We used to love coming here for the catfish dinner-not any more. A recent trip ended our patronage…read more I was shocked when the waitress brought our food and there was half the amount of catfish as we normally got in other years-for a substantial increase in price. I get that restaurants are having a difficult time and their prices have increased but don't take advantage of your customers. If you increase the price, give me the same amount of food, not less. We would gladly keep coming, even with the huge price increase if you hadn't cut the portions in half.

Good atmosphere & great scenery. Best fried pickles I've ever been served…read more My group consisted of 3 couples (6 individuals total). Even when we rarely go out for boat days (usually in priest or old hickory) we avoid packed outdoor food venues, but it wasn't too bad on a Sunday afternoon here. No wait & plenty of outdoor seating with ample space between tables. One thing all of us mask wearers noticed was that the staff & servers were not masked at all, they didn't even have masks on them, & very few of the patrons coming & going had mask on either. Must be due to the geopolitical views of the people in the area. This concerned me & I kept my mask on the entire time except while eating since the staff were not masked & walking by closely and often. I won't let that factor into the review but it needs to be noted for others who look here for guidance. There were several drink specials & food specials made known to us by our server immediately & he was quick to fill our drink orders of mango habanero bloody marys & pontoon punch which are both highly recommend by our party. I ordered some fried pickles to split up & they are very different & exceptionally good. They are slivers of pickle spears fried in a manner that resembles fried green beans. Everybody raved about them & they were gone quickly. One order was almost enough to share for 4-5 people. Half of the party ordered club sandwiches & the other half ordered burgers & fish tacos. The fish tacos were stated to be better than Sams on old hickory & as good as some served on the Florida panhandle in PCB, Pensacola, Destin etc. the club sandwich was nothing to write home about, pretty basic & fairly bland. The Mac & cheese is well above average & could make the cut of the top 10 I've had in the middle Tennessee area. IMPORTANT NOTE. THEY CHARGE A 20% gratuity for parties of 6 or more. If I was on the lake I'd probably come back, I'd expect to see masks on the staff though.

Grouper sandwich ok, chicken quesadilla ok...what wasn't ok was the chips and salsa. Salsa tastes…read morehorrible! Waitress brought the appetizer out AFTER we finished our meal. She told us it was lost and asked if we still wanted it, told her we were ok but it was brought out anyway. Very disappointed in the high dollar appetizer and dining experience. Also, why don't the servers have sections instead of taking turns with customers....seems like it would be easier to give the servers sections instead of every 3rd or 4th table, which seems like it would be difficult to keep up with. Very disappointing and not worth the $$$ it costs!

Great food and service. It was our first time there and we will for sure be going back!read more

Food was delicious, once the chef understood what we were looking to eat…read more Reception was mediocre where the main room was noisy so we looked for the back room. We waited for 20 minutes past our reservation before we were seated in the noisier main room. Our waitstaff Tanner was a 12/10 - superb! Highlights included that once order was correctly received, it was executed well. Downside was that my husband's filet was seasoned when he asked no seasoning; salad came out with dressing on the side instead of having the kitchen lightly dress it. But once it was correct (2 hours past our reservation time) it was fabulous. Mushroom gratinee was delicious. Cesar salad was crisp and perfectly seasoned when lightly dressed. Originally my husband's filet was seasoned and over salted but 2nd chance was perfect. Asparagus was delicious. Dessert was comped and was great. Here's where they could improve: Ambience - the main room has no theme and is noisy. There are beautiful pictures of Center Hill Lake and they should capitalize on that. The room is noisy. Perhaps some artificial barriers of plants could improve. The use of "to go" serving dishes makes it feel less fine dining. They say they are a wine bar but have a very limited selection. They could easily expand their selection and become a true wine bar. We would go back and look forward to trying Ace's again.

I wanted to try their dinner special which was catfish plus 2 sides for 9.95, food was very tasty, fish was fresh, sides were on point. I had ordered the potato salad and creamed corn. Serving size was plenty, I had leftovers for the next day. They offer a nice selection of pies including pecan pie, coconut meringue pie, chocolate meringue pie... my favorite was the chocolate meringue pie yum. This place is well worth multiple trips. We can on another night for their meatloaf dinner special, everything was delish. I definitely recommend this place for the food and for your wallet!

The first evening, I had chicken enchiladas. The second night, a ground beef burrito. Everything was tasty and super-fresh. They serve a simple little garnish/side of lettuce, pico, and sour cream. Nothing fancy, but you can taste the freshness. The beans and rice were excellent, also. Chips and salsa, you ask? Superb. The salsa is excellent. I'd probably prefer a little more zing. But the flavor was great and, get this...it's nice and chunky, which I love. Great chips, too. Like everything else, fresh. The service is wonderful, too. Very nice staff. The parking lot was packed both nights. Always a great sign, especially for Monday and Tuesday. Monday was bingo night and Tuesday was trivia. It was rather noisy, but patrons were having a blast. I would definitely go back!

Menu prices range from a few dollars for an a la carte taco to nearly $30 for some seafood dishes. Portions are massive, so be prepared to take home leftovers.
