I’ve been taking my wife there for her birthday for the past 4 years and never had any complaints. Today was a completely different experience the new menu has very limited options to choose from. The chicken was very bland and the vegetables were undercooked. The service was great though.

Not sure we would return. Did not feel like the staff wanted to please guests. Did not feel like we got good value for what we paid.

Some little girl was screeching and running amok and her parents were ignoring her. The staff had to keep getting her off the steps. So annoying. Sitting by the warm fireplace was cozy, given the cold and rainy evening. Our server Chris was very nice and polite, but my husband never got his gem wedge salad. I asked for my filet mignon "medium-rare-plus" and it was red - rare. Chris sent it back to the kitchen twice, acknowledging that it was way too rare. By the time I got my meal I was full from stealing [not-truffle] fries off my husband's plate. The restaurant gave me a complimentary pavlova for dessert - also "just okay". I've made pavlova and I've had it in New Zealand. This one was tasty, but I wouldn't recommend it. My niece recommended this place based on InstaGram reviews. I'm not sure what food and experiences the reviewers are used to, but this place wasn't great.

Reviewed menu on-line the day before which showed vegetarian options but when we got there half the items were not on the menu - including all the vegetarian options. When asked about this the waiter responded "I don't know". So they managed to prepare one vege option - some carrots on a bed of lentils but the lentils were cooked in chicken stock. One of the party asked for her steak to be butterflied and waiter said no problem but it was not butterflied when presented and finally one ordered the chicken fettucine that the menu said included mushrooms but waiter said we don't have any mushrooms is that ok?! Plus the prices are very high for the quality of the food e.g. $67 for a bit of sea bass. Pity as it has the potential to be a great place to eat but food and service have gone downhill from a couple of years ago so we won't be going back to pay those prices.

Food was awful. Burger was cold and over cooked. Fries were good otherwise I would give this place 1 star. Wee ordered 4 burgers all came out very differently form what we ordered. Waiter was no where to be seen after he dropped off the food. Place was very noisy as a party was going on upstairs.

We enjoyed our dinner by the lake at the lake house at deer Creek. The scenery was very beautiful our way it was very cordial and even got honey for my husband as he loves honey with his rolls. The Chicken was very tasty and tender. We got a side of mushrooms. That was also good. We ordered the rolls which had a great flavor, but were a bit too hard for my teeth. My lower rating is due to my husband‘s filet mignon he said it was very bland and ordinary. They put a small bit of a chipotle type sauce on top, but it certainly wasn’t worth the $65 he paid for it. We would not recommend getting the filet mignon, but I would recommend getting the airport chicken.
