I am more than shocked by the positive reviews for the Waterfront's food! 2 years ago my friends and I began a regular Sunday beach day where we spend about 3 hours on the beach before venturing to the boardwalk for a late lunch. The Waterfront is the closest restaurant to where we go (Ocean Park Beach) and we went there about 4 times in a row. Each time all 4 of us have not liked our food, have said ""we have to remember we don't like this place!"" but kept going because they have a great beer selection and the location is ideal, and we're not really picky so we wanted to give it another chance.The final straw was when I ordered the fried fish sandwich, bit into it, and there was actually no fish inside. I bit into oil and beyond crispy breading. When I told the blonde haired waitress she looked annoyed and asked quickly if I wanted something else. I never complain at restaurants and if this were my first time, I definitely would have given it another try, but I've never had a good meal there and that was that for the Waterfront. In fact I now live down the street and my friends and I joke, ""Hey, wanna go to Waterfront for lunch?"" I wish I could buy the place to turn it into a restaurant where the location and drink selection have good food to match. I tried! I see that the owner reads this site: PLEASE HIRE A NEW CHEF!!!!! I really want to like this place, but I want to eat when I go to lunch!
Pros: Great location, beer selection
Cons: The food makes me want to gag
