Reviews for The Pier & Back Porch in Syracuse, IN
Excellent food at the Premier Resort Destination of Northern Indiana. We were there to late to enjoy the sunset over Lake... Wawasee, but ambiance at the Pier and Back Porch is still worth the trip! The restaurant is family friendly and the menu offersmany taste tempting delicacies! The hardest choices of our night was deciding what to order. And, we can't wait to go again! Read more
Beautiful scenery and environment! Although the food selection was very limited, it was delicious! The staff was very friendly... and polite. We did have to wait an excess amount of time for every single thing we ordered. Overall, it took about 45minutes toreceive our food. It's nice to try new things but we wont be returning. The history of the location/building is worth checkinginto also! Read more
Our 'first half' of appetizers, service and a very good beer listing. Everyone enjoyed their entrees. Our family of six were all... pleased with their meal. I really enjoyed the server we had - she was very attentive as well as a great personality. I'd highlyrecommend this eatery in the northern Indiana lake-life area. Read more
Was a beautiful day to enjoy sitting on the patio enjoying the beautiful view of the lake!! Our server was very sweet and... efficient. The food was decent but the portion size was skimpy. We had the porkchop sandwich which had good flavor but couldpass for a kids meal...not worth the price!! Read more
The location is nice. Great view of the water. As far as service & food, it was just ok. We ordered soda & we were served cans.... I expected soda from a machine I guess, for such an upscale establishment. The Fettuccine Chicken Alfredo was $19 & overall itwas decent but the chicken was boiled and the flavor was bland & not very good. I picked around the chicken for the most part.The bartender was talking to a customer nearby about farmers & how they're lazy and everything they do negatively effectsothers, etc. My husband is a farmer and so we just sat there listening as he unprofessionally shared his opinions on the matterwithin ear shot. Overall, it's a decent place to get dinner by the water. Maybe a little overpriced for the quality of food youget & service could be better. Read more
Great scallops and very creamy mushroom risotto. Loved the dock even if it was raining. The service at the bar was excellent. My... only critique is the live band was way way too loud. It felt like a night club at 8:30 vs a laid back experience. Read more
Amazingly good food. The Fettuccine chicken Alfredo was GREAT. Husband got the rib eye & it was seasoned wonderful, but it... had a lot of fat for a $40. Steak. Wonderful eating by the lake. The waitress was very sweet... Read more
Stopped in here after an event and they were able to get us seated quickly even though they were busy and mostly seat... reservations. It is in a hotel but well worth the stop for just a meal. Menu looked full of wonderful selections and the 4things we had at our table were great. So was the apps and desserts. One of our party was in a wheelchair and they were veryaccommodating to make sure we were comfortable. Will definitely stop in again, though maybe next time with a reservation. Read more
