Excellent restaurant. Food was excellent, and the service was top notch. Had a wonderful dinner and enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant very much. Prices were a little high, but not surprising considering the quality of the food , the premises and the overall experience.

Wonderful dining experience with a friend. Excellent service, very good food, pleasing atmosphere, pricey but to be expected. Food portions are small but substantive especially for and evening meal. Wine recommendations by waitress excellent. Nice follow up by staff after dinner with pertinent questions to address any concerns or complaints. The Mirror Lake Inn is truly a lovely place to stay. The staff throughout the complex are all eager to please and address any issues that may pop up in a most courteous and professional manner. The owners, management and general staff do an excellent job at providing a very friendly family like atmosphere. Thank you for another memorable stay.

Always a treat to dine at The View. Exceptional service without being at all pretentious in a quiet, elegant setting. Fantastic food. We’re always impressed by the chef’s choices and how he or she combines flavors. My husband proposed there, and we have celebrated two anniversaries. The View always makes celebrations festive—we received a framed photo of the evening, as well as a special dessert.

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner and our server Katie B could not make it anymore special! The service was a 10/10 and the food was delicious. They even gave us a few complimentary items to try throughout our dinner and everything was fantastic. The atmosphere is very romantic and elegant and the view of the lake is incredible! They even took a photo of my boyfriend and I and made us the cutest souvenir. I would 100% recommend coming back!!

The service was excellent as well as the ambiance, the appetizers and soup were amazing, my prime beef filet was outstanding but my spouses pork and spaetzle was disappointing. The staff is friendly and could not do enough for you. I would for sure go back.
