We had a very nice experience at this downtown restaurant. The lighting, music, room temperature and decor were all "just right". A wonderful waitress who resembles Julia Stiles took good care of us. The food was tasty and the wine was so good that we shared two bottles.

The Dock at the Bay

The Dock at the Bay
Overall adjusted 1.8

Despite the beautiful spring evening, the crystal blue skies and the majestic windmills we were disappointed in this restaurant. The service was slow, the food was only fair, and the prices were steep. It always surprises us when a waitress doesn't offer a dessert. There are plenty of other nice restaurants on our Lake Erie . Save your money, the Dock at the Bay is not recommended.

A restaurant of appetizers, sounds like a great idea, you are able to try a wide variety of foods. Unfortunately the servings are so small we were still hungry after trying several foods. The prices were also steep when you see how little food you get.

Adjusted overall:3.2/ 5

The friendly and casual atmosphere while serving gourmet food make this restaurant unique. The menu has so many interesting and delicious choices that it makes a revisit a must. The prices are a bit high, thus the lowering the overall adjusted rating. The stuffed banana peppers are one of their specialities and a great appetizer. Be sure however to have plenty of water on hand as they are spicy.

What a nice place this is, and we had never heard of it. The atmosphere is friendly and cozy. The food was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. The bottled wine is a little pricey- the cheapest bottle was $30. The do have certain special nights when you can bring your own bottle. Jess couldn't make it, we had a some tasty creme brulee in his honor.

We had a wonderful time at this great location. The food was excellent. The price is a little steep, but was reasonable when we used our Entertainment Card.
Unfortunately, the waiter was not at all friendly. He was all business and never cracked a smile. It but a damper on the otherwise comfortable atmosphere.
