   We had four different meals. Each one was excellent. Your Gouda and chive tater tots were an adult version of a childhood classic. When we looked at the menu we were really anticipating a "fancy" place. When we pulled up we weren't sure. But I guess the outside of a "speakeasy" should look unassuming. The food did not disappoint. We will be returning.

   All but one of our party complained that the food was not tasty. Almost all had fish, which should be good since the restaurant is located near Lake Erie, but none complimented it. One had filet which was very good.

   We had a deliciously wonderful. Everything was served timely by our waitress & she was especially friendly and informative on the history of the building. Prices were a nice surprise. Will definitely be going back & we have already suggested to friends.

   The menu has some limited offerings. The prices were higher than expected. Waiters were friendly but not very attentive during our meal. The restaurant interior is very nice but the food is average. Wintertime may be difficult for entry as the front door opens directly into the bar. Patrons seated near the door will be very cold!

   We've been to the Blind Perch many times and always found the service to be energetic and engaging. This past visit was the second visit when that just wasn't the case. It was also only the second time the owners weren't involved up front. We'll probably wait a while before we return. There are a lot of choices now in Vermilion!

   Not worth going to anymore. I've been three times. Once in March and in April, and it was awesome. Service was great and knowledgeable, especially about the variety of local wines and beer. The food was absolutely fantastic. Chef Brian is awesome. The chef even came out to speak to customers about the cooking process and get their thoughts. Well, he left in June for reasons I don't know. Don't waste your money going now. It's terrible, the service sucks. My girlfriend had to go get our waitress away from the bar and her friends. Rest of staff slightly better. But not what it was. Food is awful yes awful. The chicken thighs are disgusting now. We brought them home to our dogs. Not even any ice in the water. Booooo

   We ate at this restaurant twice and both times it was excellent! The walleye chowder is wonderful-I highly recommend it. The steak is sold by the ounce - it is cooked to order and delicious. We were very happy with our dining experience. Reservations are suggested - easy with Open Table!

   The Blind Perch is the perfect place to just drop by for a drink, appetizer or a fantastic meal! I love to bring friends there and have suggested it to several out of towners. Food is great, the service fantastic, decor is lovely. Looking forward to the next visit!

    All in our party enjoyed their food, but it is too noisy to carry on a conversation. Prices are considerably above normal for a gastro-pub. I would have put the noise level rating higher if it would have let me. This is a serious issue that moves this restaurant from "I'll definitely come back" to "I'll think long and hard about it before coming back".
