Description

Nestled in a beautiful location, this restaurant boasts stunning views and a diverse menu, featuring popular dishes like lakeside chicken, clam chowder, and expertly prepared fish. However, the service appears inconsistent, with several patrons reporting long waits and inattentive staff. Despite the delicious food, many visitors have expressed disappointment over poor service experiences, including mismanaged orders and a lack of attention from bartenders. While some diners rave about the flavors and generous portions, others suggest steering clear if attentive service is a priority. Overall, the combination of excellent cuisine and mediocre service creates a mixed dining experience.

The restaurant offers amazing views, excellent service, and delicious food. This was our first visit and we are so happy we discovered this place. We enjoyed dishes such as lakeside chicken, clam chowder, nachos, curds, fish plate, and roast beef plate - all of which were very tasty. The honey garlic sauce was particularly delicious. Additionally, there was ample parking available.

The steaks here are top-notch and the classic cocktails are pretty excellent as well!

This restaurant has a self-serve bar but they struggle to get it right. We placed a food order and waited, only to find out later that our ticket was left on the bar and never made it to the kitchen. This was really poor service. It's disappointing to see so many unfinished plates on tables around us. Luckily, we didn't receive or pay for the food.

If your hungry or thirsty this is not the place, the bartender would rather schmooze with her friends than do her job,sat for at least ten min, nothing not a word or service, I will not recommend this place to my friends because I don't want to be embarrassed.Service: 1/5
