Everything was outstanding, except for, the dining room chairs. I’ve never sunk so far into a seat. The waiter offered cushions to anyone at the table that sunk too far down in their chairs. Aside from that everything was fantastic!

Went for Mothers Day. Waited 15 minutes until I had to approach the hostess stand to ask for water. Our waiter waited on everyone around us but for some reason kept skipping over us. Finally another waiter brought us water and asked if anyone got our drink order…well of course not. No apologies, just here’s your water. The brunch was buffet style. We were there at 1:30pm. Food clearly had been in the warming trays for awhile. Potatoes were almost black. Quiche, bacon, ham all dried out. I guess that’s why the restaurant wasn’t even half full. We paid $100.00 with tip for brunch for two and one Diet Coke. Very overpriced, poor food quality and bad service. Definitely would not return or recommend. Many other great choices in the area…this isn one of them.

Great Mother's Day experience. The server was attentive and the food was good, though many of the items on the buffet were not hot or even warm. This was the only disappointing aspect.

Food is good. When we went there was only one table occupied, and only one waiter for the whole golf club. He was nice, but overwhelmed. The view is great, with big windows to the sound and the golf green. I think it is the best restaurant around.

Made a reservation for our 5 yr anniversary. It was the off season (4/15). We had the restaurant to ourselves. The staff was very polite and treated us fabulously. We had the crab dip as a starter, DELICIOUS!!!. My wife had a seafood special, shrimp,scallops, lump crab and pasta. She said it was the best she has ever had. I had the Ribeye Marsala. The best cut of steak I have ever eaten. Tender and seasoned to perfection. Portions were very good. The view of the bay and surrounding area were very romantic. Would recommend it very highly.

I did not appreciate that we were not notified that the restaurant closed down due to plumbing issues. We showed up for our reservation to be presented with an empty restaurant. I would’ve appreciated an email to notify me what was going on with the restaurant. We drove a long way and it was a waste of our time.

Dinner was excellent, but please tell the chef to go back to topping the salmon with lemon dill sauce. The new parmesan sauce does not belong on fish. It was tasty, but I had to remove it. Cheese does not go with fish, and the Salmon was smothered in it!

Our table service was very good. The food, however, was a disappointment. We were not pleased with the preparation of our meals. My wife's paella was heavily sauced with a tomato base that over powered the other ingredients and there was no mention of a tomato base in the menu description. We only tasted the tomato base and not the mussels, shrimp, and what was described as saffron rice. The filet black and blue was cooked beyond the medium temperature ordered and was topped with a dry gritty powder of blue cheese that was burned on top. The combination made for a very dry and unappetizing meal. The steamed broccoli that accompanied the filet was very good and fresh. In addition to the meal the table we sat at was on a sloping section of concrete that was canted approximately 15 degrees and it made seating awkward and uncomfortable. I do not believe our experience was out of the ordinary... the slope in the floor has been there a long time and the meal seemed representative of what is regularly served. The experience was one I will not repeat. I would not recommend the Lighthouse Sound.

Ambiance was very nice but not many diners due to off season. 1 waiter for those that were there & hostess assisting so made allowances for service. Bread & salad were great but the entrees were just ok. The crab cake wasn’t lump & a little dry & the vegetables in the risotto were not cooked. We did do dessert - lemon blueberry cake & coffee which were so good! I would give them another try.

Our server, Adria was excellent. She was very attentive but not bothersome. We definitely felt well looked after. Highly recommend her and her knowledge of the menu. The chairs are extremely uncomfortable, staff seems to know and they offer cushions, the seats sink (a lot). My salmon was very tasty, my husband had the crab cake on the house salad and enjoyed his meal. The cocktails are very weak, stick with wine! It is a nice venue and the view is lovely.
