   Our meal was excellent, as was the jazz band. Hefner Grill is well priced for the quality of the food.

   Nothing but great things to say about our experience. Service, ambience, food, fantastic lake view and gorgeous sunsets…One of our favorite dining out locations.

   While the food was excellent and the service was great, we were seated in a small room with chipped paint and scarred wood molding and not a scrap of decoration on the walls. We reached our table by having to walk through a service area/kitchen. After leaving we exited through another door and found ourselves in a beautiful decorated high end restaurant. We were there to celebrate our anniversary and were totally underwhelmed by the ambiance of where they seated us.

   I wanted to take a moment to share our experience from our visit to Hefner Grill. We had a reservation for 4:45 PM and were seated a little after 5 PM. While our server was absolutely phenomenal and provided excellent service, we unfortunately experienced a delay in receiving our food due to a misplacement of our ticket in the kitchen. We truly appreciate the manager coming over to apologize and for the effort to make things right by compensating our meal. However, by the time we received our food—closer to 6 PM—we opted to take it to go. Unfortunately, the quality of the meal did not meet our expectations, and we left feeling disappointed. We wanted to bring this to your attention as we were really looking forward to our dining experience. We appreciate your time and consideration and hope this feedback helps improve future experiences for your guests.

   everything we ordered was as described and very satisfying; the exception was I ordered a glass of wine with my meal and it came when I was half way through my meal The manager gave us a dessert as part of an apology

   The service was absolutely insanely good. We had so many different servers, everyone was there to help, our drinks were NEVER empty! Everyone was so kind and the food was even better than expected! 1000/10!

   Hefner Grill is usually one of our go-to spots, and we always leave impressed. Last night, though, things just felt a little off—likely due to the Valentine’s Day rush. We had a late reservation (booked weeks in advance) for after 9 PM, and the restaurant was more packed than we’ve ever seen. Understandably, service was slower, and while our server was friendly, the attentiveness wasn’t quite there. The real letdown was the food. The crab dip and wine were solid, but the pork chop and sides were just okay. The gumbo, which we were excited to try, ended up being the biggest miss. It was served in a massive bowl but had barely any rice, lacked spice, and was light on shrimp and other proteins. Without a side like cornbread, it just felt incomplete. For the price, we expected bolder flavors and a more well-rounded dish. The atmosphere was still nice, but the crowd made it feel more chaotic than the usual relaxed experience we love. It wasn’t a bad meal, just not up to Hefner Grill’s usual high standards. We’ll definitely be back—hopefully, next time, it’ll be the experience we know and love.

    We went for Valentine’s Day and had a great time. The crab dip was amazing, and the main entrees were just as good. Service was top notch as well. The only downside was the 20-30 minute wait between the app and main course, because it was so busy. Good experience overall.
