    If you are on the bay - GO HERE!!! The walleye bites are to die for. I'm not kidding!! Get them. The bartender is great. Wonderful service and nice pours. The atmosphere is nice. It's quiet and a little dark inside. A nice break from the sun. We would have walked by this place and never come inside but someone told us to stop so we did. Now we come for the Walleye bites anytime we are here

    From the moment we entered the restaurant, the customer service was excellent, and the food was amazing. I also enjoyed the ambiance of the place, especially being able to look outside at the ocean as we enjoyed our dinner. Great place to relax and eat a good meal!

    Walleye was very good. Service good but disappointed the waiter didn't tell us the specials. I would have definitely gotten the stuffed peppers. Cool atmosphere. The carrots cake yummy.

    This restaurant is a classic. Every year when we go to the island it's a staple to get the perch sandwich. The perch is always flaky and perfectly thin breaded. This time we also tried the onion rings and the walleye nuggets and both were amazing. The onion rings were breaded thick and were served with a honey mustard type of sauce. The walleye nuggets had a Cajun seasoning on them, with a thin breading. The place is a little on the pricey side, but worth every penny. One of the best restaurants in the area for walleye/perch.

We were looking…read morefor good cocktails and a good, hearty dinner - that is exactly what we found here at The Boardwalk! We all ordered cocktails that came with quick service and were delicious! My friend tried the Crab Cake Sandwich and loved every bit of it. I ordered the Simple Cheeseburger, and although it was a typical cheeseburger (with added bacon), it was cooked perfectly and was as juicy as a cheeseburger could get! The fries on the side were great too. We left there being very happy with our choice. This is a great spot on the Boardwalk if you ever visit Put-in-Bay!!!

When we walked in we were a bit confused as there were multiple bars and food areas. The bathrooms were on the walkway leading to the restaurant. They were small and pretty filthy. One toilet one broken and filled with waste, and the other had toilet paper all over the stall. We were visiting with our dog and discovered, after walking upstairs, that dogs are not allowed on the upper deck. They are allowed on the lower and back portions of the area. We ended up at the seafood bar on the main level. Being from Maryland we're use to seafood with a lot more flavor and seasoning to it. This was very expensive for bland seafood. We also ordered a frozen lobster bisque to-go. (The plastic containers were flimsy and didn't make it back to the mainland before it cracked down the whole side.) If we go to the island again this will be a spot to skip.

First, the "manager" would not allow us to put the umbrellas down at our table of 7 after the sun had gone down, ok no big deal... but here is where it went down the hill. We ordered (2) Spinach Artichoke Dip appetizers and this was nothing more than cold spinach & artichoke soup that should have been introduced to an oven or at the very least... a microwave. We ordered 7 dinners ranging from Broiled Salmon, Pasta Alfredo, Chicken Piccata and New York Strip. Four of our meals were served and then 2 of our meals were served 20 minutes later and the last meal was served 10 minutes after that. I always try to be considerate especially during these times of staff shortages, supply chain issues, etc., but this server just didn't know the menu and I just didn't feel that the manager was very accommodating with the seating. I am not giving them a lower rating because the Salmon and NY Strip was actually pretty good and they did make an adjustment on my guest check. However, I would prefer to have a good experience and pay full price. I believe that this restaurant has what it takes to be a much better venue, however, it will be a long time before I try this restaurant again. There are so many other fine dining options in Wyandotte to settle for average or below average.
