The setting is spectacular and if our reservation had been earlier, outdoor dining would have made the evening even more idyllic. The food was just what you would expect to be presented at a restaurant where everything about the place was well-executed. Madison our waitress was very helpful guiding us through our selections as it was our first visit to the Creag. She batted 1000 on all her recommendations. Great experience.

We were there for a birthday golf trip with another couple. We were lucky enough to sit in the “members” room because there was a large golf group in the main dining room. Everything we ordered was delicious, the wait staff was busy but helpful and of course the views are spectacular. The only glitch was the appetizer and salad arriving the same time, probably because others were trying to get to a concert on the property. Overall it was a great way to kick off our weekend and we would definitely return.

One of the absolute worst dining experiences I've ever had. To begin with, it took almost 30 minutes before we were acknowledged by our sever. Then took 15 minutes to get our drinks. At this point we ordered appetizers and food at the same time. Appetizers came out before our food. BUT THE FOOD NEVER MADE IT OUT. We sat there for 1,5 hours and never had dinner. We watched our server, MEG, walk around the restaurant and never checked back in with us. NEVER asked if we wanted another drink. We asked twice for more water, never got it. Finally got a picture of water from another table. After the frustration set in, I asked the floor manager, a woman, to please help. We were beyond frustrated. She said she would check on our food. We never saw her again. OUr server Meg came out and attempted to take a drink order but it was too late. We were done. She made a million excuses as to why the kitchen was backed up but oddly enough we saw all those around us get their food and more drinks. The General manager came out and attempted to rectify the situation. Come on, if you really wanted to do that wouldn't you have shown up to the table with an appetizer, or drinks or something. We left as they were plating the food in the kitchen, or so we were told. The absolute worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant. We drove an hour to get there. We will NEVER go back. Don't waste your time at this horrific place.

The kitchen was terribly slow on this Sunday mid-afternoon lunch visit. Despite ordering sandwiches it took over 30 minutes to get our meal. The restaurant wasn’t slammed, so that wasn’t the issue. Our server and bar service were fine, but food took way too long. As a member this was very disappointing!!

Absolutely the perfect night to sit outside and have dinner. Waitress was perfect. She was just great! We decided to sit outside because it as so loud inside and we did not regret it. Most incredible dinning experience we’ve had in a long time. Thank you for being unique. We will visit again and again for sure!

Great food, service, and nice surroundings. Only problem was the very loud golfers that had a few too many on the course. Need more separation between dining room and bar area. I will go back but I hope next time there won’t be a noise issue as I would like for our dinner party to be able to talk and hear one another.

Our waiter was a little too exuberant for us. A lot of very fast talking, a lot of irrelevant explanations, just a little too much. He was very friendly, however. And the service was a little slow considering we were the only diners for several minutes and the restaurant wasn’t full during our entire meal.

The restaurant location is amazing! The views are amazing!!!. The food and the service very surprisingly “luke warm” - the “ grilled chicken” in my Caesar salad was basically jerky. I’m hoping we just hit there on a bad day…. The over all beauty of the place made it worthwhile anyway.

Service was very good. Some food (the salad and Cervice) were to salty. Otherwise the food was good. The wine list should show vintages to facilitate the buyer's knowledge of good years when they may not be familar with a particular winery.

The hushpuppies were great as an appetizer. Both our meals, the flat iron pork and pan-seared red snapper were awesome. Cocktails were delicious. Our server was Issac and he was fantastic. So personable and professional yet cutting up with us. Great experience all the way around and wonderful views to boot!!

Our waitress Meg was great however the bar lost our drink order and we were very disappointed with the limited menu along with portions. For example our mussels appetizer was $16 and received 8 small mussels. I have eaten here where the experience and food was much better. Sorry to be negative and love McLemore.

This was a special occasion of Mary Cain's 99th Birthday. While we could not get everyone in the family together it was a special afternoon. The staff is always so patient and accommodating! However on this day they presented my grandmother with a very nice birthday card signed by all of the staff! My grandmother has followed the development of McLemore and has been very fond of going to the Craig for its view, food, and service. If the Good Lord is willing, we hope to Celebrate her 100th Birthday next year!
