This time we went and the food quality was less than expected, perhaps due to the fact we arrived later than usual, but still a disappointment. The staff was still very good and service was exceptional.

I wanted to treat her to a nice Thanksgiving meal so that she could relax and not have to cook. I was VERY disappointed in our Thanksgiving Dinner at La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa. Many of the "hot" food items were cold, some even under cooked, the displays were poorly all labeled (such as the salad dressings, I served myself what I thought was ranch on my salad only to taste it at the table and find out it was blue cheese, to which I am allergic to), the cheeses that were served were not labeled, the deserts were not labeled, the cheese display was quite empty and messy and the desert trays were quite empty. My biggest disappointment was at the meat table, when the servers weren't serving meat they were standing around talking, touching other things with gloves on and then cutting the meat and serving it with the very gloved hands that they had touched other areas and each other with. Lastly, it would have been nice if the waiter would have directed us to where each table was set up, we had no idea there was an omelette table. I was very disappointed in the experience and the cost incurred.

                                                                                          Is this helpful?

I'd never eaten at 157 Restaurant before but it turned out to be perfect. The selection was large enough that the picky eaters in our family were able to find enough to fill them up. The food was high quality and the view was lovely. I would certainly recommend this place for holiday dining, particularly when you have a large group.

The manager, Francis, initially said there was nothing she could do, and suggested we eat in the buffet restaurant on the property, which was not acceptable. It was my boyfriend's birthday, and I had a special evening planned for him. Eating buffet-style dinner was absolutely NOT apart of my plan! After making some calls, France's agreed to comp the cost of our dinner from the resort in-room menu, and I will say, we were treated very well by the staff. The ambiance wasn't the same as it would have been in the actual restaurant, but Francis OWNED the reservation error, and ensured my boyfriend and I were well taken care of. I cannot really rate the restaurant food because I never had the opportunity to try it, but I am open to visiting the resort again in the future, and eating there. Thanks to Francis for salvaging our evening.

Sherry did everything possible to find something for my sister to eat, plus make this dining experience pleasant. Sherry is an wonderful asset to your restaurant.

The waitress the next morning was surly and not very attentive.
