The food and service are always good. The location is amazing. No one should go through the summer without spending an evening here looking at mt rainier across the lake.

Good food every time. Servers greet and seat you. Dining area is pretty formal, the deck or bar seat are my favorite places to sit. The view is practically perfect.

The fries are like the ones you get in really bad fast food places. The food is priced like it's high quality but they are terrible. The view is pretty awesome. The set up is weird tho, there is like a dining room separate from the entrance. The bar is a nice area to sit. The place sometimes smells really bad like fish but it's not a primarily fish place so it's off putting.

I absolutely love this bar/restaurant in Lake Tapps. The inside is cozy and the outside has breathtaking views of Lake Tapps and Mt. Rainier. The perfect combo. Not to mention, their food and drinks here are fantastic. Prices are reasonable and they have a decent size menu so everyone in your group can find something they like. They have seasonal cocktails too and if you check this place out during the fall then you must try the Pumpkin spice cold brew martini. It was so good that I ordered it three times in one sitting! One side note to Yelp readers, this bar/restaurant is located on a golf course so mention at the security gate that you are going to the restaurant so you can get a parking pass. Also, come early for dinner because this place can fill up fast!

The view from the deck is the best, especially on a summer day and the lake is buzzing. The food is ok but nothing spectacular.

It's just meh. Views are nice. Service is nice. Salad was soggy and steak was not medium rare. Don't go to the park nearby even for a minute because it's private and residents will call security to ask you to leave. Not worth the trip. Unfortunately, some residents are not keen on visitors stepping foot in their precious park. Unknowingly, my friends and I did just that, and a woman nearby reported us as nonresidents causing a disturbance. We were just talking and enjoying the beautiful weather and view, nothing more. The security guard looked embarrassed to ask us to leave, seeing we were not at all loud or disruptive. But it is what it is. Guess we won't be returning where we are not wanted.
Had a dinner seminar here and it was great! Amazing food, service, staff, and views! Thanks!

It’s a nice place l frequent here, but the service on food needs to be improved like it’s not the usual steak salad am used to

Location is beautiful. It probably would be cool to go to dinner via your boat if you live on the lake. Service was fine. Drinks were stout. Food was... alright. Not bad. Not great. Just ok. Disappointed that the online menu didn't match the menu we were given upon being seated. I tend to review before choosing a place. Was just not for me, not my crowd. I like Al Lago, so I had high hopes.

Wife and I boated up and got a grilled chicken flatbread for take out. The sauce seemed to be made entirely out of several sticks of melted butter and nothing else. The melted butter was so thick, it was basically the only flavor. After soldiering through a couple pieces and getting kinda grossed out, we ended up just picking the chicken off and leaving the rest. One of the worst pizzas I've ever eaten.
