"We had booked this place as our anniversary dinner based on the fact that it 's on Whitefish Lake and we 'd have a good view. First, the good part. Maria, our server, was fantastic. She 's the primary reason that pulled the rating up to a 2 Food was good Ambience was good, the view was ok Free valet parking Now for the ugly. The hostess at the restaurant is anuptight, rude, and probably racist, woman named Christine. We had reservations for 5 pm for dinner. We arrived at 4:45 pm.Without even a smile or any greeting she proceeded to lecture us that we 're early (we acknowledged that) and they wouldn 't beable to serve us till 5 pm. But she would see if she could seat us and get water on the table. We were fine with it. Shedisappeared and we waited in the lobby. Christine didn 't come back until 5. I commented that since the restaurant was not evenclose to being a third full, we shouldn 't have a problem in getting a window table. You know, with a view of the lake that mademe select this place in the first place. She then again started with her condescension that all the tables are reserved . Shetook us to probably the worst table in the restaurant away from any windows and by a wall. Her ultimatum was this was the onlytable that we could have or we were welcome to leave. I was livid at this point but there was no way we were going to get a spotat any other good restaurant without major delays! I bit down on my pride and stayed. Again, Maria really tried to make up forChristine 's behavior and made our meal memorable. The first picture is at 5 pm with literally no other dinners in one in ourzone. The second picture is at 6:20 pm when we were leaving, with 3 other parties dining. Still open seats by the window."
