    Both dinner and appetizer was not hot when served. Dinner was redone, resulting in partner almost finishing before my meal was redone. Meal lacked flavour Waitress offered desert to make up for inconvenience, which was lovely, but we will not be returning.

    The 3 of us ladies came early for a cocktail before dinner. We had a 7pm reservation for dinner and was promptly taken to the dining room and had a wonderful server Jenna, taking care of us. Jenna made us feel so welcome and treated us like family. We will definitely return on our next visit.

    We had a delicious dinner complete with local wine and a unique dessert. The diverse menu offers something for everyone. Cheers to Chef Jeremy for such a creative offering. Our server Jenna provided details about the different entrees and suggested a unique dessert option. Her excellent service completed our entire experience.

    Beautiful setting over looking the lake especially with the sun shining and sail boats passing by. Food is always plentiful, hot and tasty. Service is friendly with minimal wait times for food to be served.
