Classical preparations from seasoned chefs. They bring a European flare to high quality ingredients. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The wine list has both old world and domestics options that pair well with the cuisine. Make sure to ask about the specials.

We have always loved Surfside but the chef's this year for season 2024 are amazing. A changing menu with wonderful specials and a great wine selection. Upscale Lake Dining.
