Upper Deck Restaurant

Upper Deck Restaurant
341 Bayview Ave.
Put-in-Bay, OH 43456 419-285-3695 http://www.the-boardwalk.com/

Since 2007, the Upper Deck above the Boardwalk Restaurant has been one of the most prestigious places to dine among Put-in-Bay restaurants. Wear your finest board shorts and formal flip flops for indoor dining with a 180 degree panoramic view of the harbor of Put-in-Bay. As with all Boardwalk locations, the lobster bisque is the star attraction. Patrons also tend to favor the lobster mac and cheese, enjoying the decadence of mixing the most illustrious seafood with humble comfort food. But for a the grandest experience that Put-in-Bay has to offer, get the Alaskan King Crab Dinner. It is a full pound of Alaskan King Crab legs served with melted butter, fresh lemon, coleslaw, and a bowl of the famous lobster bisque. It is truly a meal fit for an Alaskan king.

Upper Deck Specialties:

  • Marv’s Surf and Turf Burger - beef, turkey, black bean, or chicken patty with lobster claw, Hollandaise sauce, asparagus, arugula, and crispy fried onions
  • Book Book Shrimp - lightly breaded and deep-fried shrimp tossed in mysterious “Book Book” sauce on a bed of arugula
  • Boardwalk Lobster Roll - Maine lobster mixed with Dijon mustard, celery, mayonnaise, and fresh parsley
  • The Commodore Filet - 8 ounce filet of beef topped with Hollandaise sauce
  • Cinnamon Roll Sundae - a fresh baked jumbo cinnamon roll, cut in half and filled with vanilla bean ice cream and topped with vanilla frosting, fresh whipped cream, and caramel sauce


The Upper Deck also offers gluten-free options, which the Main Deck does not. After dinner, step outside the Upper Deck to Rita's Cantina Margarita Bar and Deck for the island’s largest selection of tequila. Or stay at the Upper Deck for an extensive menu of wines and martinis. The Upper Deck is also within a short walk of a Jet Express terminal. Come join the action at the Upper Deck!
