    Island House is definitely a spot for locals only in my opinion. Most of the tourists head to Papa Boo's or the Waterfront or Buckeye Lake Boatyard, but nobody drives all the way around the lake to Lieb's Island. It's small on the inside, with the bar taking up most of the space, but the patio is large with two levels and a small stage for live music. I have yet to eat at Island House, but it's definitely a spot to see "Lake Culture". It's right on the canal right across the lake from the boat launch on Lieb's, so there's lots of great people watching and lake life bustling about. Last time I stopped in, our server was Clair and she was super awesome. I would go back just to chat with her. I hope that she had a great time at the concert she went to at the Bluestone when she got off of work :)

    We were checking out Buckeye Lake and came to this spot for the first time. Low key and casual environment. Dock space available too- people were coming off lake to eat. We had wings, shrimp, and a burger at our table. No complaints about any of the food! Simple and good beer selection and full bar. Friendly service.

    Shrimp Salad is the best. Boat here. It's a hidden spot that I like to visit when I am in Ohio instead of CA. Great little lake community.

    Good luck finding something healthy here. It's a beautiful hole in the wall. Bar food is great, above average even. Service is great too.

We learned that this restaurant is under new management and has a new menu. Yall knocked it out of the park. Cool vibe. Excellent drinks as well! We will be back!

    Don't you just love stumbling upon hidden gems? Hereinafter is a magical place that I found while…read moredriving around Millersport. It's located in what feels like the middle of nowhere near Buckeye Lake. It's almost like I summoned it from my imagination, because I saw it on the side of the road right around the end of the day when I just needed some place to get a drink and a dessert. I sat at the bar, and the owner, Ben, served me himself! They have a full bar with lots of creative cocktail options, but I opted for wine. Ben happens to have a deep love of wine, and he gave me a couple of sample tastes of some of the special ones he had at the bar. We talked wine for a bit (he personally sources the wine he offers at Hereinafter from all over the world). It was such a nice visit -- just chatting about wine while drinking wine -- and definitely made my night. I like my wine dry, but I like my desserts sweet, so I got the warm peach cobbler. It was served bubbling hot in a little cast iron skillet, topped with a dollop of sweet cream. It was delicious, and it felt ultra decadent to eat while drinking wine. The atmosphere at Hereinafter is classy and cool and modern with a nod to mid-century decor (there's a plastic pink flamingo at the entrance). If you don't want to sit at the bar like I did, there are also booths and tables, so lots of places to sit and enjoy a drink and a meal with friends.

    Sorry people, but since reopening, your food has sucked. I've been three times, and ALL the meals…read morewe've had were awful. I don't know who is advising you on your new business model, but changing your menu was the worst thing you did. You had a good menu, you just needed to be consistent with preparing it. And the prices were a bit high for Buckeye Lake. I don't mind paying for good food, but when the quality went down, that's when we stopped coming back. You were offering specials from time to time, which were good!! And the live music was awesome. You also got rid of the best person working there. Nate the bartender. You people just don't know a good thing when you've got it. But, at our last visit, I see you saw the error of your ways. Sorry, I really hate to leave this kind of review, but you need to know. You took a nice "upper scale" restaurant and ruined it with that awful food. It's not the actual offerings, it's the quality of the food. Kinda reminds me of the food you get at a stand in an amusement park. My family owned a restaurant for many years, so this review isn't from just one unhappy customer.
