Much better than the previous time I came the burger was juicy and the right temperature wish it was seasoned more taste very plain but still overall a good burger. The chicken tenders are perfection and delicious. Mac and cheese was very good as well and the Reuben was exactly how I like it overall was very good.

This charming lakeside eatery offers a perfect blend of cozy ambiance and vibrant local culture. With its inviting patio overlooking the serene waters, it's an ideal spot for a relaxed meal. The friendly waitress enhances the warm atmosphere, while the menu boasts hearty portions of delicious fare. Adding to the appeal, the restaurant hosts comedy shows every six weeks, along with trivia nights and bingo, ensuring there's always something fun to look forward to. It's a delightful spot that combines great food with lively entertainment.

Not impressed! Bartender doesn't know how to make a martini. The man next to us was yelling at his wife. The guys across from us couldn't say 2 words without 1 of them started with F. We are not going back!

2 1/2 *. First visit to this neighborhood spot. I'd been there many years ago when it was called something else.It was a Monday night and the crowd was very light. We ordered non-alcohol drinks (coke, water, tea). I asked if it was fresh brewed tea, the hostess assured me it was - and perhaps it was, but all of our drinks tasted weird. I tried the water and it tasted like something out of an old well - strong, sulfur-y, mineral-y...they really need something to filter and deodorize their water. Though not a fan of pre-bottled tea, I'd have preferred it to this brew.The service was less than spotty. We placed our food order and didn't see the server for nearly 25 minutes. Finally salad and Cole slaw arrived and the server disappeared again. Coleslaw was fair. My daughter tried her side salad and said it was undressed. We peered all over the nearly empty restaurant and did not see the server anywhere. I finally hailed a lady bussing tables and asked her to get our server. When they arrived, my daughter said her salad didn't tastes like it had any dressing. The server said it didn't, because she didn't ask for dressing (?). - (Nor, for that matter, did the server ask what kind of dressing she'd prefer...)I ordered the perch dinner with rice as the server wasn't sure what vegetables they had (could only come up with broccoli and lettuce (?)). Daughter ordered pasta, Son ordered chicken tenders and fries. Perch and rice was decent, though unlike every restaurant perch dinner ever, it was served without so much as a lemon slice or tartar sauce - I'd had requested those, but the server went to their secret hideout . My daughter's Greek pasta was okay, though she said it tasted like something you'd serve as a kids meal. The server said my son's tenders and fries were coming up. We waited and waited, my daughter and I started eating while he waited. We finished our meals and still no tenders - and of course the server was nowhere to be found in the interim. Finally the tenders came with profuse apologies. The server said there'd be no charge on these. The tenders were over-cooked and had a lot of breading/waste. I helped with the fries. They were crispy and would have been great, but the oil tasted a bit old like something you'd get at the carnival. The ambiance of the place is fair to decent, nice view of the lake, and I hate to give bad reviews to small, independent establishments, but if the shoe fits...added one star for the comped tenders. But they have some work to do. I wish them the best.

I went there to eat to test the place out and I really enjoyed the food the drinks and the waitress did a really good job they were really friendly.

Usually like this place, but overall experience each time seems to be slowly declining. Came during happy hour. My wife and I were the only people in the dining area yet we waited 15 minutes to receive our drink orders. When the server eventually brought our drinks, she asked if we wanted menus, completely forgetting that we had already placed our orders with her when we ordered our drinks. Grabbing dinner somewhere else, I guess.

Bar staff that night was not great, waited too long to even get a cocktail and then took their time to come back to take my food order and the bar was not busy. The wine is awful/cheap. Could get better wine and stay away from California wines. The food has been pretty good so far and the beers from the tap are col which is great. I will try it again, just hope next time the bartender is better.

1. food, typical bar food, , 2. service extremely slow, dont expect them to come back and check on you or see if you need anything, food came out at different times. never got item and had to have it taken off the bill, dont get the stir fry, (friend of my daughters said it was bad, but I gave it a shot and its mushy, rice extremely mushy, vegies a bit overdone. 3. Ambiance --for great location on the water, reminds me of a VFW hall. could be better. Music playing loud, but muffled inside, as if a club was next store and you can hear the music loud but cant make it out. Went to bed and woke up thinking about how horrible my experience was that i had to leave review since it bothered me.

Welcoming vibe, great barmaid, friendly staff, food ok. Suggestion: Change the lighting temperature in the main dining room. Dimming back 7K lighting doesn't make it more intimate, it just makes the lighting like a dimmed warehouse. Go with a warmer lighting temperature like 3-5k.
