Some places just have the right feeling the moment you walk in, and that's exactly what we found at…read more Country Cottage Restaurant. I went there on a date, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable - perfect for real conversation. It's the kind of place where you can actually slow down, connect, and enjoy the moment without feeling rushed or distracted. The food was both ample and delicious. Every dish felt generous and satisfying, the kind of meal that leaves you full in the best way possible. It's clear they care about both quality and portion, which is a great combination. What truly stood out, though, was the staff. The servers were incredibly kind and welcoming, creating an environment that felt warm and genuine. That level of hospitality makes a big difference, especially on a night that matters. All together, it made for a memorable and meaningful evening. If you're looking for a place that offers great food, friendly service, and an atmosphere that encourages good conversation, this is a perfect choice.

We came in just 10 minutes before closing, but you'd never know it based on how welcoming the staff was. Our waitress was super sweet and friendly, treating us like we had all the time in the world. We ordered the eggplant tower and the grilled chicken sandwich. The eggplant tower was absolutely amazing -- the eggplant was fried to perfection, not greasy at all, with the perfect drizzle of balsamic glaze and fresh mozzarella. You could tell every layer was thoughtfully made. All in all, this place has heart, great food, and genuine hospitality. I will definitely be back for more!

D'Boathaus was the perfect lakeside brunch spot for my sister's bachelorette weekend on Greenwood…read moreLake. We rented an Airbnb nearby and wanted a fun Sunday brunch with a beautiful view, and this restaurant absolutely delivered. We made an 11 AM reservation and were glad we arrived before the crowds started rolling in. They offered both a featured brunch menu and an extensive drink menu with lots of options for the group. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the meal. She even took a table photo for us and later noticed us struggling to take a group picture outside after brunch -- she actually came outside to take photos for us, which was such a thoughtful touch and really went above and beyond for such a special occasion. The atmosphere was also so welcoming. The locals were incredibly kind, and one woman even bought our table a bottle of champagne after hearing we were celebrating a bride-to-be. It made the whole experience feel extra memorable. As someone with a gluten allergy, I really appreciated that they offered gluten-free options, including gluten-free toast. I had the spinach and feta omelet with home fries, and everything was delicious. My sister is a huge Eggs Benedict fan and loved their version as well. The location right on Greenwood Lake is beautiful. They have dock space for people arriving by boat, plus outdoor seating that would be amazing on a nice summer day. There are also two parking lots on either side of the restaurant, which made parking easy for us, although I could see it filling up quickly during peak summer weekends. The prices were definitely on the higher end, but honestly, for a nice restaurant directly on the lake with great service and atmosphere, it felt worth it. I'm already looking forward to coming back next time we're in the area!

We stopped at Old School Pub because it's on the way and I remember reviews about their burgers being pretty good. They were spot on! First of all, the staff were super friendly (shout out to Chris, nice mustache!) The beer on tap was cold and brought out quickly. The burgers were cooked perfectly with that delicious char taste from being right off the grill. It's definitely a locals spot as the place was starting to fill up for a Saturday night. No frills, no fuss, just good brew and burgers!

We had a cocktail party for about 35 people at high tops and it was excellent (plenty of room for dancing, etc) The food was delicious, prices are very reasonable and the staff were great! I highly recommend having any kind of party there! I can't say enough about Erin who was the event manager. She worked with me for months making sure that everything is going to be perfect. I'm sure I was driving her crazy at several points but her patience was exceptional and her management & organization skills are incredible! She also is a tech wiz (at least compared to me) and helped me set up a playlist for the party on a Bluetooth system and a video loop of photos of my husband to play on the TVs. She was there the whole night along with a bartender and runner and everything was as smooth as can be. I was totally relaxed knowing that she was taking care of all the details! Thank you so much, Erin! The party would not have been a terrific success without you! Definitely check out River for your next party!

Good food for a local bar, friendly service. Just don't come hangry!…read more This seems to be a hangout for regulars chatting at the bar, with a small menu of appetizers, burgers and sandwiches. We came on a Friday evening, tired and hungry, so waiting for food wasn't something we wanted. But wait we did. However, when we eventually got our food, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the burger patty, and the grilled cheese accompaniment to the tomato bisque (especially since they said there was no more of the chili I ordered). The staff came over several times to check in which was appreciated. The food and service saved the experience for us! Prices were also reasonable. They have outdoor seating as well, which is where most people chose. If they were a more well-run establishment they could take this to the next level. Parking is around the corner of the Characters restaurant and seems to be plentiful.

The owner said absolutely not. If you're not happy with your meal you're paying full price period. No substitutions , no partial meal price , nothing. Customer satisfaction is not on their menu. If your food is bad , tough shiit. They will charge you full price and not help in any way. The owner is nasty. I got in an argument with him in front of a full restaurant. You treat me like craap I will happily treat you back the same way. I will not be back. We've eaten here probably a minimum of 50 times over the last 2 years...never a complaint. We had 1 complaint and the owner could do nothing but get nasty with me.

I would avoid this restaurant on any holiday because they do not know how to handle a large crowd…read more When we arrived as a party of 4 there were a lot of people waiting to be seated , I went to the front to leave my name and was told just to wait at the back of the line. Everyone before me was seated as they should have been and then we were told they were prepping a table for us. A couple walks in and asked if we put our names on a waitlist, I just told them there was no wait list just a line. Couple went to the front and was seated right away at a table for 4. Another group of 3 girls came in and thankfully they told the host that we were waiting before them. I went up and told her, that couple was seated before us, maybe you should come up with a better system like taking down names, she snapped "I AM SEATING, CLEANING TABLES... I DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH MENUS FIR YOUR PARTY, FOLLOW ME!" So I thought maybe I was wrong in my approach but then that couple who were now a party of 4 and a table seated after us also a party of 4 were served their food and finished before we were even served. We waited over an hour for eggs and pancakes- simple breakfast. Food was cold like it had been sitting there. My daughter had to get to work by 11 (we got there at 9:15 am) so I asked one of the girls cleaning a table if we could get the check, she said she would tell our waitress... another 10 min wait.
