So happy we found out about this place. Beautiful scenery. Amazing waitress! ( wish I had got her name she needs a raise! Lives near restaurant is all I know) then there was the food. We had a beef filet and a ribeye. It was as good if not better than Ruth Chris steaks!! With a much better atmosphere! Ty to the best waitress!

4 stars only bc the huge crab claws that i wanted to eat so badly share the same grease as the fish and I'm severely allergic to fish. The service- A1! My daughters and I surprised my parents during their anniversary dinner date... the hostess (for sneaking us to my parents) and the servers (i dont recall their names but they were helpful in getting our order and tickets together with my sneakiness and Ashley specifically for our family picture and her hospitality)! The oysters were huge and tasty, the bacon-wrapped fried shrimp looked amazing (couldn't eat them but my daughters said they were delicious) and the boiled shrimp... chef's kiss! We will definitely stop by when we're back in town!! Thank you to everyone we came in contact with who made our evening full of happiness!!

This restaurant is located by Lake St. John. This was my first time patronizing this restaurant. I was told by someone who lives in the area that homes and businesses by the lake could have their food delivered via boat. Short wait time for dine-in orders. The portion size is large and worth the price. There's a walkway bridge that leads to a seating area that's on the water. The property design is great and inviting. If you're in the area, I suggest you visit this restaurant. You want be disappointed.

Kind of hard to find, but the food is well worth it. Has a great Lake View you can sit out there and look at the lake while you waiting to be seated if there's a line. Nice friendly folks

This is the finest eating we have in the Miss-Lou. From seafood to steak, it just doesn’t get better than this. Try it for yourself don’t just take my word for it!
