21 Lake Restaurant and Bar — Restaurant in Danbury

My wife and I came here for my birthday dinner last night. We have always wanted to try this restaurant since the reviews were really good. unfortunately it was very disappointing. We started with the pretzels appetizer with the cheese sauce. The pretzels were really good but the porter cheese sauce was clumpy, like a consistency of cottage cheese and did not taste good at all. I also ordered a cocktail that didn't come until after the appetizer came out (cocktail tasted great).

I had the clam po boy which was good but I couldn't say the same for my wife's gnocchi. She ate two pieces of gnocchi and couldn't take another bite. I also tried one and did not like it at all.

My wife took my side plate of onion rings and half of my sandwich and left her meal untouched besides the 3 pieces we tried. We are not the complaining type but I figured the waitress would ask why we didn't eat the gnocchi or want it to go, but when we said we didn't want it to go she just said alright and walked away. Never asked how anything was, dropped off the food and came back when we were done eating.

He also took the time to answer a few of my questions about the food menu, which I really appreciated. The fried calamari was fantastic! The atmosphere was calm and relaxing—perfect after the long ride we had. I was also impressed by how extremely clean the establishment was. I highly recommend...
