    Would recommend, not that pricy and worth the trip. Great view, decent food, great service and lots of fun. Better to go during daylight around 4-6 have some fun and dinner.

    Margaritas yum.

    On top of the world, well sort of. Catch the gondola up the top and come here , whether for a drink or a meal, or both. The service excellent, food magnificent . The view out remarkable.

    Excellent food, service and prices for what you get on a lake with a beautiful view. I had the…read moreduck, two glasses of Pinot Noir and the snowman for my dessert with a glass of port wine. Superb! I highly recommend this restaurant when at the Hilton or the Doubletree right across the street. Very relaxing ambiance looking at the lake with a fire pit outside.

    One of my worst restaurant experiences ever. It took us an…read morehour to be served a bread appetizer. The majority of the food was well below average. Our waiter didn't seem to understand us (we speak English, English is clearly not their native language) so we had to repeat ourselves again and again and after 20 some minutes they would get our drinks wrong again and again, all night, including things like juice. Throughout the night some other wait staff would notice our drinks and plates empty for long periods of time and would help out because our waiter was nowhere to be found. The 'snowman' dessert was just like eating chalk. The gnocci dish literally had 5 pieces of gnocci laid on top of soggy eggplant. Then the last shock was the bill. We ordered a custom item which had been pre-arranged with the kitchen and when the bill came it was $200 for just the one item, not including any sides. We were told it was going to be 'market price' but I nearly fell out of my chair when the bill came. At that point in the evening we were hungry and tired and just had to get out there ASAP. Highly recommend against going here, I know there are limited options in the area but it's worth a uber to go somewhere else.
