    Gin cocktail
    Danielle S.

    I had been following Shipwreck Eatery online for quite a while before I finally ended up here for lunch. I'm so glad I did! My husband got a breakfast sandwich with roasted red peppers, avocado, and cheese. I got the burrito bowl minus real chicken and with vegan chicken, sour cream and hot sauce on the side. Order at the counter and they'll bring your food out to you. There is indoor and outdoor seating (we sat outside on the covered patio). There's a gorgeous view of the St. Lawrence River and several islands. I wish I had taken a picture of the cocktail menu because I couldn't locate it anywhere online. My husband got a very tasty gin drink with ginger beer, and neither of us can remember the name. I think they need to make a bigger deal about the "build your own" salads, sandwiches, and bowls. I'm a picky eater with dietary restrictions, so many restaurants in this region are out of the question for me, but Shipwreck is perfect. I didn't even know I could customize my bowl until I saw that menu randomly on the counter. Kids will probably love to make their own creation too.

    Loaded toast, iced latte, hot vanilla latte and Banana Split Parfait

    The person that took our order was very friendly and welcoming. The food and coffee were delicious! Beautiful scenery right by the river to enjoy as you eat on the outside patio. We will definitely be back!

    I had a yummy breakfast and the coffee is amazing! 3 pancakes with strawberries and sausage - whipped cream optional.

    Stopped at this small eatery for breakfast one morning in early October - Once you order at the register, you have a choice to sit at the small bar, several tables indoors, or covered outdoor seating in the back that overlooks the water. Food was pretty good and coffee (only hot available) wasn't bad. Staff were friendly. Not a must-go spot, but not unsatisfied either!

    Great service, delicious food, wonderful river views from the deck. Hopefully you can catch breakfast or lunch here while they are open for the season

    Shipwreck eatery is no longer open. There is a new restaurant call the sunshine Café in its place. I will post a review there.

    Great food! Good vegan options also, not just an afterthought. Casual lunch place with a great patio over the water.

    Brunch review. I may have came with high expectations because so many people had mentioned this…read moreplace, and it is in such a beautiful location, but we left pretty disappointed. First off, their website is odd. Not much information, quite confusing, sometimes it won't even load (on mobile device), so if you're trying to make a reservation, call them directly. Location, beautiful, along the river, great outdoor seating. I'm sure dinner and sunset is stunning. Good, it was okay. We ordered kids breakfast, huevos rancheros skillet thing, chicken and waffles, biscuit and gravy, and the whisky flight. The huevos ranchero was good, nothing to rave over but good. The chicken and waffles didn't come with syrup at first, I'm sure it was a mistake. The biscuit and gravy... looked amazing, but the biscuits were hard. Like rock hard, and even after sitting in the gravy, no moisture would come back. Haha Service... the lady was so sweet, but she kept forgetting us, she would place hot things right in front of the baby where she would easily grab it. She had a hard time splitting the bill. Ultimately we had to ask another waitress for water refill and splitting our bill. Maybe we will go back... but not in a rush.

    We had reservations 30 minutes before their last available reservations: 8pm on a Saturday, and…read morestreet parking was easy to find. We were tucked in a corner with a view of the water (though the sun had already set). The interior felt elegant, though they do not have a dress code. Food took a while but the waitress apologized and explained why which I was grateful for (there was a huge party right before us). Throughout, our waitress was attentive, but not overbearing Buffalo shrimp - this was delicious. It comes with only 4, but it is the perfect appetizer. Pomodoro - the pasta was cooked perfectly but I found the flavor to be a bit underwhelming. Portion size was satisfactory. Chicken Marsala - both pasta and chicken was cooked perfectly, and it was much more flavorful than the pomodoro. Mushrooms were delicious. Chicken wasn't seasoned outside of the sauce. Broccolini - both I and my partner got a side of brocolini, mine came out with three and hers came out with one. Not sure what happened there, but we paid the same amount. We ordered a Caesar salad that we never received. Tirimisu - this was stellar. I was already full, but I definitely overate just so I could finish off the dessert. Overall, the experience was quite plesant, and despite some smaller hiccups I would definitely recommend this place. Not sure I myself would return, but that has more to do with the fact that I'm not the biggest fan of Italian cuisine in general.

    The food was very good. The location is absolutely stellar!…read more We made a reservation online for our anniversary, and we were really excited to go out. We get there and the lady who seats you wasn't very friendly, and then she wanted to seat us straight in the sun when there was a spot in the shade open so I asked to be seated in there. This seemed to annoy the young lady. Our waitress never introduced herself, and we seemed to be bothering her the entire time by just sitting there. We never asked for a refill, any special accommodations to our food. We were polite, said yes ma'am, please and thank you. She never once refilled our drinks, seemed to be annoyed when she offered us dessert and we asked what they had. She did hand the table next to us free cannolis for their anniversary . (We're not upset we didn't get anything free... we just wanted a pleasant experience.) She only became polite when it came time for the bill since she probably wanted a nice tip. Maybe if the service wasn't better, we'd be back. I'm honestly disappointed in the whole experience.

    Our party of eight made reservations, but when we arrived the restaurant was nearly empty. Looking…read moreback, that probably should have been our first clue. Things went downhill from there. The appetizer we originally ordered wasn't available, so we ordered the crab dip. Unfortunately, it contained very little crab, had a thick, paste-like texture, and was so unappetizing that we barely touched it. The entrees were even more disappointing. Two chicken dishes were literally inedible due to their taste, appearance, and poor preparation. The pork chops were edible but very dry, and they weren't served with the side dish described on the menu. The steak was also overcooked, dry, lacking flavor, and also came with the wrong side dish. What made the experience even more disappointing was the complete lack of attention from management. With multiple meals left untouched or barely eaten, you would expect a manager to stop by the table, ask about the experience, or make an effort to address the obvious problems. That never happened. The one bright spot of the evening was our server, who was absolutely outstanding. She was attentive, friendly, professional, and did everything she could to make the best of a very disappointing dining experience. She deserves recognition because the poor food and lack of management were not a reflection of her excellent service. In an effort of some compensation we were given a couple plates of chocolate covered cherries and cream that were the best part of the entire meal. Too little too late. I Do Not Recommend This Restaurant

    Returned to the Seaway Grille for breakfast and they were amazing, again…read more Maggie, our Server, did a fabulous job at keeping us comfortable and served delicious food with a smile. We ordered the following: 1,000 Island Omelet (ham, onion, bell pepper, cheddar cheese, and tomatoes). The omelet was accompanied by perfectly seasoned potatoes, strawberries, and rye roast. The other order was the Harbor Breakfast (2 sunny side up eggs, turkey sausage, potatoes, English muffins, and strawberry). Both of these selections were flavorful, filling, and cooked to perfection. I cannot recommend the Seaway Grille enough and am so glad that it's conveniently located within the 1,000 Islands Harbor Hotel.
