    Have been to Hobart's (formerly the Lantern) many times at McCracken's Landing over the years and the experience is always pleasurable.

    Went there to celebrate our anniversary. The service was outstanding. The food was mediocre but the quantity was sufficient. The parking was a disaster. It was on a very steep slope and being seniors with mobility issues we found ourselves having difficulty getting to the steps with a trench like area on both sides of the road. Other than that we had a great day.

    We recently celebrated our anniversary at a lakeside restaurant, where we encountered several issues with the food and service. Despite the high cost of the meal, we were disappointed with the quality of the dishes. The seafood jambalaya was excessively salty, the Swiss onion soup lacked flavor, and the Caesar salad with blackened chicken was overcooked and dry. The appetizer, which was the special of the day, was the only satisfactory dish. It appeared that the restaurant was short-staffed, which may have contributed to the problems we experienced. Nevertheless, we were dissatisfied with the overall dining experience, especially considering the special occasion we were celebrating. As a result, we have decided to forgo dining out for future anniversaries and instead prepare a special meal at home. We plan to purchase a couple of beautiful lobster tails from a seafood store and cook them ourselves, creating a more enjoyable and memorable anniversary celebration.
