First off, we were a party of 9 and had made the reservation 2 weeks in advance. Alex was a wonderful server! It was very unfortunate that management had him as the only server for the entire restaurant and was getting no help as the night went on. We received our drinks in a fairly good time and as they were ready, we received appetizers. The octopus salad was not good. The octopus was rubbery and not edible. The meatballs were tasty as well as the crab and artichoke dip. Several of the main dishes were not made with the proper base ingredients (the lobster in the risotto was rubbery as well) not to mention that the kitchen took FOREVER to send our dinner out AND forgot a dish completely (even though there were 2 others of the same dish). This was brought to the attention of the manager and she did come over but it left a sour taste that it took so much for her to finally get in gear and help Alex out.

First off I want to say that this place has a beautiful setting... Inside and out! It's located on a lake and there's a captain that comes around and asks if you would like to take a boat ride. Nice touch. I have eaten at this place three times now and the food on a scale of 1 to 10 for me is just a 6 1/2 or seven. The drinks however, are another story. Every drink that I've had so far has been delicious. I love craft cocktails, and they have an interesting menu. I will be back for drinks and atmosphere but maybe not so much for the food. By the way, every time we have gone, the service has been exceptional. I just wish the food would improve.

Mother's Day was here! Omg! What a fabulous buffet. Searching for a wonderful ambiance. We found it! This place was amazing. Parking was easy right in front and free. Doors opened at 11am. We were promptly seated. The view from our table was nice. Inside but felt like you were outside with all the Bay windows. Nice for someone that doesnt want to be directly in the sun! (thats all me).Let's get to the buffet. Everything you can think of for breakfast plus some! French ToastWafflesPancakesEggsBaconSausageEnglish Muffin Variety of breads for toastBiscuits and gravyhashbrownsOmlette station Prime Rib StationGrilled SalmonDessertsI feel like I am missing something but I can always edit later. The boat rides! What a nice little treat for $10 you can have them take you around the lake. Of course, On mother's day they took care of all the Moms! Thank you for a wonderful Mother's Day! I would say probably the best one so far! Shout out to whoever picked that menu! So much going on everyones a winner here! Can't wait to come back with my girlfriends!!!!!!

My husband and I went on a date that was very much needed here, and we had reservations at 6:45. Table was not ready. It took 40 minutes to take our order for drinks and food, then another 35 minutes to get our food. Waiter never came to check on us, just brought hs the check 20 minutes after receiving our food.Honestly the view is beautiful, but aside from this, horrible service, the food was not good at all. No flavor, I added salt myself to be able to eat some of it. Was saving my appetite for this place and all for nothing. Manager did apologize for it all, but nothing was done about it. Would never go back, or recommend this place.

Great atmosphere and view. The staff is extremely young and inexperienced.The heirloom tomato salad was made with cheap cherry tomatoes. The Risotto was seasoned white rice, the Chicken Saltimbocca was overly dry and extremely bland. Not even close to what it’s supposed to be.While the staff try’s hard it’s clear the the owners and kitchen staff are cutting costs and no longer care about customer satisfaction nor menu quality.The exterior to lake windows are filthy, burnt out lightbulbs everywhere, disgusting bathrooms. There’s a chance we will try again but initial impression is avoid at all costs!!

We had a really nice experience! The patio seating on the water is gorgeous. Our server, and the food we're great! The Charcuterie board was the star of the show. We look forward to trying the rest of the

I see a lot of reviews that mention poor service. This was a different experience we had. Our waiter had gotten called in that day and did a fantastic job. The manager spoke to us with respect and kindness. He made us feel welcome. The ambiance is great being next to a lake.The food was pretty good! We had the charcuterie board, and everything on it seemed fresh and tasty. We also got mimosas (a brunch staple). The juices we picked were grapefruit and mango; both of which were very refreshing. We also ordered the crab dip and bison burger. Crab dip was a great appetizer, a little overpriced for the amount you get. And the bison burger was kind of bland. Other than that, it was a great experience!

The view is the best! It's such a great location. The salmon was perfect, just wish it was paired up with some potatoes or etc. Pasta dish was okay. Octopus was interesting but wouldn't get it again. Would definitely return to try more of their appetizers and maybe a charcuterie board, and for that view!

We sat right on the ledge of the patio closest to the water right at sunset with a bottle of champagne. Had the Seafood Risotto which was amazing! Great variety of seafood and opted for the lemon risotto instead of the saffron which was very fresh and lemony and it paired great with the seafood. The Rockefeller oysters were tasty and cheesy, only wish there were more of them! My boyfriend got the short ribs which I thought had a nice flavor. It was our anniversary and the server gave us the tiramisu which was perfect. Great date night spot!
It's a gorgeous venue that was perfect for a first date brunch outside by the water. Such a shame though, the poor service overshadows the beauty. The servers inside were just standing around chitchatting while one girl had the whole patio. Didn't get the "one team, one mission" vibe from them. Such a shame because the food was AMAZING, namely the breakfast potatoes. I'm convinced they air fried them because they were insanely crispy on the outside.We didn't get a chance to do a boat ride because our server forgot to ask the guy who does them before he left if he'd have time for one more. I was a little disappointed but it gives me a reason to return and see if things have improved!

I really gave this place a honest shot..I’ve been here 5 times as I live close by. Beautiful space/Venue/water view. Decent drinks. Absolutely terrible service and the food is just as bad. You will see in the other reviews that it takes 20+ minutes to get acknowledged (that’s true). Food tastes old/stale/etc (that’s true). Skip this place and head next door to Pier54. P54 has amazing service and food. Also heard they have the same leadership so not sure where the disconnect is. Get it together, Lido!

We go here because the cocktails are great and there is real lime juice for margaritas. The back deck is chill to hang out on and the people are very nice. I really enjoyed both the tuna and especially the meatball appetizers. Great marinara. Captain Josh will take you on a pontoon boat ride of the lake for $10 per person. I recommend this at sunset. The only things needing real improvement are the tables and chairs on the patio. The wood is dried out and looks like splinter potential. Overall a fun place to enjoy drinks, food and atmosphere.
