This is a great place to for a casual lunch. Located on Tonawanda Island in North Tonawanda right on the Niagara River.

Went to dinner at Shores tonight and since it was so pleasant we asked to sit outside. After a short wait our table was ready. When the weather is good, they have live music outside most nights. Tonight the couple was very good singing a lot of familiar older tunes for the packed outside. Sara can really belt them out... More

This is one of the worst restaurants I have eaten at. The view doesn't make up for the terrible food and service. I won't be back.

I have only good things to say about this restaurant. We arrived at 5:45 on a busy Sunday evening...beautiful weather...so quite a crowd.

If you want stuffy, prentious service and 5 star food, save your bananas and go somewhere else. If you want to hang... More

Who would have thought this spacious waterfront experience would be at the end of a dismal commercial road?? They have such a great set up for waterfront dining & entertainment. Even though the band that was playing was so loud, it was hard to carry on a conversation. But the place was packed. Mostly with an over 60 crowd who... More

We went for a visit on a beautiful weekday afternoon and the place only had a few tables. I didn't realize how large the inside and outside of this place were. My wife absolutely raved about the watermelon martini. Even though it was 85 and sunny - we decided to try the 'award winning' stuffed banana pepper soup (as we're... More
