The food there was to die for. It was so delicious! I recommend this amazing little restaurant to any one and everyone! It was a little bit pricey, but then again, everything is these days! The busers + servers were especially good-fast, and kind! Keep up the GREAT WORK! : ))

Appalling! No other word can quite describe the experiences of my husband and I when we decided to visit this restaurant. We both ordered the traditional "English Style Fish and Chips" off the menu. What arrived at our table can only be likened to a serving of Captain Highliner fish. As far as the 15 or 20 french fries that came on our plate, well suffice to say I've had better french fries served with a combo meal at McDonalds. I am still toying with the idea of writing directly to the restaurant to lodge a complaint and further, copying my correspondence to the Niagara Parks authorities. There is only one positive comment that can be related from our experiences at this restaurant and that is that in my husband's words, the looks of the waitress should more than make up for any disatisfaction with the food. He was wrong and that's an opinion that we both share. Cute just doesn't cut it when your paying such exorbitant prices for fish and chips out of a box.

SUPER SHITTY service plus my wife and i had noticed the placd was freezing. We complained and the sever judt used the excuse the heater was broken. It was durring the slow season so we just assumed they turned the heat off to save money. The food was disgusting and WAY over priced. My bill with my wife was 145 and we didn't each much.
Go there if you just don't like the taste of food !

The food was amazing. Served family style with individual courses. The mussels were out of this world in a homemade tomatoe sauce. The pasta cooked to perfection and my tastebuds got to ride on a tidle wave of flavour. The seaffod platter was a large portion with a variety of everything. So if you can not make up your mind you can try a little ov everthing. The service was like I was being served by my own family!!! The dim lighting allowed my dining experience to feel as if I was actuaaly out on sea. It was an intimate and pleasurable experience for my fiance and myself considering we just got engaged that weekend. Well done Love Boat well done!!! I suggest everyone tries The Love Boat Way for Two leeaves you feeling full and satisfied.

The food at this particular establishment was terrible. All of their fish is frozene even though on the menu it says flown in weekly. The service was also terrible becaus ethe server didnt come to our table right away and repeatedly forgot to bring us food and drinks. She was also making strange noises at the bar area which was weird and not to mention uncalled for as this is a supposed family/casual dining restaurant.

This meal was terrible. Our waitress was very nice and friendly, but while good food can sometimes make up for bad service, the reverse isn't true. The escargot was just the snails in oil, no cheese. The shrimp in the cocktail were the size of shrimp ring shrimp (SMALL) and only 5 of them for $5. Then the 'Prime' rib was tough and mushy at the same time (don't ask me how they managed that). Everything from the starter bread through the main course was terrible. And the meal for 2 people came out to $63 with no alcohol. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, THERE ARE PLENTY OF GOOD RESTAURANTS AT THE FALLS!

we eat here when we come up north my wife enjoys the food as I do we have been eating here for the last 10 years A must eat when you are in the Falls area

My wife and I have visited the Love Boat with our friends frequently several years ago. At that time, we found it to be a pleasurable experience. On our recent visit to the falls, we decided to return to the Love Boat and celebrate our friends 25th wedding anniversary. Our visit this time was rather disappointing for several reasons: 1. We had to ask to adjust the air conditioning as it was very warm at the establishment (which apparentlty has been tempermental all summer-why wasn't it repaired?). 2. A simple table food, like the bread basket, didn't arrive for a very long time. 3. Some of our dishes were dirty; 4. My son had asked for the whole lobster, which was at market price. We expected a cost of $40-$45 for the meal, maybe $50 tops. This meal was $60.00. No attempt was made by the waiting staff to inform us of this outrageous price before hand. I guess the old caveat "Buyer beware" really applies at this restaurant. 5. The chairs we sat on had torn seats and some were unsteady. All in all, I would not recommend to anyone this establishment. The quality of the dining environment has significantly deteriorated.

this was one of the worst dinning experiences of my life! The experience did start out good though with a friendly server my scotch that I ordered was about a 1/4 of an ounce with ice that cost 16 dollars my girlfriend asked for a cosmopolitan and was given an apple martini the server was again nice and gave us two free drinks which were shit anyways. The seafood there was worse than a chinesee buffet I couldnt even finish half of my dinner without gagging on there expired seafood mussels = nasty lobster tail was harder than a rock and the rack of lamb also hard as a grizzle steak. The people were nice but the food blows horribly and so does the cost you might as well go throw your money in the sewer rather than come here you would probably get more enjoyment out of that!

By far the worst meal I have ever had! The pasta, ordered by my daughter, was tasetless. My husbands seafood, lobster, was like rubber. My fish, flat on the pallet. High prices for poor quality. There are many far better restaurants in the Falls at these prices...walk farther east!!!

my wife and myself felt like fish and chips.well it so bad captain highlaner fish and a kid's size macdonald fries. it was very sad never never again

Sucks ballz, Cheesecake fell apart, fries were cold and meat was undercooked.

One of the worst experiences of my life.
Owner's son/Manager had a hissy fit when I brought up unethical advertising about their specials
They mislead you with their special's advertised on the front. 
Along with 2 mains, we ordered the escargot app, with the impression that it was the advertised "special" price. When the bill came, it was not the advertised priced. He said he assumed we wanted the regular one b/c we had the menu on the table and we were ordering from that one. There wasnt even a "special menu" nor did we point to the menu. 
Then he said, "oh come on, your meal was a good deal." And I replied back, "it's not about the price, it's a matter of ethics." And then he said, "I cant believe you are fighting for such a small amount." And I replied back again, "it's about ethics."
And reluctantly he changed it,stomped away, only to THROW the BILL on our table afterwards.
NEVER GO BACK. HORRIBLE SERVICE. THIS IS COMING FROM THEIR MANAGER and OWNER's SON.
Aside from that, our water never got refilled our water- as wait staff never came to check on us until our main was finished.
The place was dusty.I had noticed someone had previously wrote " DUST ME!" with their finger in the dust on this giant steering wheel.

My husband and I visited The Love Boat, and were sorry the second we did. The waitress seated us right against the window, at the World's Smallest Table, took forever to bring us our soft drinks, which was 2 ounces of soda, 10 ounces of ice, and $2.50 each to boot. Refills were extra, and took forever as well. The breaded shrimp were barely ok, and my husband's Crab Fettuccine Alfredo had imitation crab and a disgusting sauce. Awful is the only word I could think of, and the bill for two people was $62.00. Go across the border to the Olive Garden, it's worth it. Avoid The Love Boat at all costs.

We were lured in by the "free kid's meal" if you by an entree. Well, there were only 2 choices for the kids to chose from. Then, we waited for 10 minutes for someone to come and wait on the table and no one came. We got up and left!

The calamari was the best calamri we have ever had. The wine was resonably priced. the dinners were hot and fresh. The service was very friendly. I woould reccomend eating here!!

Prepare for one of the most intimate dining experiences in Niagara Falls. The lighting, food, and atmosphere combine to create the perfect jumpstart for an evening of romance. I realize that I ordered ham in a seafood restaurant, but that's only because i don't get out much and we had already eaten at Applebee's once that day.  highly recommend The Love Boat for something exciting and new.

Wow, I was so impressed, service, cleanliness adn food, was fantastic, I am coming back as soon as I can. Thank you for making my experience of Niagara FAlls dining, wonderful.
I have eaten at restaurants all over the world, and I am very happy with all.

The Crab and the Scallops were both excellent. We do NOT go to Niagara Falls without eating here. Consistently good food and service. Not cheap, but worth it.

This is the worst dining experience of my life. I have never eaten at such a horrible restaurant, ever!
The food took too long to come. The waitress was not attentive, took forever to take our order, water, and bill.
The food was ridiculously overpriced for crap. I never ate such crap in my life.  Our bill was $100 for food that tasted like it should be $10.
To start off, the steak tasted and looked like really bad hamburger meat. There was no flavour. My rack of lamb was tough and overcooked. There was hair in my mom's sole and there was no flavour in that either.  The baked potato that came with the food was just plain. No fixings. We had to ask for sour cream, and the waitress didnt leave it at the table. I will never go back again. If it was just crappy food, I could live with it. However I cant live with crappy food that costs A LOT OF MONEY. I am still upset over this dining experience

I've been to this restaurant a few times without any major issues. However, the last time I was there, when I received my order of mussels, I noticed that they had a bitter taste, and the smell became quite offensive. I told the waitress that I thought the mussels were bad, so she took them back to the chef, and returned about a minute later with them. She told me that the chef insisted that they were fresh, and that the mussels had just arrived from the coast. I rather reluctantly ate them (shame on me), and I paid for it by having diarrhea for almost a month.

My wife and I had an amazing experience with some friends at The Love Boat. We started the evening with some cocktails and then moved to a fantastic wine with our dinner. Our server was a young man who was very personable and extremely funny, he paid great attention to details and was always attentive even with a full section of tables. Our appetizers were some of the best I’ve ever had, we had the fried calamari, smoked salmon and steamed mussels. The portions were more then generous and the ingredients were simple, fresh and tasty. We all had a salad witch was full of freshness and a great balsamic dressing, but the best was yet to come. Our main courses arrived and I think all our faces lit up, the lobster was a bright shiny red cascading over the plate picked right from a saltwater tank, the New York steak and lobster tail was cooked to perfection, the seafood combo was full of goodies, plenty of hot butter to dip in and the lamb was amazing, cooked to perfection and covered in spices with this garlic citrus sauce. It melted in your mouth. This dinner was a feast for a King. We finished the evening with some coffee and we couldn’t resist not ordering some dessert, so we split a deep fried cheesecake and a chocolate muffin filled with melted chocolate ganache. It was to die for. 
I can’t wait to return.
