The Lake Chalet Seafood Bar & Grill

We went there for a lunch, party for 7, celebrating the wedding of my sister in law. The food was great and the atmosphere was great, but the most important part there was a issue and my mother in law was very disappointed, but they really make it happen, they were very good solving the issue and all the family was very happy. For me that kind of things matters more. 100% recommended

I ordered the SESAME SEARED AHI BOWL, and it was below average. The tuna was overcooked, everything in the salad was okay. I told my server about the tuna and he said "I'll let the kitchen know", and that was the last time I saw my server. Another server brought me the check. Beer was good, though, although they didn't have the one I would have wanted to try, even though they make their own beers per the waiter. I'll be coming back to Oakland next month, but I will definitely not be going back to this bar and grill.

We came on a Saturday morning and immediately knew something was off. The host stand was unattended. A man waiting there told us he’d been rudely instructed to stand there and had already been waiting 20–30 minutes with his child…without anyone returning. He finally gave up, took his kid, looked at us and said, “Good luck,” before leaving. We waited another five minutes. Still no host. A server eventually noticed us and told us we could go inside, so we walked toward the back of the restaurant, only to find two occupied tables total. That’s it. We asked the bartender if the restaurant was even open. He said yes. So let’s recap: the restaurant is “open,” staffed with 10+ employees, nearly empty, and yet guests are being left to stand at the host stand for half an hour? Then things went from incompetent to hostile. A staff member (apparently the host) aggressively confronted us with, “Why are you here? Who told you to come in?” despite us clearly explaining that a server had directed us inside. She forced us to walk all the way back to the host stand, dismissed our explanation, and claimed there was a party ahead of us. When we pointed out that the party had already left after waiting 30 minutes, she flatly said, “No, he didn’t.” (He did. We watched him leave.) She was slamming things, speaking to us with under her breath comments and just extremely rude for no reason. She then took a phone call, snapped “All of this is on the website,” and hung up mid-sentence before smugly escorting us back to the exact same table we were already standing at, obviously this is all about a power trip. At that point, I told our server we would only stay if we never had to interact with that woman again. The food? Fine. Not memorable. Certainly not worth $209 for breakfast paired with open hostility, chaos, and visible disdain for guests. The entire operation felt like staff who mentally quit months ago but still show up to clock in. Two tables. At least 10 employees. Endless confusion. Open resentment toward customers. Save yourself the money and the attitude. We won’t be back.

Great service and great atmosphere. That's why I gave 4 stars. Lovely seating everyone was nice . The food was pretty average. I enjoyed the appetizer the best calamari was fresh and fried just right. I order a dish without fish and the cook decided to replace it with another fish. Can't hurt him for trying however the fish would have nearly killed me 😆. The manager was ultra nice about it. Kevin was his name, great way to make up for the mix up . We left smiling and happy The hamburger that replaced the fish item was a good size and alot of toppings. I'd come back because everyone was so kind.

Visited Lake Chalet last night and was extremely disappointed. It started when I was served an Aperol Spritz that was made incorrectly, very unbalanced and flat-tasting. I sent it back and requested a lavender lemon drop instead, which was just okay. We ordered the Brussels sprouts next, which ended up being the highlight of the entire meal—they were very good. Unfortunately, things went downhill again when our mains arrived. Both the roasted garlic butter crab and the ribeye steak came out cold to the touch and severely under-seasoned. Overall, it was a terrible experience, and I’m extremely upset that I wasted my money here.
