The staff, including the owner, are all super friendly. We sat on the patio and were lucky to catch live entertainment by Jan/Blackhat, who had an excellent, soft voice and played great tunes on his guitar--very enjoyable. We were pleasantly surprised by a complimentary warm and toasty pita with excellent hummus, reminding us of how restaurants used to be. It was a delightful touch. I ordered the beef and lamb patties, which came with long-grain rice, roasted carrots, broccoli florets, and two sauces--tzatziki and a carrot/pepper spread. The patties were very tender and the dish was excellent. It also came with a delicious Greek salad. My wife had the vegetable moussaka, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience that we would highly recommend. Cheers

Chicken was dry but the rest of the bowl was good and flavorful. We also ordered the Tuna Poke Bowl: marinated ahi tuna, coconut rice, mango, sesame edamame, cucumber, avocado, pickled carrots, sliced radish, sesame seeds, green onion, sriracha aioli. I got it decompressed as I have dietary restrictions. Unfortunately the ingredients didn't seem fresh. Mango mushy, green onions brown, cucumbers dried up, carrots brown. We wanted refills on our beverages, but server was busy. By the time drinks were refilled and another pint was brought, we were done with our food. We still managed to tip the server. We were really hungry and disappointed with their food as we picked this place out of many since their Google reviews seemed high. They offered to remake our meals but we had to go.

Perfectly good place to park it in Port Colborne. We were…read morethere to visit my friend who lives in the area, and as well I had been to this restaurant when visiting my ex who was on a bicycle trip in the area a few years prior. The best part is the view of the canal from the patio or from the front of the restaurant. When a boat goes by the lift bridge goes up, it is something very neat to see. There is also an Airbnb upstairs so you can have dinner here and head up to your room, all without losing that cool view.

We stayed in suite 2 which is above the restaurant. This hotel is not handicap accessible due to very steep staircase. There's free parking in the back of the restaurant. The suite is very spacious. There is a full kitchen with range, microwave and refrigerator. There are pots, pans, plates, mugs and cutlery if you plan to cook. The drip coffee maker was broken and unfortunately we found out the hard way when the coffee was not dripping into the coffee carafe. We also encountered an issue with the wall outlet in the kitchen. We could not reset the fuse. There are 2 tvs one 50 inch in the main room and a small 32 inch in the separate bedroom. There's a pull out sofabed for additional sleeping space. The decor in the room is more rustic and farmhouse feel. There's portable air conditioner that keeps the suite cool. We tried the restaurant downstairs. The fish n chips were inconsistent. Some of my guests said the fish was not fried properly. I didn't notice any issue with mine. They use basa instead of haddock or halibut. The calamari was ok. The crab rangoon was good. My nephew ordered the steak special of the day. He cleaned the plate so I guess it was good. The Mongolian beef bowl was better than expected for a pub restaurant. Overall, our stay was comfortable and we liked the location right by the canal and beautiful views of cruise ships crossing the canal. If you are looking for a family size suite then definitely give this place a look.

My family always looks forward to going to Debb's when we visit Dunnville as part of our camping trip to Ontario, so we highly recommend Debb's.

Welp, we are so sorry to have misjudged you Debbie because holy smokes, that was a damn good meal.

We ordered a carafe of house wine and were pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I ordered the French onion soup and she had the soup of the day which was Minestrone. Both were very good. I thought we'd splurge and get the Brie appetizer which was unbelievable. I'm not generally a fan of Brie but this was served with garlic bread drizzled eithbalsamic and the Brie was cooked in a cast iron bowl with roasted cherry tomatoes, spices and oil. Yum! I ordered the Ragu and she had the chicken piccata. Both were excellent ! This will definitely be on our summer restaurant rotation in the future!

Service from the bartender was great. He offered up some suggestions, which I needed because they have a large menu loaded with so many appetizing and amazing looking options. I started with their potstickers... They came out with a hard, fried shell and the dipping sauce went nicely with them. Enough to share, or even enough to enjoy and still have room for an entrée. My main dish was their Chicken & Waffle. This isn't some ordinary chicken and waffle, it's definitely an amped up version, made with unique and interesting ingredients, culminating in great flavors! The chicken was so large and very tender - it was amazing! The bacon and sauce on top went with it nicely, and the chive waffle was great with it! Each bite was definitely amazing! This was a great experience, I can see why they have so many reviews and such high stars, those are well-deserved stars!! Definitely recommend stopping in here!

The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, which made it even more enjoyable. I ordered fried calamari along with single chicken wings tossed in an Asian sweet and spicy sauce--both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. The combination of crispy textures and bold flavors really stood out. What made the experience even better was the service. Our server was amazing--attentive, friendly, and truly great at her job. She made us feel welcome from the start. I always enjoy trying new places, and this visit did not disappoint. If you're looking for an American restaurant near Niagara Falls, this is definitely worth trying. We ended the meal with a delicious dessert,which was the perfect sweet finish to a great experience.
