    Excellent food and service. For a quieter dinner, avoid the lakefront room. When will this restaurant open again for lunch?

    The service was horrible. Entrees varied. The quality of ingredients was very good but flavor nonexistent. To bad it used to be a wonderful experience.

    Another amazing evening at Lake Park Bistro! Spectacular food, phenomenal service from James and Alyssa, and an overall feeling of being spoiled. Heartily recommend the French onion soup, the salad with the egg and truffle vinaigrette and the coq au vin! Fantastique!

    Great Location, Great views of the lake. Overall good food with the exemption of the French onion soup which was made earlier in the day and just backed with the cheese over it. Didn’t taste fresh along with the rutabaga. Probably was made earlier in the day and just heated up.
