   The location and restaurant is wonderful. The staff was top notch and very attentive. Food was OK but nothing special or memorable.

   Very disappointed with our steaks we eat SRF very often , fat was localized to the edge and too much, 16oz steak was more than 1/2 fat and it was very unappetizing, considering they were $90 each we mentioned to our waiter he explained that it was Kobe but even for Kobe it was too much, a comped dessert for our dissatisfaction would’ve been nice and it wasn’t offered . My Caesar salad was also not good. The dressing was watered down and tasted like nothing. The only flavor in the salad was from the single crouton and the anchovies, desserts were also very subpar, the presentation of the sticky toffee pudding needs a huge improvement Our hamburger at Cutwater was a far better meal. The meal was absolutely not with the near $600 that I spent.

   Our dinner was served lukewarm…steak and side dishes. It seemed to take an a very long time long time to get our entree. We were served the warm slabs for our steak and the slabs were cold before we got our dinner. We enjoy a leisurely dinner but it felt like our entree fell through the cracks. Really not the experience that we expected for almost 300.00 $$ We are locals and have had much better food at the Cutwater.

   Needed a romantic place for our wedding anniversary recently and the pictures of the atmosphere and food looked great, so we chose here. We were promptly sat at our table and offered menus. Shortly after, some small bread and fruit complimentary appetizers were delivered. After ordering, drinks were prompt and fresh. Note that the drink menu is very, very large. If you're a wine drinker, you'll find a slice of heaven here. My wife ordered a golden wagyu NY strip steak with all sauces and butters to the side, I got the bison short ribs with pumpkin ravioli. The food quality was undoubtedly a 10/10. The sauces and butters were fun to sample and all offered very unique flavors. The steak was likely the best we've ever had. We ordered desert, a black forest eclair, which had fun presentation, but was the only palate disappointment of the evening. Note that our server was excellent. He kept an eye on us, without being intrusive. The pricing is a bit high, as you'd expect it to be for the quality, atmosphere, and the town, but we definitely will be returning again in the future.

   The wait time after replaced our orders for our appetizer was over 45 minutes and I had to go up and ask when they were coming out. The food was small portions and the duck that I had was very tough specifically the leg and thigh. a manager did come over and calm some of our food, which was nice, but still really didn’t make up for the experience. This is the third time I’ve had a bad meal there in the last year I think at this point I will be going somewhere else which is too bad. It does have wonderful ambience, and the shore lounge lounge is wonderful!

    Solid option for traditional steak house, and only real option in McCall unless a Whitetail member, but lacks some smaller plate, more modestly priced options. Also adding an option or two for vegetarians would be helpful. Wine list is strong but multiple on retail is high. The bar adjacent to the restaurant is a better option for us.
