Bartenders struggle to keep up with everything the food is so good the place is always packed and drinks are good just seems like they need one or two extra people

This is a great local restaurant. They will batter, bread, and fry your Lake Erie catch for the freshest fish served anyplace!

It what I call a Five Star Dive bar, excellent food and service with reasonable prices. But it's not a tourist trap, it's tourist trap food and servers for the local small town community.

Our family was up for weekend from Pittsburgh and we decided to give The Boot a try. We were so glad that we did. The food was exceptional and Sara our server was warm, friendly, and very attentive to our needs. I highly recommend eating at The Boot, you won't regret it.

Came in with my large family of 14 to have dinner...I always have a good time but with such a large party, we had amazing service. The food was great. I love coming here when I'm in town visiting.
