Customer Reviews
Dined in the Wikoff Room. The views were spectacular with our table by the windows overlooking the lake. The wait staff were fantastic. They were knowledgeable on menu and wines. They were not hovering but knew when to be at table which is refreshing. Appetizers were Lobster Bisque which had plenty of pieces of fresh lobster in it and had a wonderful bisque. Also had shrimp cocktail. Shrimp tender and not overcooked. Pleasant horseradish cocktail sauce that had a decent amount of horseradish in it - not too weak but not overpowering. Bread basket had a great variety of choices. Fresh and plenty for the two of us. Main dish Saffron Lobster Tonnarelli with plenty of lobster and the pasta is house made. I snuck a few bites of pasta and you know it’s homemade. Also, Filet of Beef that was done
Beautiful interior, great service. We had the butter chicken karaage, ahi tuna tostada, venison Bolognese, and the special shrimp bucatini, side of brussel sprouts. Everything was good, though we had a few thoughts. The brussel sprout side was limitedly seasoned, would have preferred something with more added flavor than just the base brussel sprout. Old fashioned got diluted a bit too quickly due to the small ice chunks. We also noticed some of the hosts were frustrated with each other it was a bit awkward. Overall, enjoyable and tasty.
This was easily the best dining experience we’ve ever had. From the minute we were greeted at the front door with warm towels we had incredible service. The atmosphere was very classy and the restaurant was beautifully decorated. Stacey was our server and took excellent care of us. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was INCREDIBLE to say the least. The steak was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. They added personal touches to our menu and dessert to make our anniversary special. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely be back.
For those looking for a high-end restaurant experience, this is a perfect venue. It was a pleasant surprise seeing my family name on the menu! Truly flattering and well-appreciated! The view of the lake is quite spectacular! The vantage point is as good as it gets. Everything on the menu list is selected with a great deal of attention to details. The chicken is local. The beef is from Argentina, pork from a local NY farm. The maple cheesecake is made with local maple syrup (and maple cotton candy!!!). Award-winning wine list! The pinot from Pike Road, Willamette, Oregon (one of the best pinots I’ve had: wonderfully aromatic - scents of wild berries, balanced taste - neutral ph, very pleasant but definitely dry) and the sauvignon blank (very well-balanced, a bit on the sweet side, good f
The atmosphere, service and special touches were very much appreciated. These extras made the experience worth it. Slightly disappointed in my salmon meal, it was too overwhelmed with balsamic and without it, it was boring. All of the other food was good though, perhaps it was an off night.
