We had the best waitress and the food was amazing! Highly recommend the mahi mahi salad sandwich. So good and perfectly paired with toaster sourdough!! I had an Expresso martini that rocked too.
We sat outside on the deck and watched the boats and jet skis. It was beautiful. Loved the vibe. We will definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Eating great food by the lake… it’s amazing! We had Summer toast, Lobster nachos, cheese curds and Tipsy Margaritas.
Our service was great and we’re looking forward to more lakeside dining in the future.

Back a year later on a week night. They were SUPER busy, but took extraordinary measures to make sure we were waited on in a timely manner. That was noticed and GREATLY appreciated! The food was full of flavor and generous portions. This place is a must do!

Being able to enjoy lunch on the “dock” was wonderful, we did have a perfect day.
The food fills your belly, not exciting. Pretty much deep fried or a salads made with ice berg lettuce .
We had the fish and chips. I like the panko crusting, it was too thick IMO. And the shoestring fries were fine along with the sweet potatoe fries, I’m glad those were an option. A $3 up charge seemed high, but it’s probably standard.
$17 for fish and chips
$3 up charge for sweet potatoe fries
$7 for a virgin Bloody Mary

Beautiful evening on Clear Lake! Seafood salad was great! Evening though they were absolutely swamped, staff was exceptional and very attentive. We will be back!

Stopped here for dinner after reading the other reviews. Obviously some things have changed. The sweet potato fries for an extra $3 do not look like the previous photos. The menu states that the burgers are served on a “broach bun” I don’t believe the whopper buns from Burger King are really considered that. However, I could be wrong. The only other thing I had a problem with was the “asparagus fries” were the largest asparagus’s I’ve seen in awhile. I would assume you’d use small asparagus for the $13 and we only received five. Of the five asparagus fries, they left the ends on the asparagus. Every time I have ever ordered or cooked asparagus at home, you break the ends off.
Overall nice atmosphere but I’m not sure I’d eat here. I’d stop for a beer though.

Great view of Clear Lake. Food was just okay. We shared a salad and chicken sandwich. It was very nice to be sitting outside. The bathrooms were disgusting! Flies, no toilet paper, and DIRTY! I’ve been in gas station bathrooms which have looked one million times better. Small parking lot but you can park across the street.

The only good thing about this experience was the lake view.
We were seated in the hot sun with no shade, despite there being tables with umbrellas elsewhere . The waitress was nice, but hard to understand. I didn’t have a drink menu so asked if they have any IPAs (had seen one on a menu posted in a google review), she said they didn’t have any but suggested I have a Lake Time Shandy instead. Odd, but I agreed. Then she gave me a random IPA anyway? It was fine since I got what I wanted, just confusing! Husband’s $12 Cocktail was pretty much just juice.
The food we had was way overpriced for what it was. You have to pay $2 extra to “upgrade” to fries in the meals. My fish & chips cost me $17 with the upgrade, but the fish was close to burned and looked like those little crumbed fillets you get in the frozen section of the supermarket. I didn’t get the fries I paid $2 extra for, until I mentioned it. Chicken sandwich was overpriced for what was essentially chicken on a bun, had to pay extra for tomato.
We’d seen amazing looking desserts posted recently by the owners here on google, so were looking forward to that at least, but most of the desserts on the website menu seemed to be unavailable, as the waitress only mentioned ice cream or a cheesecake. We got the cheesecake which was this shriveled up little puck and NOTHING like the photos posted. I rarely complain or post bad reviews but it seems that you’re mostly paying for the beautiful view of the lake; the prices are way higher than their low quality food is worth. It was a pretty crap experience and would not recommend it.

Just a forewarning….there is no inside seating and the patio chairs are uncomfortable. Ordered the Crab Rangoon Nachos and Spinach Artichoke dip for appetizers and they were both a waste of money. The Spin Art Dip was bland and the chips were either burnt or stale and the Crab Rangoon Dip was a major disappointment as there was no Rangoon it was burnt wonton chips with Crab meat on them and the Chile sauce was good but very hot.
Ordered the Chicken Ceaser Wrap for main course and it was small, the chicken was good but there was hardly any ceaser dressing on it, which made it extremely dry.
Will not return.

5 stars for the spectacular sunset view from my outdoor table. Great lakeshore location, plenty of outdoor seating. I visited on a Friday evening and they were pretty busy. Many menu items weren’t available and almost all their taps were blown, but I understand it’s probably late in the season and they were busier than normal with the warm weather. Had a burger and fries and a draft cider. All were fine. But again, that view!
