Visited here recently and overall enjoyed it. We got seated quickly. Food was pretty good, my husband loved the pretzel (but I wish the cheese was hot). Chicken chili was tomato based which was different, but still good. Mac and cheese is delicious. We sat on the deck and loved the view. Service was pretty slow (we sat there for 10 minutes before even being acknowledged and asked about drinks and he never asked if he could get anything or how our food was). We'd probably visit again for the view alone.

The food and service were AMAZING!!!!!! I had the short rib grilled cheese, and I would definitely have that again. My moms has the stir-fry and the fish and chips. They loved both of them. Mac and cheese was delicious and the drinks were awesome. The view was the best part!!! I don't recall our severs name, but she worked the patio on 6/27 and had blonde hair in braids. She was absolutely wonderful and had excellent recommendations.

Ordered a Quiche, was given a sad wet omelet. If you’ve ever seen or just googled a quiche, you know that’s not it. The rest of the Menu is generally simple and flavorless. 3 stars only because the waitress was kind and the view is wonderful. Bring your own food but stay for the tap beer and the view?

This place had so many good reviews, so we thought it would be nice to try it for Father's Day. They do not take reservations and we knew this in advance; we also expected it to be fairly crowded since it was Father's Day, and sure enough we waited about 45 minutes for a table, but again, no surprise there. The view was lovely and we were able to enjoy it throughout our meal because our table was outside. Service was good - not great - and our server was very pleasant. Food was just okay at best. I had the prosciutto fig pizza and was very disappointed because it appeared they just used a pre-packaged fig jam of some sort, which was not very tasty, and the prosciutto was clearly very overcooked, almost burned. My husband had the chicken club sandwich; he said it was just okay. My daughter had the chicken bacon ranch pizza. Her entree was served about five minutes after the rest of our food yet she did not receive any kind of apology from the wait staff. Hers was decent but she said she would not order it again. We also ordered a grilled quesadilla from the child's menu. For a whopping $7, our toddler granddaughter got a very small tortilla (probably 5-ish inches in diameter at most) with only cheese in it and a small side of applesauce. Seriously? Super overpriced. Needless to say, there is really no reason we would make any effort to go back again. Not even the view would make it worth it. Such a bummer especially after reading so many other good reviews.

Quite possibly the worst stir fry and chicken and waffles we’ve ever had. They “forgot” to put in our order then waited for like an hour total for food. The waitress was devine and none of it seemed to be her fault. But not a good experience at all.

Party of 3 had lunch on a Friday afternoon. Not sure about parking. The Parking Lot right beside restaurant was marked for "Condo" use. We parked on the street around the corner and it was fine, but...do you park in that other lot/garage?? We did not see signs for Incline House parking. Oh well. Anyway....took some pictures outside before going in. Beautiful view! We had been here before about 9 years ago and always wanted to return. We sat inside as it was just a bit too cool for outside dining for us. (We did not have sweaters or jackets with us) Next time outside for sure! We ordered a steak salad (huge), Fried chicken sandwich and a chicken club sandwich. All very good and big portions. Our server was nice and attentive. It was not very crowded during this lunch time. Maybe with it being out of the way...way up a hill a few miles from downtown...it is better suited for dinner rather than a business or quick lunch kind of place. Last time we were there for dinner and had a 2 hour wait. I don't think they take reservations.

Great food, great service and great views. Highly recommended. Also, watched a young man by the name of Jake who I later found out was the manager. His attention to detail, professionalism and they way he interacted with his staff and patrons was really refreshing to see! If I started a restaurant, I’d hire him in a heart beat! Thanks for a great lunch Incline????

Even on a gloomy day the view is worth the visit. Our server was attentive, and the pretzel was soft fresh and perfect. The mustard had horseradish in it. The chicken tenders had a little kick to it and but we think the herbed butter kind of threw off the waffle.

Waited over an hour for disappointment. The presentation was very well done but the actual taste left so much to be desired. It was pretty to look at but my taste buds were disappointed at best. The view is amazing but they didn’t put any thought or seasoning into the food to go along with it. Would not recommend and will not be returning.

Gluten free friendly! Many options. Visiting here from Arkansas and wanted to see a beautiful view and a tasteful meal. We decided to choose Incline based on the reviews, and it did not dissapoint!Our meals were all prepared well and decently quick for the quality. I had the Caramel Apple Smash alcholic drink and it was AMAZING!The pretzel was soft and chewy and fancy coming out on a hanger. Loved the pimento cheese. Not a fan of horseradish in the mustard but its typical and I am odd. Haha.The chicken and waffles was what I got and it was one of my all time favorite dishes. I have never had savory , sweet, and spicy but in such a delicious fashion. Wow! Our friends had the onion rings, mac and cheese, gluren free chicken sandwich, and Philly cheese steak.We sat outside and even though cold weather, the heaters kept us warm and feeling fine. Loved watching the sun set with great friends in a warming inviting atmosphere. Get a few pictures on the balcony before you go! We will be back here on our next visit. Thank you. Must come to try out.
