Chicken Orleans: Saut
éed chicken breast resting atop a bed of smothered potatoes, onion and sliced ham, finished with béarnaise sauce. This is sure to please. Served with fresh vegetable medley @ $14.00

You'll think you're in Maryland not Pennsylvania:
Crab Cake Dinner: Two jumbo lump crab cakes served on a bed of flavorful corn relish and served with oven roasted potatoes and fresh seasonal vegetables @ $20.00.

A Pork lover's treat! Love Chef favorite:
Anise-Scented Pork Tenderloin: Pork tenderloin marinated with hoisin sauce, ginger and anise. Slow baked, then sliced and served with a fresh mango salsa @ $15.00.

Great Pasta Main Course!
Penne New Orleans: Pan roasted white tiger shrimp, chicken and andouille sausage, onion, garlic, peppers and fresh vegetables in a spicy Louisiana cream sauce, nestled over semolina penne pasta @ $16.00.

And the menu goes on with a flavor of New Orleans.

The Waterfront has special music evenings and seasonal barbecue evenings that keep this place exciting and reasonable enough to enjoy often.

Desserts:

Changes -- made in-house. You're on your own.
