[Descant]

Saturday, May 22, we three had dinner outdoors at Lyons Den. Reservations were for 5:30, and they were already full. People were all having a good time and it took a few minutes before our table was ready, disinfected, etc. It was very windy on the lake, but Glendale is protected, so no problem that way. Just in case, they had a supply of blankets ready. Roped off area in front of the building for tables, mostly groups of 4. Drinks were served outside and service was prompt as always. Full menu with some specials. We had surf n turf (prime rib and stuffed shrimp), Salmon, and a boneless duck. All excellent. Cheesecake to go for dessert. Team service kept things moving, but no pressure. They do a great job of scheduling reservations so people move in and out at a pace that matches the workload in the kitchen. It seemed like we all had not been out for awhile and wanted to linger, but people were good about finishing up so the next group could be seated. Two rounds of drinks, shared appetizer, about $150 before tip and about 1.5 hours.. They were really well prepared for everything. BTW, we made our reservation on Wednesday for Saturday. Bravo! Lyons Den.
