When we are in the area, we always stop there especially during the summer. We enjoy the bigger crowds and meeting people from all around. The food is about average but what do you expect for a typical bar. More

The bayview is close to home so we go there frequently, the food is fair, but the place could use a good updating. They keep it clean but since it is older it at times looks dirty. Service is fair, when they have a large crowd, service can be very slow. The food is above average but pretty good for... More

The Bayview was recommended to us by the owners of the motel where we were staying. It has a tavern/bar feel but the views of the lake and the food make this a "must" place to eat. It also has a game room so our children gave us a much needed break after dinner. Good food, good prices- it is... More

I love this place, and have been going for the past 5 or 6 years with my friends when we stay for a long weekend in the summer. It has become a tradition with us. The views of Sunset Lake are amazing, especially at sunset (lol). The back wall of the restaurant is all glass. The restaurant is divided into... More

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011

This place came highly recommended, but was not at all impressed with the place. Food was ok, but had many teenagers working the tables. Service was almost too good to the point it bordered on annoying. Each item seemed to be brought out by somebody different. More of a "family" restaurant than an adult eatery. More

The entrees were poorly presented and skimpy. The scallops - all 8 of them were tough and gritty and devoid of any flavor, came with about a tablespoon of coleslaw and a few greasy fries. The ribs were equally underwhelming. Seems like you should stick with burgers and wings. Great view of the bay and our waitress was very attentive... More

I would recommend this restaurant. We only waited 5 minutes to be seated, and our server came over immediately to get the drink orders. The menu selections was abundant and all our meals were very good. Salmon, Scallops, Stuffed Flounder and the Broiled Fishermans Platter were our choices. There is indoor or outdoor seating. The A/C wasn't running very cold... More
