We’ve been here several times over more than a decade. Some things have changed and some have not. Rarely do we ever see other African American families in this clubhouse. This has been consistent since we started visiting this development in 2004. There’s definitely a racial element that’s felt (lingering) at the clubhouse and in this development period. There’s not much diversity represented here, but this development is a beautiful place. Also, sad to say our service at the clubhouse is almost always mediocre at best. We wait longer than others for food, we are often seated in arrangements that are not the best and we are often looked at as if we are specimen. We often get the “rookie” waiters and waitresses in spite of the fact that we TIP like super above average. We are DC bred and we value our restaurant service workers. I still gave this place four stars because of where it’s located, the prices, portions and quality of food. The prices are extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. We love ordering the nacho for an appetizer. It’s the size of a meal for three! The alcohol beverages give you the umph that you need after a long day. The inside or outside dining options are a real plus too.
So glad we visited this magical clubhouse restaurant tonight! Hannah, our waitress, was so kind & helpful when I disclosed to her my health situation and asked for help in picking a food item that I can easily eat. I'm so happy with the Ahi Tuna appetizer that she recommended for me. It was soft and delicious enough for me to eat and my husband enjoyed his mozzarella appetizer. We chose to sit outdoors where the ambience was romantic. The outdoor deck overlooking the lake was lit up and music floated in the air lending to the magic of the place. We will definitely be visiting this restaurant again and bring our family here as well next time. Perfect place for romantic dates. I'm so glad we went to this restaurant overlooking the lake tonight because after my having been so sick for so many months this was the exact experience we needed to lift our spirits up. Good food, friendly and helpful waitress and good vibe! UPDATE 07-10-2021 Once again we had an amazing evening at this restaurant by the lake. Tonight they had live music and plenty of people enjoying the outdoor seating. Our waitress, Zoey, was adorable and attentive. Husband and I ordered Parmesan Encrusted Red Snapper, side of shrimp, mashed potatoes with gravy, and vegetable medley. All items were cooked to perfection and very flavorful. The mashed potatoes were bursting with flavor the minute I grabbed a bite. I have no idea what they put in their potatoes but they taste amazing. The shrimp was flavorful and not dry at all. Good sized portions. The live music band was impressive surprise. The evening became even more magical for us when the manager lit the fire pit at our table. Good food, good music, beautiful view. What more can we ask for? Highly recommend this restaurant.
The outdoor deck has a panoramic view of the lake. You can't go wrong with the ahi tuna on salad, quesadillas or prime rib. There's a special place in my heart for the soft pretzel appetizer and the fruity dessert. The waitresses rock, and the manager is attentive. 5 stars.
A throw back to the elegance out dining out. White table cloths, expansive windows overlooking the lake and grounds. Friendly staff and guests who truly appreciate the atmosphere this clubhouse offers.
Visited my parents here for the first time since they moved to VA. The clubhouse had breathtaking views of the lake paired with delicious food and top notch service. I would highly HIGHLY recommend them!
