I enjoyed some aspects of this restaurant but not others. It was hard to find a parking spot. The atmosphere was very nice and friendly staff. They seem to have a lot of fried food which I personally can’t eat too much of.. and the grilled chicken was thin and dry. The wait time for our meals was long despite not being too busy.

literally the worst place i have ever been. food is awful and over priced. staff doesn’t know what is or isn’t out of stock. pretty much every item i tried to order they didn’t have. once i ordered something they actually had it took forever to come out, even tho it wasn’t busy. this place is a joke. take you’re buisness somewhere else. would give 0 stars.

The location and view are nice. They didn't have the Mediterranean platter that is on the menu. The calamari was okay and seemed to be a half serving of what you'd get at other restaurants. The Greek fries were meh. The fries were good in terms of fries, but I wouldn't consider them Greek. We also got the buffalo wings which were a bit pricey, these were okay as well. The best part was probably the view and the waitress was nice.

I can’t recommend this place at this time. There were several items that we wanted to order from the menu but then was told they weren’t available. I placed an order for the crabcake sandwich and after waiting 45 minutes for our food to come, I was told that they didn’t have any crabcakes and I would have to pick something else. Meanwhile, mostly everyone else had their food. When my replacement meal arrived, which was the chicken Panini, the chicken was fried so much that it was like a piece of cardboard. I know this is a new restaurant, but I will not be going back to give it another chance.

Had a wondeful experience !! Everyone’s dinner was excellent. My friend and I ordered Chicken Milanese and it was delicious. The grilled chicken, my husband orderd was moist and very tasty. The stuffed meatloaf was also very good.
The restaurant was decorated for the holidays and looked very festive.
The owner is very friendly and made us feel very welcome.

me and my cousin were just fishing on the lake and we went to go check out this place and we got some free fries with ketchup and it was fast service, hot and fresh.

I recently went there for lunch. I ordered a blackened chicken sandwich and chicken potstickers. The receptionist was very nice and the views are spectacular. Unfortunately, after I ate the first half of my sandwich, I saw my chicken was pink and the sandwich was barely cooked. I was the only person there so they were not busy. Hopefully I don't get sick. The chef seemed pretty distracted and unapproachable.

Excellent meal. Had the smash burgers. Perfectly cooked. The cheesecake and cinnamon Carmel cake was delicious. Our waitress was extremely attentive. Beautiful view of the lake. Will be back soon.
