    Acapulco burrito.

    We are so happy we asked a man on his evening walk where to have dinner. Not only did we enjoy the food his second recommendation was the margarita. Great service by AJ.

    One word : CONSISTENCY! Good food in large portions, the BEST Texas Margs north of Fort Wayne & excellent customer service. Pitchers of Margs folks! They do it right!

    We rented a lake house and boat on Hamilton Lake. This is one of the only restaurants you can pull your boat up to. We docked easily. They offered us seating outside or inside. Outside includes open air and a screened porch. We opted for inside and sat in a large booth. We had friendly, attentive service even though we were only ordering drinks. We ordered the queso as an extra and everyone really enjoyed its mild spicy flavor. A friend and I split a margarita pitcher. The margarita had food flavor. Usually I complain there is not enough salt on the rim; this time I would say it was almost too much but it was easy to scrape a little off. If we come back to this lake, we would definitely come back here to try more of the food (and more margs).

    Good food fast. The margaritas are also very good. A great place to stop and have a meal while you're at the lake.

    Thanks to the dishwasher we were welcomed and provided with glasses of ice water long before our…read moreserver appeared and our drink orders were taken. Kudos to him for observing and responding to the fact that we were seated and not yet greeted by our server. And yet, his attention to the situation is a check in the plus column for a decent restaurant that was unfortunately, seriously under staffed when we stopped by for dinner recently. It seems that the owner or manager was essentially handing ALL of the front of the house duties, as well as tending the bar -- greeting, seating, waiting on the table, making and serving drinks, running food, and handing payment at the end of the night. A child, apparently the owner/manager's daughter occasionally bussed some tables and strutted around wielding a fly swatter (though fortunately I didn't see any flies--but there was outdoor seating). I could only see one person in the kitchen (there could have been another but I'm not sure). All in all it meant everything was S-L-O-W. That said, we were the perfect group for the situation--a bunch of Boomer college friends fully engaged in conversation and reminiscing about the good old days -- which compensated -- to some degree -- the time we waited for service. Well, eventually things got rolling. Our drink order was taken along with an appetizer for the table. The drinks arrived after a reasonable amount of time. I ordered the house version of an old fashioned made with a bourbon distilled at a local/regional distillery. Tasty -- my only nitpick -- such drinks should be served with a LARGE chunk of ice, not a scoop of cubes from the ice machine. The appetizer for the table was the house crab dip -- an excellent choice for sharing and the flavor was spot on. For my entree I chose the lamb "lollipops." The three or four lamb chops were perfectly cooked, juicy, tender and unctuous -- really unctuous since the fat cap was not trimmed -- but as a great food critic once said, "meat without fat is dead protein -- so in short, the meat was bursting with flavor. The asparagus were nicely roasted. The sauce was rich and garlicky (thanks to confit cloves of garlic). It complemented the gaminess of the lamb perfectly, but the amount of sauce a bit more than necessary for a truly balanced composed dish. I still enjoyed it immensely and would order it again. (By the way, I was able to sample my wife's tuna. The 3/16 of an inch sear on the tuna was perfect and the rare interior was exactly how tuna should be cooked.) The owner/manager was appropriately apologetic about the pace of service and I will say that she, and the kitchen, did their best under the circumstances. As I mentioned, we were a good group because our goal was time together, not precisely timed service. I would hope another couple of employees could rectify the slow service and build their clientele because the food is quite good, the location is excellent and I loved the decor, especially the vintage outboard motors including one or two designed by the great industrial designer Brooks Stevens from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

    Run!!!! as far as you can from this place!!! Billed as fine dining....what a joke. The manager/…read morewaitress must have trained in a dive bar....so unprofessional and rude. I think she thought she was funny. Food was ho-hum..... was even afraid to give the left overs to the dog. Charged extra for butter and never told the vegetable substitution would be an upcharge. Who does that!! I don't mind an expensive meal if the service is good and the food is outstanding but you are not going to find the latter here.
