    Lovely location - the entire resturant was empty while we were there, making it feel like a very exclusive club.

    Perfect spot for a larger group…What a great meal! And our server, Sam, was outstanding! Not to mention the views!! The best fish and chips I’ve had in the valley. Friends said the same about the sea bass and chicken. Kudos to the chef. I only wish I could eat my dinner while floating in the lazy river, hah.

    The Steak and Eggs Benedict and Banana Foster Waffle, accompanied by Bloody Mary, Fresh squeezed Orange Juice and side cup of coffee marked every box of need; Savory and Sweet! Very appropriate portions, fresh ingredients and attractive plating. We only visited to eat, but maybe you should bring a bathing suit and stay the afternoon, glad we tried the new place and gave it a try, our 20 minute drive back we both just raved how great the food was. Live DJ was a nice music ambience but not conversation disturbance and it was pleasant to have a direct restaurant access and not commingled with waterpark attendees, good layout so far with the transition!

    I had just been here the day before for lunch, where everything was very good. Had family coming in and wanted them to experience the patio. Upon arriving, there was a band outside (which we normally would be happy about) but the music was SO loud that we had to inside. Even inside, we could barely hear each over the band and the large party that was at another table. Someone must have said something because when the band came after a break, the volume was much more tolerable. Food was very good, as normal. Service was ok. She came over and poured water and then said do you know what you want to order. Never introduced herself or said she was our waiter. I thought she was the assistant. Again, food was good which is why we keep returning. However, as mentioned, I had been there the day before and they were out of all desserts except one (after telling us about all of them). That was a Friday afternoon, today was Saturday afternoon, still the same scenario, only one dessert. How do you go into a weekend and only have one dessert available?! Makes no sense to me.

    We ate in the evening on a Friday so there wasn't much activity with people surfing. We ate outside on the patio which was great. The noise factor wasn't coming from the people dining but from the duo singing as entertainment. Suppose if the patio had been more crowded, we wouldn't have noticed the entertainment so much or thought that it was too loud. Overall, a great experience. Just a bit overwhelmed with the loud entertainment on that particular night. Would definitely come back! Great spot. .
