lake view restaurant. lakeview restaurant is on the lake in coventry connecticut. they offer italiano, seafood, steak, pizza, sandwiches & burgers. they have an outdoor deck overlooking the lake. they have a large bar, and big screen tv.
when we first arrived we were happy to be reunited with our favorite waiter, joey from coventry pizza, who we had not seen in 3 years. we sat in a booth overlooking the lake.
i got the rib eye steak sandwich topped with a delicious combination of sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms, and cheese. the steak fries were the way i like them; hot and crispy golden brown.
liz got the chicken broccoli alfredoservedover linguine. i sampled some, both the chicken and white sauce were very tasty. the portion was very generous, we took half of it home.
joey, our server, was very attentive & friendly. leo, the manager, thanked us as we were leaving and was very friendly with us. next time we try one of these appetizers; chicken wings, fried calamari, stuffed mushrooms, sweet potato fries, shrimp, smelts in a basket. then split a large antipasto salad, or the baked lasagna.
lakeview restaurant, review #2 we went back again to dine at the lakeview. they had a "fresh whole belly clams" sign out in front. of course that's what i ordered and i am happy to report that lakeview's clams are among the best i've ever tasted, and i've been eating clams for 50+ years.
leo, the manager, remembered us from the last time we were there. he stopped by my table to chit-chat but it was clear he was very busy with customers. the gigantic bar area was filled with a big private party (30+ people) having lots of fun along with their dinners.
