Boblo Island Beach House Restaurant — Restaurant in Amherstburg

Very disappointing experience. I was looking forward to trying this restaurant for years. We made reservations for 7 guests at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon. It was not overly busy... maybe 40% of capacity. We stood at the entrance for 15 min and were not greeted. The young bus girl tried to assemble a table for us after we asked her twice. We ended up finding our own table. Sat there another 30 minutes and no one tended to us. We got our own menus. One young male waiter appeared to be doing 90% of the work alone. We asked him why no one was helping him and he said he thought they were going home... There were other staff (3 other female servers and a bartender) on hand but they were not helping him for the majority of our visit. When he was finally able to serve us he did a decent job and the food was ok, not great. The restaurant was dirty, broken glass on the patio, bees swarming. If there had been another option on this island we would have left. What a missed opportunity the management and owners have running this place this way. I feel bad for the residents of the island that this is their sole restaurant. The icing on the cake came about 2 hours into our time at Boblo Beach House, an older curly haired blondish staff member came over to confirm that we were the reservation for 7 guests at 3pm. I usually do not complain but this was a far trek for us and our reason for...

Very disappointed with the limited menu. Hot dogs, nachos, chicken tenders no burgers and so cold sandwiches etc. on my first visit July 1st, Canada Day. I made a reservation several weeks ago online. I didn't get a response back. Luckily, we were seated right away without a reservation. However, I was asked by the hostess how long we were going to stay, because she said we are going to get very busy soon. (For the people with a reservation.) The atmosphere was very nice and the live music was too. But we felt rushed to leave after eating our meal because our table was reserved for someone with a reservation. Also when I asked if there was another menu our server said no, they only had the printed limited menu because of the holiday. We understood that until we overheard other tables around us ordering from a special menu. The wait staff knew them by name. We ate lunch from a paper basket with tissue but china was being handled out at another table. So bottom line, I felt that the local community residents got special privileges over any other paying guests and our dining experience was very ...

Horrible horrible place! Food was horrible and staff were rude! Did not bring us any silverware or napkins asked for ketchup so my kids could eat their fries and it took them no joke 20 minutes! And when the kid brought us the ketchup he knocked over my husbands beer all over my sons burger and fries he said sorry and walked away I had to call him back and say my sons plate is full of beer so please get us another one! Which I do not blame the young boy who was serving us the manger or whoever she was, was yelling at this kid so he was probably nervous as heck! I would have put up an argument and asked for some type of compensation but I paid my bill and tipped just because I felt so bad for the young man! Anyway aside from all of that the food was NOT good at all! Small choice of food and what we did get was cold and horrible! My kids buns to their burgers were hard as a rock! My chicken pita was so dry I could not even eat it! I would NOT recommend this place nor will I ever step foot in...
