This restaurant is lovely! The service is outstanding , the food delicious and the atmosphere is quiet cozy . We enjoyed a wonderful dinner tonight , on a rainy windy evening this place is close to home and cozy . We highly recommended this restaurant! It’s open for dinner Friday , Saturday and Sundays . We will be back soon !
A beautiful hidden gem. Tucked away near a lake. Tastefully decorated. Charming bistro. Excellent service. Scrummy food. The fries were exceptional and the salmon fettuccine divine! Looking forward to a second visit ?

Very enjoyable lunch here. There were four of us and we sat outside at a table with an umbrella. I had the Seaford Melt and enjoyed every bite. The service was relaxed and friendly and the price was appropriate. I will definitely be returning.

It was a hot day but it was quite pleasant there with lots of light but not too warm. The setup was beautiful with both outdoor and indoor seating. The menu was not extensive but every dish we ordered was tasty and well presented. There was only one server but she did her best to look after every table. It was a very lovely experience.
My husband and I decided to try the lunch at the bistro after hearing our friends give wonderful reviews. We were not disappointed! The location, at the tennis club and on the edge of Westwood Lake is beautiful with large trees and an extensive patio. There was only one table in use apart from ours, and we chose to eat inside, in the large airy dining room. Our server was excellent and attentive, showing no signs of boredom with such a small clientele. I had the Seafood salad which was lovely and fresh, ...a large helping of seafood on the plate! My husband chose the smoked salmon fettuccini, which he found delicious. He spent quite a bit of time making sure that he had every last drop of sauce. Both our dishes were served with wonderfully fresh garlic bread. We shared a slice of creamy blackberry cheesecake with a garnish of whipped cream. It was sublime. The prices were really reasonable for the dishes that we had. We will definitely be back. We did look at the dinner menu, which was larger and more varied. High tea is also available at times, with most of the baking being done by the owner. This place is a real gem!
Beautiful setting, great service and lovely food. Great for a special occasion.

Finally able to coordinate friends and venue hours. Well worth the wait. Took us a year to get here. Weather was great, food was excellent our server Beth was professional and a pleasure to be looked after by. Great place to take out of town guests. If you have never been to High Tea this is the place.
Such an extraordinarily beautifull setting overlooking Westwood Lake.The food is 5 star delicious and servings generous.The owner amazing .Thanks Tracey for helping me out to my friend's car after a sudden excruciating painful Meniscus tear to my left knee .
Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options .
Parking: Lots of parking close to the restaurant .
Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible especially on the beautiful flower ringed patio.
We walked along the lake and entered from the rear at about 11:30 with no reservations. We were seated on the deck under a couple of umbrellas and the server advised us that she was the only server and the kitchen was short-staffed so service might be slow. No problem. We ordered Fish (1 piece) & chips and Stuffed mushroom caps and ciders. The drinks came fairly promptly and we enjoyed sitting and talking. When our food came, it was very good. Just a light batter on the fish and lots of seafood and cheese on the mushrooms. Service, food and ambience were good.

What a delightful place for a special celebration. Took my dear friend here to celebrate her birthday. It was pouring rain yet the view of the lake was so mystic and beautiful. The service was excellent and the food was excellent. My friend and I shared half of the Sirloin Burger and half of the seafood salad. Both were fresh, tasty and well presented. Later, we made room for desserts - pecan pie and chocolate-kahlua cheesecake! Fabulous! Highly recommend making reservations ahead of time for this gem. Will definitely return.

We were so impressed for our friend's 80th .It was a High Tea organized by her daughter. We have been to several High Tea's over the years but this was so beautiful and over the top. Tracey made all the food and everything was exceptional! We were so impressed we are going back for another friend's birthday on the 8th of Mar. and ordering off the menu. Tracey this really is a beautiful gem! Thank you
Beautiful dining room, gorgeous view and lovely atmosphere. Unfortunately the food was far below par. I tried the special, a seafood stuffed chicken breast (35$) and honestly couldn't detect any seafood in the dish; let alone distinguish the crab I supposedly paid a premium for.Was hoping to enjoy this spot but unfortunately I won't be returning.

Seafood mushroom caps for an appy. You will not be disappointed. Dinner was amazing. Mediterranean Stuffed chicken and Seafood Fettuccini was off the charts. My lady could not finish it because if all the seafood. We are stuffed. Susan was an amazing server and a delight to talk too. I love that you are not rushed in and out. We will definitely be back. A classy place to enjoy dinner and company.
