We’ve had a wonderful culinary experience at Waterfront Restaurant. If you’re seated outside you’re practically on the water, looking over the harbor and lake Michigan. The service was exceptional and the food was very good. We had grilled white fish fillet, halibut fillet, and fish and chips, as well as a burrata salad with prosciutto, arugula, and cantaloupe. The salad was amazing and the fish dishes were very good. We skipped dessert – there weren’t many options, though the carrot cake looked good 🙂

While still casual, this is one of the few restaurants in Door County where you’ll need to remove your hat to dine. A nice change. My wife and I both had the halibut and risotto. The risotto was perfectly cooked and along with the asparagus, perfectly complemented the halibut, which was just slightly overcooked. The view is great as was the service. Highly recommend for a more romantic dinner in Door County.

My husband and I are on our honeymoon and absolutely loved our dinner here. Everything was outstanding. Definitely the restaurant for a fancy, delicious dinner out. Rivals some of our favorite upscale restaurants in Chicago.

Excellent dinner, great view of the sunset. Food was perfectly prepared, fresh and creative. My Halibut was outstanding as was my husband’s steak. Expensive, yes and worth it.

Lobster bisque! Oh my wow, best thing I’ve ever eaten. Wow! Half plates are nice, my wife and I shared lamb chops, scallops and the crab cakes. 2 soups and three half meals, one glass of wine was $100 total. Awesome dinner and a nice walk on the dock after was a great cap to an awesome meal. Romantic spot.

Amazing water front dinner with mussels and mahi-mahi. There is research in the kitchen! Amazing place if you are on a date. The service was great and loved the sunset view outside. The servers do not put pressure to accelerate your time and you feel welcome to stay and snjoy the view at your own pace.

Do not risk celebrating your special occasion here. Poor costumer service. Does not exemplify typical Door County friendliness or welcoming attitude.
