    Half eaten burger. The shine on the roll is... grease!
    Al H.

    I've watched the history of Wendy's and it's founder Dave Thomas. Fresh food, burgers are square "'cause they don't cut corners". Dave is the epitome of hard work leading to success, etc etc. Now it's basically run by venture capitalists who will gut it financially until there's nothing left to gut! The stores, this one in particular are dreary and dated. It seems to be a race to the bottom with Burger King. They need a total refresh but I doubt a dime has been spent on this store in ages. I ordered a cheese burger, fries and a lemonade, medium sized. $10 later I get soggy grey-ish fries, a greasy rolled burger with tomato which I asked not to have and no ketchup after asking for no mustard on a tired day old roll. Not only are the fries limp but also no salt so they basically tasted like nothing which might have been fortunate. Busy body Karens who never go to fast food joints probably have them use old rolls to cut down on " food waste", and use some enviro- healthy frying substance that would be better used on a chainsaw bar. In the days of old when fast food was good and a value a occasional miss would be acceptable, but for $10 I'd like a bit more effort! I'm sure the asset stripping owners of Wendy's will have milked it dry soon and put it out of it's misery so the problem will cure itself. So don't be sucked in by the short drive thru line (guilty) and try anywhere else. Their trademarked slogan is "Quality is our recipe". What a load of crap. The motto should be " hey by the time they realize we suck they'll be back on the highway and won't turn back" Wendy's in Lake O...... don't go!!

    Feel like the burgers are getting worse. They are disgusting and overpriced. Service was fine. Ambiance was fine.

We had some craft cocktails- the Pink Lady and the Pink Pedal. Both were tasty but I preferred the refreshing citrus in the pink pedal on a hot day. We ordered a charcuterie board w the whitefish dip for an appetizer and the beet salad and Mediterranean pizza for our meal. The board was just OK. Two types of cheese, two slices each; two types of meat; three slices of those. Honey mustard; jam; raisins and a few corn snacks. Not enough crackers (4) for what we had. The whitefish was already a $4 upcharge; and we asked for extra crackers, it was another $3 charge. Most folks don't eat whitefish dip straight so that was a miss in my opinion. A $24 appetizer is a lot. The beet salad was all arugula and pretty good with a tangy dressing. The pizza did not come with cheese; so that was another upcharge. And its topped with more tangy arugula so that's on us for not realizing how many greens we had ordered. The service was friendly and attentivefor the most part. We had hoped to order their cheesecake but the server got tied up with other tasks outside and we had a fixed time frame so by the time she came back we had to leave. Would I come back? Perhaps to sit at the bar and have some drinks and appetizers. I don't know that I would order meals again. Owners should pay attention to the nickle and diming as it does tarnish the experience. Pizzas by nature should come w cheese even if its optional. If you upcharge for dip on the board pay attention to what the patron might need w that additional item. $3 for some extra crackers to go w the dip is excessive.

    The food was delicious and they make a mean (really good) caramel coffee!!!…read moreThe service has always been top notch when we have been there.

The coordinator and staff were personable, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. They took the time to listen to our ideas and offered thoughtful suggestions on how to make the space work best for our vision. Their experience and attention to detail were invaluable. Honestly, we had planned to "wing it" when it came to the setup, but when we arrived, we were blown away. The entire upstairs area had been beautifully organized with seating, and they had even created an aisle for me to walk down. It was such a special surprise and made the ceremony feel even more meaningful than we had imagined. We specifically chose this venue because we wanted an intimate wedding surrounded by our closest family and friends, and with about 40 guests, the space was absolutely perfect. It felt warm, comfortable, and personal--exactly the atmosphere we were hoping to create. In fact, it exceeded our expectations and was even better than we had imagined. If you're looking for a venue with a wonderful staff, exceptional attention to detail, and a space that feels both intimate and special, we highly recommend this venue. They helped make our wedding day unforgettable!

The place isn't very big, so it can fill up fast, but the menu had a variety of options for everyone. We split a spinach and artichoke dip appetizer, pepperoni pizza, fish tacos and fries. Overall a great place to have a relaxing meal and sit by the water!

    Wow! A must visit! Had an amazing dining experience! No better restaurant on the lake. The…read morerestaurant location used to be a pediatrician office? Who knew! The place also has been open a little over a year. Made reservations online through open table which was easy - requested to sit outside. Came in on a Thursday at 5p and the parking lot was already getting full. We walked in and the hostess immediately asked if we had a reservation. She asked if sitting inside was okay and we told her no, we would wait to sit outside. The manager chimed in and validated our request to sit outside. Plenty of tables were open outside on the patio. So not sure about the waiter rotation or what. Tables and chairs outside were ok - our table was wonky and was moving both back and forth and side to side. The chairs were standard wicker uncomfortable patio chairs. Ok, my complaining ends here! The views are everything and lots of docking if you are coming to dine from the water. The staff, especially our waiter were amazing. Attentive and welcoming. Menu wise - a good amount of options. Drink wise - no mocktail options. Our waiter agreed that there should be some on the menu and maybe one day there will. Happy hour was going on but all the happy hour menus were located on the inside tables. So not sure if that is on purpose or what? We went with the spinach and artichoke dip and our waiter asked if we wanted it off the happy hour menu which is a smaller portion. We asked what else is on the happy hour menu and he said fries along with wings. We then put in an order of wings too. Food came out fast and our appetizers were excellent. The wings were a good size and the buffalo sauce had a good bite (no veggies or dip to cool you off though). The spinach and artichoke dip was creamy and chips were crunchy. Good portion even with it being a happy hour option. Entree wise got the fish and chips and smash burger. However, the smashburger had a black hair chilling on the burger. Our waiter made it right and could see the hair right away on why I sent it back. The re-fire of the burger didn't take too long. Food was excellent! The fish and chips had such a good crunchy breading and fish was delicious. The smashburger was meaty and cheesy. The patties were decently thick for being a smashburger. The fries were awesome! A good crunch and with a nice seasoning on them. Inside is clean and seems to have more comfortable seating. Bathrooms are behind the bar but super dark lighting wise inside. Our waiter apologized a few times for the hair on the burger and they also took the burger off our bill. Not necessary at all! But a nice gesture that didn't go unnoticed. Would absolutely come back!
