Lake Pointe Grill - Springfield

Jambalaya was perfection. Seafood platter okay, but had too much spinach. Salmon cooked well, as was the root vegetables. Brownie was a bit undercooked, but heavenly. Raspberry cheesecake was the yum.

We 've been coming here for 2 years relatively consistently. The food is much better quality than the typical diner fare around Springfield, with a more thoughtful approach of ingredients and menu choices. It isn 't 'fancy ' per-se and the atmosphere is very relaxed, but the food is good, staff is always pleasant, and we always walk out glad we came.

Have patronized this restaurant a few times over the years when on vacation and our return travel brings us through Springfield. We were greated immediately upon entering and seated. The waitress took the drink order and allowed us time to look over the menu. We ordered, received our appetizer which was good. Then our food arrived. Mine was delicious. My wife's, not so much. But, manager comped the meal. Bottom line, great service, a glitch in otherwise good food (it happens). Would go back.

I dined in and also took out the next day. Very good food, service great and price (seems high no days) reasonable. Highly recommend.

Came back after one year (traveling through Springfield), and food is still delicious. Erica was an excellent server--bubbly and awesome all around. Had the special, pork pad Thai (medium), was definitely spicy, but still delicious. My boys had the Mac n cheese, that was awesome, too. Bathrooms were clean and women's had the baby changing station.
