Last month, we were nearly two and a half hours into our drive from Pittsburgh to Columbus and…read morestopped in at The Blue Heron Kitchen. Based on several other reviews, I was a bit worried at first about what was to be expected with speed and quality of service. Our server, a young lady, was excellent, and helpful with making our choices. Her manager or chef seemed like a man possessed running around the floor to assist his staff at the time and did stop by once to check in with us. As far as menu changes or decor from a recent refresh, I have no basis of comparison so couldn't care less about that. We were starving so we opted for recommendations from our server spanning all over the menu. We had everything from cheese curds and bang bang shrimp to the Reuben and patty melt, to a filet mignon with loaded baked potato as a side. In retrospect, kicking ourselves now since nobody in our party got any seafood outside of the shrimp appetizer. Doubtful we will be back east of Columbus for a while so I have no idea when we'd realistically get to try the Salmon BLT or seafood pasta. Unfortunately nobody snagged photos of the food since we were famished and it wasn't a priority. I don't eat sweets, but was told the Key Lime Pie and Banana Fosters were well worth saving room for. If you're like me, I'd opt for the OG Dockside Old Fashioned instead.

We were seated behind a barrier, and after dropping off our entrees, our server disappeared. My husband realized that he hadn't been served any condiments with his fish & chips -- no tartar sauce, lemon, vinegar or ketchup, nor slaw. He waited a few minutes to dig in, figuring someone would pop around the corner and we'd catch their eye, or our own server would return to check on us. Nope. Meanwhile, hubby had tasted a few fries, which were barely warm and a bit flabby. He started to eat his fish, sans tartar, and said it was ok, but not super hot. Fish and chips out to come out of the fryer so fresh and hot that you need to wait a few minutes to eat it so you don't burn your mouth -- but not here. This food had been sitting around a while. A few other servers had checked on tables nearish to ours, but didn't give us so much as a glance, and didn't hear our loud "Excuse me!"s. We weren't thrilled at the prospect of having to get up and go to the bar or hostess station to get help. But because both our meals had become unenjoyable thanks to waiting over ten minutes for someone to happen by, I decided I'd go seek assistance. But just then, our server happened by. We flagged her down and asked for all the things that were missing. She glanced at my husband's still pretty full plate and her eyes popped a bit, clearly realizing that the sitch was not pleasing to us. She brought the missing condiments, but damage done at that point. It had been a little exhausting waiting around and keeping our eyes peeled for a passing server. The restaurant should make it more of a point to send servers through that lower seating area on the regular. It was a pretty mediocre dinner.

SEVEN WORDS: Decadent Comfort Food / Cozy, yet Upscale: Exquisite…read more. Dear Horvaths" Wow. Sincerely, Two Yelpers. . We found Horvaths on a Lark - traveling East on 70, then finding a Gas Station with WiFi and Searching out a Restaurant via Yelp. Although Horvaths was 3.4 Stars, it was 1st among local restaurants in our Search. Knowing that one of our ABSOLUTE FAVORITES, Red Lobster in Whitehall, is rated 3 L 2, we know that ratings can be sabotaged by Yelpers-for-Egos' Sake Users. Boy, were we right. . This place is a very Succinct 5-Star Stop. . As you Arrive, the Restaurant is very unassuming: a Two-Story Farmhouse with a 50' x 120' Rectangilar Footprint. The Parking pad fits about 18 cats/trucks, and a decent facade-wide porch allows hawkers to sit out front and eat. . Inside, the Foyer opens to a cozy coffee bar and after a shotgun hallway, a wall-length bar opens to a small dining area. Everything is appointed in a medium walnut tone, with a Wyoming Mountain Home feel to the Interior. It was Fantastically Cozy. . We started with the Seafood Sampler appetizer. It includes grilled Brussel Sprouts, Deep Fried Creany Crab Rangoon, and Coconut-Crusted Shrump.Each item was just about perfect: full of robust taste and cooked beyond all Expectations. Our Entrees were Simple: Thick-Cut Bologna for Me and a Rice Bowl for my Wife. Bothnof those were quite yummy. The Rice Bowl nearly tasted like a great polenta Bowl, with bits of Fresh Spinach and other Seasonal Veggies Added to the Healthy Mix. . For 1 Appetizer, 2 Entrees, and 2 Sodas, the Total came to $42. That's nearly unheard of these days. In fact, it leans into our Favorite 'Cheap Eats Slogan': "MorecAffordable than Raising Canes." . Darn Tootin. At $42 and for that Exquisite Amount of Quality, I wouldn't be Surprised if we made sure this was a Forced Detour in our Very Near Future. NOTHING LESS THAN Fantastic.

I showed up by my lonesome, not knowing anything about Island House or Buckeye Lake or anything, and I was greeted warmly and shown to the popcorn maker. The popcorn maker is there by the bar and is available (with buttered popcorn) for your popcorn-eating needs. I'm assuming that popcorn is complimentary with your meal, because I saw a dude come up and get a bag of popcorn (twice). That's nice that Island House offers free popcorn. Anyway, I didn't eat the popcorn. It was a little ... I don't know. It was a little much for me. Instead, I ordered a Club Sandwich (toasted bread, ham, turkey, bacon, cheese, lettuce and tomato). The club sandwich was great! It's sometimes difficult to make a great club sandwich, even though the components are simple. This club sandwich at Island House was great. It came with ruffle chips. There is patio seating here at Island House, which is probably amazing during the summer and fall, because you're steps from the lake. I sat indoors (by a window), which is an option but FYI the ventilation is a little lacking and it was a tad stuffy inside.
