H	Horia Vlad Guzu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Flush toilets, but out of service water fountain for our own "safety". Do they mean it's safer to drink water directly from the lake?
L	L D on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Having worked there a whole season as prep cook I just want to say this: If possible, bring your own food. Especially if you are vegan/vegetarian, as there are next to no meals that you could potentially have. Also, seemingly vegetarian options like yogurts contain gelatine, a fact most of the staff working there do not know about. Did I mention that none of the sandwiches can be made gluten free? Pricing is another thing; while I do understand that getting the food to a rather remote location has an impact on the product's price, I simply cannot wrap my mind around the fact that management has the audacity to charge $17 for a rather small salad. Want a second (tiny) bun to your soup? Yep, that's another $0.75. To conclude this review, while this place might look nice on the outside, it really is neither worth your money nor time. Unless, that is, you're just looking for a place to sit down.
M	Mausa Siau on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ When asked the front desk about the menu and seating. All I heard was that...., "don't touch the laminated menu cuz we don't want to wash it." "Don't touch tables we don't want to wash it." Went inside to order kids meal, but was sent back to the front to look at the contents of the menu because we are on restricted diet. But the guy was so annoyed and told us that he had explained it "clearly" while not even knowing what our question was. He obviously didn't let us hold the menu and didn't bother asking what we were looking for or helping us with an answer. If not for my kids who were hungry at the time, I would have walked out. I had to go in and order something we didn't know and didn't like. I think hospitals serve better meals for their patients than this restaurant, and very expensive. The bad customer service was the worst experience. I lost my appetite completely. Please don't eat there!
M	Michael Benjamin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Tourist trap of note, the staff member replaced a bread roll I had taken as extra back into the pile.
S	Sindhura G on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food overpriced! For the overpriced food you pay, if you’re a person of Color don’t expect any respect from the people in the cafe. We asked for garlic bread with the soup and he gave us something else. And that was the last garlic bread he had. He won’t apologize and the cashier doesn’t care what you ask, he will reply “I don’t know”. The rest of the areas are well maintained and the people are amazing. It’s just these two people at the cafe that spoil your mood. I wouldn’t bother eating anything here. The food is limited, hardly any thing hot except for the soup and coffee. Seriously all we ask is some respect, and serve your customer without any bias.
N	Nicu Olaru on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Rude and not respectful towards paying customers, acting in a discriminatory manner. Bought tickets for the lake cruise and went inside and bought some overpriced water and soda from here. When I wanted to sit with my wife outside at one of the many unoccupied tables, the waiter rushed to tell us that we aren't allowed to sit there unless we order something. I showed him that I bought the drinks from them, the same business, he still didn't allowed us to sit there for 10 minutes before the cruise was about to start.
T	Tarcisus Ho on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place for a quick bite. Ordered a soup and a slice of chocolate cake. The chocolate cake wasn’t really fudgy. Great place to warm up from the cold.
J	Joel Mosier on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The food was outstanding. The tomato basil soup was great and the pieces of trout and rice were well prepared and tasty. The desserts were flavorful. It was all good. The staff wore masks and hustled all the time.
