Would love to review our meal but nowhere did this say it was a reservation for Tea only. The restaurant isn't even open for meals/dinner on Sunday evening. So not a great review. We did have breakfast the next day and was decent.

Nathan, our server, was very attentive and congenial. Both the filet and the Bolognese were very flavorful and the temp on the steak was spot on. The molten lava cake with ice cream was HUGE and very tasty!

My wife and I really enjoyed Sidney's. It's the fine dining restaurant that accompanies the Legacy Lodge at Lake Lanier. The new head Chef came out and introduced himself after dinner and was very kind and passionate about his kitchen. The food was absolutely splendid. My filet was cooked to perfection all the way through. My wife got a seafood dish with Octopus and Shrimp and she didn't leave a bite. A++

First time at this restaurant celebrating a friend's birthday. We had reservations and were seated right away. The service and food was fantastic. We both hda the ribeye and it was done to perfection. Prices were very reasonable as well. The atomosphere was very relaxed and we didn't feel like we had to rush through our dinner. We would definitely go back.

Very quiet, very few customers, possibly due to storms that evening. But the staff was wonderful. Food was good. The nicest place to eat dinner in Lanier Islands. We would go back again.

We had a very great and wonderful experience with Chef Brian
He made us a very special meal, wonderful dishes. He is so educated and kind.
The pasta is amazing even better than in Italy.
Great mood and atmosphere!
It’s been a long time since I had the same experience to have the very best Italian food nearby the lake in Georgia!

Decent food at astronomical prices, service was OK, the server acting somewhat annoyed with our presence even tho it was near empty, he even seemed to laugh at us at the amount of food we ordered, you get three scallops and some white rice for 40 l, definitely wouldn't recommend.

Our Choir spent our retreat at Lake Lanier Island our group had our breakfast and lunch at Sydney Restaurant, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Named for Sydney Lanier a 19th century American poet. I just have to shout out to the folks that work there. God Bless you and your Restaurant John A., your entire staff, and these hard working folks! ?Austin, Maggie, Nathan, Sebel and more.... I particularly asked for names because I was more than completely satisfied with this restaurant, the food, their cleanliness, the buffet selection plus! It was my first time there at Lake Lanier Island and I live in Georgia. So shame on me. Definitely want to go back!!!! ?

DO NOT EAT HERE!!! THIS WAS THE MOST HORRIBLE FOOD , 1ST THE BREAD WAS SO HARD YOU COULDN'T SOAK IT IN WATER TO MAKE IT SOFT, THE BRUSSEL SPROUT WERE HARD AS A ROCK. THE WAITER came by and asked if everything was okay , we tried to tell him no and what was wrong but he walked off. We finally talked to the manager and she could care less , she never even apologized . The bill was 127 dollars for food that we didn't eat they took off one meal price , so we still had to pay 85 dollars for food we didn't eat . The best part of the place was the exit sign.

Food was great. Service was great, and restaurant atmosphere matched. Definitely a different level (much higher level) than the fun, but far more casual options we've seen at the resort.
