The smell when you walk in is amazing. Really gets you ready for the delicious food about to be consumed! I got to sit on the patio and look at the lake. Staff are very friendly. I ordered the bacon wrapped pork loin with grits and it was to die for! Also had the huckleberry drink - delicious!

My partner took me here for a special birthday dinner and it was delicious! I had the roast duck and it was perfectly prepared. He opted for steak and he said it was extremely tender and an excellent rare finish. We had the asparagus and sautéed mushrooms for sides. The portions were so big we had leftovers. It's a really nice spot. Unfortunately it was too windy to be able to sit outside. But that's a great option for a nice sunny day. Our server was very attentive and helpful. He topped it off with a beautiful dessert on the house!

Fantastic meal and great service too! Elise, our server (see photo) was genuinely friendly, very efficient, and made a really good meal even better. Thanks Elise! Sat outside, nice lake/pond view and a wonderful sunset and shadows on the lake/pond. A truly outstanding (and large) hamburger, with perfectly crunchy bacon and a nice charbroil flavor. French fries were delicious also. My wife enjoyed the burger as well. We had mussels to start, which was a nice portion and extremely tasty with a great broth and nice bread. The house red wine was very good according to my wife and my martini was exceptional, slightly dirty. Wonderful happy hour dining experience. We had not been to this restaurant in a good while and we need to put it on our list to go more frequently. Three cheers to the chef!

Nice place for happy hour. I love their patio seating especially when you can see the water. Food is always excellent. My friends get the sliders. I can't resist the jalapeño Mac & cheese & truffle fries. Drinks are very good! Make reservations or you may either have to wait or decide to leave. It's very busy.

We went for happy hour on Sunday. We were pleasantly surprised to find out it's happy hour all day! We were quickly sit down in the bar area and had an amazing wait staff. They also have great seating outside that overlooks the lake but we were also watch wanting to watch the football game. The Frozen Margaritas for happy hour were excellent! They are very thick and very cold so watch out for a brain freeze. The fish taco was excellent and I loved the sauce that came with it. You can't go wrong with the double dip! The green chili pork has a lot of flavor and the pork is nice and tender. We also had a side of fries that we used for the queso instead of the chips: highly recommend! We also ordered the Big Burger but we're too full by the time we got to it. It did look a nice size for the price. For the price, quality of food, and the views, this is a must for happy hour!

I was on a work trip and this restaurant was recommended to me to try while I was in town. This place gets busy and reservations are hard to get the day off so you definitely have to plan to go here in advance. We got here and were seated outside on the happy house porch. It had a great view of the river and with the sun setting it is really pretty to be there. The food was awesome, I had no complaints with any of the courses. The steak was cooked perfectly, Queso had a ton of flavor, and the huckleberry cheesecake was absolutely delicious. The service was fine and I thought they did a good job coming by and checking with us without being overbearing. I will definitely be back when I am visiting.

Food was tasty. Ambiance was noisy. Service was polite but not fast for a large group. So maybe a little too polite? I had the filet mignon, rare, and it was perfect. And huge. Not actually sure it was a filet mignon cut, but who cares, it tasted good. The Caesar salad was extremely garlicky, very classic for a steakhouse. Flourless chocolate cake was ok, too much sugar for me. Nice view out the back patio, and I appreciated the options for mocktail. I had the fake old fashioned and it was lovely. I was here for a work dinner so can't really comment on prices - from what I saw in the menu, it seemed pricey, but the portions were decently large.
