    We enjoyed a wonderful meal and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Cooperstown. Both the swordfish and prime rib were excellent as well as the sides served with the meal. The ambience was great, and I imagine the view of the lake in the summer months would be amazing.

    Cocktails are usually delicious but not today. Different bartender on this day. Food also took much longer than usual. Still a delicious burger.

    Salmon was amazing, Himylayan rice was dry and flavorless, small amount of broccoli and wonderful citrus breure sauce. Waiter seemed to forget us as did busers and tables for two are on top of each other.

    The Valentines Day special menu and feature was excellent. We really enjoyed the three course meal for two. Everything was paired well and the service was excellent.
