We literally had 22 minutes for lunch, and the service and food were perfect. And we ordered, were served, ate and paid with 2 minutes to spare.

I love this place, good food and not too expensive. The view and outside seating is awesome. I have one big problem though. Your water is terrible! It seems like you use the same water in the fountain drinks too. Tastes awful, and has some side effects if you know what I mean. Other people I know have had the same issue. We all know Cedar lake water is bad. Please get a better water treatment system.

The food is basic diner food, nothing to write home about. A large selection of food choices which is not a good sign if you want good diner fare. A friend had the reuben months ago and said he wasn't impressed, but it's not his sandwich of choice so his comment did not surprise me. I, however, love reubens - it's my favorite sammie and if it's on a menu, it's what I order so when I finally visited the Sandbar I decided to try it. Sadly, I have to agree with my friend, it's just not good at all. There is something off with the sauerkraut they use - it tasted horrible so I scraped it off my sandwich but the bit that I did consume made me very ill about an hour after I left. When I mentioned it to the waitress, she didn't say she'd inform the cook, but defended the kraut saying they make a ton of reubens daily (highly, highly doubtful as I was there at peak time and there were only 4 tables occupied).The place is pretty clean but the table needed a better wipe down and the salt shaker was so greasy it slid out of my hand and I had to go wash up after touching it. I've never in my life had to wash my hands from a salt shaker before!The staff was friendly but they did spend more time chatting in the front of the house than waiting on the few occupied tables, to the point that I just about got out of my seat to get a drink refill.I loved the atmosphere though - being on the lake is this diner's saving grace.

We learned of this place from our nephew and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the service was great. If you go, you HAVE to try the deep fried bacon. It is a 10! We did not get to eat outside because the bees were bad so we did not get the full experience of eating on the lake but it was still good. The only downside to this place is the parking. The lot was full when we got there and we drove around a while waiting. Maybe they could have signs to say you can park at Dollar General if that is allowed???

Food was good and reasonably priced. Didn't wait long and the waitress was very kind. There are also several seating options to enjoy a nice view of the water.
