What a pleasant surprise this was. We enjoyed a very nice lunch with some nice views of Alton Bay…read more The hostess and our server were incredibly friendly, and food came from the kitchen very quickly. We liked the fact that some apps could be ordered by the piece (coconut shrimp, lobster rangoon), so you could mix or match or scale up or down based on your party size and appetite. I ordered a turkey gobbler wrap, which seemed a little off the trail as it is usually served as a sandwich, and had ingredients like hot peppers. Overall good, but I think better with bread. The coconut shrimp starter was very good and the twist here is that it was served with a coconut creme sauce, rather than the traditional orange marmalade. A nice spot for lunch with a view, and we would stop in again when in Alton Bay

We ordered a variety of foods from a Malaysian lamb wrap - mild domestic ground lamb with Malaysian spic rub, slow roasted tomatoes, grilled eggplant, zucchini, peppers lettuce and tzatziki sauce as well as NY Style pastrami with black pepper and molasses. Served with a toasted bulky with bread and butter pickles yellow mustard and cheese as well as a toasted reuben- corned beef brisket served on grilled rye bread with Swiss cheese, thousand island and sauerkraut. The food was pretty good. What struck me odd was that I asked for a Diet Coke (Waitress never said it was Pepsi - I subsequently found that out on the menu) and they do not do complimentary refills (strange for a higher end lunch place). It overlooks Alton Bay which is a nice view. It is also style from a few decades back- I think they could use a re do here.

Finally, now that the 'newness' wore off, 4 of us were able to grab a table with ease. There was live music & they post on their Facebook page regularly with updates on food & cocktail specials. We decided on appetizers: nachos w/ chicken, mozzarella sticks & potato skins. The nachos were really good - I liked the chips they used. The mozzarella sticks were a bit underwhelming, similar to frozen ones I've purchased at BJs. The potato skins tasted like they were made in-house. ABOVE & BEYOND MOMENT: Our server, Jackie, was friendly & patient with our requests. I had asked if they could make a spicy margarita. She asked the bartender & they were out of their jalapeno tequila so they asked if it was okay to muddle fresh jalapenos instead. I said I trusted the bartender to do what they thought best. When my margarita was delivered, the Jackie asked if I wouldn't mind tasting it to make sure it wasn't too spicy. I think the fact they custom made the drink & ensured it was to my liking was great. I see mixed reviews about the prices. I honestly found that appetizers averaging about $15 was on the high side. We'd like to go back for dinner, maybe when there isn't live music. Very loud due to the small space. The ambience is a cleaned up version of J.J. Goodwins & there are (2) pool tables.

They were able to be polite and keep their cool under difficult circumstances. My aunt took me here to get fish and chips. I will be going back in the future. We took it back to her cottage and ate in the sun porch facing the lake. How quintessential is that?

We informed the hostess that we had a gift certificate upon arrival. Our bill was $170, $100 of which we planned to pay with our certificate. After a few minutes the owner came to our table and (not very kindly) informed us that the restaurant had changed owners (but not names) and they would not accept our gift certificate. I'm a business owner and happen to know that in NH, gift certificates cannot expire. Considering that the place has the same name as before, I would say that she should have been required to take our certificate. At the very least she should have been apologetic or offered some sort of compensation. We will never go back and will be calling the better business Bureau. Beware!

Typically, my daughter, son-in-law, and husband will go out for a meal and someone doesn't like something, but my son-in-law took one bite and said, "5-star!" Later, he also added, everything each of us had was great, right? That never happens! Ha! So, yes, we ALL loved our food, appetizers, sandwiches, desserts, and drinks! We even got a burger to go for our eldest granddaughter who was babysitting and she was happy! We'll be back! Meep up the great work!

The salad appeared to have been dressed with apple sauce mixed with water(!) and nothing else, and the pork chop tasted of ammonia and some other chemical. It was dry and inedible. Took one small bite, even though the smell was entirely off-putting. Tossed in the trash at home. A very expensive experience for what it was. The one star is for the welcoming and amiable wait staff. In spite of the super cold dining room in which we were seated (some of the folks in our party, including me, resorted to wearing coats and hats during the meal to get warm!), they were cheerful and attentive. The cook did come out into the dining room toward the very end of the evening and put the wall-mounted heater on, which took some of the edge off the cold. Lastly, on exiting the building, watch your step! There's a drop of about 2 feet as you approach the door to the parking lot. Anyone with mobility challenges may be unable to navigate this and/or the black ice in the parking lot.

They suffer from the curse of many NH restaurants that try to be too fancy (not necessary) & so miss the mark or they are just too overly impress with themselves & just don't deliver.
