"Went for fish fry on Friday, March 14th 2014. Hostess was very warm and friendly. Unfortunately, she was the highlight of the evening. When our server greeted us after a moderate-to-longish wait, she informed us they were out of the all-you-can-eat fish. Since the adult menu includes exactly 3 entrees, one would think perhaps the friendly hostess might have informed us of that. We settled for the non-all-you-can-eat perch for $1.50 more per meal than the all-you-can-eat would have been. When it finally arrived, it was on a tiny (7-8"?) round plate. A tiny portion of lame frozen fries, perhaps a bit less than a small from McDonald's accompanied the fish. The fish itself was overdone, incredibly thin, almost seemed to be mostly tail, could barely cut it. Virtually inedible. The cole slaw was fine.The server was nice. The beer-battered all-you-can-eat cod may be much better. We will never know. The meals we were served make the Holy Name church fish fry in Slavic Village look like the Blue Point Grille. Shan't return."

⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Very nice place came here for a closed party. Was disappointed in the ability of the bartender to make drinks. There was a lack of ingredients behind the bar and lack of knowledge in the bartender on how to make anything. Seems to be a straight shot or beer kind of bar"

— Ally Walter

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"This is a fine organization. They do many things to help veterans. Wife and I went to their fish fry. We'll go back. Nice folks here."

— David Iosue
