We love this restaurant and go here every time we're up north. They have good options on the menu and the salad bar at dinner is delicious. The manager makes all the difference in the world. He's personable and makes the customers feel special. Business wouldn't be as good without him. He needs a nice raise. 😊

For the price of the breakfast buffet it fell way short. The food was cold, from the eggs which tasted like they were from a box to the hashbrowns and the bacon and sausage. Very disappointed. Definitely would not recommend.

Overpriced tourist trap. As soon as you see the prices, you will walk out.

Visited a few years ago, then again in Oct 2024. They were not busy and I wondered why. I found out when I looked at the menu. A breakfast omelette $20.79 and a chefs breakfast $18.49. Both came with sausage, hash browns and toast, but for sure over priced for the breakfast. With tip for two breakfast cost $57.00. Service was good. Bathrooms were bad, both soap dispensers were broken in both restrooms. I suggest finding another breakfast place for the reasons mentioned above.

The old man host is obnoxious and rude! The food was beyond disgusting, and overpriced for sub standard food! This use to be one of our favorite places, but it has gone way downhill! Very disappointing! We won’t be back!

We had dinner here on a busy Saturday evening. The waiter was very busy but he was still quite attentive and always ensured our drinks were full and our requests were met. The food was surprisingly tasty. The Parmesan crusted whitefish was delicious! No one in our party had the buffet but tables around us were raving about the roast.
