   When we wntered for out 7:45 reservation it was not busy. Although many tables needed to be bussed. We sat outside next to a VERY loud drunk table and next to diert unbussed tables that remained until after our meal was completed. Food was not great and service was not very attentive. I notuced when i went to the restroom that tbe manager had a lot of staff working in projects near the kitchen? Really, how about cleaning off the dirty tables firat. GROSS experience and EXPENSIVE!

   Excellent meal with great service (Jeremy). Salmon was perfectly done to partners liking & lobster linguini. Was delish! Seated on the lake side, a little noisy but tolerable. Only down side was the setting sun. They need maybe a half shade to pull down.

   5:30 reservation. By the the time we left it was very busy. No complaints. Everything was very good! Drinks, food, service all very good. The area is great to walk around before or after dinner. Outdoor entertainment right next to the restaurant. We’ll be back for sure.

   This was our third time eating here. This time we brought our friends from Holland, we raved about your Lobster Pasta dish. On or first visit we loved the size, taste and amount of Lobster in the dish The second time it was a little salty. This time it was VERY bland with less lobster. We ordered the Creme Boule for dessert. The top was burnt and cold and the inside was not at all creamy. Did you hire a new chef?????? We most likely will not return because it is no longer worth the hefty price.

   It was a great surprise to find the Banyan House. The food was amazing. They make their ice cream to go with the bread pudding. Lamb chops were cooked to perfection. The service was the best part. Marley made us feel so welcome. She is a pleasure and a real asset to this fine restaurant.

   Our table had lobster fettuccine, pot roast and lamb chops. Each was played beautifully and delicious. Appetizers of mussels, beet salad and Caesar salad were all delicious and plentiful.
