The Beach House restaurant offers a welcoming atmosphere and attentive service, with staff accommodating large groups and special requests. The food is generally well-received, with highlights like the sea bass and the 9oz filet with truffle butter. Appetizers such as the caesar salad are delicious, and the lobster bisque is also praised. However, some dishes like oysters Rockefeller can be disappointing, being half the size they used to be and not meeting expectations. The restaurant has a beautiful deck overlooking the lake, making for a perfect dining setting, especially on nice days. The menu includes classic lunch items like burgers and salads, though some feel it now tries too hard, offering less of the simple, traditional choices. Portions are generous, and homemade chips are a popular side. While cocktails have been disappointing, the overall experience remains enjoyable, particularly for family gatherings or special occasions. Despite being a bit expensive, the friendly service, good food, and lovely views make The Beach House a pleasant place for lunch or dinner.
