Our food was great, service was even better, and loved the formal setting. The restaurant is a more higher end option in Manteca compared to most restaurants in the area. I ordered the filet mignon and enjoyed it. I always order my meat medium rare but my steak looked VERY rare. Most of it was good, but I couldn't finish it as the second half of it seemed raw. Other than this, I truly enjoyed my experience. We had great cocktails at dinner and started with the oyster appetizer. Highly recommend visiting this local gem!

The nicest restaurant at the Great Wolf Lodge. Service was friendly. The food was pretty good…read more The wine list was OK. I'd rate the restaurant as barely above average. For example, I ordered the New York strip. It was cooked perfectly, but the quality of the beef was not great. My wife had the same comment about the Steak Frites, although she said her grilled shrimp were delicious. My kids loved it, which counts for a lot after a long day at the water park. My older son enjoyed his grilled Salmon, but I tasted a bite and would again rate it similarly to the beef. Prepared well, but I've had better fish before. The cornbread was super sweet. Way too sugary, could barely taste the corn. Our waitress was friendly and nice. She didn't know the difference between real and creamy horseradish. I had to remind her about the wine I ordered which was sitting in the bar window for a while. Try to get a table inside unless you want to eat withing earshot of a kids dance party in the evening.

Her customer service skills were absolutely superior from start to finish. Handling a group that size is not easy, but she moved effortlessly the entire night and never once seemed overwhelmed. Katie was personable, upbeat, attentive, and had an incredible personality that made the whole experience even better. She went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of, drinks stayed full, orders were right, and the atmosphere stayed fun and relaxed. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and takes pride in what she does. This was my third or fourth visit here, and all of the waitresses have always been awesome, but this was my first experience with Katie--and in my opinion, she is the gold standard of customer service. She turned a good dinner into a memorable experience. If you visit Falcon's Lair, I highly recommend asking for Katie. She's the kind of employee every restaurant wishes they had!

I am gluten free and my brother-in-law has a shellfish allergy. At most teppanyaki restaurants, that would mean our food gets cooked in the back and sometimes forgotten about. Not here! They always cook my food on the cook top but seperate it out before adding soy sauce and cook the shrimp at the end for not contaminate my brother-in-law's meal. Its very rare for both of us to go to a restaurant and be accommodated and included. We always choose Ichiban if we have an hour for dinner - and it's always worth it!

My party was seated fairly quickly. Our waitress took all our orders by memory - we were a party of 8! I got the Chicken Marsala: Chicken, sauce, mixed veggies, mashed potatoes, and gravy. I started off with the mixed veggies - they were cooked soft, just how I like them. They were also flavorful! Not just regular ole steamed frozen veggies, they definitely were buttered and seasoned or something. Next, the mashed potatoes. I'm not a mashed potato connoisseur - matter of fact, I usually skip eating mashed potatoes when they're available. These mashed potatoes however were so flavorful! And it was not only the gravy doing all the talking, it was both the mash and the gravy. I was impressed! Lastly, the chicken Marsala. The chicken itself was cooked to perfection, moist on the inside & fully cooked - and with chicken breast, we all know how hard that is to accomplish. The sauce was incredible. I have never had any Marsala sauce as good as that. So much flavor, very savory. Altogether, the flavors worked together and worked perfectly. If only I wasn't an hour away, I would come here more often. I hope to be here again someday!

Unfortunately the bread was not edible due to the taste of old grease. I simply discarded the bread and ate the 2 piece of turkey and bits of bacon. My son enjoyed the Tri-itip, but again the grilled bread tasted of old grease. He enjoyed the fries as well. The service was good and the atmosphere was pleasant, but at these prices, and the taste of old grease from the grill, I could not recommend this restaurant. The bill was $39.97 and we did not have anything to drink! Go democrats! Lol!

And you have to save room for the cheesecake! Wow!!!! What a wonderful evening well spent. We will definitely be back!

A short drive off I-5, the Haven sits on the edge of the San Joaquin River. The river was flowing west as the tide went out but we were treated to a show by a seal.

The calamari was tender. Hubby had a bacon cheese burger with onion rings. The burger was juicy and well seasoned. The onion rings were crispy and lightly coated.

We were the first diners on Saturday night and had our pick up tables. The restaurant was clean. The staff were very friendly. Fortunately, we got in just ahead of a large party so that our order was not delayed. Our server was very occupied with a large party. We were very fortunate to meet the owner Ray. We were amazed to learn that he has owned the restaurant for 40 years and is still working at 78. He was very friendly and told us about himself and his family. He made our visit. The bread they serve is delicious. We both had the balsamic vinegar dressing on the salad. The dressing was evenly distributed, and very tasty. The onion rings are crispy and the batter is flavorful. We both had the ribeye. They served it with atomic horseradish. I wasn't careful and nearly cried.
