Dinner at The View was excellent. Service was attentive throughout the evening, and despite our…read moreparty of nine, the staff handled everything seamlessly. Courses arrived at an appropriate pace, and the team was accommodating and professional from start to finish. Overall, we were very pleased with the experience. My only criticism was dessert: the portion felt surprisingly small for an $18 menu price. The complimentary macarons helped soften the blow. We also had breakfast at The View. The menu and staff seem to steer guests toward the buffet, as ordering à la carte doesn't make much financial sense. Unfortunately, the buffet was underwhelming. The scrambled eggs were disappointing, the pastries tasted as though they had been sourced elsewhere rather than made in-house, and the much-touted granola was served alongside packaged Chobani yogurt, which felt somewhat at odds with the restaurant's upscale positioning. Service remained attentive, but even the staff seemed less than enthusiastic about the buffet offering. There is definitely room for improvement.

Wow, pleasantly surprised and would definitely come back again…read more Fast, Friendly and attentive staff, food tasted great in a casual chill atmosphere. I had the lamb and beef platter,($18.00) which included a Greek salad, huge portion of lamb and beef, slices and I chose the home cut fries, everything was super tasty,. Also, it was a huge portion.

We had a late lunch so we skipped the appetizers. The veal Marsala and chicken piccata were superb and large portions. Adding a bottle of wine ($58) - BTW they have a good wine list with decent bottles starting in the $30s - damages with tip was only $180. A nice meal at a good price. Give them a try.

We also tried the berry bruschetta and it was perhaps the most unique appetizer that I would actually put on this dessert menu instead. The strawberries that it came with were so incredibly fresh. The perfect way to end a meal. The restaurant is located at the relatively new Voco Hotel and wheelchair accessibility is ideal. We sat outside with a beautiful view of the lake. Service was the only thing that was lacking here, and it was not for lack of trying on the part of the wait staff or rather the one waiter who singlehandedly was working about 15-20 tables at the same time as he was the only person assigned to the restaurant. Needless to say it took forever to get seated and our water glasses ran empty. The management should hire the appropriate level of staff for the facility as the current situation isn't good for customers or staff.
