Taco Bay

Excellent food, excellent service, great prices for the island! People who are complaining about the ice cream need to realize that it’s not soft served and make sure you don’t order your food or ice cream when you’re waiting on the ferry!!!!! Time management is key people! The food is fresh and not Taco Bell!!! They’re open until 3 am, and deliver!!!!!

Taco Bay is one of the best hidden secrets in Put in Bay, Ohio! They are located at the top of the Miller Ferry doc with a stunning view of the lake off their nice size patio deck with some real chill music, and some of the best street tacos, guac, and salsa you will ever eat. Almost good enough just to ride over to the island just for these. We went there every night after everything unwinds. (take in the sounds of the waves mixed with great music in the background and ohh not to mention the quality food and ice cream and I'd say the best value on the island. Very delicious food! Our experience here was made extra exceptional based on the owner himself (who is almost always there overseeing that everything is as good as it can be!) coming out talking with us and giving us a little bit of his background and how he started Taco Bay. Not to mention discussing his pride in his quality of fresh ingredients, (he leaves the island to personally pick out his ingredients, for those of you in the restaurant business understand what a task that is.) and  where he came up with the idea. He also gave us some samples of some of his other menu items. Bottom line is if you are in Put-in-Bay,  this is a must stop spot on your island trip!

First place you walk up to once you arrive from the ferry. Food is decent but the service was dreadful. Would serve one person ice cream but then refuse the next because they didn’t start their menu until 230 or 3. Would only tell me “look at the menu” when asked a question. 👎🏽 Hopefully this place gets some better staff to represent them due to this prime location because otherwise it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Eventually got a breakfast burrito which was actually one of the better ones I’ve eaten. 👍🏽
