This aunt&#8217;s family is spread out all over the place, so they got together in Niagara Falls for a bit of a reunion (this was the first time everyone had been together in 10 years). The official birthday dinner was at The Love Boat on Victoria Ave and we were invited. I was trying to enjoy myself with the family, but I couldn&#8217;t help but make some mental notes so I could post them (even if it takes me 6 months).<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, the food was excellent. I had a steak dinner and my wife had some pasta. The steak was very good, and the garlic mashed potatoes that came with it were amazing. My wife&#8217;s dinner was very good as well (she said she&#8217;d order it again). The prices seemed a little high, but were not outrageous.<\/p>\n<p>You will either think the decorations are quaint, or you will think they are outdated. I thought they were quaint; my wife thought they were outdated. The place was very clean, but the inside obviously hadn&#8217;t been updated in some time. It probably would have looked perfect at some maritime location. I guess it did seem a little out of place in Niagara Falls.<\/p>\n<p>Some people are reluctant to go to non-brand-name restaurants as they aren&#8217;t sure what to expect. If you like to venture out, then give The Love Boat a try.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/accessniagara.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/02\/20080216_love_boat_front.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"20080216_love_boat_front.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/accessniagara.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/02\/20080216_love_boat_full.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"20080216_love_boat_full.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/accessniagara.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/02\/20080216_love_boat_sign.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"20080216_love_boat_sign.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back at the beginning of February one of my wife&#8217;s aunt celebrated her 80th birthday.
