    Such a wonderful evening out! The service and attention to dietary needs is much appreciated! The Chilean Sea Bass was the popular dish of the night w/our table. Kudos to the Chef for making just about everything on the menu gluten-free! Even w/an on-site wedding and the holiday weekend, the service was attentive and gracious. Can’t wait to go back!

    Unfortunately our experience at this restaurant didn't match the beautiful view and decor. Our appetizers were delicious and came in a reasonable time. However things went down from there . We waited a very long time only to be served undercooked sea bass which we had to send back.Thankfully the restaurant comped our sea bass entrées. Wehad a beautiful table by the water but were disturbed repeatedly by the door to the outside being left open as the server went outside to serve customers there. It was a cool evening so the cold air didn't help. I would like to believe this was an off night for this restaurant and not the usual experience. However it would be hard to recommend this place based on our experience.

    Really enjoyed it! We sat next to the glass overlooking the pond - it was beautiful. The ambience was really nice. Good wine selection. The food was a bit of a mixed bag. The sea bass and duck were terrific. The appetizer was heirloom tomatoes and burrata carpaccio. The tomatoes were tasteless (pretty typical these days for heirloom tomatoes) but the flavors could have been boosted/sweetened with some aged balsamic (it was just regular balsamic). Overall, it didn't have much flavor - we'd recommend choosing something else. The creme brûlée was very good but very small (just FYI). Our waiter was very nice but he had a ton of tables. Not his fault - he did his best! It didn't diminish our experience. If we're back in the Poconos, will return!

    I don't know why I haven't been here before, one of the most memorable meals ever! The food was fantastic, our server MacKenzie was very attentive, polite and personable. The food looked like art on a plate and it tasted even better...my wife and I are always on the lookout for establishments that feature new and exciting ideas, not just the same boring menu, week in and week out. We will be back....OFTEN!!

    Upon leaving The Water’s Edge restaurant, my husband and I remarked, “Finally, after 50+ years, we have a superb restaurant in the Poconos!” We arrived at 5:20, so we were lucky to have a window table right on the lake (literally!). The restaurant itself is charming. Dinner was delicious. We shared the Corvina Ceviche, Heirloom Tomato and Burrata “Carpaccio”, Parmesan Risotto (cooked perfectly!), and Char Grilled Prime Pork Chop. Dessert was a difficult decision (they all sounded so good!) but I chose the dessert special, a torte with cake, mango, and coconut. It has to be the most delicious dessert I have ever tasted. The flavors were astounding; even the mango was at its peak of ripeness. Oh, the wine selection and cocktails are superb!!! Needless to say, this is our favorite restaurant anywhere!

    Great food great service we were the only diners on a Wednesday evening. My wife had the fish and I had the short rib pasta. Big servings and very tasty. Manager stopped over for a chat which was nice. The adjacent bar was playing loud country music which detracted from the lovely waterside table ambience.

    I've never had lobster cooked as perfectly as it was for the lobster risotto. Ambiance was great and they had a guitarist playing live music who was excellent but unobtrusive. Drinks were excellent as was my husband's steak.

    This was our first visit to the waters edge, and we could not have been more delighted! Rob, the manager and bartender made a superb gin, ginger lavender infused cocktail that was completely unique and delicious! He could not have been more attentive and went around checking on everyone’s experience several times to ensure everything was satisfactory. We had a hard time choosing which entrée to get on the new menu which changes quarterly as it had so many original options . Our appetizers and entrées were absolutely delicious and service was excellent ! We definitely will return again soon with friends as this was a terrific experience in a very intimate and beautiful setting overlooking the lake ! Highly recommend!

    The food was outstanding and the service was excellent. The only problem was that unless we had sat near the window, which we didn't, we had to turn our menus to read them. It was that dark and the tiny candle on the table did nothing to help. Please consider improving the lighting!

    My wife and I have been to the Waters Edge several times now and each time is as good, if not better than the time before. They change the menu offerings often, so I like to try different things. Their Cornish Game hen with risotto is a favorite of mine. The steak is ALWAYS Great. I’ve eaten the Rabbit over Polenta when it was on the menu and it was Fantastic. Last night I had Lobster and Papardelle with a Tarragon Lemon cream sauce. OUSTANDING! Love This Place. The service is Always Great Too. You will not be disappointed. Cheers!
