We went to Lazy Dog after a careful scrutiny of the place and the reviews @ Trip advisor. I must admit, the place looks very serene and has a good setting specially outdoors.

The food was okay and nothing to die for. We wanted to try something different other than drifters and this seemed like the next best thing. The rates are unbeatable and so is the service but food could be better. More

If you want nothing more than the sound of the gushing river and a cold one with your friends and/or loved one then I recommend the outside seating by the bar on the rocking chair. it's like time stands still and the noise of the busy city roads you came from dissapear... Will try more from the menu next time... More
