The food was excellent! It was obvious that the all orders were freshly made. The salads were crisp, the chicken was juicy (not dried out) and the fresh mozzarella on the Turkey Club was delicious! 21 Lake is a "do-over" for us! Highly recommended!

It was a very nice place but the food was just okay. I ordered an ahi tuna sandwich everything but the tuna was good, over cooked and 2 thin pieces of tuna. My girlfriend had a lobster roll that didn't agree with her. it may have been a mayonnaise thing with her and not the food.

House salad swimming in dressing. Had to send back. Did not ask for a replacement. Was told our original order of fish dish was not available. Chef never informed anyone of that fact. Chicken dish and watermelon salad were OK, nothing special. Our server Anne C was attentive and very pleasant. We will try them again thinking this was just a "bad" day for the restaurant.

While the food was very good and the service very pleasant, we found that the table where we were seated to have remnants from a previous diner. There were crumbs on the tablecloth and a couple food/coffee stains. It appears that they cleared away the major items and didn't change the top tablecloth. Not impressed by this.

Had made reservations days in advance; they were not on the books. They were "out of" two items on a limited menu. even though we were early for a 7:00 reservation, with only one other couple in the dining room. When the meals came, they were for THAT couple! The bar had no apricot brandy and could make only peach sours. A comedy of errors, and we shall never return. Food was pricey and just average.

We were the only diners in the restaurant which is not a good sign. It was so quiet, the server was also running the front desk of the hotel. Their online menu does not coincide with their actual menu. Prices are different and online it says all entrees include a salad but that was not the case.

The beef that they had at the omlette station was very tough and hard to cut.Great dessert selection.
