Like many long time summer residents - Harts was always on our list - a couple times a summer. I can recall going there with the entire family back in the 70's and 80's! When I was fortunate enough to buy my own place on the lake - I introduced my wife and her fmaily to the experience in the 90's. Most recently - last summer - my family - about 10 of us ventured over to Harts. We were more than disappointed with the service and the portions, and frankly the experience left a bad taste in our mouths. We won't go back.
Specifically - we found the attitude of the hosts - arrogant. A "well if you don't like it leave" - not service oriented and certainly not friendly. We witnessed the negative interactions, not just with my party of 10, but with three other families as well. Perhaps she was havign a bad day - but in truth - in this industry of service - one bad day can ruin you.
There is no reason to go to Harts - when there are so many great restaurants in the region - and some even serve - TURKEY

!!
We wont go back, and after having made trips to the lake JUST TO GO TO HARTS since 1970 - that is SAD....sad indeed.
