"We came had dinner,everything was tasty freshly cooked. Your menu is different from the one on line."

"The food was great - we each had an entree. We were not served the vegetables specified on the menu but it was not a big deal. They were quick to rectify the mistake in my order with the starch. The biggest surprise was that the dining room and indoor bar was closed. A staff member offered to check if we could eat (alone) in the dining room. The only other option was to climb a flight of stairs and eat on the outdoor deck. Not a big deal, regardless of our age, but I was surprised that there was no warning of this online when we checked their hours and menu in advance. I assume there is handicap access to the 2nd floor deck."

"To be fare, we went on a really busy day, but got there before it became busy. Lasagne was too dry. My friend had the turkey sandwich and really enjoyed it. Waitress was very personable and efficient"

"**UPDATE** Last week we took our friends, visiting from California, to the National Grill for the view from the deck. We warned them of our experience with the terrible food from last year (see my previous review below...gave it 2 stars). We were pleasantly surprised to receive an actual menu with many different options. Our server was pleasant, attentive and accommodating. Our food was well prepared and very good. What a complete turn around from last year! My husband and I are already planning to come back for lunch this week! As long as this establishment continues on this path, we will definitely become repeat customers. ** **PREVIOUS REVIEW** Unfortunately, this establishment has gone downhill in the past year, or so. My husband and I would frequently come here to sit on the deck and have a few drinks & appetizers or lunch. The view is absolutely spectacular! However, the menu is completely different and sorry to say, "sub par". In terms of food, it seems as if the focus has shifted from accommodating their golfing patrons as well as the public to "The Barn" for wedding receptions. Their previous menu, while not extensive, offered excellent fare, every time! Everything tasted freshly prepared and we were extremely happy with our choices. Currently, the food selections appear to be something out of the freezer, and/or deep fried. Needless to say, we are terribly disappointed."

"Arrived on a day that the Golf Course was hosting a Fundraiser and a Wedding. Enthralled with all of the different teams outfits and their high spirits. Especially excited to see the Wedding venue which was held at their beautiful Barn. Congratulations & Blessings to that couple! Thank you's to All the Staff, as they were able to manage each event with ease and finesse. Out on the veranda, enjoyed a delicious early meal, which consisted of Terriyaki Glazed Salmon, perfectly made Garlic Mashed Potatoes & Carrots. Menu has variety & flavour, a must to taste their other entrees. Savored my after-dinner beverage near the gardens, while listening to the birds flying from the wildflowers to the trees as their songs were carried by the approaching stormy winds. Carefully dodging all the golf carts going to and fro, there is plenty of parking. Numerous clean bathrooms. Handicap Accessible Accommodations. Meticulously manicured greens. Attempted some putting practice. Although unfamiliar with the sport, I had a ball. Chose the heaviest one and tried to feel what was best for the slope of the holes. May not have made many...ok any, but burned calories laughing & retrieving my ball. Gorgeous Golf Course and Event Venue. Don't forget to check out their Pro-Shop with hats, shirts & golf gear to purchase."
