    The location is amazing, unfortunately instead of sitting on the enclosed terrace, we were in a dining room without a view pretty much. The only reason we really came here. The food was ok, but the selection was minimal. Not many options. Overpriced, you pay for the view, which we didn't even get.

    Delightful Friday afternoon (4/18/24) lunch at 230 pm - surprised by a $35 prixe fix (app and main course) that made complete sense since the a la carte Statler chicken was $36. After our two course meal we braved the elements, not before going to the bar to pick up two glasses of wine, and sipped outside sitting on Adirondack chairs. Only one glass though and retreated to the warmth inside to the bar with terrific water views. Will be back..... tomorrow!

    It was great ! We were put in a side room which seem to be reserved for families. View wasn’t as great as the main room or terrace but it was comfortable. Service was excellent but kitchen was slow a bit.

    Our service for “Daffy Days” Was awesome!!! However moving over to the bar, from the restaurant…service was slow and not cordial. The male bartender on was awesome the two other ls were not helpful, no follow up and felt dismissed. But it is the beginning of the season so it might’ve been a little bit overwhelming. I’ll definitely go back and come to another chance. The drinks were so great. It was just a service at that point.

    We waited 70 minutes for a cheese plate appetizer, at the 70 minute mark we left. Service was fine, although they offered a table of four “a single drink or a single dessert” as compensation for our insane wait, which was bizarre. The manager came out and gave us his card “in case we came back,” which I’m not sure to do what with. We came for a special graduation dinner and were incredibly disappointed.
