    If you haven't eaten at Pivot Lounge yet, "HOLD UP!" you're definitely missing out on one of Crown…read morePoint's MOST unexpectedly fantastic dinners. I and a few other family members were invited by my mother and by the time I walked out, I was wondering why this place wasn't packed wall‑to‑wall every night. Let's start with Monday's AYCE perch -- absolutely outstanding. Lightly breaded, perfectly seasoned, and fried just right. It's the kind of perch that makes you rethink every mediocre fish fry your uncle threw that your family tolerated. If you're a perch person, this is your new weekly ritual. Then came the walleye, WATCH OUT NOW, and honestly, my sister wasn't prepared. She said it was flaky, flavorful, and cooked with the kind of herbs & spices she recognized that said, "Yeah, we know exactly what the hell we're doing." "It's the kind of fish that makes you pause mid‑bite and appreciate life for a second." But the real surprise of the night? The bacon, mushroom, and American cheese hamburger -- unforgettable. This thing deserves its own billboard. Juicy, stacked, and unapologetically delicious. Every bite felt like a small celebration. On top of all that, the place is spotless. I mean impressively clean. Floors, tables, bar area -- everything looked like someone had just finished polishing it. You can tell the staff takes pride in the space. And speaking of the space... Yes, the building once housed a gentleman's club. But now? It's so clean, so friendly, and so well‑run that the only thing dancing is your taste buds. The only thing exotic here is how good the food is. Pivot Lounge has officially earned a spot on my "must return" list. Great food, great service, great atmosphere -- and a glow‑up story worthy of its own documentary.

    The key to eating out begins with service. And service at…read morePivot has been on a long slow decline. They keep losing good servers and the staff has expressed failures of management. This comes out in service to customers. The food still is acceptable but the failure to be nice and friendly has made the experience an abject failure. They have lost my confidence and we who go once a week are now done. No more. Consider yourself warned and buyer beware. Lots of good options in Crown Point that will provide good service. There has always been an off odor here but can be overlooked if all else is good.

Note: my dad is…read moredisabled and doesn't navigate online menus well so he calls places to be sure that he understands their prices. Note: We gave this place multiple passes on bad behavior/customer service. I'll never spend another dollar there. So 1st the phone call: While he was talking to the young lady, he had to ask the her several times to be patient with him because she got annoyed with him asking basic questions. Besides, she kept misquoting us and we were Patient with her. Arrival: I get there and she's like we ran out of medium lobster tails so we charged you $5 more for a large lobster tail. So they made that and never said anything until it was time to pay. Again, I let this slide because my dad really wanted this place and I won't be able to get him it tomorrow(actual Father's Day) As I'm getting ready to pay, the young lady tried to charge me and additional $4 because she kept making up that I was paying with ebt. I never said anything about ebt or even debit..I kept saying that I was paying with a credit card then she was like "oh it's only $2 extra" I was like well we called and we weren't notified that there was a different fee if you pay with card. I could've stopped to get cash if I was notified when we asked. Her response was pretty much, "you see the paper right there.... well that's what he wants to charge so..." I reminded her for the 3rd or 4th time that I never been there so these are things that I didn't know before arriving. So here we are at $7 additional dollars for this food that we were unaware of. Sn: during the visit, This girl started rolling her eyes while talking to customers on the phone which definitely confirmed her impatience for our call. After purchasing: I went to the car took my dad his food and told him that I'd never return. So, he called and asked to speak to the manger. The girl left him on hold and then came back and said that there wasn't a manager for him to speak to. No one was in charge there. And she hung up on him while he was speaking. That young lady really created a bad experience in addition to hidden fees and things. As far as, the food.. for the price, quality, and experience was not great. The price point for my catfish and shrimp was not bad but the flavor was not good. The quality wasn't good either. (I'll share a picture of mine) My dad's food was around $53 for a 1 large lobsters tail, 1/2 catfish, 1/2 shrimp with the potatoes, corn and broccoli. I was hoping that food would redeem this experience but it didn't. It's a no return for me. You can literally make better seafood boil at home with a positive experience/no hidden fees/ and lots of flavor for less.
