The first table we were sat at was not clean. Then it felt like there was a film on salt and pepper shakers and the second table wasn’t clean enough. The server was pleasant but walked by 4 times and my plate had my napkin and utensils on it and was long since finished. Since there was only 3 tables occupied this shouldn’t be so difficult. Asking for water should not happen, it should be a given. The windows were not clean. The bathroom was pretty dirty with cob webs in the corners and dead bugs on the floor. They need a thorough cleaning. I understand it’s different than wait staff but wholistically the entire place should be cleaned especially in a pandemic and re opening phase.

The food was mediocre. I asked for poached eggs medium. They were super runny and sitting in a lot of water. The toast was barely buttered and I asked for crispy bacon it tasted like cardboard.

For a $16 meal the jam should be in greaves jars or a ramekin. It was the little plastic packs and I had to ask for it. Even in the smallest dump of a dinner they offer jam and pb etc.
The marmalade looked clear like it was expired. I couldn’t find a date on it.

The mimosas were okay. Definitely not $12 worth.

All in all I wouldn’t go back. So much to do to make it more pleasant.

Great food, slightly slow food service.

Birthday!!!

Perfect reminiscing of our stay 38 years ago when we were married

Food was tasty, service was great. We will return.

Great spot...great food. Will definitely return again.

Great view, quiet small patio! Food was bland and not worth the price.

Super tasty food, especially those wonton nachos! Beautiful view too!

The food was good but the place really needs a renovation and updates. Also the amount of bugs that were everywhere was a bit disturbing.

Lovely location. The food was very well made. Our server Ivy was quite lively and explained us the menu quite well. Would definitely recommend this place for its food, views and the service :)

It was a wonderful meal and the service was excellent. It was very quiet and relaxing. This was our first night out since covid and we felt very safe as there was a lot of room between tables. The atmosphere was excellent overlooking the water.

Very disappointed. It was bland and over priced. I paid $4 for 3 clicks of bacon!! They didn't put everything on the Keto plate that should have been there ans when I asked about the fries herbes tomatoes missing they put 3 slices of tomatoes in a pan and served them. Gross. My partner had French toast which was not done properly. It was not soaked in milk nor did it have any cinnamon, just eggs and toast. The mimosas were exactly the same classic and peach but peach and a chunk of peachy tossed in, no actual peach juice. My poached eggs came in a.ramekin stacked one on top.of the other with water in the base. The eggs then became watery!! Very disappointed.

Great place for a bite and drinks on a patio on a nice day

Excellent view from a nice quiet patio. Shared the tacos and steak sandwich, both were excellent. Great spot to have a glass of wine and look at Lake Ontario and the marina below. Will definitely return.

Everything was excellent.

Was our first outing since Covid era. Was nice to be at the Beacon Harbourside for our first start of normalcy.

Food was amazing and portions were excellent. We will definitely return. Shared Thai Chicken Tacos to start - highly recommended. We both had the 1/2 chicken dinner was was fabulous.

Best view in Niagara. Menu offers a wide range of options and cocktail menu is amazing. If you want a great deal and a uniquely delicious cocktail on the waterfront, this place checks all the boxes. A fraction of the cost of NOTL and easily accessible off the QEW.

Great food and great atmosphere! Awesome service and a stellar view.

Nice staff. Good food and drink. Wonderful view.

Our server (Eric) was outstanding! all round great time....

Fish tacos were outstanding as were the Asian dishes. Lovely views of the harbor on a small, quiet patio. Good service and reasonably priced drinks. This place is often overlooked in favour of its larger, more opulent neighbour, the Lakehouse. The menu at The Harbourside is definitely more innovative. Looking forward to seeing what else the Chef has to offer!

Very relaxing and quiet, not busy during lunch time. Great for large groups. Recommend to get the shareable platters!

Great food!...we ordered prime rib and beef tenderloin
Would reserve again.

Beautiful view of the harbour, excellent food and service. Will return!!!

The Beacon has friendly service and great tasting food.

Very nice dining experience! Felt like we were away on vacation and so close to home! We packed out paddle boards and went to explore the shipwreck after dinner!

Great view and wonderful Service. We are regulars at this restaurant as we always have great experiences.

I really enjoyed the grazing platter however my salad wasn't suited to my taste, however my friend really enjoyed it. The patio is very pretty however there was not a lot of shaded outdoor seating when we visited. But the view is very nice, if you don't mind some sun I would definitely check it out

The food is amazing here. The staff are always cheerful. And the view from the patio is unbelievable! It's my favourite patio in the area.

Wonderful evening. A lovely and delicious dinner. We loved sitting in the lower level as it was nice and shady out of the hot sun. Service was outstanding. Beautiful view of the marina and Lake Ontario. ♥️

A hidden gem in Niagara. Food and service is excellent. The views of the lake are incomparable.

We enjoyed a Birthday Celebration at the Beacon, service and food was wonderful

Food was great! View is spectacular on patio.

Overall good, a bit pricey but the lake view was very nice.

Food and service were very good. Lovely view. Felt special as we were treated so well by Ali

This was our first sit-down restaurant (on the patio) meal since March 2020. It was perfect! The food was delicious and the ambiance, overlooking Lake Ontario and the marina, was picturesque. The servers were all very friendly and accommodating. It was an excellent experience ... with additional thanks to the chef and kitchen staff!

This was a fine meal, with very pleasant service.
