    Fantastic food, as always. The menu varies little but the quality is always extremely high and guarantees a wonderful dining experience. We ate on the early side and it was very loud due the apres-ski crowd in the adjoining bar area. That can be enjoyable too, unless you want to actually have a conversation over dinner.

    Our server was Martine and he couldn’t have been more delightful! The food was great, a tad on the expensive side but you pay extra for the ambiance. There was a live band who was playing hits and so much fun. Great, strong drinks. We will always come back here!

    Spent Christmas dinner here with our 3 teens. It was a perfect evening in every way. The ambience & view of the lake are hard to beat (4 pm dinner rez). The food was very good (only reason not perfect was wife's medium rare was a little undercooked). My son had the prime rib -- delicious. I had the salmon, our appetizers were great. The service was splendid...how often do you take your teens to dinner and they rave about how good dinner was?? We will definitely be back whether in summer or winter.
