    We celebrated my husband’s Bday while watching the beautiful moonlight over the lake at our window table. Delicious plank salmon and curried cod. Katherine, and all the wait staff were impeccable. Topped with a creamy key lime pie and a cheesecake. Will return again when they open in the spring.

    Food is great. Drinks/cocktails are solid, some are bit pricey but there’s enough options to get what you like at a decent price. The servers are very polite and friendly. The little bar room is nice and cozy too

    It is a wonderful place with great food and great ambiance. The evening was warm, and we enjoyed sitting outside by the fire pits after a delicious dinner. The property was lovingly restored. The restaurant overlooks the lake. The cuisine is modern Mediterranean. We come here a couple of times a year. The first time was thirty-six years ago.

    We were visiting our son at Cornell for family weekend. We wanted to take him to a nice dining experience. From the moment we sat down, the service and ambience were fantastic. Our server Adam was attentive and gave great recommendations. The apps and food were great and we never felt rushed. Overall a great family dining experience.

    Dinner without a view It’s sad to leave a negative review on such a beautiful restaurant but our experience was truly disappointing. We arrived at 5:00 for our 5:15 reservation. We were seated in the front room of the restaurant, remote from the beautiful lakeview. We inquired about being seated at one of the over dozen unoccupied tables overlooking the lake. The manager informed us that these tables were not available, despite telling her that we would not be dining long as we had tickets to an event. We even requested to sit at the next table in the same room which offered a partial lake view, and she said no. As anticipated, after we finished our meal, there were still several available lake view tables. She seemed to have no interest in trying to enhance our guest experience. Surely she could have accommodated our request but she chose to be inflexible. Poor management skills. I will be hesitant to return.
