My boyfriend and I went here for our Valentine’s Day celebration. It was the first time for both of us being here. We sat out on the porch. The honey butter is amazing. The surf and turf was delightful. The chocolate flourless cake was thick and fudge like and wonderful. Jeremy, our waiter was very pleasant. Can’t wait to go back in the summer and sit on the lawn. It was very romantic and the soundtrack couldn’t have been beat. I wanna know what station they were playing?

The food was prepared perfectly. The portion was small for the price. To be fair, it was an all inclusive 5 course Valentine's menu. The main course was a 4 oz piece of prime with a 4 oz lobster tail. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was great. I definitely would recommend it for a special evening.

Love this place. A true gem. And the fireworks across the lake 3/4 way through our dinner in January didn't hurt the whole experience! Service excellent. Be prepared for $$$.

Food was very, very good. We had a lovely family dinner for the holiday. Table next to the fireplace. Service was a little slow but honestly during the holiday season it was expected. Would definitely recommend.
