The Deck Bar &Grill isn't open after Labor Day 😒

The service was terrible, we waited 30 minutes to order food after we ordered drinks, and it wasn’t even busy, she just took her time. Same with our food, and checks. In total we were there for 2 hours when we we just trying to eat and leave…
The food was pretty expensive, and it wasn’t that great either.
The management have to wake up, because this place is gonna lose them lots of money if they don’t do anything about these complaints.

I don’t often leave reviews but I came here with my friends and it was one of the worst dining experiences I ever had. The poor servers clearly were not set up for success by management. Our server accidentally used the wrong card for the wrong tab and there was no manager there to help? It’s the Fourth of July weekend and there’s no manager on site? Eventually after our sweet server was close to tears, she pulled out money from her own pocket to pay the difference. After the change of ownership this place is extremely unpleasant. Terrible experience and insane prices!

Did love the atmosphere and service was great. However ordered the Sunfish appetizer and it was so awful I didn’t finish it. And they charge $20 for it! The breading was very plain, no seasoning, like it was battered in breadcrumbs only. Then it came out with a huge pile of fries enough for 2-3 orders, not that a lot of ppl would mind that but appetizers don’t typically come with a side. Also, even the fries were awful as well. It had a styrofoam texture to it. Like I said earlier, great antmosphere and great service but for the love of god don’t serve that to anyone else and check the other items in your menu.

Food and service were fine, but the prices and portions are offensive. Tiny wings and $12 for a side of fries!

Prices are ridiculous since new ownership. Just a side order of fries, $12!

Horrendous service while there were only 12 people there. Close to an hour for food. Food came in 15 minute increments for 3 of us. Food was way over priced and it was terrible. No background music just heard the bartender that was obnoxiously loud. I’d rate zero stars if it was possible.

Out of all the years I’ve been going to The Deck Bar, this was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had. The service was incredibly slow and unorganized, the staff seemed overwhelmed and uninterested, and the overall atmosphere felt chaotic and not enjoyable. It’s really disappointing to see how much it’s gone downhill. this visit left a bad taste — literally and figuratively. Hoping management takes this feedback seriously and gets things back on track. Not to mention the food was terrible as well.
I hadnt been here in years but decided to give it a shot because of the patio and supposed new management. Red flag 1: its noon on saturday of Memorial Day and there is 1 out of roughly 40 tables filled with patrons. Despite being completely empty it took 10 minutes for someone to even come to our table. When we finally ordered it took another 45 minutes to actually get our food. I have no clue what the cook staff was busy doing since it was empty. When the food finally came it was incredibly disappointing. The fish and chips was the worst I have ever had. The fish was distinctly triangular shaped, clearly shaped that way for shipping frozen in a box. The fries were soggy and barely warm. No one else at the table liked their food either. My wife ordered a burger with a gluten free bun and after the waiter assured us he would bring a gluten free bun it came without one. The prices were absurd - over $20 for every single entree including the burger, fish tacos, fish and chips - everything. When it came time to pay the registers werent working and we needed to wait an extra 15 minutes to pay. All around an awful experience with the exception of the beautiful weather.
Dear new management, coming in and making the food and service worse while simultaneously jacking up the prices is not a recipe for success. I will not be back despite having a cabin on the chain. Back to Zorbaz and Lure I guess.

We were there on May 24th afternoon on the deck. We have been going there for years, but unfortunately the quality of the food and the overall service has really gone south from its past great days. This new ownership really needs to step it up if they plan to get folks out to participate in their restaurant experience. Turn this business around please it used to be a great place to go.

Arriving to the resort late on Friday night, we were delighted to see the Deck Bar was open for cocktails and nightlife. We were quickly greeted by the bartender and she happily took our order. It is a very nice atmosphere to be in. We quickly made plans to try this place out for lunch...and it did not disappoint. Half-pound burgers!! Juicy, chargrilled burgers. You almost never find that anymore. GREAT SERVICE AGAIN. This is a hidden gem.
Kid-friendliness: Generous portion of panko breaded chicken strips and fries for not a lot of money. Plus, they have a slushy machine. My kids were in heaven.

Nice place to eat right out by Lake Darling. The food is just ok though, nothing special.
