Food and drinks were excellent and the waitress was very attentive and friendly!

Four family members from out of state and I had dinner tonight at The Lighthouse Restaurant. The holiday spirit was alive with beautiful and festive decorations and lovely live music. The food was awesome. Four of us had steaks, three filet mignons and one top sirloin. The steaks were totally tender, cooked to perfection, the salads crisp and fresh, potatoes and vegetables tasty and cooked just right, the warm bread and butter delicious and the Grouper which the fifth person in our party had was scrumptious. Our waitress was very pleasant and patient and very attentive and helpful. We had a wonderful dining experience and I cannot wait to get back for another exceptional meal.

This is the place for a great dining experience. The price is right and they deliver your money's-worth. You will not be disappointed at all.

We went to Rosebuds to celebrate my birthday. There were four of us, my daughter, my granddaughter and my husband. The place is beautiful. The service was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their meal. My husband and daughter had steak. My granddaughter had lamb chops, which were delicious (we shared). I ordered the beef ribs Bolognese, which was excellent except for one exception you could hardly find any beef ribs in it. The waitress did tell me that it would be a bowl of pasta with the beef interspersed throughout it however, there were only 2 to 3 pieces in it, that was very disappointing especially at the price point. Other than that, our experience was wonderful. The cocktail I had was good.

Overall experience was good food was hot and fresh didn’t really care for margarita flights too sweet, waitress was very busy so took awhile for her to get back to us but other than that no issues
