Great restaurant to visit in the summertime as they have a wonderful terrace outside on the lake with a lot of seating. It's cool to watch the boat pull up in the dock. The food is pretty good too and the staff is polite read more

A group of 7 of us came here for our "W" restaurant. We were seated in a fairly quiet area with a view of the patio & the water. I loved the little water glasses they used, but they WERE very little. The iced tea was really good as well. I ordered the chimichurri chicken. There was a choice of salad or soup and type of starch, and vegetables were also on the plate. I chose a tomato dressing, but I didn't like it; it tasted like pizza sauce. But, my sister let me share her raspberry vinaigrette, so that was sufficient. I'd never had chimichurri before. It was good, and a bit different. My sister had the chicken kabob, and it was served on a long skewer that was hanging from a rod-like thing. It was very impressive! The only reasons I'm not giving this restaurant 5 stars are that the prices are a bit high for what it is, and none of our beverages (water & iced tea) were refilled. But, I would come here again. read more

The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff provided excellent service. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was that we were never informed the air conditioning could not keep the room cooler than 82 degrees. Had we known this in advance, we would not have booked a summer event there. While everything else met our expectations, failing to disclose this important detail made the celebration very uncomfortable for our guests and was unacceptable. Also, they had a tip jar out for guests while also automatically adding gratuity. If gratuity is already included, that should be clearly communicated so guests don't feel pressured to tip twice. read more

We have been here quite a few times as my mom enjoys being by the water. We typically come on Mother's Day. The food is always good, but nothing really outstanding. I've never had anything that's particularly bad. Just if not for the location. I'm not sure I'd come out of my way to come here. We had the Octopus and Saganaki as appetizers. The octopus was very good, Saganaki is always good, I mean it's melted cheese. Three of us had the lemon rice soup. It's decent, I had the fish and chips, again, it was pretty good, I've had better, I've had worse. I gave the coleslaw to my wife, she had 2 bites and was done. She said "the coleslaw from KFC is way better, I give it 2 stars." My daughter had the summer salad and she said "it's ok, not great but good." Overall I give it a 3 for all the reasons I mentioned. Food wise, it's ok, ambience is great as it's on the water. Service is always good, you can have to wait sometimes as it is busy for special events or holidays. We will come back as my mom really likes coming here. But there is room for improvement. read more

Went for dinner on a Sunday night. It was a bit cool out so chose to eat inside. The decor is elegant and the view of the slips of boats is nice. Stated with a few wine samples but they were not that great , so went with a cocktail that was ok. Our waitress said the new menu is coming out next week so may have different drinks for summer. I ordered the grilled salmon and my sister had the seafood salad. Both were great portions, beautiful to look at and delicious. Finished with the tiramisu which was delicious as well. I highly recommend for dinner and can't wait for the evenings to warm up so we can dine outside by the water. read more

If you haven't been in here in a while GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY! We have gone weekly for the last year and get the chicken kabob dinner and it's AMAZING! All my friends go there now for this! Also the Greek salad with PINK DRESSING is SO GOOD! This is my favorite pink dressing ever! The owner is very involved and always walking the floor. Treats everyone like they are friends/family 10/10 read more

We came here to eat outside. The wait was very long. They were understaffed I'm guessing. After a 40+ minute wait, the sun started to go down and we were finally seated. Service was so slow. The waiter was nice but it started to get cold so we asked to move inside. They said okay. The loudest band I've ever heard was playing during the pistons game and the nfl draft. I couldn't believe no one asked them to turn it down. Food was good but service was horrible and slow and ambiance should have been nice but was so so. read more

The best part of this place is the ambience - nice decor, lots of windows, and located on the water. Maybe my expectations were too high, but the food here was underwhelming. The drinks were great, though - I loved the pineapple upside down cake martini (though for $15 it should have been a little bigger). We started with some apps - the spinach/artichoke dip was good, but the chips seemed slightly stale. The calamari was not so good, and in hindsight I probably should have sent it back. I'm pretty sure they used frozen calamari. The breading was dry and the calamari was also dry, chewy and flavorless. And the dipping sauce (not sure what it was supposed to be) was terrible. It had a disgusting consistency and just didn't taste good. I asked the server for some cocktail sauce instead but I was told that they *didn't have* cocktail sauce. Are you serious? A waterfront restaurant that serves seafood doesn't have cocktail sauce? We were then served our dinner salads, which were uninspired little plates of lettuce with tomato. Just as we were about to start eating the salads, out came the entrees, which was not the best timing but whatever. As for the entrees, the fish and chips were good, and were a nicely sized portion. The coleslaw had an odd taste, but wasn't horrible. The Greek pizza was very good and had a nicely caramelized crust. The seafood pasta w/vodka sauce was beautifully presented, but the shrimp and the (tiny) mussels in it were overcooked. Service was ok, no complaints there. I doubt that I'll be back, there are plenty of other options in the area. read more

Had a fantastic 130 person celebration dinner at watermark and the whole experience could not have been better. First. The room is threat with a stunning view ie the lake and marina. Managers Yianni and Dino were so incredibly accommodating. We would ask for something and it would appear. The servers were great. The food was great. But it was mostly how cheerfully they made everything so easy. What a great place for my mother's 90th birthday! Could not have been better, read more

The amount of one-star reviews is pretty alarming, but I didn't experience any of that. You go to Watermark for the chill, refreshing environment on the water. If you don't care about that, then maybe go somewhere else? Like most, I wouldn't say the food was outstanding, but we enjoyed our fish entrees. It's not something that would prevent us from returning. The drinks were good. The food was good. The service was good. After eating on the water, we had another drink by the bar at the entrance. Was a good time. Maybe there's just a lot of one-star reviewers who come here? read more

We had a good experience here with family in the outside igloo. Our server was nice and very prompt. I was hesitant to eat here as the food didn't appear super appetizer on photos or reviews. However, I finally settled on the seafood pasta- a dish that I knew would be packed with flavor. I'm not really a pasta person- but this was very good! We also had calamari and the saganaki. The calamari wasn't my favorite, but was good enough. read more

My first time here, we came for a work lunch. It was quiet in there, only a few tables. The service was good. The water on the table was replaced as soon as it was finished. Apps came out quickly, and food came very quickly for the fact that we were a big table. Steaks were cooked nicely, everyone was satisfied. I got the lemon chicken ravioli and it was amazing! The vodka seafood pasta looked delicious as well. read more

We were looking for someplace on the water for a celebration lunch on a late summer day and this place looked perfect. The hostess tried to discourage us from sitting outside because people had told her that it was too hot, but that was our whole reason for picking this place, so we told her we'd take our chances. Not only was it fine, it was absolutely gorgeous out there! The deck is spacious and beautiful and has a nice view of the marina area. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We also had a couple of brief interactions with someone who appeared to be the manager and he was very nice. We also saw him pounce on someone who started smoking on the deck within seconds of when we first smelled it...we loved that! The menu has a lot of great choices. I had read about the cheeseburger egg rolls, so we started with those and they totally lived up to the hype. I had the Cali Club Panini - it was a little bland, but good. My wife had the quesadillas and said they were very good. I don't get to that side of town very often, but I would definitely go back to this place! read more

A month later and I'm just getting around to writing this review. That should tell you how memorable the experience was. We celebrated my mother's 80th birthday. We picked from one of the choices of limited menus for our large group. We were seated in the most beautiful location. Service was perfection my family is still talking about how good the food was. I will definitely be revisiting. read more

Food presentation was outrageous, Service was above and beyond, which goes along with the great ambience.

Birthday Weekend,I traveled to visit my family in MI. My Cousin invited me to this Restaurant located where her boat is docked. I highly anticipated dining here and visiting with family. To start the Parking is decent, as well the ambiance of the restaurant is very nice. The wait for a table was approximately 30 minutes. Our Server Juliana was very pleasant and attentive to each table in our section which was the outdoor dining area. The food was palatable, I ordered the Asian salad which was lite and flavorful and consisted of Mandarin orange slices, peanuts, sesame seeds, tortilla strips w/a house made dressing. The Broccoli was steamed with garlic very Flavorful, and honestly the best food on my plate, the Orange Roughy didn't dissapoint nor did it impress, the only love expressed on that plate was by the vegetable chef, hats off to you my friend the Broccoli was done to near perfection. The other guests at the table for my Birthday meal were family visiting from Denver , their dish selections consisted of : Fettuccine Pasta with, Lobster, shrimp and mussells, the sauce which the two that ordered this dish described the alfredo sauce as being "too Sweet." One of our cousins ordered Chicken Piccata, her opinion of her meal mirrors mine , the Broccoli was firing on all cylinders, the chicken was just ok. The Stir-fry meal was described as "pretty good." The meal I mention last is the "12oz. Tomahawk Grilled Porkchop," the meat was one Heatbeat past squeeling "Oink" on the plate!!!! The cut was very fatty and once cut into, visibly STILL RAW!!!! I personally don't mess with too much pork, but when I do, it's DEFINITELY NOT RAW!!!! After explaining to our server Juliana, she showed the customer service, you'd expect by apologizing 1st, then getting her manager. UNFORTUNATELY this is where our dining experience took a nosedive . Sam "The Manager " perhaps you were having a Personally Bad day, indeed a quite rotten day, that matched your Lack of professionalism in handling the Issue for the Elder at our table!!! You approached with a defensive attitude, despite the fact that you offered to take the meat back to your kitchen and put it back on your Grill. Insead of apologizing for her experience, removing it from her bill, or offering anything else she may have desired, you chose to have a verbal sparring match with guests at the table. When asked your name and if you could provide a business card, you snarked "Sam, my last name is Greek and you wouldn't know how to spell it shouted Im done here," and stormed off. Unacceptable Sam, good thing Juliana showed the courtesy and professionalism of a manager, because clearly you hate your job. Jordan, The second manager to approach our table was personable and rectified the situation by removing the undercooked meal from the bill. Needless to say, this establishment gets three stars for Juliana, a mention for Jordan, and a Blaring warning for Sam. The menu had several choices, apparently the 6 we made weren't that great. There are plenty of better places to dine in the Metro Detroit area, Watermark Bar & Grill is not one of them and will not be on the suggestion list. It's imperative to read reviews and choose better! read more

I planned a date night for their winter igloos. I'm notorious for planning awkward dates so I can't say anything against the restaurant for my time and day but on a Sunday evening the place felt completely empty. We missed sunset but the igloo was right on the water and I'm sure would be lovely. There are twinkle lights inside and a small heater that wasn't super powerful but I think with more then two people you would be warm enough. Our waiter was a younger guy and was fantastic. The downside of the evening was the food. First off the menu was very random- I'm not sure if they were going for an eclectic options but the dishes were very random in all the categories. Also for my husband who is a little picky (certain veggies or seafood are a no go) it was hard to find something that didn't have a lot of ingredients he would enjoy. I felt like there weren't a lot of "safe" dish options. We had the cheeseburger eggrolls- which were fried to death. The "special" sauce was drizzled on top and was kinda like a burger sauce of mayo ketchup and mustard. Not my favorite and probably wouldn't order again. My husband went with a chipotle turkey panini, other than the super thick cut turkey it was fine. I chose the lemon chicken ravioli, it was fine as well. It just felt like the quality of food really didn't fit the ambiance or feel of the nice restaurant. read more

My brother and sister in law as well as my husband and myself drove over an hour to experience the Watermark Bar and Grill. Initially we were very impressed with the ambiance and decor of the restaurant. We were seated outside on their patio/deck, nice decor and umbrellas and the view of the boats added to the atmosphere. However unfortunately the food was a huge disappointment. Brother in law and husband ordered a gyos sandwich with rice. Both gyros were dry and over cooked and hard. There was a small scoop of tzatziki sauce that was embarrassing. The rice was dry and not seasoned at all. They also ordered two long ice tea drinks that were so watered down and weak that it looked clear clear water. When my husband mentioned it to the waitress, laughed and said she was sorry and that was it, no offer to make another one or take it off the bill. I ordered a chicken sandwich that was dry and overcooked as well. My fries were not warm or hot and had no seasoning whatsoever. They were worse than fries out of the frozen food section. My sister in law's salad was the only thing at the table that wasn't terrible. We did speak to the manager and he said he would have a talk with the kitchen staff. He brought us one piece of cheese cake to share among the 4 of use. We got the feel that the manager was a bit inexpierced and didn't know how to make the customer feel that they were important to the business and that he wanted them to come back for a return visit. We will never return to this restaurant and would like everyone to know that if you go, don't expect a good quality meal. Stick with the bottled beer and view if you must. Such a shame! https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g42669-d10593056-r1024599569-Watermark_Bar_and_Grille-Saint_Clair_Shores_Michigan.html# read more

This place used to be great. Food was fantastic service was amazing....not so much anymore. We've been there a couple times in the past few months and everything has just really gone downhill. Yesterday for example the food that we ordered was absolutely horrible and took an hour to make it to our table. Chicken caesar wrap had almost no dressing, cheese or chicken and was served tiny and smashed and was served basically like two street tacos the French fries that came with it were cold and as old as Moses. The spicy chicken sandwich was terrible and way over cooked (or reheated) fries that came with that were served the same as the ones that came with the wrap. I remember this place being great with awesome food, now it's more like overpriced 3am diner food. read more

An hour and a half wait for the outside balcony. We sat at the table in the upper bar area. The dining area is completely empty. They must not have enough staff to be able to accommodate the dining area. Hostess thought the restaurant had been around since 2016. We ordered the spinach artichoke with corn chips and the octopus char-grilled, a big fat Greek, homemade lobster Mac & cheese and a seafood watermark. The octopus char-grilled is okay, very chewy, rubbery even. Not tender at all. It's hard to chew down. The spinach artichoke dip is also okay, the corn chips are garbage, not fresh, out of a giant bag. The lobster Mac & cheese is okay, spicy flavoring to it. The veggie burger was okay for mom. The seasoned fries were good. The seafood watermark was so-so. Canned tuna, cold salmon, breaded shrimp. read more

Just finished dinner at the watermark, my families first time there. The location is great, water views, a huge building, looks awesome inside. The staff is friendly, and attentive. The food was disappointing.we started with buffalo chicken egg rolls, they were decent.I got the fish and chips to share with my wife. I thought this would be a safe choice. The fries were cold, room temperature, this was an immediate red flag. My son got the shipwreck chicken sandwich, his fires were the same. The fish was ok, but nothing special. This place could be so good, Zef's down the street had an hour wait, so we came here. Watermark is a better, bigger location. The bar is huge and well well stocked with quality liquor. Get better food and better cooks. This place should be packed on a Saturday. read more
