    The appetizers and entrées were excellent. The challenge for the restaurant is they did not have enough staff to manage the number of patrons last evening which created unnecessary delays in drinks, water, bread service, etc. And the noise level in the back area of the large dining room had levels that far exceeded the ability for two people to have a nice conversation over a holiday meal.

    Amazing First Visit to Water and Wine! My friend and I recently visited Water and Wine for the first time, and it was absolutely worth the nearly hour-long drive! From start to finish, the experience was incredible. Our waiter, Jason, was phenomenal. He took the time to make thoughtful recommendations, and every plate of food we tried was nothing short of perfection. Some of our favorite dishes were the Cajun calamari, braised short ribs, and New York strip steak—all were cooked and seasoned to perfection. Jason's kindness and attention to detail truly elevated our meal, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about providing top-notch service. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a stunning view of the lake that added to the ambiance. Every staff member we interacted with was so friendly and attentive, which made us feel welcome and valued. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Water and Wine to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience!

    Food and drinks were good but Service was not good at all. Way too crowded and appetizers took an hour to come out and dinner took another hour to come out.
