Service and ambiance were great. The meal was skillfully prepared and was five stars. The quality of the food is excellent. Don't judge the restaurant by the building appearance. The magic happens on the inside. read more

There are lots of great things about this restaurant and just a few issues. We were a group of five, 3 adults, 2 preteens. We were welcomed nicely, lead to a fairly quiet round table. Shortly after our waitress stopped by for drink orders and another large group of women were seated right next to us. We could barely hear each other. The entire rest of the room was empty! But they got seated less than 2 feet away. I know they were having a good time, us, not so much. Hostess tip: in this type of instance don't stack people on top of each other. There was plenty of space to spread us out. We ordered appetizers and dinners. appetizers were delicious: peel n eat shrimp, spinach artichoke dip and calamari (my grandson wanted it!) Dinners ordered: Beef Wellington, salmon (ordered blackened), Cajun chicken Alfredo, child's beef tips and chicken basket. All the dinners were great, as well as the asparagus, BUT, the salads greens were brown. I even pointed it out to the waitress, but they didn't seem very concerned. I even thought they might offer a small discount, it was that bad. For the five dinner with tip was over $225. You certainly can eat for less, beef Wellington alone was $50. All in all, beautiful setting, cozy dining room. Friendly staff. We will go back sometime. read more

Great fried green tomatoes, not beef Wellington it is grilled steak covered with pastry unseasoned, not a great sauce to go with it (Typically served with wine reduction sauce was watered down beef gravy). Service was fast and friendly even though can't hear anything inside restaurant due to noise level. Do not expect beef Wellington if you order it and actually know what it is. read more

Fun place with great views of the lake. I try to eat very healthy and I found items on the menu so I was really happy.

Great place for dinner. Close to Morgantown so just 10 minutes away. Crabcake sandwich was excellent. The Del Monico sandwich was a whole steak and awesome! Highly recommended. read more

We had a group of 20 and not only did we have great service but the food was delicious. They were amazing to work with and we're truly flexible working around our daughter's college graduation. I am so glad we had her celebratory dinner here! read more

The food was really good. The atmosphere was beautiful because you're sitting right on the lake. The service was great. The only down side we had was the price of everything. read more

Tony and I went to both the Cheat Lake and Sunset Beach Marinas to check them out. We always enjoy sitting outside near the water for a meal and drinks when given the chance. We went to Lake House Restaurant at Sunset Beach Marina on Cheat Lake. It was very lovely. Very large parking lot! We were greeted and seated immediately on the deck. We opted to sit in the screened in area. Tony ordered a Bud Lite Draft and I went with Unsweetened Tea With lemon and lime. They had in the raw sweetener, which I love. Tony went for the Maryland Crabcake Sandwich with Beer Battered Fries and I had the Cod Sandwich with French Onion Soup. Everything was delicious!! We shared of course, and I'm so glad we did!! His crab Sandwich was amazing and do was my Cod!! The French Onion Soup was divine!!! Definitely going back again! read more

The main attraction to The Lakehouse is Cheat Lake and the fact that right there on the banks of the lake sits The Lakehouse. The waterfront view and lakeside ambiance can't be beaten. As for food, they have a good menu but to me, the taste and overall good preparation were lacking. I had their Cedar Plank Salmon which came with a brown sugar glaze. It would have been good but was way, way overdone, stiff, and dry. read more

Unfortunately, forgot to take pictures, but we enjoyed this place. The food was good. I got the Cajun pasta, which was probably the best on the menu. The view was nice and the staff were welcoming. Definitely recommend. read more

Absolutely best restaurant on the Lake - all seasons! Their salmon is consistently soooo good! Service is attentive! We dine-in & take out! Fun to watch WVU games without the hassle! read more

Out for our anniversary didn't go as planned. I guess we should have made reservations. We arrived around 5:30 or so and it didn't look busy at all with tables inside still empty but was told they only had the heated deck open. We agreed and the hostess lead us to the outside passing empty tables on the way to an empty outdoor setting area with no lights and the heat was minimal. Halfway through our meal it was dark and could barely see our food on our plate I had to use my phone flashlight propped up on my tea so we could eat. About a minute later or so a staff member finally turned on the lights and continued to apologies for our experience. The lobster and steak was good well seasoned and done to our expectations. However our food cooled off fast and the wife had to leave her coat on through dinner from being sat outside. When we was leaving there still was empty tables so we really didn't understand why we had to sit outside and when clearly there was open tables inside. Next time after driving an hr and fifteen minutes for dinner I'll be sure to make reservations for an inside table. My recommendation is if they tell you all they have left is outside on the heated deck is to leave or wait for an empty table to become more open. read more

Just your classic marina: overpriced and average food. Atmosphere was good and fitting for the location. We started with an oyster special for the day. They were the best part of the meal. We got a NY strip with mashed potatoes and ribs with fresh cut french fries. The steak was underwhelming and overcooked. Mashed potatoes taste like instant mashed potatoes with heavy cream and lots of butter. The ribs were also overcooked. They took "fall off the bone" as literally fall off the bone as the meat has no texture. They then decided to drown them in a tub of sauce to cover up the flavor of ribs or lack therof. The "fresh" cut fries were mushy and probably not fresh cut. To top it off the signature cocktail was mediocre. Was there even alcohol in it? We didn't get a second round to find out. I'll give it 3 stars for the view, the atmosphere, and the oysters. read more

Ate dinner with group of 4. We all enjoyed our food and experience. I had the Caesar Salad and the Salmon Cakes. Food was served fast and was tasty. Forgot to take a picture of the Salmon Cakes. Service was great and our waitress kept checking on us. Definitely will go back again. read more

Be careful when ordering the specials. No pricing listed. I ordered scallops over pasta. Meal was okay. Peppers were a little spicy. But cost of the dinner was a whopping $45. Really? I don't mind spending on a good meal, but the cost was really excessive. Not worth it for sure. read more

Location, location, location - the draw of the Lakehouse is, well - the lake. That said, the food and service are good. Within our group, we had the oysters, Italian hoagie, steak dinner and grilled tuna, plus la piece de resistance - butternut squash soup. The portions were generous - especially of the tuna. If this review were based on just the soup, it would easily be a five-star review. I like that they offered several options for a vegetable - vegetables don't generally get enough respect. We had good service, provided by a chatty server. Would definitely return. read more

The Lakehouse - Cloudy day, but still nice to be by the water. - Italian Near Me - Morgantown, West Virginia

Large group handled well at first. Well staffed with young high school kids, that would account for quick service for normal sized groups. White pizza was on the sweet side. Other dishes looked good. Steak hoagie got good reviews. Lastly, One on the wait staff did become rude with a dining party member and flipped him off as he left. The last tray of food was dropped by waitstaff setting us back another 25 minutes. The longer we stayed the worse it got. 20 people 2 hours + from 2:27pm - 4:45pm. read more

They have the best Reuben. Service was good and the ambiance was okay. We only went a couple of times but if you plan on kayaking, it's a good place to eat prior to spending time on the water. read more

Ambience is nice. Food okay. Service is pathetic. 20 minute wat ti be seated. Took hour to recieve our food. U don't blame the servers. The fault totally lies with management/owners. I have been Herr before and have had sane issues. If you have the better half of a day to waste then I would recommend. read more

Nice little place on the lake. Friendly service from the moment we walked in. Outdoor seating in the sun or shade. The food was great, too. We had the blackened salmon wrap and a spicy Italian sub, with beer battered fries. Will definitely try to come back when we are in the area read more

Asked for med. rare...was on grill no longer than a three minutes each side. Won't be going back.

Enjoyed a mid afternoon meal on the deck. Service was efficient and friendly. I can imagine this place is hopping during boating season and on weekends. Settled in a cove on Cheat Lake, the view is mostly boat slips and fueling. Gravel parking lot. Typical American fare. We tried the whale of a fish sandwich and the blackened steak salad. All in all the food was just ok. read more

I really like the lake house restaurant. Each time I've been there, I've received really great service, even in busier nights. I recommend the crab cakes, antipasto salad, and the fried zucchini appetizer. Outdoor seating overlooking the lake is great on a night when it's not too hot. read more

Food was great! The drink was very delish as well! They have indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating has a great view of the lake! We had a big party, and the servers did amazing taking care of all of us in a timely manor! read more

Cute place on the water. We only had drinks and appetizers but everything was good and the server was very friendly and accommodating. We ordered the fried calamari (good but nothing to write home about), the stuffed mushrooms (also good), the shrimp cocktail (basic, served in a plastic bowl but they were tasty), and the mussels in the wine garlic sauce (best item, generous portion and delicious). The restaurant itself is not upscale, casual but cozy. The outdoor patio was closed becauseit was cold, but the view was a bit "busy" anyway with boats, not an open view of the lake. Overall a good experience. read more

Food was oily and not that great tasting. Was fun outdoors and love music which is only on weekends read more

Great view & service was good on a football weekend. But food is fair at best. Sitting on the deck is wonderful

Update: We ate in this year and it was good! Wings were flavorful, salad fresh (got Ranch this time), and got the special fried green tomatoes and they were tasty. read more

Always a good meal in a great location. Sit by the water and watch sun set while having a drink, what could be better?

We wanted to sit outside by the bar and watch the football games but the lovely hostess told us they had too many reservations. Turns out that the outside was almost empty when we left. All those reservations and all the open tables??? Server was good and food. read more

Spinach artichoke bread bowl was AMAZING. Absolutely worth breaking any diet for that. We also had the sunset sandwich, it was okay. Beautiful view and clean bathrooms read more

Beware of this shady business. They'll probably be running similar specials on Valentine's Day. We visited New Year's Eve at 1pm (not even primetime)The surf and turf on the "regular" menu is $75. Ordered surf and turf off of their "special NYE" menu and the price jumps to $120. If you call them out on their Facebook page about this, they will delete your comment and block you. If you're going to overcharge people and trick them into thinking they're getting something "special", at least make sure your kitchen staff knows how to cook a steak and lobster tail. read more

I ate at the Lakehouse last night. The views on the lake were beautiful but my food was awful. I ordered the grouper dinner from the specials menu which didn't list prices and I failed to ask before I ordered. My fish smelled horrible and the risotto and asparagus were way under seasoned. I didn't say anything and just didn't eat much and did not complain. I couldn't believe the $40 cost for my dinner when we got the bill. I won't be returning. read more

Special, sea scallops and bacon Alfredo sauce. They dragged their scallops in flour to get them to brown, just made them mushy the Alfredo sauce was just thick and stuck to the pasta, no sauce at all. Appetizer was stuffed banana peppers. The red sauce was thick as mud. Not a good diner at all read more

Friendly serve. Fair prices. Great wine list. Nice place to eat outside hen the weather permits. Italian and seafood.I had mussels and they were terrible. Dripping in butter not garlic white wine flavor was absent. Skip these. read more
