We hosted our Christmas Party at the Boathouse on December 12th and I cannot express enough the fantastic experience!! The Manager Peter went above and beyond for us along with all the staff who worked that evening (I wish I had all their names to list them and thank them here). They were extremely accommodating and the Chef’s creations for our appetizer bar was absolutely delicious. Everyone who attended commented about the pleasant atmosphere, the friendly staff and the amazing food! I cant’ recommend them more for your special event!

Phenomenal dining experience. Pete and the team at The Boathouse were amazing. The food was fantastic. We had the seared scallops, wedge salad, and the Pickerel (Walleye) dinner. Everything was perfectly cooked and tasted absolutely spectacular. Definitely a must in the Kenora area. Thanks again for the outstanding dining experience.

A great experience for lunch enjoyed on the waterfront patio! The staff was great and there were several of them ensuring all guests were taken care of. It was a beautiful sunny day so we chose a waterside patio table. Pleasantly surprised to see that they now allow pets on the patio (last year they did not so we had to look for alternative restaurants when we had our little dog).
We shared an order of calamari, which was some of the tastiest we have had in a long time! Beautifully seasoned and tender. We also shared the mushroom flatbread which was great.

Delicious food, awesome server and a safe environment. We had lunch at the patio overlooking the lake. Awesome view!

Must-try: Calamari, Lobster soup, Sliders, Captains Catch, Captain’s Choice Burger, Surf & Turf (sirloin and lobster tail) and the newest addition to their menu, Cajun Chicken Burger.

Didn’t have room for dessert as we’re all full but we will definitely come back!

Their crew (Kaitlyn) was super accommodating and kind. We actually went twice in one day because we arrived a bit late during our first visit and had to leave soon for another activity.

On our first stop, we ordered the lobster dip since it was the quickest item to serve. We had an MS Kenora cruise booked and were heading out in about 40 minutes. The dip was tasty but honestly, I couldn’t really taste the lobster in it. We told Kaitlyn we’d come back after the cruise for an early dinner and try her recommendation which is the lobster ravioli and so we did.

My fiance ordered the ravioli along with the lobster bisque as a side and I got the lobster mac and cheese and their french onion soup. (+$4 if you get this instead of the bisque and salad if I remember correctly) The food took about 20 minutes to arrive which is pretty normal. The lobster bisque was delicious. Rich, creamy, and full of lobster flavor. The onion soup was a bit salty for my taste but still enjoyable.

Now, for the main dish. We were honestly a bit disappointed with the portion. The lobster ravioli only came with four pieces. Compared to the mac and cheese, which had a more generous serving and was cheaper, it felt underwhelming. We also couldn’t really taste the lobster in the ravioli. The mac and cheese had a small slice of lobster on top and that was the only time I actually tasted lobster in my dish. If you’re looking for a proper lobster experience, I’d recommend just going for the lobster bisque.

The atmosphere was nice especially if you’re seated by the window you get a great view of the dock. The only thing I’d suggest is maybe switching up the music what was playing during our visit didn’t really match the vibe.

Overall, it was a great experience to try local food and we’re still glad we went!

My fiancé and I are here visiting his parents at their cabin, and we decided to venture out for lunch today. The experience was excellent from start to finish.

Emma, our server, was phenomenal. She greeted us warmly when we walked onto the patio and treated us wonderfully throughout our meal. Service like that is rare these days, and we truly appreciated her attentiveness and kindness—she was absolutely lovely.

The food was just as impressive. I had the Cajun chicken sandwich with a side house salad and the lobster bisque. Everything was delicious—though I’ll admit, I’m a bit of a soup snob, so the bisque wasn’t my personal favourite. The rest of the family ordered the burgers and fries, and they raved about them. The burgers came on pretzel buns, which was such a lovely touch and made them even better.

A special shout-out to the Caesar and the bartender who crafted it—it absolutely blew my mind. He makes the rimmer in-house with fresh herbs and spices (11 ingredients!) and nailed the spice level. The garnishes were chef’s kiss. He also owns a tea and spice shop in town called Spirit Oak Tea, which we’ll be visiting tomorrow.

We left with full bellies and even fuller hearts. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re here.

Thank you to the entire team for an awesome experience!

Would recommend coming for the view and the lobster dip was amazing although the portion was small. Didn’t seem overly busy but waited 50+ min for 1 appetizer and 2 meals. Prices are a bit steep, prime rib sandwich quite dry, not sure I’d return based on my experience.

What could be better on a beautiful summer afternoon than sitting on a patio on the lake enjoying exquisite menu items. From the homemade kettle chips w onion dip to the French Onion and Lobster bisque soups to start, so good. Fish and Chips and Lobster Ravioli were tremendous. Definitely worthy of another visit the next time we’re in town.

Went by last-minute as part of our Kenora day trip and was so surprised by the excellent service, the food, and the ambiance. Our server was incredibly polite, and helped our group to find the best local spot to go swimming after. The food surprised me as the serving sizes were quite large and filling. Definitely satisfied by the fish and chips, the 2 pieces of fish were large. If I were to come back I would definitely get the 1 piece instead as it would have also been enough for one person. Also loved that the restaurant is right by the water so we could see the boats sailing while we waited for food to come. Overall, I had an excellent experience and would highly recommend this spot!

Pictures of our amazing dinner at Boathouse Lakeside Grill, Kenora, Ontario. Lobster tails were tender and tasty. Lobster Bisque was a beautiful presentation and full of flavour. Nathan was kind to give us 2 wine samples to choose from. Desert was Creme Brulee ( made in house) and turtle cheesecake. Both delish. Waitresses were friendly and fun! We enjoyed the entire experience and will return for sure. Thank you Chef Mo and Nathan for everything!
