   Beautiful restaurant. Understaffed. Sat down and ordered food and drinks five minutes later. Drinks took 20 min to come from the bar and were short pours (I used to bartend I know when I’m not getting a full serve). Food took 45 min. We have small children. Just not acceptable.

   It took to long to be offered drinks a then finally be served drinks 30 minutes later. Dinner was delayed as well. When it was finally served 1 hot and 15 minutes after being seated, my wife’s dinner had been overcooked but served cold and dry.

   The service was quick and efficient. There were several healthy choices available. (We understand that the service is not always quick and efficient, but we had a great dining experience.) There is a modest "Beautification Fee" added onto your bill. Entrance to the state parks is free, so this fee (tax) is one way to generate money for the upkeep and improvements in the state parks.

   This restaurant requires reservations 7 days a week. Don't know why. When we arrived for our Sunday evening 6:45, there were only a few tables in use. The dining room is a large open lodge-type space, exposed structural wood beams, etc. Comfortable seating. The staff weren't busy but we sat for a while before the server came. She did apologize, saying she wasn't told she had customers at one of her tables. She was actually quite nice and knew what she was doing. Unfortunately, the kitchen didn't seem as diligent. It was close to an hour from time we sat until we got our food (in a near empty restaurant!) Food was OK, nothing great, sort of "casual family restaurant" stuff. Breakfast is also served here, but it is decidely over-priced (even with the egg-supply crisis.) We would have gone elsewhere but next nearest sit-down breakfast place was 10 miles away.

   We had eaten here the night before and it was great, but this time they were not nearly as busy and it took longer for our food to come out, and when it did finally come out mine was cold. We had to ask twice for silverware-they need to set the silverware as they are setting people at the table-this was an issue the night before as well. Our drinks came out fairly quickly and then we really didn’t see our server again for 35 minutes, by then our drinks were fine, our water was gone. She stopped by to let us know our food would be’ out next’ and she’d bring more water and another glass of wine for us. We watched 3 other tables get their food, still no food or drinks at our table. She finally did bring the drinks and our food, my husbands burger was fresh and hot as was his soup-which he thought would come out early-but my salmon was cold and the rice was cold and cakey by then. It was good flavor just not warm at all. It’s such a beautiful setting and the food tastes wonderful, but it just took so long and all of the servers-not just ours-spent a lot of time just standing around talking to one another and eating in between. We want this place to be as good as it should be-more training for wait staff and quicker food preparation is a must.

   Are a fabulous meal surrounded by beautiful scenery! It’s great they have indoor and outdoor seating options. I had the chicken pesto Alfredo and it was delicious, my husband had the smoked brisket sandwich-also terrific! Fries were ok. We are looking forward to eating here again during our stay-they have a lot of menu options. Tables beside us got the salmon and the Lodge Burger and both said they were delicious-the burger looked divine!
