Highlands Bar and Grill

Disappointed. Did not offer complimentary bread or dessert with your meals. Miss you Howard. Service was good. Portions are respectable as well as the prices.
. I Ordered the bone in prime rib. Ordered it medium revived it rare. Meat was tender, lacked flavor. I could not finish it. The Au-Jus was terrible. Mash potatoes were lumpy and lacked seasoning as well. Gravy was ok. For a 61 dollar meal, this new owner kitchen only come to 50% of the standards Howards grotto had. I'm not going back any time soon.

First time visited, Saturday morning breakfast. Very nice food and atmosphere. Visited the dinning room rather than the bar. Good breakfast choices.

Good food good prices

Great food great service,the previous review was while it was still Howard's Grotto, like most people that aren't raving about the bar,or the view that doesn't exist I'm disappointed with the portion and quality of the food served. The prices have went up and something as simple as a side salad wasn't served with the prime rib. There wasn't sourcream or butter with the baked potatoes or horseradish for the prime rib.

I went on July 23, 2025 about 4:15 PM. I sat there. I asked the lady if they’re open and they sell food. She said yes you can say wherever you want. I waited there for about 15 minutes and the people that work there seeing me that I just got there sitting down waiting for me to get some food and nobody would come to help me or take my order I think they don’t want to stay because of my brown color. I think and they looked racist to me

We had our holiday party there tonight and everything was perfect. Not one complaint from a group is pretty good! The fish was the hit of the night and the desserts were scrumptious.

This is the only restaurant in Lake County that offers fine dining options. I can't think of another place that has Filet Mignon and Lobster. They also offer Rib Eye, New York, and Prime Rib.
They have an extensive menu with many items you would expect as well as many you might not.
Yesterday I enjoyed one of their specials, Oysters on the Half Shell, and I always love their Fried Calamari.
Great food, and great people.
I highly recommend this place for lunch or a fun evening out.
I'll be back again, and again

My ribeye was cooked perfectly.tasted like grass fed beef.wasnt fond of the gravy on my mash but ate it anyway.my family had a ribeye & a tbone both cooked properly...so hats off the chef and a 5 star review for a definite hole in the wall pub.
Was unclear which door to enter as there are two doors to get in and 2 separate dining areas I recommend using the left door for eating and the right door for your beverage and bar expectations.hostess was very friendly ..don't judge on the exterior appearance.
