Sawyer's

[Happy Gourmand]

Had a great lunch at Sawyer's a couple weeks ago. Everything was cooked perfectly. We didn't find the prices out of line with other places around the lake.
A very nice touch was the young folks they have roaming the dining room, offering to pick up your order and clean the table off when you're done. They didn't "hang" around fishing for a tip either.
We've never had a bad meal there, and, as usual, the place was packed. Even so, service was quick and efficient.

I would just like to add that during my 14 years living here I never had anything but good things to say about Sawyer's. They always served excellent fresh foods and ice cream, I was never afraid to recommend them to Family and Friends and none of them ever had any disappointment as well. Some still talk to me by phone and rave about Sawyer's.

Family members are friends of Sawyers' owners, and mentioned this thread to them. The owners said, "We hear of this from time to time".

Yesterday my family reported back, that Sawyers had an employee directing traffic!

The new owner of Sawyers did extensive cleaning and remodeling, and updated the restaurant throughout. They have added digital menu boards and now take credit cards, which the prior owners did not. We have found the food to be better than ever, and they have had to expand the front of the place to be able to produce more ice cream to meet demand. Yes, some items are a little pricey, but we have always enjoyed ourselves there. For a while this past summer they were running a special fried oysters plate with fries and slaw for a ridiculously low price. We are only sorry that they did not stay open longer this past season.

Each summer I make it a point to go there, and this summer, the ice cream was just plain rancid tasting. I haven't tried any of their food items, but my wife and I were just shocked at how terrible it was. Hopefully it was a bad batch or something, but I am willing to give it another shot next season.
