The view of Valcour Island is amazing, I loved it so much I bought a boat and docked it right there. Dana grew up in a Lobstering family so he sure does know his seafood, and Gary makes some of the best drinks around. I eat and drink there frequently. Favorite meal is between the Lobster Pie, the Sea Bake and the Baked Stuffed Sole. Favorite specialty drinks are Mikes Maple Delight and the Rusty Anchor. For a lighter meal the sandwich menu is very good also (best Philly Cheese Steak around)

We went here for a co-worker's birthday dinner. The place was empty when we arrived, drinks were slow, service was slow. One person ordered a dirty martini, waitress left without asking gin/vodka. When she finally returned it was to ask gin/vodka and then it was still 10 minutes before that arrived. Appetizers came about 1.5 hours later, they were sub-par, overly laden with sauce. Water wasn't refilled until asked. When the salads arrived much later, to the point where we forgot about the salads and thought it was actually even too late for the food to arrive, the salads were small. The cucumbers were wrinkled and tomatoes unripe. Dinner was significantly later than that and the stuffed sole was salty and dry, crab cakes were hockey pucks and very small, steaks over done, scallops rubbery and we had to ask for water refills again and rolls. When the bill arrived without asking if we would like the check split we simply divided it evenly and handed over our cards and 25 minutes later we were informed that the machine was broken and there was no atm and a manager would arrive at some point to see if the problem could be fixed. No compensations, no apology. The icing on the cake was that we had to clear our own plates from appetizers. No apologies were forthcoming, one waitress and one bartender were on yet there were no explanations or even an acknowledgement of the delay. This may have been the worst dinner I have ever had. At this point commenting on the restaurant's decor may seem harsh and catty, yet it needs to be mentioned. The view is stunning to look out the window. You could sit at a hot dog shack and in fact can do that and have the same view and better food and service. It is situated right on the lake adjacent to a marina. Wall paper is peeling, it smells like mildew, the lights weren't turned on until it was actually too dark to see, there was no music in the background, it was hot, we opened the windows without asking since there was pretty much no service. Please do not go here. Please also realize that this same owner oversees Cafe Mooney Bay as well as Dana's Downtown. I expect to never return as well as to never frequent these other establishments.

I only wanted to stop in for a drink, but the view of the island was incredible. While we where having our drinks we noticed a rainbow going from one endof the island to the other and we had front row seats! We decided to order an appetizer (try the salmon portabella, you won't regret it). Our app was so good we ended up staying for dinner. All things told, what started out a quick drink turned into dinner, drinks, and a great time hanging out with all the new friends we made at the bar. This place is a hidden local gem!
