Reviews for Canal Port Bar & Grill in North Utica, IL
Went on a Friday early evening. Sat at bar, place wasn't busy.. Server was nice, but service was really slow. I ordered a $12... crab dip that took over a half hour. No cooking, looked like it was scooped out a container. It tasted fine but did not comewith enough bread for dipping. Tasted OK. $7 glass of beer. I used to love this place, seems changed. Sign of the times I guess. Read more
If you order grilled chicken on your salad be aware that it is not a grilled chicken breast made at the restaurant. It is... processed frozen chicken strips that they just heat up. Whether that bothers you or not depends on the person. I didn't expectthat for the high price. The house made dressing was very good though. Read more
A main street place with indoor and outdoor seating. We were a little leary because it was pretty empty inside but to be fair it... was 2:30pm They have a dog menu! The apps came quickly and were good. The fried mushrooms were absolutely delicious and camewith in-house ranch. They were clearly fresh made. The potato skins were simple, just the way I like. They had shredded cheese,crumbled bacon, and green onions and that's it. The menu was varied but not excessive. One of us got the Hawaiian Chicken Saladon small croissants and enjoyed it. It had pineapple, celery, and pecans? I think. The crab cake was a good size and tastedfresh. I liked the taste of the bready filling. The person who ordered it thought there was too much breading and not enoughcrab but she is super picky so I expected that when she ordered. I got the trigger fish and it was fantastic! It was perfectlycooked. I found the citrus seasoning a touch heavy but it was cooked so well that I didn't care much. The fries were fresh andsofter, which I actually like, but most people would find these needing another round in the fryer. Overall, I'd certainly goback. Read more
Good food and drinks. If you come ask Lily to make your strawberry mojito. She has it mastered.
Nice place. Was very tasty grilled chicken sandwich. Costumer service was great. Highly recommended.
Friendly service, good food, very cool building. Me and my fiancé were in town for a short period during the off season. And we... were probably the only guests in town. Canal port was closing but they served us as the only patrons inside. Had wonderful foodand drinks, our waiter was very kind. Read more
We waited over 45 min for our food and it was overcooked and dry (the fish was crisped until you couldn't even taste the fish... and the bun was too crunchy). It did come out hot and the fries were good! The poor waitress was running around taking care ofevery table inside and out. Despite all of that work she was friendly and apologetic! I had the summer mule to drink, which wasquite good! Read more
