Watersview Restaurant

Another great experience at Watersview, on the lake last night. We had 2 appetizers and it was more than enough for the 2 of us. We shared the Tomato Caprese, delish heirloom cherry tomatoes with buratta, so creamy and flavorful and the fried ribs.!I didn't like the sound of "fried ribs" but just order them, they were tender fall off the bone fabulous! Our waitress told us we'd like them, but we loved them instead ! Service was on point- the place was packed but I could sit and watch the sun setting over that lake every day, such a beautiful setting ! Well done Watersview. We will be back!

Great food especially for a "lake" restaurant. Pork Tenderloin was tender and flavorful. The Ahi Tuna appetizer was also good. We had friendly, quick service. The view of the water is beautiful at sunset.

Wonderful time at Watersview. We arrived around 245 and they were serving their lunch menu. We asked when dinner started which was 4pm- but we told we could order appetizers. We decided to do so and wait for dinner. We ordered 3 to share and they were all SO good. The calamari and seafood dip were my favorites. We stuck around and the waitress took our dinner order a bit early for us - and we both selected an entree. Both were wonderful. This was a weekend trip, not sure we will be in the area again- but 10/10 recommend!

My mom picked this place out for her birthday dinner and luckily they had a private area that could host our party of 20+ people. It was nice surprise to be seated in the private area and you could walk out on the deck to view the lake, which was beautiful! The waitress assigned to our party was really nice and I hate that I can't remember her name. It was pretty warm in the area despite the numerous fans but she pulled the shades down and that helped a little but not too much.The menu is pretty limited and the food was was overpriced for the quality. I ordered the mahi and cleaned my plate because I was starving but I've had better and several others in the party said the same.

Visting friends on the lake, made it in time for a photo moment of sun setting to the west...reservation, nice table, vino selected, each chose his/her animal to consume...I ordered a fillet mignon (barley medium), broccoli and a baked potato....on the menu were French fries (tuberosum), mashed potatoes (tuberosum) and baked potato (tuberosum)...alas a filet did not allow/warrant a bake potato???? Me thinks the chef/cook should have a few extra tuberosums for the known reservations of the evening. Food Lion is around the bend...There was a Lady that provided live acoustic songs; a delight for the evening...

Stopped in first time for sunset on the lake, birthday cake and coffee. Really disappointed and insulted. Music blasting, can't hear yourself think much less speak! Definitely can't hear the friend right next to you! Waitresses screaming in your ear and trying to headbutt your face. They are unable to stand up straight! Probably because they couldn't hear me either! BUT: Great cake and good coffee!"Our owner controls the sound from his house." Yeah, right! You won't see me there again! Beautiful location, good parking. Chair in the ladies roomhad been busted out, so you can't sit down on it. Pretty looking place, but typical North Carolina rudeness. Just don't. Can't recommend.

At Lake Gaston for annual lake trip that me and friends make every year the weekend after the labor day.Service was great but my main dish left something to be desired. I ordered their Smoked Chicken Wings and the Captains Fried Platter.The wings were awesome and would so get those again. I also had a piece of Tuna sashimi and a piece of cast iron sweet potato cornbread. Yum! That cornbread I could have ate the whole little skillet myself lolIt was the Captains Fried Platter that was just not good to me. I got the choose two (Rockfish and Shrimp).The fish was huge and the shrimp were plump but the batter on the both was just so bland no seasoning and the batter was just falling off. No amount of tartar sauce was helping. I just could not finish eating.I gave the rest of my dinner to my sister's boyfriend and he also thought the same thing. I would not get that dish again, but would happily get the wings if go back there next trip.

I'm so offended by what I just experienced at this restaurant. A group of my white friends were talking with a group of young black men who we were having a great time talking football. They had a table of food and a glass of water fell of the end of an unbalanced table. The owner came out and cleaned to water up; no big deal. We bought them a round of shots. These guys had the one shot we bought them no more. Then the owners wife walks over and flags them and hands them carry out containers and tells them "they had to leave."We were perplexed by the experience. There was no reason for that to happen.

The service by Cameron was excellent. The food was very delicious and the ambiance was great overlooking the lake.

Took over 35 minutes to get drinks even with open tables. Servers were OK management was horrible. Had a party of 8, they asked to split us in half so we said no problem at all, there were 3 open tables around us we could've been seated at, they then pushed an 8 top together right next to us. Id definitely explore other options on Lake Gaston.
