The drinks were great! The food was the worst I had in a long time . I got crab cake tocos and the crab meat was a thin layer of overcooked . The Tucker shell supposed to be flower but it was a hard crunchy flower at the top. My girlfriend got pork tacos and it wasn’t nothing but sliced sandwich meat we left just as hungry as it was when we arrived1. And sweet potato fries were thin crunchy. The waiter was great he )

Service and food quality was excellent, I had the filet mignon and the wife had salmon, price was sort of high but worth it. We will definitely be back.

What great service and an excellent brunch! Kevin was welcoming and made really good Bloody Mary's for us. Mason, our server, was the best! We will be back!!!!

Had a late lunch around 1pm on a Saturday. Tied up the boat at the dock and were seated immediately upon walking up.The atmosphere was lively, an older crowd of lake house retirees. Maybe that’s why the service was perfect?Our waiter was all business; speaking w/o frills and not interrupting. He was quick to receive requests & delivered w/ the same speed.Nice to be treated like you’re not in the way.For lunch & drinks; The Cabana’s your stop.

We arrived 7 ish on a Monday evening. We were seated immediately. Noah was our server, he did an excellent job, very attentive without being obtrusive. My husband had a fish sandwich which a full of crispy flaky fish. His side was Mac and cheese with was delicious. I eat French dips wherever we go, I must say this was one of the best I've had! Meat to bread ratio was perfect, and the bread was excellent. My side of fries were excellent as well. Great experience and we will return!

Awesome place to grab dinner! The outside seating has a lovely view, and the inside is nice and quiet. We chose to be seated inside. Food and service was great. Ordered the Almond crusted chicken, portions and taste were good. The server was lovely, very attentive and polite.

Clean, friendly, I did have to ask for more drink. Waitress was very slow to come back to table. Food was very good. A bit pricey but when going to a place like this that's what you find.

I had been to the Lighthouse before in early March 2020 and found it to be okay then. But my dinner tonight was sorely lacking and terribly overpriced given the low quality of food. The service was decent and we were seated promptly. But the basket of bread was cold and the homemade blue cheese dressing for the salad was incredibly watery and tasteless. I had the Grouper which was served in a pool of butter. The Grouper itself was of extremely poor quality and looked gray rather than white. My mom had the flounder, which did not taste fresh at all. And my dad had the baby back ribs that were lacking in meat and seemed overcooked. He stated that it seemed like they had been cooked and then warmed up. Also, the menu was lacking in vegetable sides -- only broccoli and garden salad. Our bill came to $84 before tip, which was far too high for the poor quality of food. The menu needs a major overhaul too. There aren't many seafood choices, but maybe that's a good thing given the low quality of seafood preparation and seafood. We have crossed this restaurant off our list which is a shame given the beautiful lakeside view.

Boat in if you can find a spot, extremely busy on weekends. Limited dock slots, so plan ahead. Great on nice weather days!

Was on vacation and visited here on a good recommendation, there were five of us and it was a Monday night...didn't seem busy. We were seated promptly and our order taken quickly, the food came out surprisingly quick. My one guest ordered the jalapeño chicken....dried out and no jalapeño. Also ordered the steak and mushroom soup...he described it as mush with warm water. I wasn't told about this till after we had left...Two burgers and a French dip...all good no complaints! I had the shrimp and grits with Tasso Ham....the best I've had ever....I've had a lot and this was by far my favorite!The downside of this meal was our server who could hardly be bothered to refill our drinks, he tried to take away our plates before we had finished...I wish I could call him out by name...but I tossed the receipt. I would give this place a better score if not for our interaction with the server...if you go and your server is male with a blondish red hair cut...ask for another server!

Skip this place!First of all, the menu online is not accurate. We came here with the expectation to have mixed drinks and a few appetizers. Their menu tonight was limited to about 3 or 4 items which were not your typical bar foods at all. They offered a chicken salad sandwich or a pimento sandwich. Both sucked.I ordered their Cabana Rum Punch or something to that effect, and it was all alcohol. Which if you like your cocktails like that, you will enjoy this one.Our table must have been nestled atop an ant hill or something as we flicked about 10 away from us.The only pro was our server, he was very kind and quick to get refills or ask if we needed anything else. He had a friendly attitude.

Don't waste your time. Seated us orders food for my 7 year old then they asked us to leave because he had no shoes. Worst service ever! Do not spend a dime here.
