Lake View Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Annabelle Shields
Open and comfortable atmosphere with fairly standard prices. Very attentive and friendly staff who provide quality service, food and drinks. The bar does not serve cocktails but they can make simple mixers upon request. The food and drinks were high quality, my only comment is that larger sauce portions for certain menu items such as the salmon and chicken schnitzel would be great.
4 Star Review by Katrina Auld
We weren't expecting much; being a Monday there were very few options but we had just got into town so decided to stop for dinner and we were pleasantly surprised. The meal was excellent, reasonably priced, fresh and well cooked, good service and great views. A nice little spot for a pot and Parma
3 Star Review by Edward Caravas
Food and drinks are affordable, quality of food was OK. I enjoyed the oysters. Staff were friendly and lovely to deal with. Curry and halloumi chips were very disappointing, felt like I was eating frozen halloumi chips. Curry needed more flavour, was rather bland. View is great to relax in front while eating a meal. Location is right in the centre of Merimbula.

Beef ragu with saffron linguine had neither beef nor saffron linguine but it did have an overwhelming smell and taste of liver. I'd be embarrassed to serve it to my dog. Kids bolognese was also inedible. Drinks were nice and views were great.
1 Star Review by Michael
It's one of those restaurants where you think why did I bother. Nothing on the website photos is actually on the menu. The chefs are really quite rude and verging on arrogant. There is a huge choice of places to dine in the area; so don't choose this one.

1 Star Review by karren stoneham
No atmosphere, uninviting, very small menu selection and the airconditioner is freezing. Summer night and you need jackets. Best view in town, so management needs to ask why it wasn't busy on NYE.

Went there for lunch, asked them if a table is available got told they are fully booked for dinner.. ok so you don't serve lunch? Tried to book a table for dinner then and fully booked.. and every night from then on I have tried booking a table for dinner and always fully booked. Must remember to book now for December 2023!

Beautiful view. Could do with some work on the customer service side of things. Food took an hour to be made and was very average. Med to well done steak was very well done. Would I recommend this place...mmm...just for the view.
