Lake City Taphouse

I’ll start with the positive. Great menu, live music. The garlic fries and the sweet potato fries are awesome. They do offer a gluten free bun which is wonderful. If you have Celiac, I wouldn’t trust that their isn’t cross contamination though. Reason for 2 stars? We went on a Saturday night at 7pm and the place was hoping. Not unusual for a weekend in Lake City. When we walked in, we were not greeted and had to wait, then find a seat on our own when someone leaves. They only had 2 servers that I could see. We got waters quickly but the rest was disaster. Ordered fries first, they were good. Asked for silverware, none clean yet. Got napkins. Ordered drinks- first one came. Second one took forever until we asked the other server and she brought it. Third one was ordered at the bar- after waiting a few minutes snd being ignored, we waited. Second time at the bar, finally got it. Ordered our food. Took forever, only to find out they forgot half our tables orders so they had to make the rest quick. Finally came and the fish was raw. Yes actually raw. The chicken on the salad wasn’t good. The sandwiches were good but one requested chips and got fries instead. Finally got refills on water. Asked for a 3rd time for silverware. None clean yet? Yeah- only forks were clean, hope you don’t need a spoon or knife. Finally one of us could eat while the others were done. Nothing was adjusted on our bill. People kept coming in only to be disappointed. One table actually cleared their dishes away and helped the server themselves. Second time there, first time was for lunch and was fine. Won’t be going back there on a weekend again. Lake City can do better.

Slow roasted pot roast grill cheese sandwich is to die for. It is so good. I cannot rave enough about it. Gluten free hamburger buns too. Wonderful, just wonderful.
