    We chose the 4 course meal with wine pairings- worth every penny!! For starters goat cheese/shallot and pork belly. Moved on to French onion soup and scallops on mushrooms. For main courses we tried the quail and beef cheeks and dessert was the chocolate mousse and sorbet trio. Every course was simply outstanding!! Katie and Isabella (I’m not 100% on her name- so sorry) were wonderful. We were so pleased with the quality of food and the wine flight was delightful. Can’t wait to come back - we had a window seat but it was dark and we couldn’t see the lake. Next time- brunch 😊.

    I have gone to Lake Park for years, and this was by far the worst dinner we’ve ever had. Drinks were terrible- I ordered an Espresso martini, there was zero vodka in it. My kid ordered a medium cooked tenderloin and it came so over cooked he struggled to cut it I ordered a Sauvignon Blanc and was given the yellowest Chardonnay Multiple other issues. The servers were lovely that was the only good part. It was my birthday. Pretty disappointing.

    Always a good experience here. Service is always attentive and enhances the experience. Food was delicious and inviting, esp the Dover Sole (finished tableside) which was spectacular. This visit was on a cold Tuesday night, so it was pretty quiet
