appetizer front Lakeside hit a grand slam with the crab cake, seared<br />

Ahi tuna and jumbo shrimp. The crab cakes are phenomenal, the<br />

seared Ahi tuna is velvety and delicious and the jumbo gulf shrimp<br />

are big, meaty perfectly served hunks of happiness.<br />

Like the end of a well-planned meal, this review has also<br />

saved room for dessert. Lakeside gets high marks with great<br />

location, ambiance, menu, service, food flavor and presentation…<br />

but if you are into desserts, what awaits you at Lakeside is beyond<br />

expectation. The dessert menu is not large, but the impeccable line<br />

up of desserts are so beautifully presented and so well prepared<br />

that you feel a little guilty eating them. If you are a chocoholic, the<br />

chocolate lava cake will take you to that special place. The New<br />

York style cheesecake with fresh berry coulis is so rich and creamy<br />

that your brain can’t manage the flavor explosion that is unfolding.<br />

Pie lovers, the key lime pie with all its toasted meringue goodness<br />

is a heavenly and the last item, the white chocolate croissant<br />

bread pudding smothered<br />

in warm bourbon caramel is<br />

inexplicable. The desserts at<br />

Lakeside are a must.<br />

Great steaks, chops,<br />

poultry, seafood, soups,<br />

salads, appetizers and desserts, Lakeside has it all. Lakeside is a<br />

perfect culinary spot for life’s celebratory moments but it is also a<br />

great regular place to dine. The experience leans toward luxury,<br />

but the prices are surprisingly affordable. Lakeside is versatile in<br />

what it has to offer and fills a niche in the area for fine dining. If<br />

you have guests in town this is a great spot to go and get the VIP<br />

treatment. The next time you are looking for a place to reward your<br />

taste buds take a trip to Lakeside Restaurant and Bar and let Heath<br />

and his talented team share their passion for culinary excellence<br />

with you.<br />
