The Rooftop At Ocean Lodge

I couldn't choose a more beautiful place to have a terrible culinary experience. I feel bad for the overworked and undertrained server (yes, Singular) and the kitchen staff must work with subpar food, so I can't blame them. But everything others have written about food is true. Order Filet, no Filet. I have Ribeye. I had better ribs in the Waffle House. And it was $40. Roasted red potatoes were almost as good as the Hasch brews I do on Saturday morning from day potatoes. The bowl of Sweet Thai Chili sauce had wonderful notes of boiled broccoli. The chicken parmesan brought back wonderful memories of elementary school food. The musician who plays on the deck during dinner was phenomenal. And for this wonderful experience I have to pay $112.46. I can't wait to never be back!

TRAGISCHE EXPERIENCE. went for a Bachelor weekend. we had 6 girls and had a reservation. When we were there, there weren't many people. But it took 1 hour and 20 minutes to get our food. the eggplant was cold, the crab cakes were not good and the two fillets were not properly cooked. the staff was so friendly when we brought everything to them, but the cook came to talk to us, and he was not very apologetic. said to ask for a moderate steak only takes so long and was not friendly about it. the staff helped with our bill and really tried to make it right, but would recommend the cook.

The food was great, but the service was a little slow. Had a party of 15 and they served only a gallon boy of the stamp, which was filled with glass there after 3 to 4 pp. The restaurant has a very good view and the breeze was wonderful. The bartender was great too. The manager was nice and wanted to know if they could do something else.

A wonderful date night experience! Beautiful views, delicious food (I highly recommend the scallops! , and attentive service made for a perfect evening. We look forward to coming back for karaoke, ladies night, and special performance nights in the future!

Overpriced food and alcohol, bad food, terrible drinks, disappointing service. Let me preface this with: I rarely leave bad reviews and I?m not hard to please seriously, go look at my other reviews. We had quite an unpleasant experience at the rooftop at ocean lodge....would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Upon arriving, there was no hostess and they seemed confused why we were there (we had a reservation). Once seated, we noticed a $10 corkage fee for wines and $5 for beers....this alone is ridiculous, but to our amazement, the wine we ordered was brought out and just set on the table...so you pay a corkage fee to open and pour the bottle yourself? But wait, there?s more! We ordered appetizers, then didn?t hear from our waitress until the appetizers came out 20 30 minutes later how were the appetizers you ask? Cold, like they had been taken out of the fridge and someone forgot to warm them up before serving. At this point, it was starting to get laughable, but we thought maybe it?ll get better, so we ordered drinks....two cosmos, one old fashion, and an ocean lodge tea...all of which came out individually and were worse than a drink at a college bar. They literally tasted like the bartender had never made a drink in their life which was apparent when the cosmos were brought out individually. If you?re making two of the same drink, you make both at the same time. The cosmos tasted like pure alcohol. The old fashion tasted like it had been sitting out and getting watered down by melting ice for 15 minutes. And the ocean lodge tea? I don?t even know where to begin with that abomination. After that, we asked for the bill and went elsewhere for dinner. Thankfully, the waitress sensed our disappointment and removed some items from our bill but normally the restaurant automatically adds gratuity to every bill regardless of party size probably because the service, food, and drinks make you feel like you?re being punished. I would only recommend this restaurant to someone I wanted to spite. They rely on their location/view, and the appearance of being a nice restaurant, but they are basically a trojan horse of restaurants.
