Best

Best place to pull up in the boat, hop out and order a burger. I have been eating there for the last 10 years, and have never been disappointed! Kids can run around, be loud, no...

Worst

I have been going there since 1987 and the Place lookss better than ever but the service Staff and the cook are not what I was used too. Hire back the cook... the food sucked......

Sadly, it's closed 3/28/2010

Just went to their website & it says that, as of Dec '09 they're CLOSED!? :( So sad to see a fun family restaurant close. Hope someone will open it back up & continue the tradition! :) more

Horrible Place 4/10/2009

We'd just completed our Saturday run in the nearby hills and thought it'd be nice to grab a burger as a treat. We arrived at the place, walked in drinking our water bottles. Reasonable right? Owner/Manager or whatever sees this and proceeds to SHOUT LOUDLY at us, ""YOU PEOPLE HAVE THE NERVE TO COME IN HERE WITH WATER...."" I forget the rest of his tirade but basically he berates us as we were about to order about bringing in water. I've never been so angry, and really wanted to say something but calmer heads prevailed and we just left, vowing never to come back. Forget the racial undertone of the tirade but I can't imagine anyone doing this to a patron. It's not like we came in with a bag of food and had the intention of not ordering and sitting a there. It baffles me to this day. A clear message to the ""YOU PEOPLE"" out there, that we are not welcomed there! Cons: Management/Owners more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! 6/16/2008

I do NOT recommend this place!!!\r Was camping nearby and ate here 3 times during a 4 day period. They got my order wrong 2 of the 3 times! \r The managers/owners are incredibly RUDE!!! I was in total disbelief of their ""don't give a damn"" attitude. In fact, he specifically said the he didn't care of my group ever returned again! Now mind you, I've been going there on and off for approx. 25 years! Not a good representation to keep long-standing customers!!!\r You'd be SO much better off bringing a picnic lunch and going to Emma Long Park down the road! more

I love this place.... 8/15/2003

I have eaten here so many times, my BF & I actually CRAVE the BORDER BURGER (I add bacon, too!). The actually cook their patties on a wood-burning grill, and the flavor really comes through. I have only once had a bad experience: I think someone made a mistake, but I won't hold it against them! The ambiance is great if you want something absolutely laid-back. Stumble in wearing your swimsuit and flip-flops, drink really ice cold beer, watch the sunset listening to live music with a view of the lake and cool breezes blowing in on you. Great drive, too with a view of the city and rolling hills. This place is a secret! Pros: swim-suit friendly, ice cold beer, the Border Burger Cons: bathrooms, boat-envy more

Tasty 4/29/2003

Decent food. Great atmosphere. No... unbelievable atmosphere. A good value for grease and fat. We all need a little of that now and then. Pros: fries, atmosphere, value Cons: fat, grease more

Boat up or Drive Up 8/9/2002

This casual restaurant off 620 near City Park is the perfect Saturday afternoon burger spot. The burgers are made to order and inexpensive. Boat up to their dock or face the hunt for a parking space. The live music is a plus! Pros: Good food, Cheap, Live Music Cons: Small Parking Lot more

No shoes, No shirt, no problem 8/8/2002

Best place to pull up in the boat, hop out and order a burger. I have been eating there for the last 10 years, and have never been disappointed! Kids can run around, be loud, nobody cares. The prices are as great as the food, which by the way, you get plenty of! A wonderful lakeside tradition. more

  • Ok food but nice game room and playground for the kids. The fried okra is good and they have a decent kids menu. Although the servers...
