Sent 2 meals back. I keep trying with this restaurant but never again. $ 26 for a baked lasagna that was on the specials. It was smaller than the palm of my hand. Worst fish taco's I have ever had. Food is way over priced and poor quality

Great view. Friendly Staff.
The Bads.
Super expensive. $28 Burger (Mediocre). $35 Spag Bog. (Not Good). $24 Fish Tacos. (Average)
Expensive with below average food is not a good combo.
Bottom line. Wouldn’t go again.

Unreal food and atmosphere. I got the mushroom and leak risotto which was fantastic. While I already love risotto my partner does not and even he was mindblown how amazing it was! 100/10

Awesome experience having brunch with my wife today. Our server Merril was great. You will be greeted by a friendly host and we managed to have a window table. Service is to notch and the food was really tasty. Well worth driving to Sidney for this. Coffee was freshly brewed.

Beautiful space, well decorated. The food was very odd. Hibachi shrimp sounded so good, a stir-fry veggie with shrimp dish topped with a weird mayonnaise sauce? Not a good taste. The veggie lettuce wraps were not worth the price and way overspiced.

Come for drinks and enjoy the view but avoid food!

We loved every minute of our time at this beautiful, well run restaurant. We had the lamb sirloin. The lamb and all the vegetables were done beautifully and we enjoyed every bite. We were there on a Saturday night, so were able to thoroughly enjoy the pianist, along with this great dinner.

My wife has celiac so we picked this place to try as they state most things on the menu are available gluten free. It's not often you find a place that has decent options. Their GF pasta was pretty good. They also do GF calamari that was shockingly good. It was cooked perfectly.

I had the seafood tagliatelle(not GF) which I enjoyed quite a bit. Surprisingly filling.

Our server told us she also had celiac and was really awesome going over the menu with my wife.

This place is racist and the service is TERRIBLE!!!!! I know understand my experience after reading other reviewers experience of the waiters literally looking at you but ignoring your requests! We addressed this situation with apprently the only person on site who could deal with this situation - the bartender Rob who was of no help and basically just talked down to us in a condescending manner and didn’t even apologize.

What’s most shocking is that there are countless reviews about the service of this place and it looks like the owner does nothing about this issue. I would never return back here and be sure to spread the word about this establishment.

Edit - to the owners response NO I AM NOT LYING! This was my experience at your pathetic establishment and I stick by what I said. It very much seems like YOU yourself have no customer service skills with all of your responses to customers reviews, so I guess the reflection of your staff is why you received this review! I never needed a response from you making excuses for your staff but don’t ever call me a liar. Everything I detailed above is true and correct. Now that we got that out the way, please don’t waste my time and yours with a response!
