We stopped here randomly tonight for dinner, around 5pm. We were seated right away. Staff were attentive and helpful. Our son with food allergies was with us but had already eaten dinner, they gave him a kids water and a coloring page and the waitress was great interacting with him. I had the Reuben, except I had them use chicken instead of corned beef, divine! My husband had the fish and chips and said it was delicious, nice and flaky. Fries were so good! We shared the double chocolate cake for dessert, and that was good, but not the best cake I’ve ever had. They have specialty lemonades that are tart and crisp and MUCH better than standard fountain lemonade. It was clean and tidy, nice atmosphere.
Note: they have well water.
Would go back again any day!

The food was quite good, the beer was cold, and the service was top notch—friendly, fast, and attentive. A great spot to relax and enjoy a meal with a view. Would definitely come back!

Have dined here twice, both times have been excellent. Both times were on a Saturday at prime dinner time, even with no reservations we were sat down and waited on immediately. The food, service and atmosphere is great. The house special old fashioneds are top notch as well.

Went to the Waterfront for lunch, but at an odd time (on a Sunday at 3:15 ish) and we got seated right away. Not crowded, a few tables filled and some folks at the bar. Their menu is varied, from salads, sandwiches and burgers to more creative entrees. Hubby ordered the walleye sandwich plate with fries and I ordered a burger w/ bacon & avocado with a side of homemade chips. Everything was very good, the walleye was perfectly done with the French roll toasted crisply. My burger was good as well (it could have used a bit more avocado) and the chips were crunchy & totally awesome. Both the hostess and server were quite friendly and helpful. (As an aside, the dining room was very cold.)

We went here for Friday Fish Fry (FFF) & really enjoyed the meal. Seated quickly, prompt, friendly service, with good beer selections. The food was really good, French Fries top-notch, and we really enjoyed the Cheese Curds. Baked fish was tasty & served in melted butter. One of the best FFFs so far.

2026/02/01. Just had the rueben. Very underwhelming. Meat not cooked thoroughly, tough-chewy, cut with grain. Half of the meat was fat. Flavorless overall. Wife said, “gross!”.
Fries and slaw were really good. Won’t order the sandwhich again.

Our server, Kayla, was great! A real sweetheart. We’ve eaten the Waterfront many times, especially for Friday fish fry, and the food and service have always been great! My hubby got the potato, ham & leek soup and a cod sandwich. The soup was really delicious and was gone in a flash The sandwich had 4 chunks of fried cod on it. We were very surprised at the size of it. I got a burger with provolone cheese and was happy that they had gluten-free buns. That was the only gluten-free choice they did have for bread. They had salads and other items that didn’t contain gluten.

A great stop for food if you’re in the Delavan area. The dining room was a quiet and pleasant with upbeat music playing for a Saturday night. Service was attentive and friendly. We had the Special Prime Rib and 8 oz. Tenderloin that both came out a perfect medium-rare as we ordered . Our server Carter was an excellent representation of what customer service standards should be for a place of business. Will definitely be back!

Carter and staff were really friendly, great personality and showed they care about people. They take pride in their services and establishment. The atmosphere is a wonderful vibe with a beautiful and clean setup! The food was so delicious! My recommendations are the Aloha Burger, battered fries, and Monday taco special.

The service and food was good, but I subtracted 1 star because the menu was a bit lacking, could use some more premium fare. I would say the majority of the selection was bar quality. That said, I did enjoy the burger, full of flavor and I like having the bun Toasted and glazed the way it was served.
