Jackalope Bar & Rotisserie

I’ve been going to the Jackalope for years now and always enjoy their Snow Crab Legs entrée or Friday/​Saturday night Prime Rib special. Best part of the Snow Crab Legs is the HOT butter they bring to your table– it’s in a little chafing dish with a lit candle underneath so the butter stays warm the entire time you’re eating! GENIUS! Spinach artichoke dip appetizer is oh-​so-​cheesy! The garlic mashed potatoes are a great side for any entrée and you have to at least take a look at their dessert tray after dinner!
Drinks are great– love their margarita and they have a decent selection of beer and wines. Great for large or small groups– I typically go with 8 – 10 people and have never had a problem with service, just make sure to call ahead for a reservation! Love the views of Lake Erie!

Ok, I’ll round up my rating from 3.5 to 4. We went here for dinner on a winter Saturday night. Service was good, attentive. Menu had basic choices of pasta, seafood, and beef items. Prime rib — which is a Friday and Saturday night special — was very well prepared. The sides, were a little spotty, with the broccoli being overcooked. The fried walleye was very good. Portion size was appropriate for the price. There is a nice selection of beer and wine.
Overall, worth a return trip during the summer.

We had a great time and was able to watch a great sunset over the lake.

A group of ten of us went to celebrate a retirement last week. First off, I would like to say that all the staff we encountered throughout the night were probably some of the friendliest folks I’ve come across at a restaurant. Not only were they friendly but efficient with the orders and were great about separate checks.
We requested the patio and the view was spectacular. We were there for the sunset which was awesome.
The food was good, but not great. I ordered the lobster roll which came with a side for only $ 10. A great deal, but again, it wasn’t the best I have ever had nor the worst.
Would I return? Absolutely, for the view alone; and the friendly staff, but if I had to judge on food, I’m not sure.

My now husband and I were in search of a restaurant that was on the water, served great food and had a good ambience to it for our rehearsal dinner. The Jackalope was recommended to me by a coworker and boy can I tell you how grateful we were she did!
Before renting/​reserving for our rehearsal dinner we decided to check it out on a Sunday evening for dinner. We sat outside on the 2^nd level out door seating area. Our service was great and food was excellent… we were hooked!
Fast forward a bit, that Sunday night we had dinner we immediately booked it for our rehearsal dinner. We reserved the 3^rd floor private dinning room. This is a great option for any private party need you may have. I am unsure on the exact number it holds. It has your own private balcony and private bar with bartender. There is an elevator as well as stairs leading up to the 3^rd floor. All of our guests RAVED about how great the food was as well as the balcony. Only thing I wish they would do or would suggest is to possibly have the «openness» on the 3^rd floor as they do on the main outdoor seating area.
You would think living near a lake, a great lake at that, that there would be more on the water dining options, but there isn’t. The Jackalope is real gem and totally worth the drive!

It’s a real disappointment to come to a place in such a prime location only to receive food that was sub par. The perch that did not taste at all like perch and all I can taste was the under seasoned breaking. The salmon wrapped we ordered was over cooked, all in all it was over priced and underwhelming.
Aside from the bad tasting food, they also have pretty awful service. My wife’s seat had spilled sauce on it, which thankfully we notice before she sat down. When we pointed it out to the server all she did was move it to another table for the next unsuspecting patron.
So do yourself a favor and just avoid this place.

Food is very tasty, good size portions. Prices are too high for the area. During my second visit, they were out of the martini I wanted, calamari and one margarita, so it was very disappointing, which was the only reason I came back for. Service was great. The patio needs a little updating.

Food is average at best. Price a little high. Restaurant should be named «Jackass» after managers crappy attitude toward customers. I was part of a party of 14 and none of us will ever go back.

DO NOT GO HERE… owner is such an asshole… my aunt was unhappy with her meal and instead of apologizing and asking her if he could get her something different he proceeds to yell at her husband telling them is was fine and they shouldn’t be complaining… made a huge scene and embarrassed himself in front of a restaurant full of people… absolutely no customer service from the owner… then I over heard him complaining to other people about us… NEVER WILL EAT HERE AGAIN and he told our large party of 20 that it was fine and didn’t need our business

The food here is pretty good. On Friday and Saturday they have a great prime rib. The view is nice especially around sunset

The lobster bisque should be called a heavy cream soup with a lite essence of lobster

Came in on a dreary Sunday afternoon. Sat on the patio which was nice. Sever wasted no time in bringing is drinks and taking our order.
Patio has a couple of garage doors they can bring down when the weather turns crummy. Even though the space has never been used for vehicles (it’s on the second floor), one of the doors has a hole cut into the bottom of it for a tail pipe vent. I thought that was funny!
No TVs on the patio, but a descent sound system playing some non-​offensive tunes.
Started with the spinach artichoke dip. Came to the table in a crock with a layer of cheese on top, like a French Onion soup. The cheese was still bubbling and the dip was loaded with cream cheese too. It was outstanding.
Had the chicken siracha soup… was in a heavy cream more like a bisque, and it was delicious.
Had the lake perch dinner as the entrée. 5 pieces of perch, nicely breaded and fried crisp. Again, outstanding. The fries were good, but nothing to write about as was the coleslaw (I think it was Grandmas slaw from Giant Eagle).
They seemed a bit busy for the staff they had, but I wouldn’t call it slow. Just not fast. I will come back here in a heartbeat.
