What a find!!! I almost don't want to leave a review because this place should really remain a secret !!!!! I lived in Dunkirk for several years, but the changes that they have made to the pier and boardwalk are really unbelievable !!!! Shops & restaurants and this gem!! Let me be very clear in saying that there are maybe three tables inside; this is definitely a grab and go restaurant . However there is a huge patio with many many tables even if they are full, which is doubtful, you could certainly grab a spot on the boardwalk nearby . We happened to have a beautiful night and we have an event to go to at SUNY Fredonia so a friend recommended this place . We waited about 15 minutes to place our order. After ordering we enjoyed our drinks out on the patio while we waited for our food. I opted for an alcoholic beverage while my son had a virgin piña colada. Our number was called maybe 15 minutes later and we were served absolute deliciousness. My son ordered the California, which was a delicious crispy fish sandwich while I opted for an Asian chicken wrap. Our food was absolutely delicious. Served just right. The food temperature was perfect and the portions were ample . The service was wonderful. If I ever come upon a beautiful night again in Dunkirk, I will definitely be visiting this place !!!! read more

Got here and it's closed. The website says temporary closed. Seasonal maybe? Definitely check the website or call before going.

The food was great. It was a great day for some seafood. There are so many options of seafood and more.

Love this place. Right on the pier in Dunkirk. Cool vibe in the area, very beach-town. The food and drinks reflect that, lots of seafood and umbrella drinks. But there's a good mix of other cocktails and beers too. The owner seems really nice, she was working the kitchen along with a couple other family members, good to see, especially since it was all women- love a female owned business that's doing well and doing it right. Chicken tenders were good, not great but I think they're on the menu to placate the kids coming so fair enough. The rest of the food was GREAT. We started with calamari and it was great, came with a lemon dressing already on it which was good and didn't detract from the crispiness at all. Also had lots of battered pepper rings as well, nice balance. Combo seafood basket was solid. The shrimp were great as was the haddock - all battered on site. Fries were thin and crispy. The winner though was the California Grouper sandwich which was a daily special. It was fantastic. I could have eaten two. Came on a soft roll, with slaw and bacon and avocado and I forget what else because I devoured it so quickly. I'd go back just for that sandwich. This place is definitely worth a stop if you're ever out by the lake. read more

This place has great sandwiches and seafood. It's basically a take out restaurant because they don't have indoor seating, but it's nice sitting outside on the picnic tables. read more

Food was great. Loved it. When weather is nice, eating outside with view of lake is wonderful. Pricy, but worth it. read more

Everything good. The scampi rice bowl is my favorite. Service is always prompt. The seafood is always fresh.

Very small place. You order at the counter and eat outside. Service was great, we all enjoyed our food and the location is right next to the pier so you also get a beautiful view. read more

This place is my new official Shrimp Po Boy stop. Quaint, small (not much seating inside) and friendly. It hits every spot! read more

This food is so good! Order. Get a drink and relax on the shores of Lake Erie. My hubby is a fisherman and he said outside of what he cooks...this is the next best thing! read more

Hill crap this place Is good. Amazing clean little place near the water. Staff was awesome, and food was fantastic. I will say the calamari was a little meh compared to what I've had before, but try it yourself. Everything else we got was perfect in every way. read more

Wonderful spot to enjoy the beautiful location as well as fresh seafood! Service was above & beyond as we were well taken care of on a busy Saturday night. Check out the walking tacos, you won't be disappointed. Cannot wait to make the drive back while the weather is nice!! read more

This boardwalk area is awesome with a ton of different food and drink options & a gorgeous walk on the pier. We ate at Off The Hook, and it was perfect for fried seafood and fun lake drinks. I ordered the Island Salad with coconut shrimp and the Mermaid Water. It was absolutely delicious! I ordered the half, which was the perfect size! The drinks were okay but very fun. There's a pub right nearby and 64 on the Rocks that also have good drinks. I would definitely recommend coming here on a nice day! A lot of the seating is covered but it is all outside. It's best to go when the weather is nice. read more

A new favorite go to! This might be "Tiny" in size but don't be fooled...Kelly's food is truly off the hook! When you overhear this actually tastes like coconut from another diner and it makes you smile cause you were thinking the same thing! Relaxed atmosphere with good food on the pier in Dunkirk. read more

This is a nice place. It is located on the Dunkirk boardwalk. There are wonderful varietals. If you like seafood you will find something off their menu to enjoy. read more

The seafood was fresh and delicious! The corn on the cob was really good too. The drinks are all from mixers, so they were ok. I would check out their bottled beer selection or wine selection next time, rather than a mixed drink. read more

We just finished up the shrimp scampi rice bowl. It was great with a decent amount of shrimp and outstanding customer service.

Stopped on a road trip to Maine. 10/10 recommend. Everything we ordered to the table, Garlic Parm sandwich, Baja Fish tacos, the burrito, and island bowl was unreal. Also just recommend the boardwalk in general. Such a cute location. read more

Came mid afternoon, tidy with masks. Tried 2 specials: catfish fingers with a lemony kale slaw, and drunken shrimp tacos! - so good - soft corn tortillas. Each came with choice of mac salad, pasta salad, or chips. We didn't wanna eat too much before dinner, so we took chips. He enjoyed some cans of beer read more

Great little stop, delicious food, quick easy service and all the lake feels. We sat out front with beer and fish tacos enjoying the breeze and view of the water. read more

Service was good but "seafood boil" was disappointing, definitely not worth how expensive it was. read more

Their shrimp cocktail is almost a meal by itself! And delicious! They are closing soon for the winter, but can't wait for them to return in the spring. read more

It's a small shop on the Dunkirk marketplace. Terrific sandwiches. Stocked with a full bar if you're in the mood for a drink. Spotless looking open kitchen. read more

In a small strip mall right at the marina/lakefront on Central Ave. Fantastic seafood. I had the tuna BLT - sushi grade tuna. The haddock was crispy breaded and flaky on the inside. Excellent crab quesadilla - nearly all crab - not chintzy. One of us got the seafood burger - that was just OK. Choice of drinks - both alcoholic and non-alcoholic smoothies Prices are quite cheap for what you get - likely because it is a small place - about 6 seats around a bar and only about 3 tables inside. We took one of the picnic tables outside. They don't have a ton of choices - yet they do have a kids menu read more

Love the food, Love the location, and Love the service! Best Jerk Shrimp around! My only problem is that this is a seasonal business and it makes me sad when they close for the winter! Highly recommend. read more

Tried this place, it hadn't been open very long. The inside is quite small but very cool. A friend and I split the seafood burger and the tuna blt. Both were quite good but my fav was the tuna blt. The bacon on it was thick and outstanding. The bread and the roll were both fresh and very good. Looking forward to trying some other things here, especially the soup. read more

Amazing fish tacos (we ordered more!) and my husband really enjoyed his brisket burger. Restaurant is right on the waterfront by the pier. Great drink specials. The team that greeted us and made the food was top rate. Great spot to eat! read more

Stopped here based on reviews. Food was excellent and innovative. I had the special of the day - soft shell crab BLT on brioche-like grilled bread. Side choice was tortellini salad - not the oily salad bar kind at all; fresh basil and Parmesan. Cute bar area, or eat outside. This is one of about four restaurants along a 'boardwalk'; everyone can get what they want at the various establishments and share a table. On Lake Erie, but facing parking lot. Very pleasant stop. Bought Lake Erie 'sea glass' jewelry at the little shop next door. read more

Downloaded Yelp just so I could write about how amazing this food was. The person who took our order was extremely nice, our food came out so fast and the food was amazing. The shrimp po boy was so good, I am definitely going to make this my regular go to place when I eat out. Anyone who eats here definitely will not regret it. read more

Perfect seafood lunch outside on the boardwalk down at Lake Erie. Food was amazing and the atmosphere was delightful as always.

Great seafood & good selection of drinks to go with it. The menu is creative and different from other local restaurants. Expect a wait because they're so popular, but it's worth it I promise! read more

Cozy little bar on the pier..Eat in or on the picnic tables out front..I had shrimp tacos and a Corona..decent meal...I saw another person with a fried fish and shrimp sandwich he was raving about..next time I'll order that... read more

Nice little place to grab a bite to eat and something cool to wash it down. It is part of a small collection of shops and eateries by the marina. They call the area the boardwalk, but their "boardwalk" fronts in the parking lot. There are several other food shops so if not everyone in your group wants what they have there are options. We had the fish BLT and the special, boiled Rock Shrimp (they called them dainties or something similar). Both items were prepared well and tasted great to us. We sat outside at one of the picnic tables since the weather was good and it appears that there are few, if any, inside tables along the boardwalk. The owner came by to check on us which was nice. Recommended as a good place to grab a quick bite by the waterfront. read more

The food was delicious. I have never had such wonderful friend fish and the portions were generous and healthy, ie, I could order veggies rather than standard fries.!The drink was authentic tequila and the best margarita i have had in a Lake Erie port. The food came out quickly and iI would travel to Dunkirk just to eat there again. read more

Great ambience. Outdoor seating. Pet friendly, the right ingredients for us! I had the grouper (Cajun,). It's was very good. Came with three sides so there was plenty to eat. Located near Holiday Harbor at Chadwick Bay you couldn't as for a better location. Great sunsets too. read more

We were passing through town and stopped in based on past reviews. Absolutely delightful. Fresh as fresh can be. The sliders were excellent with a tasty basil sauce. And, I loved the tuna BLT. A friendly, happy place! read more

Cobb salad and honey Asian garlic bowl are amazing!! Great atmosphere and location by the water!! Great vibes!!!

We just heard of this place on Yelp and decided to try it. So glad we did. Photo is the empty box because we inhaled the food too fast for a pic. I had The Hook sandwich which was fried haddock and shrimp with spicy slaw on a hoagie roll. My husband got crab cake sliders. Mine was perfect with a dash of salt added. His was a good but even better with extra spicy mayo put on. Appetizer chips were freshly fried. Very friendly service, we chatted with the personable and informative bartender named Brandy. It's a small place, maybe 10 seats inside, but you can eat outside or walk onto the beach. They also told us that Thursday's in the summer are live music on the beach, tons of people and food trucks. I'm sure we'll be back. read more
