    Food was awesome. We went for brunch and the main dining room was fairly empty so it was quiet. I could see it getting pretty noisy when it gets busier. The main disappointment was that I’d made a reservation saying we were celebrating a 28th and a 60th birthday—but the hostess (who was also our waitress) didn’t acknowledge that at all. She was nice but wasn’t super attentive. Overall, a good experience and we will be back as the food was great. A bit pricy, but worth it for the food quality.

    Food was very good and the service was excellent. We particularly liked the sea bass skewers, the poke tuna and the chicken pot pie.

    Summer season .....server couldn't pronounce specials, chewed gum and brought drinks after appetizers. Been here many times but the service has decreased and the food by the time it got to the table well even that, no dressing for the salad?

    Our waitress was a disaster. She started off by asking for drink orders before we were even seated and then promptly got them wrong. That was the last time she was prompt. 10 minutes later we got the drink situation righted then she wanted to leave before we could say we wanted starters. She was surprised we wanted to order. We got our Calamari which was good but the presentation was anemic. It was brought to us by a server and our waitress did not reappear until 20 minutes later until after the calamari was gone to take our dinner order which she was surprised again we were ready to place. Another 30 minutes later our food arrived. For 3 plates of fresh pasta that was a loooooooong time.It all looked like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while. The fresh pasta itself was very good the sauces were bland and thick. The Cabonora tasted to be fresh with a raw egg yolk on top was served WITH a white cream sauce. The whole point of the fresh egg is that IT makes the sauce. Don’t worry the the white sauce dis not destroy the dish but the lake of salt and pepper, the over cooked pancetta and the frozen peas did. My Son had spaghetti and meatballs and he said his was OK. Not great praise. My husband had a Pappardelle pasta with chicken and sun dried tomatoes with the same bland white sauce I had. We dared not ask for red pepper flakes or fresh Parmesan neither which were offered for fear we would be kept waiting for something that would never come. We had to ask for refills 3 times. Which seam excessive - except the glasses were so full of ice there was no liquid in them. After we finished it took another20 minutes to get or bill.We did not order desert because almost 2 hours later we just wanted to be set free.

    Love that this feels like a neighborhood family-owned spot, but unfortunately I had some of the worst scallops I have ever had. Will never order that there again. Appetizers (deviled eggs and calamari) were good however.

    Our party of 4 was surprised at how busy The Lake Room was on a rainy, chilly Thursday evening! We soon found out why. The food and service were excellent. I especially recommend the calamari appetizer and the pistachio crusted halibut entree. I'm sure the steaks were great too, but I'm trying to cut down on red meat. The small Caesar salad would have been large enough to share with my wife. The Lake Room offered a nice selection of cocktails, beers, and wines. We'll be back.

    Our party of four enjoyed a quiet dinner. Great service. 3 of our dinners really enjoyed the Chilean sea bass. The pasta carbonara was completely forgettable
