The fish tacos are absolutely fantastic. The cheeseburgers are excellent, and the beer-battered fries are wonderfully tasty. There's a beautiful view of the lake, and the staff is incredibly friendly, providing good service as well. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Since the grill had only just been turned on, we expected to wait a while for our meals. To our surprise, all of our orders arrived within 10 minutes! From the burgers to the chicken strips, everything was delicious, especially the beer-battered fries. A big thanks to Dan for establishing such a great bar! We will definitely be back.

Delicious food, especially the fish tacos on special and the amazing chicken sandwich! The atmosphere by the water is really enjoyable, with great music playing. It's also conveniently close to home!

I had the Blue Sky burger and it was delicious. I also tried the Boom Boom Shrimp which was also great. The waitress and other staff were friendly. They were very busy for a Monday night but they did check on us a few times.
