      This is the perfect place if you want to go with a big group! It has food and space for everyone. The food was alright, with the price I was expecting for it to be better but I cannot complain.

      The service was excellent, but the food is very high priced and just okay.

      The brussel sprouts were excellent, but the flat bread pizza was not good at all.

      My main objection to this place is the very high prices.

      Decent service and great view! Would recommend them if your in the area.
      Easy to get to, good amount of parking(unlike other locations) and fast service.

      Food was good, host had a little bit of an attitude when we requested to be outside. She actually argued with me about my reservation being outside. She needs to understand the importance of customer service especially when you have a group of 8 getting ready to spend big bucks on dinner. Other than that everything else was great, I would recommend this place to anyone. We will be back!

      This has always been our favorite place for dinner and I live giving it high reviews but. .... We went there for dinner a few months ago and my chicken Alfredo was so salty I could hardly eat it, hindsight with the prices that they are I should of sent it back but I don't like doing that.

      We were there recently with a group of 9 for lunch and everything went great except I felt that when our server was done for the day someone else could have taken the dirty dishes away. it is also very frustrating trying to get them to answer the phone at times to make reservations.

      I thought it was great food with a great view of the lake. I ordered the surf and turf. It was excellent. I can't wait to eat there again.

      Wonderful service almost every time we went here Friday nights weekly for the season. Thankfully one of the few places in town that has gluten free dairy free options available. One of the best views in town. As you get further into summer definitely make a reservation as they get busy! Next door is great restaurant as well.

      I would have a 5 stars rating if our second experience was the same as the first. First was just 3 of us and it was amazing, food was amazing, service was amazing, and over all great food. The next night we went we were seated out side and the flies were AWFUL. They were all over the table, silverware, glasses, and us. We finally asked to have the fans on and that helped until the food came. Our orders were a little messed up but we were a party of 7, so that's a little understandable. Over all would go and would recommend, but I would eat inside.

      I can't say one good thing about the food. Not sure how you mess up Beet Salad but they did. The chicken breast was dry. The vinaigrette dressing with it was horrible. The beets are not grilled and barely any goat cheese or pecans (that aren't candied).
      The appetizer of crab artichoke dip was not good! It expensive food that was awful.
      Disappointed.

      Smells like vomit 100% of the time. When it's hot, it gets even worse. Food is good, though.
