It's a tiny old-school ice cream stand, done up in tropical/surfer garb. There was a taco truck beside it, but I'd had lunch. The menu is somewhat Latin American, but there are the usual favorites too. They had signs for a "mangolada," and though I didn't know what it was I got one. I usually go for the specialty of the house- there's often a reason for its being one. I assumed it would be something like a pina colada with mango added, but no: mango juice, lime juice, mango chunks, and hot pepper powder on the rim and throughout the drink. Not very hot, just a tingle, mostly cold and refreshing just with a little zip. Perfect on a warm spring day. Service was fast and friendly. Prices are good. Parking could be tight at busy times, so be careful. Definitely a place I'd visit a lot when in town.

We did not try any of the pastries but they looked good through the window. The service was pretty quick because only one "babe" was working the drive thru window and the walk up counter. All orders are to go unless you sit outside. I hope this business makes it through the winter months as the tourist season is over for Buckeye Lake when the water is let down for the winter. I would definitely come again!

Last month, we were nearly two and a half hours into our drive from Pittsburgh to Columbus and…read morestopped in at The Blue Heron Kitchen. Based on several other reviews, I was a bit worried at first about what was to be expected with speed and quality of service. Our server, a young lady, was excellent, and helpful with making our choices. Her manager or chef seemed like a man possessed running around the floor to assist his staff at the time and did stop by once to check in with us. As far as menu changes or decor from a recent refresh, I have no basis of comparison so couldn't care less about that. We were starving so we opted for recommendations from our server spanning all over the menu. We had everything from cheese curds and bang bang shrimp to the Reuben and patty melt, to a filet mignon with loaded baked potato as a side. In retrospect, kicking ourselves now since nobody in our party got any seafood outside of the shrimp appetizer. Doubtful we will be back east of Columbus for a while so I have no idea when we'd realistically get to try the Salmon BLT or seafood pasta. Unfortunately nobody snagged photos of the food since we were famished and it wasn't a priority. I don't eat sweets, but was told the Key Lime Pie and Banana Fosters were well worth saving room for. If you're like me, I'd opt for the OG Dockside Old Fashioned instead.

We were seated behind a barrier, and after dropping off our entrees, our server disappeared. My husband realized that he hadn't been served any condiments with his fish & chips -- no tartar sauce, lemon, vinegar or ketchup, nor slaw. He waited a few minutes to dig in, figuring someone would pop around the corner and we'd catch their eye, or our own server would return to check on us. Nope. Meanwhile, hubby had tasted a few fries, which were barely warm and a bit flabby. He started to eat his fish, sans tartar, and said it was ok, but not super hot. Fish and chips out to come out of the fryer so fresh and hot that you need to wait a few minutes to eat it so you don't burn your mouth -- but not here. This food had been sitting around a while. A few other servers had checked on tables nearish to ours, but didn't give us so much as a glance, and didn't hear our loud "Excuse me!"s. We weren't thrilled at the prospect of having to get up and go to the bar or hostess station to get help. But because both our meals had become unenjoyable thanks to waiting over ten minutes for someone to happen by, I decided I'd go seek assistance. But just then, our server happened by. We flagged her down and asked for all the things that were missing. She glanced at my husband's still pretty full plate and her eyes popped a bit, clearly realizing that the sitch was not pleasing to us. She brought the missing condiments, but damage done at that point. It had been a little exhausting waiting around and keeping our eyes peeled for a passing server. The restaurant should make it more of a point to send servers through that lower seating area on the regular. It was a pretty mediocre dinner.

Strike one in my book! The wine was enjoyable. The brisket sandwich did not have nearly enough meat- doubtful it was three ounces-for the large slices of bread so strike two! Our server was nice, my Cobb salad was tasty- once again scant on the chicken but otherwise good. Not a total strike out but close. Will go back for pizza and wine next time as it looked really good.
