Had reservations for tonight and was surprised to find out Hobarts decided to shut down for the season after taking the reservations with no advance notice given. While I can understand it’s a seasonal business in this area, it doesn’t bode well for customer service when these type of things happen and a group of six are not provided advance notification (by chance we called to reconfirm our reservation and the outgoing message advised they were closed for the season) and are left to find alternative arrangements at the last minute

One of the best waterfront restaurants in Ontario This is worth the drive for the view, the food, and the service If you have a boat or paddle board it’s a nice spot to dine after an outing on the water Highly recommend

Wonderful ambiance overlooking the harbour. Perfect setting for simple gathering or special occasion. Good assortment of entrees and beverage (wine list). Courteous service. Maple glazed salmon excellent as was the house specialty - Chocolate Pate.

Went there to celebrate our anniversary. The service was outstanding. The food was mediocre but the quantity was sufficient. The parking was a disaster. It was on a very steep slope and being seniors with mobility issues we found ourselves having difficulty getting to the steps with a trench like area on both sides of the road. Other than that we had a great day.

We recently celebrated our anniversary at a lakeside restaurant, where we encountered several issues with the food and service. Despite the high cost of the meal, we were disappointed with the quality of the dishes. The seafood jambalaya was excessively salty, the Swiss onion soup lacked flavor, and the Caesar salad with blackened chicken was overcooked and dry. The appetizer, which was the special of the day, was the only satisfactory dish. It appeared that the restaurant was short-staffed, which may have contributed to the problems we experienced. Nevertheless, we were dissatisfied with the overall dining experience, especially considering the special occasion we were celebrating. As a result, we have decided to forgo dining out for future anniversaries and instead prepare a special meal at home. We plan to purchase a couple of beautiful lobster tails from a seafood store and cook them ourselves, creating a more enjoyable and memorable anniversary celebration.

Ordered the penne pesto chicken Alfredo and it was not great. For the price of $29 I was given what can only be called a side of pasta. The sauce was not flavourful, the chicken looked like pre cooked chicken strips. Garlic bread was slightly toasted on one side and nothing special. The service was good and the location was nice. Just overpriced food and not that great for what you pay for.

We're very fortunate to have a restaurant like this on Stoney Lake. Food and service are superb, and the view from the enclosed deck is fantastic. Worth trying, definitely recommended.

Went there for the first and had one of their burgers, chicken parmesan and a few drinks. Was really delicious, prices were reasonable, staff was lovely and the view was beautiful. Will definitely be back!

Waited for over an hour for a burger and a wrap with two young kids under 5. The burger was overcooked, the bun was dried out and burned. The veggie wrap was mostly lettuce. The pogo for one of the kids came out after 30-40 mins. The server was sweet but we were told they had a small kitchen and had taken on too many reservations, however the tables were not totally full. This was a real shame, we ate here two years ago and had fantastic food, this time it was a massive disappointment. I hope they bring it back to what it once was soon.

We have eaten here many times over the years. We love bringing family and friends here who are from outside the area. Great ambiance and view of Stoney Lake, however, we have frequently found that it takes a very long time to get your dinner. It took nearly hour and a half for our meal to arrive. We noticed that a table that came much later than us not only got their food before us, they actually left before we got our dinner. It was busy but not packed and we came on a Sunday evening. We also have found that every time we come, they are out of a number of things. One time that we came, they were out of steak and I ended up ordering something that I really didn't want. This time they were out of salmon and the potatoes that I wanted. This always happens almost every time that we have gone. The food that we ended up ordering was good but not what we wanted. Server was very pleasant.
