Made reservation, only to have them cancel it a couple of hours before we were to go there. They claimed they had "things to do" and were closing for the rest of the day...no clarification. So we had to scramble to make reservations at another place on the lake.

Tried to patronize this business but were told we had to make a reservation. There was only 2 of us! They wouldn't even consider letting us sit down for a drink. Said I should get their app and make a reservation. We are not local (1 hour away) and was in the area just for the day. I explained this but it didn't matter. I would not recommend the out of the way drive. You will more than likely not get seated!!!

The food lacks taste. Guests were turned away due not having a reservation. No one was there and plenty of empty tables available.

I will start with the positive. The view and outdoor seating area was gorgeous. Unfortunately, the food left much to be desired! You will be smart to stick with appetizers here. Our crab balls and shrimp were very good. The main appetizers were extremely basic and lacked flavor, seasoning, and quality. The children’s fries literally tasted like they were microwaved;stale and soggy at best. Many things were out of stock due to a storm “last week,” and the waitress seemed annoyed to be serving us. For this quality of food I would expect much lower menu pricing. All around a disappointment. Such a shame for such a pretty spot!

Jumbo lump Crab cakes are on point, real deal!!! Cold beverages, beautiful lake front setting, and cool staff. What else can you ask for? Awesome restaurant! ??

The food was good, but the waiters are clearly understaffed and doing all they can do to keep up. Wait time to get a table is excessive.

Jerk nachos were nasty. There were big chunks of Chicken, not enough cheese and tomatoes were mushy. Our veggie were cold on our entrees. Salmon was good, but a little too much of the honey glaze. Desserts were good. Prices were reasonable. Service was good.

Great scenery but they have no passion for food. The "Salt and Vinegar" cucumbers were just sliced cucumbers with nothing on them. The burgers tasted off and weren't cooked fully. The mustard packets are expired or something because it was like solid. If this place had a passionate cook it would be amazing.

First visit, nice cocktail(s), pimento cheese appetizer was really good, entre of shrimp and crab cake really good, wife got salmon and liked it too.

Service was fantastic, crabcakes were out of this world good, we were glad they had drink specials because for a pretty casual place (plastic cups, not very comfortable seating , etc) we thought the food prices were a little steep. Beautiful setting!
Had a large group of family. The reservation was not precise, but staff was friendly and helpful. Food was good. And the rain stopped in time for some pix by the lake in the final glow of the sunset. Nice view.

Awesome view, great little place. Menu has no descriptions and is very small/simple. Food not so great and portions very small for the price. This place could have such great potential!
The food was good and it is on the water. However we waited over an hour for our food. It appears there was an issue because our server was not using the current menu. It seems this was not brought to her attention until after we had already been waiting at least a half an hour. The waitress was very apologetic. However it would have been nice if the kitchen staff had alerted her to the issue when the order was placed. I also would have expected the owner or manager to have visited our table. Neither of which happened.

Good food and service. Limited menu. But what was on it was delicious. No problem serving party of 9. Make sure to make reservations.

As locals, we love the summer season when Anna Cabana opens up to serve food on the lake. The crab cakes are delicious! Great location, great owners and staff, and great place to enjoy on 'lake time' while there.
