    1st time back since Covid era and was truly impressed with the improvements. We swore we would never go back after our Covid service which was insulting at best. I’d recommend giving Lake Park Bistro another chance.

    Always a great experience. They do need to revisit their menu…an update would be appreciated. That said, the leek soup was very good and the folks there are terrific

    Excellent food and service. For a quieter dinner, avoid the lakefront room. When will this restaurant open again for lunch?

    Poor service and food preparation. Very disappointed in this premier location as we love the bartolotta brand. Will likely not return, not work the price compared to their other locations.

    The service was horrible. Entrees varied. The quality of ingredients was very good but flavor nonexistent. To bad it used to be a wonderful experience.
