    I haven't been to the restaurant at Convict Lake in years. It was all I remember it being and more, our service was fantastic, Elijah was attentive, accommodating and knowledgable. The food and drink were fantastic, the Venison was prepared perfectly and my Wife's filet that she likes medium well was still juicy and tasty. If you get the chance sit by the fire and enjoy a lovely evening...we did!

    We celebrated my mom’s birthday here, and it was truly a wonderful, warm experience. The staff went above and beyond to make the night special, especially in accommodating my dad, who is disabled, with such thoughtful care. Both my parents had the best time—the ambiance, the attention to detail, and the genuine kindness of the staff made it unforgettable. And the food? Absolutely perfect as always, fine dining at its best. When you find a place that pairs incredible dishes with a genuinely caring team, there’s really nothing more to ask for. Highly recommended!
