Due to the pandemic, we dined outside. We particularly liked the Puppy Porch as we had a puppy with us. We were pleasantly surprised to see that much thought went into this area of the restaurant. There were water bowls set out, yoga mats for them to lay on, and our puppy was greeted with a milk bone. The food was delicious and the wait staff was attentive. We will definitely be going back there more frequently.

For raw onion. Then we asked for boxes and she was going to leave them on the table next to ours. I serve myself and this place had bad service!

They were also out of corn beef for Reuben sandwichlast visit and yesterday they were out of avocados when I ordered a wrap.. A supplement currently pieces of fried onion that a very greasy on top of french fries so you get very little french fries a lot of the grease onions that you don't order and I do not recall telling you that on the menu . I had purchased a total of 4 restaurant coupons for this restaurant and I don't know if I would go back after using them . The first time I visited the restaurant was on a Monday and they said they were out of many items cause of the weekend the second time it was a Thursday and they were also out of items. Maybe in the next time I try I might be able to get my Italian beef on sourdough bread

Great all you can eat fish fry. Didn't have to wait long to get more fish - including unlimited coleslaw and fries. Wait staff was very friendly.

My fish was great, My spouse thought the Rueben was great. The French fries had a nice crunch to them and we both thought the string onions were good tasting.

Great atmosphere and food was great! We didn't wait more than 15 min. for our meal which was a pleasant surprise. The server was also acting as bartender. Very efficient, But she was not very friendly. Had the feeling she didn't really want to be there! Not sure she ever discovered "Service with a smile" in training!

Waitress assured us the bees weren't bad in a certain section of the outside dining. Two of us were stung. They need to put sugar traps outside of the eating area.

The grandchildren loved to feed the ducks and fish the popcorn we could finish eating. The day was wonderful dining outside on the waterfront. The food was terrific and enough leftovers for 2 more meals! The servers were very pleasant.

Food was good but way to expensive. $12.00 for a sandwich in McHenry. This place is not a $12.00 sandwich kind of place.

Thought the food was a little expensive for the amount you get. Got the fried cod and shrimp and for $12 or so only had one small piece of cod and 6 small shrimp. Fries were good. Expected more.
