Edit: I changed this to 5 stars. We have been back and we LOVED it. My broiled scallops were perfect and plentiful. PajamaGal had some delicious wings and a salad.
There was a live group playing so we sat near the entrance where we could talk.
After dinner when the dining crowd had thinned a bit, when the waitstaff discovered one of our foursome was a previous MLB pitcher, signed right out of Fair Haven High School, our table was surrounded with autograph seekers! Even the owner came out of the kitchen to greet us.
Its important to note that the meals and service were very good BEFORE our celebrity was known.
Go there! Try it for yourself. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

I really want to like the “Ice House”. I remember when Jack started it. I believe he is in the lineage if the owners, AND we do need a “better than average” restaurant for the locals as well as the vacationers.
You’all need to make a better first impression. Vacationers may only give you 1 chance. After my first visit (sampling only 2 dishes), my first impression is, “Get a chef”.
We ordered the Shrimp Scampi and the Marsala Chicken. The shrimp, pasta, and veggies were prepared beautifully.
The marsala sauce was “thin” and lacked robust flavor. The chicken breast was attached to bones, and was not a uniform paillard, and a tad overcooked.
The Scampi was very good, but the sauce was thin and lacking depth.
Maybe it was an off night, it’s obvious that staff is needed, but service was o.k. We’ll be back; I want to try the clams.

So far my family and I have been really happy with the food here. I’m really glad they didn’t try to compete with Roxie’s or some of the other local places with the “hand cut fries.” That niche is already filled. Glad that they have something different. Lobster rolls (with REAL lobster) are great! Pulled pork also excellent! My husband said “the Tommer” was really good, but a lot. And honestly, I think the price (for such good quality) is better than some of the other local places (at least for the stuff we’ve tried.) P.S. I was impressed that the toppings on the loaded fries went all the way through, not just a glob on top.

Excellent service from my server Matt. Management polite and helpful. The host gave options to be seated near music, at the bar, or in a quieter section. The food was fantastic and the chocolate lava cake for desert was so good. Very chocolatey. I visited in winter and it is a bit chilly in the building so wear a jacket.

This place opened up a few years ago with a bang but this year hasn’t even come close to the previous two seasons. I’m not sure what’s going on but the outside of the restaurant and snack bar are in shambles, old faded decorations, empty flower beds, overgrown weeds. I’ve visited the snack bar twice this summer and both times the food tasted like it was reheated in a bowl of grease. The only thing redeeming about this place right now is it’s still the only place in the area that has straight up vanilla/chocolate twist soft serve (and it’s really good ice cream).

Very overpriced “freezer food”. The French fries are the frozen kind (which were barely warm”, as well as the mozzarella sticks and jalapeño poppers. The fried haddock sandwich was OK but didn’t seem cooked all of the way. Best part of the meal was the bun the sandwich was served on. Will not be going back.

Definitely not worth the price. I went with my husband and parents and my rice was mushy, you could tell the vegetables were microwaved and not cooked properly, and the prime rib was dry. They forgot my husband’s lettuce for his burger and overcooked it. Not good at all, we will never go back.

From the time we entered the restaurant we started smiling. We were a party of 10 that turned into a party of 14! They handled it with ease. With live music and terrific food and drinks it made a birthday celebration safe and fun. Thank you all!! 12/3/21.

We have had great experiences with both their Snack Bar and new dine in restaurant. Ice cream portions are amazing, and theybare really great when you ask them to cut back even on the kiddy size to prevent it from covering the toddler . The dine in restaurant has great service, super cozy atmosphere, portions are great, prices are on point, and very worth it.

Excellent food. Excellent service. Cheese steak is exceptional. Had a ton of fun and very much enjoyed our lunch. If you need some great food, great drinks, and great service Ice House will meet your needs.
