I took my 90 year old mother here for Thanksgiving dinner. The manager, Alex, got us a table in the patio overlooking the lake and it was fabulous. It wasn't cold at the time, but when we've been there before, they turn on heaters which are very warm. My husb even git to have leftovers, which he lives. Go there for Thanksgiving and you will love it!

Came for Thanksgiving. The food was plenty and delicious. The service was wonderful. All the staff very friendly and welcoming. This was my first visit and will definitely be back! Maybe even tomorrow!

It was my husband's birthday. The food was very very good. The service was great. The only thing was we were seated next to a large group of people and it was very loud and detracted from what could have been a excellent experience!
