The Ridge At Manitou - MCKELLAR

Good was awful and they don’t have a liquor license.

Celebrating my brothers-in-law’s 60th Birthday with golf and dinner with our wives. We were very disappointed to discover after we arrived that the course and restaurant no longer had a liquor license. None of us are big drinkers but we were planning on celebrating the birthday with at least a bottle of wine. Would have been good to know about them no longer having a liquor license prior to booking.

Excellent ambiance with a lovely view of the lake. The brisket sandwich was generously filled with soft well smoked meat. This, together with excellent service made for a very good experience.

3 of 4 of our meals were excellent. My steak was grissly and tough even though medium and pink. I ate a portion of it, thinking it would get better. Lots of cut off fat left on the plate. I was offered free dessert, even though we would not have ordered dessert. Server forgot an order of soup and tea and we just cancelled them in the end. She seemed very distracted and not very concerned about her errors. We tipped nonetheless. Our previous 3 dinners (with previous owners/chef) were excellent. We were disappointed with our experience this time. We would still recommend for the view.
