Great spot to gather your family for a seafood affair! Tons of options from fish and chips to Cajun classics (blacken fish with crawfish etouffee). We had an amazing view of Lake Monroe and great options for the kids too!

We had an issue with an extra member of our party. They fixed that in 2 minutes. There were 2 minor issues with the food. They corrected it immediately. It was MIL birthday, they gave her carrot cake, her fave. Great with kids, we really had a lovely time. Get the NY strip with lobster tail and thank me later lol

The first server, her name was Carri . She was very attentive to our needs. Then we all of a sudden we end up with a guy, and he didn't even bother to tell my group what his name was. He acted like we were a bother to him. We asked what the dessert menu was, and he just walked away, so we thought he was going to get the menu. He then comes back, and he reads it off his pad. We all looked at each other like what was that. Then we asked for a couple of boxes for our food, and again, he acted like we bothered him. As we were leaving, we explained it to our first waitress. He was very unprofessional.

Highly recommend! The service is top notch. Although you have a specific server designated to your table, every server is there to assist you. So if you need something, you can ask anyone which makes it so nice.
The food was amazing as well. And the views are spectacular.

The experience left much to be desired. The food was subpar, with fried items that were clearly not made fresh—lukewarm and not properly reheated. To add to the frustration, the food arrived before our drinks and was almost cold by the time it got to the table. The restaurant uses a team-serving system, but it’s poorly executed and slows down the service, making the dining experience feel disjointed. The view could have been a highlight, but the cheaply constructed patio, you get a view of the lake and each mini split condenser greeting you just on the other side of each “window”. The owner probably thought they could do the interior designing themselves, and it shows because it’s what I would expect my great grandmothers house to look like. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Ordered ribeye rare, with asparagus, and mashed potatoes. Steak came out cold and med well. Then the asparagus was cold and un seasoned. The mashed potatoes where the absolute worst ive ever had, cold and unseasoned no butter, cream,or anything just imagine boiled russet potatoes with skins then picture that cold and that's how the mashed potatoes where. The potatoes also had hair in them. I had to claw several strands of blonde hair from my tongue. The servers were great. The view of the river was great. The food is not worth the trip.

Food was okay. Prepped fried food wasnt warmed back up enough, not freshly fried. The server system is some sort of team serving. Very inefficient and poorly executed. The servers share responsibility for tables so they rely on communicating with each other which slows service. Not the servers fault, just shouldn't try fixing a problem that wasn't a problem, traditional serving makes sense. The view is nice but the patio was cheaply made with residential sliding glass doors with screens that block your view. Wouldn't recommend to a friend.

After 2 hours we still had not received our food. No server ever came back to the table to check on us. My husband tracked down a server on the floor and she said she would get the manager to come over. He never did. We finally got up and left. The atmosphere was so loud you couldn't even hear yourself by hungry. We paid over $50 for three drinks and two beers at the bar.
