I thought this place was pretty cool. I didn’t like having to pay a fee to go into the parking lot however. You’ll have to pay $ 6 just to come in… Then you’ll have to either walk really far or call this weird golf cart taxi thing they have. Seems like there should be a better system. Once we got there I thought it was a sort of a neat place, with lots of couches and chairs everywhere. It’s right on the water. Customers seemed angry that they had stopped serving food(It was around 9pm). Overall it had kind of a depressing vibe for a Friday night. I’ll try again on a Saturday.

Crappy service every time we come here, but it’s the only restaurant around unless you want to drive your boat 2 miles across the lake! Note to owner: hire a manager!!! We came in, sat down, waited 15 minutes, made eye contact several times but was ignored by the wait staff, poured our own water, there were 5 waitresses and 1 waiter, there were only 5 tables taken, the place was practically empty!!! I finally went up to a waitress who was closing out a ticket and ordered a pizza to go, who acted like it was an inconvenience to take our order. First time ever, that I didn’t leave a tip!!!

We enjoyed eating here. We stopped by on our vacation on Friday night and hit flipped Friday Happy Hour! On the table was a happy hour menu we all ordered something different and was happily surprised with our cheeseburger sliders, mac n cheese bites and taquitos. The drinks came quickly and the food was served within 15 minutes our boys were still playing a bean bag toss game! Our wonderful waitress, Amy Jo even recommended a few places for us to visit in town. No taxes on the bill. Normally to get in the gate is 6 but we got in free with military id. Relaxing enjoyable evening, live music will be here Saturday night!

Why do I continue to eat at this place??? Because it’s convenient! Food always makes me ill and the service during the day is terrible! Server has 3 tables and its 105 outside and no refills offered!!! Somebody please take over this place!!! The only good thing it has going for it is the people watching

We eat here every weekend when we come to the lake. It’s great bar food– which is exactly what you want at the lake. We like their meat lovers pizza and my husband likes their dragon quesadilla. The staff is nice, they give it their all but could use a little more training. But, hey, its a beach restaurant so the service is as you would expect. May I give a suggestion to the people that complain about their staff? Maybe try being nice and considerate to staff… and people in general. Embrace the lake lifestyle! All around, I recommend. We love to bring our friends and family here. Its awesome to tie up your boat to the side of a restaurant, it’s so fun to watch the water and boats coming in, and it’s a fantastic place to just relax. It is such a cool place! Check it out.

Seems like everytime we eat here the order is always cold or wrong. Ordered chicken fried steak bfast and never got the steak. They serve the the eggs and and bacon then wanna bring out the steak out 20 mins later. wtf? We are embarrassed to complain because it seems like everytime our food is wrong and we’re having to say something. So we end up driving over to scorpion bay to eat at dillons. For what they charge you think the order would be right. Beware of wasting your money eating here. Complaints fall on deaf ears and they feel comfortable serving crappy food.

A great place to watch an Arizona sunset, grab a drink and relax. It’s a good choice after a long day on the water. I recommend the pizza, burgers and mac & cheese bites!

Not a fan!!! I’ve been here several times & the wait staff is such a turn off, very rude & fake. It makes the dining experience & food very mediocre. They seem bothered that we patrons are even there. We only come here since it’s the only restaurant at Lake Pleasent Harbor side. Been to Dillions(that other reviewers mentioned) food & service seems better there is a drive around the lake. I don’t recommend coming out here unless you have no other choice.

We had breakfast before going on the boat tour of the Lake. The Chicken Fried steak was really very good. The eggs were cooked perfectly. Service was prompt and friendly. This is a very rustic location, very nautical as is appropriate for its location. If you are looking for Michelin stars, this is not your kind of place, but for good food, excellent service at very reasonable prices, you won’t be disappointed.

This place is in a great location. The décor is tired and could use an update. The service was good and so was the food. My only complaint is being asked to close my tab before my food was served because the bartender’s shift was ending. This is a pet peeve of mine. It seems rude and it is not good for the customer, the business or the server. I left a smaller tip than usual and rather than ordering more drinks, we left. We’ll be back to say hi to Sam and see if anything has changed.

Terrible. Don’t waste your money. We spent $ 65 on the worst meal that we have ever had. We ordered buffalo wings and they brought out their boneless version. We did not ask for boneless. Their boneless wings are made out of processed chicken nuggets! Gross. Then the pizza came out. The outside was over cooked and the crust on the inside was undercooked. The server commented on how bad the pizza looked, but did not offer to comp it. My 5 boys thought the pizza was gross. They love pizza and never turn it down. My husband tasted it and said it was bad. I do not recommend this place. My order was wrong as well, but the server fixed it. Sweet potato fries were good, but my burger was nasty. We plan on NEVER returning.

My second and third times to this place really let me down. Service was non-existent and the food was poor compared to our fist experience. I know this is on the water, but I really didn’t appreciate people coming in with no shirts(men) and no shoes. What a shame, this could be a real gold mine. We’ll go back just to have a beer and watch the boats.

Had a great time here! Really cool place! The wait staff weren’t pushy at all, let us hang out for 2 hours waiting for the band to start, said«No worries, we’re on lake time!» The band was awesome, the ambiance was playful & casual, mostly people who had been boating all day stopping in for a bite to eat and some drinks.

If you are visiting Lake Pleasant, skip the Waterfront Grill and go Dillions. The food at the Waterfront Grill is some of the most overpriced and unappetizing food. We have had a boat slipped at this Marina for over 8 years. We always being our own food or go to Dillion’s and try to avoid this restaurant. The portions are small, the presentation is awful and the flavors are non existent. If you visit the waterfront grill, the pizza is the only item on the menu that is worth ordering. The atmosphere is great with the views and the service varies by staff and shift. If you are looking for a good meal, go to Scorpion Bay and visit Dillion’s.e

We have been here on a couple of occasions, only by default when Dillon’s at Scorpion Bay Marina is packed. There is one thing you can count on with this restaurant, on any busy weekend when Dillon’s is packed you can always walk right in and get a table here. That’s your first sign that something just isn’t right. And, that should be Waterfront’s sign that something is terribly wrong. It only goes downhill from there. Each time we have gone the service is ssssllllloooowww. I have never been able to understand why that is, it’s not because they are busy. Dillon’s is busy and their service is great. The food has always been just OK, except this last time we went, which, by the way, is the last time we will ever go. I had some family in from out of town for Memorial Day Weekend and that Saturday I took a group to the lake for some wake boarding. At lunchtime we went to Dillon’s, it was packed with an hour + wait time. So, we hopped in the boat and went to Pleasant Harbor. Not only did we have slow service, but by sister had mold in her salad and they screwed up our food order. Then, they screwed up our bill. Any time that I have had a problem with food quality or billing problems at any other restaurant the staff and management will usually make an effort to make it right by either replacing the food or taking that particular item off the bill. Not here! The waitress did say«sorry». I contacted Ben, the manager, the following week on the phone. He explained that they had recently taken over the operation of the marina and restaurant, and were working to make some changes. I told Ben about our experiences, and he had asked that I send him an email outlining the problems and that he would email back some coupons for some freebies. I figured if I got some coupons I would go back towards the end of the summer to give them time to iron out the problems. That was over a week ago and I have not heard back. And, the email didn’t bounce back, so I guess that they just don’t care. As I told Ben, this place has so much potential. Look at Dillon’s!!! Their food is good, not spectacular, although some of their waitresses are spectacular. But their service is great. This could be a really cool waterfront bar & grill. It has the ambiance and the dock space. Unless I hear otherwise, I am done trying to give Waterfront Bar & Grill second, third and fourth chances. 15 years ago it used to be pretty good. That was then and this is now. I did provide what I thought was constructive criticism. I do wish them the best.

We were a little concerned when we saw the reviews but we had a great experience! It was a wonderful evening on the lake, food was excellent, and service was good! They do cater to their members but if your not a member someone will come pick you up in a golf cart at the parking area and drop you at the front door. My husband had the special that night which was a pastrami hot sandwich. It was amazing!!! Fried fish was good too. Beautiful sunset on the lake and cold beer. We will be back!

Slow service. Greasy nasty food, not friendly at all. Such a shame because this place could be a goldmine. I agree stay away. Only good thing was the shuttle drivers.

Stay away is all I can say. So bad in every aspect. Dillon’s is the only place to go on the lake. Do not waste your time or money. Got sick from their horrific so called«breakfast buffet». Nothing but a joke. Absolute filth and neglect. Just stay away.

I have been to a lot of water front bars and this place shame with a great location. With one other place of competition no wonder Dillions has no dock space. Poor poor poor service. Its like they really do not care. Menu was a stapled together blue wrinkled copy of copy paper. Food was less than average and the Sunday buffet was horrible… On top of bad service. No management what so ever…

It’s amazing that they are stil running this place the way they do. Even on a Saturday or Sunday in the heavy season, there are few patrons and the service is still unbelievably slow. On our last attempt to have breakfast here, it took us 55 minutes to get served some eggs, bacon, and the usual. Prices are pretty high, food quality is just middle of the road. I suppose this is why the other restaurant in the area, Dillon’s, is always packed while this one is empty.
