We wanted a romantic setting with good food and expected moderately high price, but only got one of the three (guess which). Bibb salad was very ordinary. The duck with poached pear was different and tasty. I don't mind spending $29 for lamb entree, but this was ordinary and meat was tough. The presentation of the bread pudding was beautiful but it was ROOM TEMPERATURE and very bland. It had white chocolate and needed something to give it flavor. Creme brulee had strawberries which was very different and added flavor but the custard was blah. The waiter was attentive but very unprofessional. He even gave us a hard time about the time we were taking making a decision despite the fact that there were only a few other tables of guests.\r

I can see how the setting can be nice on a spring evening sitting outdoors. Inside though, they can't seem to figure out what they want to be. The bar has a TV which gives the restaurant a sports bar feeling which doesn't match with the rest of the place. The music was too varied (hip hop, light rock, and everything else). \r

With the large selection of restaurants to choose from in this price range, you can definitely make a better choice. We recently went to Jasper's which was FAR superior. We'll go back there next time.
Pros: view of lake and outdoor dining, attentive wait staff
Cons: mediocre food at relatively high price, unprofessional waiter
