   Good food though a bit rich. I would like to see some healthier options for vegetarians or gluten free diets. Need more whole foods, rice, hummus, fruits & veggies, tofu, vegie patties and the like as options for healthy delicious dining! Ambience can't be beat and the service is exemplary!!

   We attended the Mothers Day Buffet. We were promptly seated. The buffet table was setup and ready. The food was great. Service was fantastic. We did not expect such a fantastic experience on a Mothers Day event

   We had a 1pm reservation and were seated immediately. Service was friendly, prompt and available if needed. Food variety, availability, and preparation was all very good. Our tastes are for very flavorful, bold, and often spicy dishes. To appeal to all, flavors are there but tame. We all agreed the salmon and seafood bisque was excellent. The event is pricey at $45 per person, but a treat for Mother's Da. Walking around the lodge after lunch adds to the event, since we had never been there.

   My wife and I had a lovely dinner here. It was very quiet and not crowded. The food was on par with Altius or Molinaro’s in Pittsburgh. Definitely a diamond in the rough as far as cuisine.

   We attended the Easter Buffet. The food was delicious with a wide variety of dishes served. The waitstaff was attentive. I would definitely return next year for this event.

   We loved the atmosphere! Service was great! But the Seafood Buffet was extremely disappointing! The only reservation time we could get was 8pm. All the food tasted old - you could tell it had been sitting out for a long time. The shrimp scampi, risotto, & salmon were over cooked. The Crab Cakes had several shell pieces in them. The Shrimp & Lobster Ravioli was mushy. The fried foods (oysters, clams, shrimp, & fish) were soggy. Even the rolls were cold & hard. However, the salad & mussels were delicious. And the desserts we tried were yummy. But overall, it’s way overpriced for the quality at $45 each. Maybe dining earlier when the food was fresh would’ve made a better experience. Note: Dining room is on 3 different levels with a few steps to each & is NOT handicap accessible.

   Dining room too cold and dark. Food taste temperature and quality disappointing for prices. Scallops over cooked. Risotto overcooked. Crabmeat fishy taste not seemed fresh. Baked potato lukewarm and undercooked. Steak overcooked. Bread tasteless.

   Atmosphere was superb! Service was wonderful! Food was hit or miss. Dessert was amazing. The cheesecake and carrot cake was to die for! As for the entrees- my friends and I agreed that some of the flavors did not seem to go together. And the crab cakes were so salty we could not eat them! Maybe personal preference. Not sure we’ll be back for the seafood buffet, but certain we’ll be back for another dining experience. Hopefully to stay at the lodge next time.

    I really love Oglebay. It’s such a beautiful refuge, and they do such a wonderful job making it that way. From the free live music to the beautiful grounds, it’s a goto for us. The staff at the restaurant is simply top notch. They seated us in a perfect location. The hostess and waitress were all smiles and very attentive. I just have to be honest that the food isn’t always the best. I realize that buffets can dry food out, so that might be the main issue. It’s a lot of money, so maybe my expectations are too high. Overall, we had a great experience and we don’t have any regrets choosing to dine here.

    Food which is usually great was sub par at best. Cold food, lack of any flavor, many basic condiments missing. Requested window seating in reservation but was seated away from the window. Overall very overpriced for what was delivered.

    We had a 6:30 seating at which time we were told that the scallops and crab was gone and my buddy and I received the last 2 baked potatoes for the evening, almost all plates were cold and coffee was bitter. I am from the area and other two couples were not. We have been coming down for 4/5 years to a cabin. What a shame, especially for the cost, and also embarrassing.

    The atmosphere, food, and service were really good. No complaints. Oglebay Park and Wilson Lodge have always represented good quality. When I think of Oglebay, I automatically think of the word class. The Park has a lot to offer, and the Ihlenfeld Dining Room is just one of many wonderful things about Oglebay.

    For an anniversary dinner, the value for the food and service was incredible. Dark lighting and candles set the mood. The staff was welcoming, friendly, quick and attentive. The setting was quiet so we could talk and there was a sense of privacy and intimacy. The staff even helped me surprise my date with champagne, cards and flowers and even accommodated last minute changes. Would definitely go back for a celebration!

    Overall a great experience. I would highly recommend some soft music playing in the background. Didn’t enjoy hearing other conversations due to no music. Made it harder to concentrate on my own conversation. Overall we did like it. Food was excellent!

    Beautiful place. Went on a Monday with reservation for a special birthday. Only 3 couples there yet seated very close together during pandemic Salmon overcooked over seasoned. Caesar salad disappointing. Very high prices. We asked to have our food wrapped to go due to loud conversation at next table. Ruined the birthday
