Food was excellent. Thank you. I’m especially glad that there were several healthful options that didn’t have too much fat, salt or sugar. The service was good with an attentive staff.

My neighbors took my husband and me out to dinner to celebrate my birthday. We thought we were going Dutch treat but received the surprise when the bill arrived. So for us the value could not be beat. However the dinner was wonderful. The service was great. The tables are nicely spaced so the fear of covid is not is not so much there. That is a big plus for us. We have been to the restaurant three times since it has opened. We have enjoyed the buffet once. We have dined twice in the evening. It is so nice to go to a beautiful restaurant with delicious food and fine service.

We had an excellent dinner. The service and food were superb! The staff were very friendly and accommodating, especially setting the group where they could enjoy conversation with each other. Being able to reserve online was very convenient, and we were able to make changes to ou reservation. Thank you for a very enjoyable night.

Buffet selection for Sunday brunch was awesome. If possible, need to find a way to keep the "hot" stuff from getting too cool after placement in dishes. But great otherwise. Service was truly outstanding. Looking forward to having dinner there in the not too distant future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first time to the Lakeside Restaurant! My only comment about the food would be that the waffles and French toast were hard…I know it is difficult to keep such items in warming containers for long periods! Our waiter “Lake” was extremely engaging, attentive, and friendly. The other staff members were very welcoming and polite. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be back!

A nice holiday experience. Food was quite tasty. Sorry there was no apple pie when we were ready for dessert. Suggestion: try a little harder to convey holiday spirit in buffet table presentation. We look forward to another holiday at Ashlawn. Thanks to staff for their work to create this pleasurable meal.

Gravy was heated the most. While food was tasty, majority needed to be heated more.

My wife and myself were the first ones there on a Saturday afternoon. I wanted to sit down and have a nice quiet dinner with my wife. The hostess status over in the corner in the back of the restaurant. And then a family comes in with kids in the whole nine yards and sets them right beside of us with a whole entire restaurant empty, so much for peaceful dinner. Other than that the steak was good the fries were good. They did have to bring us some different bread the first buns we got where as hard as a rock. I will go there again.

Service and staff were excellent. Food was a big disappointment. Everything was out of a box , nothing was freshly prepared or at least tasted that way. How hard is it to make fresh muffins? Salmon was hard and dry, bacon was half raw, waffles were white and pasty, eggs were from a carton, ham was good but just a loaf sliced. I just think for the price it could have been so much nicer, maybe omelets or eggs cooked to order. Waffles cooked fresh, fresh quiche. If I was the chef looking at what I am presenting I would not have been proud to serve what I saw. The fruit plate was very nice and good. It was a very nice place to go and would definitely return if the food was better.
