Our daughter has lived in Lake City for about 2 years, and, since the number of restaurants is limited with LC being a small town, we still had never eaten at LC Bistro before. We decided to eat there for dinner on Sat, Oct 25. The restaurant was not crowded at all with perhaps 2-3 tables having customers. The service began nicely, but we were undecided as to what we wanted when our drink order arrived. The waitress, who doubled as the hostess that evening, then disappeared for about 20 minutes or so. We ordered an appetizer and our entrees. The appetizer arrived in a timely manner. The entrees arrived over an hour later. Of the four entrees, only one was warm. The other 3 had evidently been sitting around for a while, and one entree was overcooked. We learned the following day from some

Worst dining experience I have ever had! Waited a good 15-20 minutes to take drink order( which arrived more than an hour later) Our Dinner order was taken at least a 1/2 hour later and took at least an hour to arrive beyond that. Drinks that were ordered before dinner (2 hours ago) had still had not arrived. My husband ordered a burger medium rare which arrived well done. I ordered tortellini alfredo which was very poorly prepared. The tortellini was over cooked and the Alfredo sauce was thin and tasteless. After waiting this long we were starving so we tried to make the best of the situation. I asked for grated Parmesan cheese hoping to doctor up the Alfredo - shredded cheddar was delivered to the table instead!🤷🏼‍♀️ While waiting to be served I walked up front to let the manager know ho

First time visit on a Thursday evening. Arrived and the bar area was full but only one table sat in the dining room. We were sat within a few minutes of arriving. It took a few minutes for our server to come get our drink order. We ordered two appetizers. The grouper bites were mostly breading with very little grouper. The fried green beans were very good. My filet was a little over cooked. My dates ribeye was cooked much better! Great environment and ambiance. Very cool outdoor area attached to the hotel and restaurant

Make sure you try out the Bistro! The food was decently priced for the amount of food and the quality. My leftovers from the night before took the 3.5 hour drive home with me and was finished for dinner! I got the chopped steak, green beans and fries and everything was delicious and cooked exactly as requested. The only minor inconvenience was there were no condiments or salt and pepper on the table, so you had to wait for the server to come back if you needed them to start your meal. Keep in mind that the menu does not have a lot kid-friendly dining options. The kids' grilled cheese was more like thick toasted bread with half-melted cheese, definitely not a cheesy grilled-cheese that you would expect at home. If I would have noticed before we got back to the room, I would have ask

★★★★★ 5.0 Jennifer Nettles · Apr 2024

We had dinner with another couple @ the Lake City Bistro last evening! The Annual Art Fields event had just begun & the restaurant was very crowded! The staff was very courteous & although we anticipated a long wait they seated us sooner than we expected! It’s hard to adequately describe our wonderful & outstanding server! In the midst of people & demands around her everywhere, she was professional, attentive & courteous! Her name is Christian Lane! With a smiling face & caring nature she made it seem we were in a 5 star restaurant with exclusive attention! She brought our food & drinks rather quickly & meticulously as we ordered it! Thank you Christian & the staff for a fabulous evening! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
