Every server at this restaurant is top-notch. The food is great with a great variety. Chicken salad wrap, chicken BLT, and smothered chicken are our favorites. Inside and outside seating is available with spectacular views. From the canopy of the trees to the turtles, gators, and bird wild life to spot from your table. Reasonable prices and best homemade desserts around. Highly recommend orange cake and the carrot cake.
Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to sit outside as an option and flat front door.

Fish was so dry on top of my salad. Not a bit of fluid left in it. Not flaky. Way over cooked. Favor was gone too.
Husband had the fried fish sandwich, described his as dry fish and dead lettuce.
Fries were good.

Their web page said they were open. Drove there from Leesburg only to find a sign that said they were closed from August 5th through August 20th.

Maybe we came at a bad time considering all the positive reviews, but this place was awful. Beautiful lakeside view through filthy windows. Unattentive waitress didn't ask anything about the meal, and some food was barely touched. Cheessteak tasted like heated up lunch meat and the fries undercooked and cold. You offer a discount for cash but not honored. Good luck, I don't need a response. I wouldn't come back if the entire meal was comped.

This is one of the best places to go visit, by boat, seaplane or car. The service is top notch. The menu has a great selection, and is served hor and fresh. Taste is amazing! We ordered their coconut cake. OMG Good!
We watched boats come and go and a seaplane too. We will be back again many times.
Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to access, even from the dock area. Staff even came to me and offered help with my walker. Very nice of them .

I haven’t been here in many years, but was I. The area today.
We ordered apps drinks and lunch. When the apps came, the plates were disgustingly filthy. The entire stack. The top plate (a stack of four) looked like someone had put a thumbprint of butter on it. I sorted through the next three plates and all of them were filthy. I called the server over before taking a single bite and told her to grab our check, we were leaving. While she went to grab our check, we started inspecting silverware. All of it was dirty. I was afraid to look too closely at the glasses our drinks came in.
If you decide to visit, inspect carefully before you consume anything. I wish we had.
