"We are big fans of dining out, so we decided to sample some of their most popular dishes: the Blackened Fish Tacos, Barramundi Rodrigo, and Surf Turf. The portion of steak in the Surf Turf is small, but it’s still quite satisfying. Our wonderful server, Sara, was incredibly helpful as we navigated the menu and learned about the specials. (Mallards, these ladies deserve a raise!) If you visit this restaurant, it’s definitely worth it. It’s located near the lake, making it a great spot for some fun afterwards. I hope you enjoy the seafood experience as much as my husband and I did!"

The Nashville hot chicken was juicy and tender, but not exactly spicy. I guess it had spice, but it was a polite spice, not bold at all. The fries were good! My wife ordered a salad but didn't care for it the spinach was drowning in a pool of dressing.

Went to the Forest Lake location this evening for our anniversary dinner. This was our first time there. The service was very good; welcoming, professional, prompt attentive. I had salmon and my husband had surf and turf. Both were excellent. We will definitely be back.

Had lots of fun for my cousin's birthday dinner! Drinks were amazing! So was the bartender! Waitresses were also very good checking in to ask us if we needed everything and how our meals were. Appetizers were phenomenal! Dinner was fantastic, very well prepared and exactly what is stated on the menu. Bathrooms were also very cleanly and nice. View menu

Today, June 26, 2022, my family and I visited this restaurant for the first time to celebrate my birthday, and I have to say that everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The service was also impressive and very prompt. Our server, Erik, was outstanding—definitely the best server we've ever had at a restaurant. We can't wait to come back every day!

Thank you for making our date night special! I successfully surprised my wife with a kid-free evening, and we returned to Mallards. We absolutely love the food here, and the service is consistently excellent—always friendly and attentive, just like our first visit. Our meals arrived hot and were fantastic. The Jambalaya was delicious, as were the Lettuce Wraps. We'll definitely be back soon! Thanks again!

"I arrived at 3:15 PM on a Wednesday, and noticed the sign on the door advertised food and drink specials from Tuesday to Thursday, 3-6 PM. This will be relevant later. It was a pleasant 71 degrees and sunny outside. It was just me and my baby, and since all the patio tables were still set up, I asked if we could sit outside. My waitress didn't seem too excited about it, but she reluctantly agreed. Honestly, I was trying to be considerate since I had a baby who can be a bit noisy and messy, so I figured being outside would be easier for everyone. Before placing my order, I inquired about the food and drink specials and was told, "Sorry, there are no specials today," even though the sign clearly advertised them. Okay... Before ordering anything for myself, I requested some buns with cinnamon butter for my baby, thinking that would keep her occupied and be a quick and easy option. When my waitress returned with water, I ordered a drink and my meal. Since my dish included the same type of buns, I asked if I could just have the ones that came with my meal instead of ordering an extra serving. Both the side order and meal description stated "buns," not "bun." I received my drink, a jalapeño margarita, which was excellent—10/10! However, I still hadn't gotten the buns that I had requested 10 minutes ago. My food and the buns finally arrived about 5 minutes later. The waitress told me the kitchen made both orders of buns because they hadn't received the message, but there were only three buns?! I found that odd, as two orders should yield more than three. Now, on to the food: I had the loaded mac and cheese, which was delicious—9/10. It was creamy and flavorful, with nice sundried tomatoes, though the sauce could’ve been a bit thicker. I also noticed that in pictures of the pasta dishes, there was usually a grilled croissant or bread served alongside. Mine did not come with any. Additionally, the buns were disappointing—hard and barely warmed. Neither my baby nor I could eat them. Just then, it started to rain—such bad timing! I swear there was no rain in the forecast when I chose to sit outside. What began as a light sprinkle quickly turned into heavy raindrops. I attempted to open the canopy, but there was no pin to hold it up, so I was left standing there, holding the awning out to cover both my baby and the food for about three minutes before someone finally came to help me; a different waitress who helped us move inside. I apologized profusely, as I have worked in the restaurant industry and do my best not to create rude situations like that. Before I could fully settle in, my original waitress came over with my bill and informed me I was her last table. That was fine, so I paid quickly to allow her to leave. I did notice I was charged for the buns, but it was only $2, so I didn't raise an issue. Then I spotted a large sign by the bar showcasing the day's specials that my waitress clearly didn't know about. I definitely would have ordered the pumpkin martini! Considering the issues with the buns and the lack of awareness about the specials, I would rate my experience at about 3.5 stars. However, the food and drinks were good enough to warrant four stars overall. The staff was generally friendly, and while the food was enjoyable, I'm not sure I'd return given the overall experience.
