What People's Say About Place

I’m SO GLAD we chose to dine here tonight!! We’ve been Tanglewood members since 2008 & have dined here over the years with lots of our local friends. By far, tonight has been the best dining & best food experience yet!! Our server, Rebecca was great!

Fantastic dinner, had a great time! The peppercorn steak was incredible and the strawberry cheesecake is probably the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend.

Definitely did not have any similar experience to the bad reviews listed on here. While simple in its decor and ambiance, the food was incredible and service was fantastic. While the restaurant was slow and the food took its time, it was not out of par for a steakhouse. Never rush quality. Each course of the meal was better than the last. The peppercorn Filet was incredible along with a nice bottle of wine to pair, could not have been happier. The fresh cheesecake was the perfect icing on the cake to a fantastic evening. Overall I would highly recommend giving this place a shot as we did. Will definitely be back again soon.

Ribeye and prime rib was very good. Wanting to checkout the breakfast options tomorrow, but I can’t see to find a breakfast menu ? Update* do not eat breakfast here, similar to free breakfast at motel 8, but you actually have to pay….

Natalie was perfect in her serving. A blessing from God she was. The steaks ribeye and filet were perfect. We could not ask for a better dining experience on our 40th anniversary. I hope you give them a try.

Atmosphere was amazing, dim lit candles and lights to set the mood, tables were set up beautifully, server was absolutely amazing and so attentive! Perfect spot for a date night! We will be back again very soon!

I was very conflicted to come here based on the range of reviews, but it turns out the food is very decently fine and the service is satisfying! Also, the entrees are reasonably priced. Overall, a very fine dinner experience.

My steak was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was that from a movie scene, burning candles, soft music, beautiful lake view, truly a night to remember.
