    As usual, the food and setting (great window seat) were as expected - wonderful. But a number of small irritations made the evening less than ideal. The room temperature. Freezing. My wife needed a heavy wrap (which she didn’t have) and I wish I had my wool blazer. Staff really needs to be aware of the guest environment. Requests to turn down the air were met with blank stares. Other sleeveless women noticeably cold. Tonic. Nothing ruins a good G&T like flat tonic out of a gun and not having a highball glass - NOT your manhattan or old fashion glass. Stock Fever Tree in bottles and charge an extra $.75. The Chicken liver mousse was great, but two modest pieces of brioche was half of what was needed for the healthy piece of mousse. Roquefort salad really needed more Roquefort and a tad more dressing. Never saw an experienced “Adult” wandering the room to check out all OK with guests. Greeted by pleasant, but young, front of the house. Waitstaff were harried that evening. Again, your food is always good, but these little irritations give us pause to return.

    We were disappointed in the room size. Very crowded which made for loud room and hard to see the lake view. Food, servers were excellent

    Was surprised that they had changed their policy on allowing wine to brought in? Must be new!!! A bit embarrassing to bring in a bottle, which I have many times at several of their restaurants!! Not a good way to start the meal!!! Food was good as always…very loud where I was seated making conversations difficult!

    I’ve never had a bad experience at Lake Park Bistro. The service is always top notch. The food was amazing! Started with the steak tartare, then the truffle mushroom salad, and my entree of coq au vin! Chef’s kiss! It was a birthday celebration and they gifted me their amazing flourless chocolate cake. Melts in your mouth! If you want to be pampered in every way, make a trip to Lake Park Bistro! Bon appétit!

    We celebrated a birthday and anniversary. Everything was perfect-including the view of Lake Michigan. The food was exceptional and the wait staff wonderful. We usually go on our anniversary but look to go more often.

    A lovely dinner on the lake with fixed price menu and other à la carte options. Everything attractively served by attentive wait staff. We ordered the fixed price menu ($75) and had several options to choose from for each course. The food was delicious, but a bit skimpy for the price. Wine by the glass was reasonably priced.
