Amazing selection of well prepared seafood, designer cocktails, and daily specials. Best salmon I've had in a long time.

Good food! Gluten free buns & vegan options available! Friendly staff, BEAUTIFUL view year around. They did a great job designing the layout to take full advantage of the lake view wich can be seen from almost any seat.

Very nice ambiance , but do your self a favor and do not order the Captain’s Chowder . The dish was so salty that it was nearly inedible nor did it match the menus description as it only came with potato and a bit of salmon

Great food and great service. Thank you Miriam!

Always great service and atmosphere

Great tasting food in an upscale atmosphere. Not much of view out to the lake on a dark, snowy winter evening but one can imagine the amazing views to be had when the lake is visible. Only a view of our own reflection in the window tonight.The clam chowder was amazing. The blackened chicken tortellini was delicious. Cost of entrees and drinks are upscale but not ridiculous. If you like rum, try the salvarey light.

Lobster roll & calamari were worth it!! Attentive, friendly server. View of sunset and colors of dusk, over the lake, priceless!!

Their food is really good & wait staff is very friendly. They have amazing desserts. I would highly recommend trying them for a lovely evening dinner out!!?

We enjoy coming here for the lake view. In the Summer they have quite a bit of outdoor seating. Inside they have a whole wall of windows facing the lake and the views are very relaxing. I think the best way to enjoy this restaurant is to have a drink and an appetizer, or light meal. The sunset last night over the lake was spectacular. We did not take my advice above and we had dinner. My wife had the salmon and it was a bit dry. I had the Osso Bucco and it really had not been cooked as long as I like. I like it falling off the bone and this wasn't too that point. The seasoning was good, but I would say the whitefish dip appetizer was the highlight of the meal. The actual dinners were good, not great and the view was magnificent. The service was very good and we enjoyed the experience, I just wish the food was a bit better.

The food was outstanding. The service was lovely. Would definitely go back.
