This restaurant is always busy and you honestly have to wait a while for the hot food. Our server was friendly and attentive to our needs. We ordered way more food than two people could possibly eat but we knew we could take it home. I love the cappuccino crunch ice cream. It is my all time favorite flavor. The ice cream came out pretty melty because of the extreme heat. Our server apologized for it. The restaurant has games available for the wait. The restaurant is quiet enough for conversation with one of your favorite sons also! The tables were clean as was the restroom. The food is decent. This is not gourmet dining nor is it necessarily healthy. As an occasional treat, the food hits the spot. We will be back!

My wife and I have visited Blue Heron many times, both before and after the reboot when the new GM…read morewas appointed. Other than some new decor (which in my opinion is tacky), and a few new items added to the menu, the other noticeable change appears to be the slow service coming from the kitchen and inconsistency of portion size. This past Friday we arrived at approximately 5:15, the restaurant was fairly busy with the bar nearly full and most tables occupied. The server was timely in taking our drink order while we reviewed the menu. We placed our order, 2 fish sandwiches and fries, then waited 40 MINUTES for our food to arrive. I'd like to say it was worth the wait, but the fish was cool and the few fries we received were cooler. The most disappointing part was that never once did we see a Manager or have one touching tables to check on guest, or apologize about wait times. All the guest adjacent to us were complaining about the wait. Our server was apologetic and understanding about our displeasure. Perhaps there is a good reason that there wasn't a Manager on duty, if there was one on duty, it's inexcusable that they weren't at all visible and engaged. As mentioned, since the temporary closure and reboot, the inconsistency in portion size and slow ticket times, along with the decor we've not seen much improvement.

The person whobhad the gilles cheese added bacon. They said the bacon was perfectly crisp, not floppy, not burnt. The Hot Dog was a Costco style 1/4lb dog, nuff said. The burgers came out on a soft hamburger bun, topped with a generous portion of lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. The patty was a well seasoned 70/30 patty that hit all the notes. Just right, not overly seasoned with GSP or fillers. Salt pepper Beef that's all. Finally, the star... the hand cut fries! This was a bonus for us as we didn't know thet had them. When the server suggested them, we all said yes! They were that rich brown that fresh fair fries get...ya know?! Summary: If you're in the area and are looking for a place to eat, check out the restaurant masquerading as a house in the center of Buckeye Lake.

I collect gift cards and they gave me a blank one for my collection and I loved the place so much I got a t-shirt. We're definitely coming back and I already know what I'm getting next!

I didn't eat all the fries but all were delicious. I highly recommend you stop in and support this local business.

My teenager and his date went to this McDonald on Friday around 10pm and ordered hamburger and…read morechicken nuggets. The date noticed the nuggets tasted funny and only ended up eating a few (maybe 3 or 4) and on their way home (roughly 20-30 minutes later) she started throwing up. I contacted the manager the next day and she was totally rude and said that you cannot get food poisoning that fast, and I informed her you can and she did. She continued to tell me that isn't correct and I told her I didn't call to argue but to simply inform her that the chicken is bad and they need to check this situation out. Not only was she not educated on food poisoning she was also extremely rude. Staphylococcus aureus toxins can cause nausea, vomiting, and stomach cramps very quickly per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. All she had to do was google it but instead she chose to argue and not do anything.

Island House is pretty much a dive bar. But this dive bar is staffed with ultra kind and…read moreaccommodating people. 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.
