We had a reservation for Saturday at 6:30 pm to celebrate Mother's Day, and the experience was…read moredisappointing from the moment we walked in. No one actually seated us -- we were just pointed toward a table. No menus were given. Cornbread was dropped off, still no menus. I eventually had to get up and grab them myself from the host stand. They apologized, but even then, they simply handed them to me instead of bringing them over. It wasn't busy, and I'm extremely patient -- I was a server for years -- but this was frustrating. It took about 10-15 minutes before anyone came by. Our server was friendly, but he didn't write anything down for our party of seven, and we ended up repeating our drink order. That should have been the first sign of how the rest of the night would go. We ordered the platter ($23), and the portion was surprisingly small: two BBQ meatballs, two mac and cheese bites, queso, and a tiny basket of chips. The food runner who dropped off the meals was rude, and the portion sizes overall were shockingly small for the price. The only dishes that felt worth ordering were the penne pasta and the pork chops. The short rib tasted great, but for $30, the portion was extremely underwhelming. When we ordered another round of drinks, mine was forgotten -- again, likely because nothing was written down. I had to let our server know it never arrived. He apologized and came back to say the bartender was busy and working on it. The bartender eventually brought it out personally. What really added to the disappointment was that the server noticed we had gifts and asked what we were celebrating -- but this was after we were already paying and packing up. I had noted on the reservation that we were celebrating Mother's Day, but even without that, it's something you typically acknowledge at the beginning of the meal, not at the very end. And based on other reviews I've read, this seems to be a pattern: instead of genuinely trying to fix issues, they either apologize in a way that feels empty or blame the customer for their experience. So I'm sure they'll have something to say about this review too. Can't wait for the response. Do better. Also, be aware -- because they do NOT mention this -- that parties of six or more are automatically charged a 20% gratuity. With the level of service we received, it felt unfair. If you're going to charge high prices, the service needs to reflect that. It didn't. We won't be returning. And honestly, the 1‑star reviews are accurate. Just prepare yourself. $400 dinner for lack luster experience ‍

We knew we were in for a great night at Creekside Fine Grill when we sat down and saw the room…read morefilled with a mix of families, couples, and regulars who clearly knew this place well. There is a certain energy in a restaurant when people trust it, and Creekside has that. We started with the crab and shrimp dip, which came out hot, creamy, and loaded with flavor. It is one of those appetizers that everyone at the table keeps going back to without even thinking about it. For dinner, we ordered the Red Snapper Alexander and the chicken cutlet parmesan, and this is where the night really took off. The red snapper was cooked perfectly, topped with sautéed shrimp in a white wine sauce that added flavor without overwhelming the fish. The balance was impressive, and the presentation matched what you would expect from a much higher priced restaurant. Then there was the chicken parmesan. As Italians, we do not say this lightly, but this dish stood out in a big way. Creekside blends Alfredo and marinara into a creamy, well-balanced sauce that takes a classic and elevates it. The chicken was lightly breaded, the mozzarella was fresh, and every bite delivered. We awarded this dish our Best of the Best for Chicken Parmesan, and that is something we reserve for dishes that truly separate themselves from the rest. Service was excellent throughout the night. Our server Erin was attentive, knowledgeable, and helped guide us to some great choices. One small note, the fish and chips did not quite match the level we had experienced on a previous visit. It was still good, just not at the same level we had come to expect. That said, it did not take away from what was otherwise a fantastic meal. If you are looking for a place that delivers an upscale feel without the upscale price tag, this is it. Great for date nights, family dinners, or just a night out where you want consistently good food.

Located within the Collin County Park Marina on Lake Lavon there is a gatehouse that is staffed but…read morethey will waive your admission fee if you simply let them know you are just going to the restaurant. Parking close to the restaurant can be challenging as this is an active marina as well as a county park. But you can park easily within walking distance. That being said your access to the restaurant is via walkways to the marina boat slips. The restaurant is literally on the water so you'll have boaters, park goers etc all around. It's a nice atmosphere. The restaurant food, they have a fairly large menu of offerings from appetizers , burgers & regular entrees as well as specials. For those seeking to enjoy beverages, they have what I interpret as plenty of choices for adult beverages as well as the regular soda options. Staff are attentive & working constantly to ensure customers are served. Burger we enjoyed was the Bleu Cheese which came with fries & an appetizer of cream cheese filled pepper slices all of which were delicious. We'll definitely go back and they also have live music at times as well.

To know: if you're going to the restaurant you don't have to pay day use fee at Lavon. $5 highnoons- we're already in. Deck seating was super comfortable, even midday in August. Food: mozzarella sticks- look I expected bar food. They were perfectly cooked! Not greasy. Not burnt. PERFECT. and they come with ranch AND marinara. Burger- just the way I like it. LTPO mayo and mustard, and this seems silly, but they put the mayo and mustard ON the burger, not in a cup/packet where you have to do it yourself. This was every burger I've been looking for in Dallas. No egg, no special sauce, no wierd ass extra stuff. A perfect burger. And the fries were great as well. Again, not greasy, well cooked. Not too thin, not to thick. The best part was Cailey (spelling?). She took amazing care of us. You can tell she really loves this spot. I know the feeling. Being a full time educator, having a job like this on the side is a break. As a nurse, I do the same. She told us all about the other businesses the owners have, the schedule, the upcoming events. I couldn't wait to get back to Dallas to tell our friends.

The rice was also very well done, flavorful and cooked just right. My only real wish is that the gyro had been thicker. It was thinly cut but still savory and tasty, just not quite what I was hoping for in terms of texture. The location itself is simple and clean and not fancy at all, which works well for what it is. It is a good spot for a quick bite. Drink options are limited to standard Kroger soft drinks and water, but that is not a deal breaker. Overall, solid food, honest cooking, and a good choice when you want something quick and satisfying.
