Best KPortal Reviews

It was newly renovated and looking great! Our server was pretty inexperienced, tho. Forgot a few things, ordered mozzarella sticks, but got cheese curds. Ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. Chicken was not grilled...looked like it had been thrown in the deep fryer instead. We didn't complain, but hopefully, things will improve. Would like to try again.
The service was terrible, took forever to get our drinks. If I wanted a glass of coke I'd have asked for one, I wanted jack Daniels and coke. My fiance ordered a wrap without tomatoes or cheese. The no cheese was the important part since she's lactose intolerant. She was served a wrap with both cheese and tomato on it. We sent the wrap back stating we needed it with no cheese, tomato, especially the no cheese part because she can't have dairy. About the time the rest of us were done eating, another wrap with no tomato but still had cheese on it was brought to us. Meanwhile, we were all waiting for our drinks to be refilled the whole time. If it would have been busy, might cut them some slack but it wasn't busy there was no reason other than not caring about the customers health that this mistake was made. I used to have a vacation trailer across the street from here and have been coming to this bar every now and then for over a decade and will never be back.
Watched a server braid her hair over the salad bar in front of the mirrors. This went on for 5 minutes. Yuck. Food was horrendous. Burnt bun, greasy cold fries and the beer was stale.
Beautiful view of lake Minnewaska from the patio or dining area. Nice option to boat to if you're on the lake and want to tie your boat up to their dock and grab some food and a cold drink!
Dining party of two: had excellent steak special with baked potato, and a seafood platter with grilled walleye, grilled shrimp, and scallops (with baked potato). Each dinner comes with trip to salad bar. Grilled fish was very tasty, shrimp and scallops also well-prepared. Salad bar was extensive, but a bit picked over by the time we arrived (7pm). Service was very attentive, but one server was not really able to keep up with taking care of customers and make sure salad bar stays filled. Menu says there is a reasonable split charge, so will return again to try the seafood platter again split between two people.
I ordered a wrap with no cheese and tomatoes and I clearly specified no cheese. My meal comes back with no tomatoes but still with cheese. I am allergic to dairy and this experience was not what I wanted to deal with.
Boated to the restaurant, dock was a little high but we managed. Had salad bar with added chicken breast, which was delicious. Others in party had burgers, tots, and drinks which they enjoyed. Atmosphere was happy & upbeat. Staff was super friendly and attentive. Would definitely go back! Perfect little bar stop for Saturday mid-day boating.
Awesome place to go to grab a bite to eat and a few drinks. The place is getting a face lift inside and it is looking great so far
