Tried this restaurant for the first time today and it was excellent! Location is beautiful. Service was great. Many drinks to choose from and the food was fantastic. We tried the muscles appetizer which was delicious. I had what was probably the best baked cod of my life. Everything from fries to shrimp Po boy to all of the sides was amazing. They dont overdo it with the spices yet food has just the perfect amount of flavor. They also have live music every weekend and its great, not too loud. Just a nice background so you are still able to have a conversation. This place is open year round and we are definitely going to be back for more. It was totally worth the 40 min drive from IL. Highly recommend!!

Decent service, good food, great view from the patio – which is very pet and kid friendly as well. I went for the beer, but youve gotta get a margarita flight! Just only order the mango habanero if you are serious about spice. A little pricey, but a unique and enjoyable experience overall. I would definitely go back.

Wonderful place with very nice waitstaff and very helpful with the menu for things to suggest. The food here was very good as well and everything tasted great! I’m sure I’ll stop by here again when I’m in the area!

I would say drive down and park in the parking lot to walk to the lake but choose somewhere else to eat. The server wasn’t very attentive and didn’t ask if we wanted anything else. We went to go get them for service because the staff was hanging out in the back rather than checking on customers. The brisket was too dry and many of the seasonal taps were out. All the sauces were fun to try though! I think we were meant to get cornbread but it never came. I wouldn’t come back.

Decently priced grill food with a good view. Fish fry was good, burger was a little on thee burnt side but still enjoyable. If you’re. Looking for a good spot with a view;this is the place.

Super relaxed place to have a nibble. By nibble I mean super portions. I had the brisket sandwich with onion rings and it was good good. Im not a brisket pro tho ;)

Food is generally pretty good. Ambience and view of the lake and harbor are absolutely breathtaking. Service was very good. The only drawback is they dont have very good ventilation. You leave there smelling like a greasy restaurant. Change that and you have a real 5-star place.

Really liked the space and they sat our party of 9 quickly even though they were busy. Loved the selection of bbq sauces and this is the first place that we have seen margarita flights, so we ordered two. Food was meah... My friend ordered Cloppino, he didnt like it. He had a whole explanation why, but I didnt try it so I can only share his comment that it tasted overwhelmingly of parsley. I ate my whole reefpoint burger, dipping every bite in the selection of sauces. The focaccia chicken I was told was really dry. I would come back and try more items if given the chance. Our bill was $189

One of few gems in Racine. Racine is, well, to be honest, kind of a dump. I was pretty shocked by the status of this city. But this place is a diamond in the rough. Good people, good beer, and although we didnt have dinner here, our Bavarian Pretzel app was quite delicious. The rest of the food we did see was really delicious looking. The view is fantastic. All in all a good place.

Yes to the best bloody Mary in Racine, I have only had two others in town so its not a great study but it is the better of the three. No to the Lavender Lemonade. I have been here only four times and not super impressed with any of the food with the exception of their mussels (best broth), but for the most part the the services is great and the atmosphere is relaxing and fun- everyone is super down to earth! The fact that they allow dogs is a huge a plus!!! (With the exception of the jack-A that hit his dog because the dog spilled his Pina Colada you should not be allowed to own a dog)Sidenote: margarita flights are amazing!!!! Dont order the lime, you already know what that taste like. Cotton candy is surprising delicious!

We went there last night for a Friday fish fry and the food was delicious! The brisket tots were really good too. However, our server was the best we have had anywhere in a long time!! We’ve had great servers at restaurants but Branden was absolutely hilarious!! His personality is perfect. He also made sure our drinks stayed full and was on top of everything even with it being extremely busy. Definitely ask for his section when you go there.. you won’t be disappointed with the service or the food!

Atmosphere is tops at this harbor view eatery and steps from Lake Michigan. Eat dinner and then go for a walk on the pristine lakefront causeway and relax on the lake view raised platform while you talk about your life goals or just absorb the view. The local craft beer selection was excellent. Prefer something more exotic, they have you covered. Lots of barbecue meat options and fish selections. We will be going back!

I love the atmosphere but thats about it. I ordered the shaved prime rib sandwich with a jus. That was nothing but a bowl full of grease! I told the waitress and she responded by asking if the sandwich tasted good. My husband ordered the bacon wrapped meatloaf. Asked waitress to hold the garlic mashed potatoes and possibly get corn instead. She stated that there is no changes to menu allowed. Wow, okay. I guess it is way too much trouble to NOT put mashed potatoes on a plate. Will not go back. First time we tried this restaurant we ordered the perch dinner. Horrible! Dry and over cooked. Done!

Had a bit of a wait on a Friday night, but we expected that. Good beer choices, along with interesting cocktails. Hubby got a German beer, I had a Side Effect cocktail, both were delicious! He had chicken quesadilla, I had chicken tacos. Both were huge portions, made with smoked meats, with surprise jalapenos in the food. They were HOT! Way too much food for both of us, but tasty. Servers were running like crazy, but did great. Worth a visit!

Just a great place to go for lunch, food was good and great portions. Have a great view of the water and boats coming in. Justin our server was on top of everything, checked in a good number of times without being too pushy.I hade the Glazed Pork Chop and it was great, I like a little pink in my pork chop. The baked French Onion soup was awesome and was a meal itself, a Patty Melt, Fish & Chips rounded out our meals and all were great. Great area to being pets and walk around after eating being right on the water. Id definitly go back to try more entrees and enjoy the area.

Review №22

1 star wouldn’t recommend. The view is the only thing worth going to this place for but even then I’d rather just stand outside and enjoy. I’ve been here 3 times and each time I’ve left disappointed. The food is bland, dry and season-less. Drinks are made cheaply and too sweet. The service is average at best. This is the last time I’ll be back here, I’ve given this place too many chances.

Review №23

We were definitely underwhelmed. This place was a recommendation for our anniversary, but we hate here the day before.. luckily we did, because this is not that type of atmosphere. It is a loud, lake party atmosphere. The food was bland, hence the reason for the low stars. Usually waterfront restaurants have fresh fish, but my shrimp was not fresh and the po boy sandwich was just a shrimp sandwich with sauce on the side. Highly disappointing. My husband had fish and chips that were soggy because they were undercooked. We had a good time and the view is pretty, but we didnt go back for our anniversary or another dinner. Id go here for the bar and to hang out with people, but the food is a total pass.

Review №24

Beautiful place, gorgeous views, great menu items, friendly service. The food is not 5 star. It is either too salty or too bland. Friend order the Mac and Cheese and he was not super excited. I ordered the fish and chips. It was fine. However, tried the jambalaya and it was very salty. I will certainly go again and again as I really love the experience in this restaurant. Oh and of course the fireplace!!!

I had the fish fry and it was very good. My wife had the garlic shrimp skewers. They were phenomenal. My son had a burger and he said it was very good. Are server was very attentive and we never had to wait for anything. It was a very good meal and evening. The Z Park Dark beer was the perfecting pairing.

Review №27

My first time there Captain Shane from Schools Out fishing charter recommended it, three of us had the Brunswick stew which is brisket, pork and other meat Im guessing that is leftovers in a tomato like soup, and also had cheese curds and shoestring onion rings which was also good.We all enjoyed it washed it down with a couple of beers. Went there after a day of charter fishing but will definitely be back just to go to the restaurant and try other dishes, I think the pricing was reasonable as well. Our waitress was attentive.

One star for the shining location and stellar views. I imagine that’s why they get by with bland food and syrupy sweet cocktails. Do not recommend. Not worth it, just take a walk by the lake instead.

Fun Place on the WaterfrontWe came for the atmosphere and the view of the boats in the marina. A visit here makes our summer a little more memorable because of it. The nautical decor and large windows made for a pleasant dining experience. Our meals, prime rib for her and pulled pork for me, were very good and moderately priced. They have an absolutely huge beer menu along with several custom cocktails and wines. But my whiskey old fashioned, priced a little high at $8.50, was mostly cherry flavored soda. You shouldnt be able to see through it that easily. My beer was outstanding, a Boat & Oars Ale. Dont expect to carry on a conversation with friends as the place is noisey noisey. Good people having a good time, though. The highlight of our evening was having Sofie as our server. Her and the rest of the staff were very well trained, prompt, and helpful. I asked about a certain beer and she went and asked the bartender for a description for me even though she was swamped with customers. Top shelf server. We will return.

I would have given them a 5 star rating. The soups were great tasting but not hot enough. The Brisket sandwich was great and they have a great selection of beers and other drinks. The view was great as well. Are server Carly was very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable on the food and drinks. We will be back there again. I would recommend the Reefpoint Brew House.

Went for dinner and enjoyed our visit. Our entrees were prepared and served nicely. The atmosphere was good (a little loud) but as we expected. Waitress was very polite and effecient. Only drawback was the jalapeno Mac an cheese had a sour taste I didnt care for (at all).We will be back sometime in the future.

I was one of a party of 4. All 4 lunches were different, but rated excellent by all. My brisket was the best Ive had in my life. Beers were great and service very good. Only corrective could be more use of a carpetsweeper and wipe down of the brisket sauce bottles. We will be back.

The food and atmosphere was good...that was about it.Orders were wrong, $34 tacked onto Bill for the wrong orders, in which they had to go back correct 3 times and was still incorrect.Took 2 hours to get food to our table...which would have been ok, if we didnt have 3 kids. Overall, a very rough first experience.

Review №66

Wanted to try something local w/ a great view. We got there, was told there was a 45min wait for outdoor seating, but never given a beeper. Finally after seeing many other people get beepers we asked for one. About 45mins later we were walked over to the table that was “supposed” to be for us. Only to find that another hostess has seated a large group for 12/13 year olds. They apologized & left us standing for about 10 mins & we had to go find the hostess to figure out where we were actually supposed to sit. They told us our only option was to split up our group between 2 different tables (2 families w/ kids, not gonna work). We asked to pull 2 tables together & they said they were not allowed to do that… so we sat inside. It was super loud, not what we were expecting at all. Food was okay…had to send back a drink & a side. The waitress was awesome, had no problems w her ! Very disappointed w the hostess station & the way they handled an issue that was their fault from the beginning.

Review №97

I keep wanting to love Reefpoint Brew House, but I only end up liking it. The service is usually pretty good, and if you go during non-peak times they are very quick. The food can be surprisingly good, but its a little more expensive than we expect every time. The ambiance is great though, and the menu is diverse. The beer selection is good. I think it amounts to always feeling like we paid a little more than we should have.

The fish was okay, but still had some of its bones and fish scales which was not amazing. But the place itself is pretty cool and the variety of beers is pretty good. And the view when there is good whether is amazing. Service was good at all times.
