Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Pier 54 offers a charming lakeside setting with "great outdoor" seating, live music, and accommodating service. Enjoy a "relaxing view of the Lake" while savoring popular dishes like the lamb burger and pork green chili. Though lively, some note the music can be loud. Overall, a "delightful" experience.

    We really enjoyed the restaurant. Tranquil evening with live music overlooking the lake. Food was decent, service was not great (we think our server forgot about us). We will totally come back in the future!

    Spinach and artichoke dip and Mac and Cheese are great! Fries are a bit spicy.

    The musician absolutely ruined what could have been a great evening on a wonderful patio restaurant. We twice asked the manager to ask the musician to ‘turn it down’. He was far too loud for the small space, and his singing was not that great. My friend and I could barely hear each other over his loud amplifier. The manager said that she couldn’t do anything about it, even though other patrons also complained. I finally asked the musician myself to ‘turn it down’, and he ignored me and told me to be more respectful of his craft. His music should be ‘background’ for the dinner venue, not blaring like it was some rock concert. Horrible experience.

    Had a wonderful time at Pier 54. We ordered the calamari, lamb burger, and bacon wrapped shrimp skewers. The calamari and shrimp skewers were a bit chewy and over cooked but the service and drinks more than made up for it. I wish I had remembered our servers name but she was extremely friendly, helpful, and had the perfect timing visiting the table. She made our night out to celebrate Valentine’s Day wonderful. Would go back to try a different appetizer and drinks to enjoy the company, music, and sunsets.

    Food and service were good. Two piece band was too loud and it was impossible to hear anyone at our table. Other than the noise level everything was good. Outdoor, so dress accordingly.

    A great go-to for date night. Nothing too fancy but still a nice ambience right on the water. Love the live music. You have to try their pork green chili, delicious.
