Great for outdoor dining

Located at the Sheraton Erie Bayfront Hotel, Two45 Waterfront Grille pays homage to the precise moment in history that Oliver Hazard Perry bravely led the US Navy on the path to victory during the Battle of Lake Erie.

As a tribute to our fair city, the restaurant offers upscale, traditional American cuisine with a focus on seafood and coastal fare. Chef's specialties include macadamia-crusted grouper filet, premium beef cuts, and a bone-in tomahawk pork chop.

Join us for Brunch Saturday and Sunday, and Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner seven nights a week.

It was the 4 th of July on the bay. Management had a true fail. There were too many reservations for the very hard working staff which resulted in running out of many of the menu food items and the kitchen and staff were not able to keep up with patrons. Example - we waited 45 min at the table without a waiter greeting even when we alerted management that we had no waiter several times prior. Also- the Sheraton needed security at the resturant. There was a flux of people who came through the resturant to the outside seating who bought no food and stood in front of our table for an hour as we ate & blocked our fireworks view . The regular staff felt helpless and management did nothing to control these non paying and unseated people. The waiter who finally waited on us did a great job with the stressed situation and we truly appreciate his service. The few appetizers still left as a choice were good. The salmon entree was overcooked but the pork chop was good. The City firework display made the evening worth the chaos. Overall - the management needed to assign more staff, order more food and have security to avoid non resturant patrons on the patio.

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the difficulties you experienced during your visit. We understand how frustrating it was to wait so long for service and to find many menu items unavailable due to the high volume of guests. We also regret the inconvenience caused by non-paying patrons blocking your view and disrupting your experience. Your comments regarding staffing, food availability, and security are very important to us. We are actively reviewing these areas to improve our operations. We’re glad to hear your waiter provided great service despite the stressful situation and that you enjoyed some of the appetizers and the fireworks display. We truly appreciate your honest feedback and hope to welcome you back for a better experience in the future.

We were seated outside. Perfect setting. If I could have given 4.5 stars for overall, I would have, but it's VERY difficult to get a 5 from me. Service was excellent (Jennifer was the main server for us), staff paid good attention to us. Prices were reasonable for a restaurant of this type. Crab croquettes, Barrel cut filet mignon with mashed taters, Macadamia nut crusted grouper w mushrooms, and desserts We would recommend. The pomegranate mule was a very good drink. We will return sometime in the future. Too many restaurants to try in the area.

Hi Ray, Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the beautiful outdoor setting and that Jennifer and our team provided excellent service. It sounds like you had a delicious meal with some great choices — we’re glad the pomegranate mule was a hit too! We appreciate your kind recommendation and understand that a perfect 5-star experience can be hard to earn. We look forward to welcoming you back whenever you’re ready to explore more of what we offer. Thanks again for dining with us!

Took over 45 min for appetizers to arrive. Ordered the bread and buffalo cauliflower—both were good. Dinner came about 20 min later. Clam chowder, Caesar salad and spicy shrimp pasta were good. Just way too long of a wait. Not acceptable since we were seated in bar area and it wasn’t full.
Two45 Waterfront GrilleResponded on June 25, 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food, including the bread, buffalo cauliflower, and entrees. However, we sincerely apologize for the long wait you experienced, especially while seated in the bar area when it wasn’t busy. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We will address this with our team to ensure faster service in the future. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

The food was excellent, and the service was very good. One thing that is a little confusing, is that the sign for the restaurant is in front of a building that is two blocks away from the restaurant. As a result, we parked quite far away from the restaurant. The other thing is that they could wash their windows a more often. The restaurant has a nice view of the lake, but that is lessened by having to look through dirty windows. Despite these areas of improvement, the culinary experience is worth while.
Two45 Waterfront GrilleResponded on June 25, 2025
Thank you for your kind recommendation and for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the food and service, and that our restaurant provided a charming setting for your special occasion. We truly appreciate you pointing out the confusion regarding the signage and the condition of the windows — your comments are valuable and will help us improve the overall guest experience. We hope to welcome you back soon for another excellent dining experience, and next time, we’ll make sure everything looks just as perfect as the food!

Two45 Waterfront is located on the ground floor of the Sheraton adjacent to the Erie Bayfront Convention Center. Food was truly exceptional. They have both indoor and outdoor seating - both with a view beautiful view of the water and islands. Reservations are highly recommended.
