Staff is nonintrusive so you can socialize without being rushed from course to course. The food preparation assures a fresh meal although the clam chowder was a little cold for my taste.
Recommend that you make reservations well in advance, because they reward those who have planned well ahead, with seating affording the best views.
1). We mentioned a special celebration, but it was ignored. The hostess sat us at a large 4-top, even though there were several 2-tops available. When I asked to move, she said they were “reserved,” but the restaurant was half empty on a Monday. Later, when I asked the waitress, she claimed it was because there were only two servers working the deck. Either way, it felt dishonest and dismissive. I even asked the hostess and the waiter if the heater could be turned on, but was ignored and a gentleman after we order our food came to turn it on. This was far from the romantic dinner I had planned.
2). The food was just as disappointing, sadly we only order 3 dishes..
Crab cakes-were drowned in mayonnaise which overpowered all flavor…
The clam chowder came full of bacon oil. I don’t eat pork, and the waitress NEVER mentioned it. It’s unacceptable. I order a traditional clam chowder, and when I asked, she brushed me off with, “we’ve been doing it this way for 45 years.” That kind of response was rude and extremely unhelpful.
The poke salad, seriously was oddly sweet and inedible. We count eat it al all.
3). Our drink order was forgotten, and no effort was made to fix anything despite how unhappy we clearly were. We paid nearly $70 for food we couldn’t enjoy and left hungry and frustrated.
Jake’s completely ruined what should have been a special evening.
If you want great food and the beautiful lake views but better, go next door to the restaurant “Christy Hill”. You won’t be disappointed. The food and service there were excellent. We ate dinner the night before and we will definitely come back.
It was a bit dark in the outside seating and it took a while for them to fix the heater. The food was good but pricey.
We had the Thai salad, organic chicken and classic margarita.
