   Reserved in the woodland village. It was very atmospheric. However- it was 30 min before anyone came to take a drink order. Love the Terrain cafe - but after many years of coming- the food is still just a B-. We just love the environment.

   There were 6 of us today at Terrain. Everyone enjoyed their meals but we were disappointed that there was no French Toast at 1:00 pm. Brunch goes until 4:00pm on Saturdays so I feel this was a misjudgment in the kitchens planning. All in all it’s a lovely place but due to the holidays was very loud. We will all return again as we enjoyed our experience.

   The Woodland Cabins were really warm and cozy so nice for a group of 8 and under. The service was not good, it was really disappointing, and what a shame to have such an amazing cabin experience and not service it well. Also, they were out of everything including the drinks that we wanted. It was poorly executed. I must say that the hostesses were the worst part of the experience. Rude, unwelcoming and either on a power trip or just really stupid, that did not set the tone well at the beginning of our experience. Hope they can get it together because it’s such a pretty place to eat!

   Not sure if the heat was out but there was no communication about any issues with the HVAC. It was so cold in the cafe we had to wear our jackets through our entire 1.5hrs of drinks and appetizers. The waitress came over with a jacket on about halfway through our stay, which was odd if there wasn't a clear problem with the temperature. Other than that, the food and drinks were decent even though service was a bit delayed. .

   The service was awful. 3 burgers and three chicken pot pies and it took forever. 5 of the 6 of us got our meals and the last burger came after most of us were already done eating. This is my favorite restaurant, however the last 2 visits the service has nee slow and very poor.

   Not sure we will visit again in cold weather because it is absolutely freezing in there. Sitting on a metal chair makes it worse. Ordered hot tea and 20 minutes or so went by and we had to find out waiter to ask where it was. I did not take off my coat or scarf and had gloves on until our food came. Our waiter was pleasant.

   Disappointed with our experience. Room was freezing cold. Server did not show up in a timely manner. My coffee was not fresh and look warm. Food and drinks took too long and water did not get refilled. This experience left me very unhappy with returning any time soon. Maybe management needs to reevaluate the steps of service.

   We are in the little outside cabin/tents. It was amazing and delightful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an intimate, unique experience

    They were incredibly short staffed ( guessing that was the issue). We sat at our table for 50 minutes before we even got wine glasses to use. Food was served at 90 minutes. Burger was medium well vs medium rare and $39 halibut was overcooked. 3 other meals were fine. We have been going at Christmas for years for the atmosphere which is enjoyable but will most likely make this our last visit.
