    My wife and I had dinner here during our stay at Lizard Creek Lodge. The dinner was a great experience with fantastic views and ambience, well crafted drinks and delicious Chicken Parmesan main course. The only ‘negative’ was that we were given menus from which we decided what to order and then a waitress appeared removed those from the table and replaced them with *new* menus that had significant price increases ($7 per dish for our selection). This was done without any communication or explanation and did leave a bad taste in our mouths (so to speak). This is not how customers ought to be treated. Honestly if a mistake had been made, the restaurant ought to have valued the relationship with the customer above trying to get more money from them after a decision had been made based on the original menu provided.

    Being the Wapiti fest is on I thought the restaurant might be busy but there were only three other tables. The service was fine but not great. I order the Sable fish for 44 dollars and my friend had the Mussels. Hers was fabulous my piece of fish wasn’t enough to satisfy my cat. It was about 1/4 inch thick and 3 inches long. If it was 3 oz I’d be surprised. I was hungry and remained so even after finishing my entire meal. I voiced my concern to the waiter and they took 25% off the bill. They must have know it was not a proper portion serving. We were not offered dessert or coffee. I honestly have never left a restaurant hungry before. Would not return and am not happy with how they resolved the issue. Had the waiter checked in before we were half way through our meals I would have sent it back and got something else, like the Mussels.

    An excellent time because of the good food, and the impeccable service from Alex. Food was top level, the potatoes pave, were to die for. The amount of work put in speaks volumes for the talent. The rest was great too, but the potato made it
