck and the view was absolutely amazing. Definitely recommend if you're in the area. Even if you're not, it's worth the drive.
Nice place. Great scenic deck for dining right on the lake. They often have live music on the deck too. Food was tasty and they have a large selection of alcohol. Waitress was friendly and the bathrooms were clean. Parking lot is very small though. I hear on a really nice summer day this place is packed so maybe call ahead.
The Waterfront has all the bases covered: great location offering awesome views of the lake, fun atmosphere, great service and delicious food. Our server was excellent, he really made sure our experience was good, and that's not an easy thing to find these days. Our food was delicious. Look forward to visiting again. Highly reccomend.
Outstanding place. Great testing food, beautiful view of the lake, great service. Had a wonderful time there.
Had beers after a day driving around a toon on the lake.. then came back later for the New Years in July party.. had a small gas fire pit spot outside, indoor bar with QuickDraw and a band at the outdoor bar party. Plenty of boats coming in for the party too.. Rumplemintz shot and Keuka Brewing beers in tap!! Just need a few more keuka beer on tap and it would be 6 stars.
What a perfect location on the water and great food. I did not take a picture of there garlic parm wings but hands down the best I have had in awhile. Crispy and delicious. Great food very happy we ate here for dinner.
Despite the few reviews about their food quality, we were really impressed by all of their food. The Haddock was some of the best fish I’ve ever had, seriously, order the haddock. The crab cakes were bomb as well. Our friends got the chicken Caesar and a southwest, they loved it. The mussels were really, really good. They also had a bunch of local brews on tap, which we loved. We docked our boat and were seated right away. The service was a bit slow, but nothing major. The views of the bluff were spectacular here.
