Pickle Bill's Lobster House

What a fun place!! Great drinks, located on the marina water, the decor is so fun and service is great. The crab legs were everything I wanted!! Not frozen plastic like at all. Will be going back this summer!

Hmmm. I had really been looking forward to coming here. If you are just going for the ambiance, it will not disappoint. If you're going for the service, it's fine. If you're going for the food, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I was here with my parents and my son. We sat inside and had a table near the window, and the view was quite nice. It was not busy on a Friday at lunch and my son enjoyed all of the alligators, scuba divers, mermaids, and other novelties that made up the decor. As for the food, here is the basic rundown:Fried dough with cinnamon butter: pretty good, but I don't like filling up on bread before I eat my mealLobster bisque: solid with big chunks of lobster, but not exactly a creamy bisque. More of a runny broth than a typical bisqueCrab-stuffed mushroom: it is just one big mushroom for like 14 bucks, so I am not sure it is anywhere close to being worth it. The filling is not that great.My mom had a shrimp and fish combo, which was fine, but not stellar. I had the $25 red snapper special. It either could come blackened or with a lemon butter wine sauce. I ordered the latter. But instead it came with just butter in a plastic ramekin. I was told it was lime-butter, but I'm pretty sure it was just normal butter manipulated with food green coloring. It was a weird shade of green that you really don't see in nature. I did not taste any lime. When I warmed up my leftovers the next day it left a messy dark green splotch on top of my fish. My dad ordered the "house special" of the grilled Lake Erie walleye, which was supposed to be grilled and come with the lime butter (i.e. The mint-green food-colored butter) but instead it came fried, and served with tarter sauce. My mom ordered potatoes as her side and my dad ordered the pasta salad. Both of their sides were missing until we asked for them. Drinks: my dad enjoyed his margarita and I enjoyed my mojito. With the tip the bill was around $200. This seems outrageous for lunch for three adults and one child. Speaking of whom, my child had the hot dog. He said it was good. That may have been the best part of our meal. I had a hard time determining the number of stars. Probably more like two stars, but I am being kind and rounding up to three. Nothing was terrible, but nothing was anything special either. Our server was very nice.

Traveled over 3 hours to give Pickle Bills a try... (Thanks TikTok reels) really cool waterfront dive. Eclectic decor and plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. we sat under the covered potion outdoors as it was a beautiful day. our servers were very attentive as several in the party ordered all you can eat items. They kept them coming until we couldn't handle anymore. Starter was the fried pickles. These had a nice panko crust that was very crisp and had a great crunch. two sauces were served, one was ranch, the other was a unique barbecue ish sauce that complemented the pickle. I had the fish and scallops. The fish was just okay, good flavor, but too much breading for my taste. The scallops were the star of the show! large in size and the perfect amount of breading. Cool place to visit if you find yourself in the area.

Been meaning to get up to Pickle Bill's for the longest time, finally got there today. Cool ambiance right on the Grand River, you could eat outdoors or inside (we chose lt latter). Wife ordered blackened salmon, she was "thumbs up" on her dish. I was gonna order crab legs (AYCE special), but instead I ordered the "Sampler Platter' (walleye, Erie perch and shrimp, all fried). All pretty good, esp the perch. A tad greasy, but hey, it's a fried platter so...there's that. Also ordered some crab cakes on the side, quite scrumptious with generous portions of crab. Our server, OTOH? LOL, if I had a "football team of waitresses", this one would never see the field, never leave the bench. Pokey and inattentive, but we had time to spare so I wasnt fussin bout it. But still. Overall experience was positive enough that I'll be back to try some other menu items

Love Pickle Bills! It's a must go when it's nice outside and they have all your eat crab legs. We actually love going when it's busy, because we enjoy the outside bar while waiting for our table.

Went to pickle bills for my first experience today. Ambiance was amazing. Grabbed a drink upstairs on the nice patio while waiting for a table. Once seated in a lovely wooden style two person table our server ROSE was amazing. Had a starter of mussels which were by far the best I have had in Cleveland, served piping hot. Pasta salad was to die for as a small side. We got the all you can eat crab legs. Rose did a wonderful job clearing and make shore we had plenty of crab and butter. As far as drinks we got the mini fish bowls with an awesome PB cup to take home. Service was top notch. Rose was by far the most humble and personable server I have ever had. Definitely plan on visiting again this summer 2024 and hopefully Rose will be my server.

Our Anniversary experience started horribly. Our waitress made us feel like we were a bother. She never came to ask us how our order was, she brought my wife cold corn and cold butter. We asked to speak to the manager. Kristen came over and she was outstanding, she offered to remake my wife's order and everything was cooked to perfection. Our new waitress was Chancey, and she really made sure everything was tasting good. Then Kristen surprised us with champagne and cheesecake as a complimentary anniversary gift. That's what I call World Class Service.

Always get a consistent crab dinner. Service is slightly above average and the ambiance is great due to the lake view.

Food was comparable to what you get at a Chinese restaurant. Overcooked. Under seasoned
