Lake Bonavista Community Reviews

The Lake House with more people vaccinated and restaurants finally open in the summer after the lockdown, we decided to eat here. We could only get a table on a weekday, weekends were all booked until the end of summer. This was our first time here, we arrived for dinner at around 7 pm and could not get a window table. If you want to get a window table, try to be there as early as you can specially if you are a group of more than four. The restaurant was quite busy and a little noisy. Tables were well spaced. We started by sharing a charcuterie board which was not elaborate but had great choices of salami, ham and pickles accompanied by bite-sized rye bread. For my entree I ordered the Peri peri marinated Haloumi cheese and it was absolutely delicious. The quinoa was so flavourful. My friends ordered the Duo of Alberta Lamb which tasted great as well. My friends also ordered the Pinot Noir as recommended by our server Darcy that went well with the lamb. Darcy was nothing short of a rockstar. He was so warm, friendly and very attentive. Overall the service was exceptional. We were full after the appetizer and entrée so for the dessert all of us shared a Sticky Toffee Pudding, which tasted very well. Some of us ordered coffee, I wish the coffee was a little more warm. Yes it is a bit pricey, but quality of food and service are top-notch. If I had one complaint - it would be that I could not get a table by the window and enjoy the gorgeous lake view.
