Fine little gem! The food was fantastic (took a little while like good bbq should) and the servers were fantastic. Great location! We got the Oink Fest platter with turkey, keilbasa and brisket. Everything was delicious!

Don’t waste your money or time! The food was beyond terrible, service was slow and the place smells musty and old. Our fountain drinks were watered down. We ordered half a rack of ribs, burnt ends quesadilla with sides of cowboy caviar, potato salad and Mac and cheese. The ribs were so burnt and charred, all you could taste was lighter fluid. Beyond horrible. We should have known when the table behind us complained and they didn’t charge the guest. Cowboy caviar in the description says (all the meats with bbq beans)…that was a joke. The beans tasted like they were straight out of the can and not a single scrap of meat to be found. The quesadilla was more like shredded burnt brisket…not true burnt ends at all. The sauce tasted like ketchup not bbq. The menu says it comes with sour cream and peach salsa…hi had to ask for this and the salsa was definitely not peach and tasted like it was from a bottle. Potato salad had no taste. They ran out of Mac and cheese and had to make more…noodles were hard and sauce tasted like box Valletta. When our server came back and asked if we wanted a box for the left overs, I kindly told her no. She asked if everything tasted ok, I kindly said not at all and she asked if I wanted to speak to the manager. I said sure, I’d be happy too. My husband got up to use the restroom. I heard the waitress say, it’s that table right there, her husband went to the rest room. The manager was so rude, disrespectful and incompetent that he didn’t even have the audacity to come to the table and ask what was wrong. Sounds pretty useless and incapable to me. He has not customer service, let alone any management skills. The waitress told me, I’m sorry he didn’t want to come out. She first took off the ribs platter and then she took off the sides. We still had to pay for the quesadilla. They need new cooks and definitely new management. The only positive was the location on the water and our waitress Julia who just started.

The outdoors area was really nice: beachfront property with games and a fire pit. There are many outside tables and a bar inside and outside. We got a meal combo for two. It came with the best sweet corn on the cob. We got shredded chicken and shredded pork. The house sauce on the tables is very good. The sweet potatoes are good. The slaw is more creamy than sweet. The corn bread was good. This was a nice stop for us as we were driving through, but you could probably make a night of it or at least stop for an hour and enjoy the beach. Our waiter was really nice and attentive. We were there at 12:30 pm right after they opened.

Visiting there area for the first time on our 15th wedding anniversary.
We chose to go here for our evening diner since my wife has been craving some BBQ.
The food we got was just ok/good. Nothing amazing. I took pictures below.
I got the “My Boy Blue” burger which was tasty at times but was a little over cooked in comparison to what I usually like. The Texas toast bun was also not flattering with the combination of a tougher than usual burger. I was definitely not floored by the flavor. I will rate that burger maybe a 6/10. The burgers comes with kettle chips and fries are added as extra. My wife got the pulled pork which had just ok flavor but could have been seasoned more. The food is a bit on the pricey side for what you get.
I could tell the restaurant is currently under some distress. There really weren’t many visitors even at peak dinner time, the firepit outside does not look like it had been cleaned out for quite some time. There was a huge pile of old ash in the middle which made me wonder about the rest of the restaurants upkeep. The owners or management were really overworking one poor waitress who was overseeing the indoor and outdoor dining areas. Luckily we were only one of two couples in the entire indoor dining. I felt bad for her. This poor girl seems like she gets such a hard time from patrons due to the shortcomings of the restaurant and management that she is more ready to apologize for any issues than potentially receive a compliment. I gave her an extra good tip because she was working harder than anyone else and trying to do the best she could. She would be the reason I do not rate the restaurant with fewer stars.
Felt strange there were not more people at the restaurant which was another red flag for me. That place should be packed considering location right off lake Erie they are also right next to a boating/fishing peer where people constantly go in and out of so you can tell somethingis just not quite right. Also looking at the other Google reviews there seems to be a rising trend of disagreeable comments over the last couple of years. Things at this restaurant definitely seem disorganized.
Also they seemed desperate to give us more food due to the fact that they could not provide my wife with corn on the cob with her meal. They also brought us Mac and cheese which was very good and the cowboy caviar as the owner seemed desperate for us to try it. It was not all that great. There was baked beans with what seemed to be some shreds of pulled pork in with it. They should have some chunks of brisket in with this and actually season the food and it would certainly give it an upgrade.
They do have a great location but the food doesn’t match. Feels disjointed for these two things not to come together.

We stopped by to pick up food since it was near our bed and breakfast. The place is wonderful and has a great outdoor atmosphere. Think it would have been better if we just stopped for a drink. So after waiting 30 minutes for our meal the ribs had good flavor but were cold and tough. They forgot half our sides so we had to go back.

What a cool place! We stopped here on our drive from Niagara Falls to Ohio, and it was such a nice surprise. It’s right on the lake, so you can walk out to the beach while waiting on your food. The BBQ was REALLY good. I’m from NC, and we know bbq, so I wasn’t expecting to find bbq that good in New York.

The worst meal we have ever had that was $85. The chicken and waffles had an atrocious flavor profile. The My Boy Blue burger had this horrific fishy flavor. We also got the nachos and added chicken that had no flavor, for a whopping $19. My guy typically finishes everything; he ate half the burger, and I ate barely half of my sandwich—he took a bite. The waitress never asked if we liked our meals, never came back after delivery and never asked if we wanted to-gos which we would have told her no and how awful the meal was. They were however Pit friendly and accommodating with our dog.

This restaurant is at great location with open space back end facing towards beach. While food was average and service was decent. If you are ordering burgers my suggestion will be update the kettle chips with fries. Overall nice place to stop by. Cheers.

Some of the best deep fried pickles I’ve ever had anywhere. My ribs were super dry. My brisket was fat look like tiny strips of bacon. And was gray. Brisket quesadilla the brisket inside was super super dry. Our waitress was super nice. Beautiful building beautiful place.. I would like to go back and try it again. But we ended up paying 100 dollars. And felt very letdown between what we paid and what we got.
