Outside of that, their signature item is the smoked wings. They have a great variety of beers on tap and signature cocktails. You can get a table and server, or just walk right up to the bar and order a cold drink with fast, friendly service. A+

Not a whole lot of options on the pond (disappointing). Tracy was behind the bar and even when we switched tables she was our waitress. Unbelievable service.

Great place, but the server was as good as I've had in a long time. And her cookies were incredible and a fun treat.

The location is absolutely beautiful, with stunning lake views that are hard to beat. The food was average and didn't really stand out, and unfortunately the service was quite slow during our visit. While we understand that busy days happen, the staff made us feel more like an inconvenience than welcomed guests, which put a damper on the experience. That said, they do have a fantastic store with a great selection of cute shirts and lake-themed merchandise that is definitely worth checking out. We enjoyed browsing the shop and appreciated the convenience of the marina. Overall, the views and store were highlights, but the restaurant experience left room for improvement.

The setting does half the work. Evan did the other half without making it look like work. He showed up with the right energy -- not the fake "how are we doing tonight, folks?" energy, the actual useful kind. Knew the menu, didn't recite it like a hostage. Recommended the trout and a cocktail that wasn't the first thing on the list designed to extract $18 from tourists. Both landed. When something needed adjusting he handled it before we had to flag anyone down like we were trying to land a plane. Busy rooftop, people waiting, drinks flying. He still hit the table at the right intervals instead of disappearing for 20 minutes or hovering like a drone. That's rarer than the view. Food was solid rooftop American. Drinks were properly made. Service was the reason it felt like a good night instead of "pretty view, whatever." Ask for Evan. Tip him like you mean it. The mountain view is free. Competent service is not.

I am not local to the area and I do wish I could revisit this establishment. My bar fly days have been long gone, yet I guess "closing the bar" is part of my genetic structure, and these things don't go away. It's not something that I intend on doing, but the conversation flows with me and around me, and people just don't want me to go home! So, we ended up hanging out with one of the owners, and this gave me an insight to the whole idea behind this concept. If you are interested in local, unique products, and search for new flavors, this is the place to find excellent quality drinks. There's in-house gin and bitters, and that is all I will say. Well, one more thing I will say: don't be surprised if this bar becomes a national destination. The bar itself is classy and inviting, the music is great, the crowd is cool, but the hospitality is above tops. This place has it all and deserves a visit. Closing statement: very few places deserve 6 stars, this is one of them.
