Fodor's Expert Review The Boardwalk

Overlooking Lake Erie, with some outdoor seating, this is one of the liveliest places in town—at least during the summer season, when it's actually open. The Boardwalk attracts regular visitors to the island who come for its fresh seafood and famous lobster bisque. The restaurant spans multiple decks and guests order from little kiosks before sitting down to dine. Waitstaff are primarily college students looking to make some extra cash over the summer, so the service can vary greatly from year to year.
