    Really good - regardless of the hotel location. Was particularly impressed with the chicken wings - spicy with blue cheese dressing. Also good was the shrimp with Pesto pasta. Lisa was a thoughtful and attentive server.

    Had a great time our server was amazing. She talked to us into the best food you’ve had in a long time. The atmosphere is good. It was a little loud, but we had a great time. Too bad it was too cold outside, but we still enjoy the outside scenery and experience.

    First off cute vibe. But horrible experience. Food came out at different times. We waited far too long once we were finally seated after asking two times. We had to get up and ask for a waiter 45minutes in. Food was marginal at best. Salmon came out raw. Dessert was appaling. The tiny piece of cheesecake tasted freezer bunt and apple crisp was warmed up pie filling with granola on top. They did comp us but we will never return. Service was subpar. Never refilled waters or replaced silverware.

    Service was a little slow (over 40 minutes for a hamburger?) but the food was served hot and cooked correctly so I have to assume the delay was the kitchen and not our server. While the menu is limited, and the chef loves kale (yuk), the food we ordered was good. Personality would have preferred shaved Parmesan on our Caesar salad to the ground Parmesan used. All said it was a good experience and I won’t hesitate to return.

    We always enjoy dining at The Cove. The new menu is very nice and the food is always excellent. The Chef make the presentation of every dish remarkable. It was beautiful looking over the frozen lake at the sunset too! Our waitress Lisa is truly exceptional!!!

    We didn’t dine here. When we arrived we found out they had restricted to a 6 item menu so we walked out. Screwed us up because everything in town closes early.
