Bayview Grill - Fairfield Bay

As for the ribeye, it was neither seasoned nor marinated and seemed to have been cooked on a flat top, lacking any grill marks or browning. Even after adding a generous amount of salt and pepper, it still lacked flavor. We drove quite a distance to try this restaurant for the first time and were left feeling disappointed. We had iced tea and no appetizers, and our bill came to $85. Unless the food improves, we probably won’t be returning, although the staff was outstanding and the restaurant itself is beautiful. Please consider enhancing the quality of the food. Steaks should ideally be grilled on a char grill and at the very least seasoned with salt. A marinade would really elevate the dish. Bland, tasteless, and expensive food is simply not acceptable.

I dined there once with a friend. The coconut shrimp was excellent, while the shrimp and roasted tomato linguine was just okay. The margarita left a lot to be desired, but the whiskey was high quality. Prices were a bit higher than average for the area, but the food justified the cost. However, the drinks felt overpriced. I recommend going for the food and skipping the drinks.

The food was absolutely fantastic! The service was excellent, and the restaurant itself is a beautifully charming spot within the hotel.
