Delicious and great service! A bit expensive but well worth the beautiful view and great atmosphere!

Did the sweet spot dessert tasting. It was a blast. Small intimate setting excellent service. Desserts were beautiful and drinks were fantastic.

Absolutely extraordinary experience from start to finish. From the hostess greeting, to the view, to the exquisite cocktail menu, to the food perfectly delicious and cook your perfection, this is five star all the way. Will definitely go back

My daughter and I had a very nicely prepared lunch. We split an appetizer an small entree. The cost was too high for the amount of food. We left hungry but what we ate was very tasty.

Eating here feels like a bizarre prank. Roasted carrots are boiled and then heated over a flame with no seasoning, brussels sprouts are deep fried and then not seasoned, steak is overdone, the burger is not a smash burger at all but is fine, clam chowder was very thin tasted like it was from a can with a couple cubes of pancetta added. Even the soda just came from a can and not a fountain. Every choice is just so odd and off putting.

We chose this place as we thought it would have great Christmas decorations and lovely ambiance. The decorations were certainly tasteful but not outstanding. The ambiance was lovely as the fireplaces were blazing and the sun was shining in the glassed-in dining section facing the lake, where we sat. I found the food to be fine for the most part but overpriced for the average quality. I asked for a regular coffee but was served an espresso, which was then given to my companion, who was happy to get a double. I then received a tepid cup of coffee with grounds in the bottom, so that was disappointing. We both ordered omelets, which were served with roasted potatoes. The omelets were cooked well, but not fluffy. I had mushrooms and saysage in mine. The mushrooms tasted like they were from a can. The sausage was well-seasoned and tasty. The potatoes were seasoned quite well, but I was hoping for some crispy edges to no avail. My companion wanted dessert, but I avoid gluten and sugar, so there were no suitable choices. My companion asked if I could get a bowl of strawberries with chocolate sauce, and they obliged. I didn't expect very red strawberries this time of year, but these were especially pale and so not as flavorful. One piece seemed to be rotting, so I avoided that. The chocolate sauce was yummy, though, so I judiciously dipped my strawberries in it. We walked around the water-side perimeter of the property after that, which was lovely. However, the boardwalk along the small canal was narrow and made my companion anxious of falling in the canal. We also visited the very small giftshop, but they just had a few hotel insignia items and some children's items. Overall, it's a very lovely place, but the food didn't match up to the quality of the facility.

The onions in the French Onion soup were crunchy and not soft at all. The salmon skin was incredibly salty to the point of being nearly inedible.

Time and again the experience is impeccable. I brought my father (in a wheelchair) and my two young daughters, both under ten. Had to assist my father and take him to the restroom and two waitresses immediately said they'd watch my daughters at the table. When I come back, they had an order of fries to keep them occupied (and a waitress was with them). This is the type of attention you get at a high class facility like this. Many good family outings here, always good dishes and well prepared.
I certainly don't agree with the handful of negative reviews that are here, as this place should be 4.4 or higher.

Had a wonderful off-peak lunch - felt like we had our own private kitchen staff. Had a light lunch so we could each get a dessert! Atmosphere was wonderful - right on Canandaigua Lake - service was wonderful too! My only suggestion is to slicing/chopping the spinach on the loaded grilled cheese would make it easier to eat.

My wife and I used to love the manhattan paired with goat cheese and figs. It’s one of the things we really looked forward to on our date night. It was super disappointing the rose tavern did away with the pairing. It was a bit pricey at $20 a drink but was totally worth it for us. Now the manhattan definitely isn’t worth it and it’s a major oversight by management. The bar tender told us that we weren’t the only people who have asked about it. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!!
The atmosphere is wonderful, such a gorgeous location. Bret was a great server and had really good recommendations. The Malbec is outstanding. Start with the clam chowder too. The salmon was delicious and beautifully plated. Overall great experience, we’ll be back!

We had a reservation for 715 and were told there would be a wait. We went to check with the hostess after waiting for 30 minutes and were first in line to speak to the hostess. However, she let a group of 4 cut the line and then addressed a patron who was sitting at the bar and also asked everyone behind us if they had checked in. After all this was completed, she then addressed us. We are young women of color and the rest of patrons were middle aged whites. This establishment is beyond racist and unprofessional I cannot recommend this place to anyone of color as the hostess is clearly racist. We ended up taking our business elsewhere. We did not get a Tex that our table was ready until 820. That is an hour and 5 minutes past our reservation time.

Stayed at the hotel - daytime brunch is nice, no problems. The space is beautiful and we enjoyed the breakfast.
Dinner - bit of a disaster; the layout is not optimized and this leads to long delays and waits, even for reserved tables. We sat down 45 minutes late.
The central focus of the restaurant “is the hearth” - and we’re in the heart of NY farmland, surrounded by cattle and even livestock exchanges - so how do you run out of ribeyes, especially when the menu is so short? Whatever we had instead was … fine?
Delicious and great service! A bit expensive but well worth the beautiful view and great atmosphere!
