We went here for a work outing and we had a great time. The outdoor tables are really nice. We were pretty loud and obnoxious and had no issues. The food was pretty good but the burger was dry. I would give everything an 8/10 except the burger was like a 5. I also had to send something back which I hate because of onions that were cooked into something I asked for without onions. Overall I would go back.

Alexis did amazing job coordinating our rehearsal dinner. Food was delicious. Aimee, our server was phenomenal. They even boxed up leftover food from buffet to take home. Many people commented on what a wonderful experience. Thank you Waterfront Tavern!

Quaint, on the water restaurant. Food was great. Server was very attentive. Atmosphere was calming and quiet. Just what we were looking for!

Had a great meal and drinks on the deck this past week. Short wait so we got a buzzer and waited inside at the bar. Seated in probably 10 minutes or less, was moderately busy. Escargot appetizer was awesome. I had a Buffalo Caesar salad which was good, and my boyfriend has the Waterfront burger with grilled pineapple and loved it. We will be back again on another nice day to sit on the deck and enjoy the view.

It's November and we were still able to comfortably sit outside on the deck and enjoy lunch. My wife had a fish sandwich and I had a Philly steak sandwich with sweet potato fries and both very good.

This place has great table locations right next to the river, and the staff are very nice. The food we picked was only par, but most of the tables were full and everyone seemed to be enjoying a beautiful dinner along the river at sunset.

Nicole and Megan provided amazing service for our over 60 people party! Our meatballs and Gianelli sausage were so delicious and all of the food was presented very well. We especially appreciated them accommodating our people who were gluten-free! It was a great place to gather and they did not rush us out! Ww would definitely do it all over again! 😊

This place has the best riverfront view you can imagine. That being said the place is a little dated from the decor to the food. Don't get me wrong it was good just not as good as it could be. Had the lobster rossoto and it was passable. Just not inspiring. Went to this location probably 50 plus years ago for fried chicken with my family. Nostalgic. Don't count em out.

This is a great little place with an amazing atmosphere. The patio is the place to be in the evening looking over the lake. They have fresh catch of the day menu, and let me recommend the walleye sandwhich. The only reason I would not give 5 stars is that the service here was a bit poor and slow. We didn't get any refills on drinks, nor did the server come back to check on us after the food was brought out. Otherwise, everything else was great!

At first started off wrong not sure if it was the color of our skin. When asked for another drink we did receive good service from the manager. The view was beautiful and food not too bad. If the treatment was better this would have made a good place to relax, eat, and chill. Afraid to go back because the color of our skin we were not treated that well. It felt odd like we did not belong.

Loved the food and cocktail but unfortunately the restaurant seemed under staffed. I had to go to the bar to place another order for a drink, the bartender seemed annoyed because she was trying to eat her lunch. Then when it came to pay the bill we just walked up to the bar and paid because the waitress seemed very overwhelmed and not able to keep up with everything.

My husband and I are always on the hunt to try new restaurants so we made the drive from Auburn to try out this restaurant. Right away, walking through the door the place was filthy and had an odd odor; almost like stale urine. Many tables indoors were not bused. We opted to eat outside and again there was filth all over the grounds, tables not cleared. The place was dead. Probably about 4 other tables in total. The tables remained dirty and the floors a wreck for the total time of our stay. The waitress was kind enough but took forever to check on us. We were there for about an hour before receiving our food. We will not be returning.

Great location and the service was great. The food was just ok, I didn’t finish my meal.

The outdoor deck area is great. However the "service " was non existent. First of all there is no one inside to great you so you wander through the place to try and find the actual restaurant area. There was a definite propane leak inside the restaurant. When you get to the back deck you are seated quickly but then ignored. We waited for 25min for someone to at least take our drink order but they never came over even for that so we left. It appeared most of their wait staff was compromised of teenagers so I am guessing that there was just a lake of general experience there but with so many other great places in the area its not worth the trip.

My wife ordered a steak salad. There was four very tiny raw pieces of pink steak and a whole lot of lettuce. I had to stop and buy her more food. She is A small woman, and it was not enough for her..

If You're Expecting good service I would stay away from this place the food is below average the service is absolutely brutally terrible I knew it when we first sat down but it was decided to follow through not sure how a waitress with that kind of attitude could ever keep a job

the only good part about trying this place is the view of the water and our waitress was nice. The spaghetti was very bland and had a strange taste, the nachos not appetizing at all and the mushroom and cheese burgers were horrible other than the temperature. and as you can see we barely ate other than the fries and the entire bill was 60. and change plus the ten dollar tip we left.
