  Been here twice over several years. This place frustrates me - has great potential in the location and building but underperforms for some reason. Disorganized staff. Mediocre food. A little attention to detail would make this place a **** easily.

  i have heard from friends that this place used to have the best food.
  
  I like the atmosphere, it's a bit of a drive, and the view isn't spectacular, but it feels like lake town/marina joint with out all of the nautical stuff everywhere.
  
  the food however was not so great. minimal effort was put in and it was luke warm when served. i think they could serve a pub style menu with some flare and do a lot better. the nachos were really good though.

  Finding someplace near Bloomington that is not all about the student life is hard.
  
  This is definely a bright spot on the top of a hill with a great view of a resivour.
  
  The food was very good, (try the fried pickels - and the burgers) and they have a good bar.
  
  Lots of fun, and a place that is really only known by the locals!

  Sick and tired of the lazy hippie landlubbers at Runcible Slit Your Wrists Spoon, we decided to find a real breakfast joint. What we found was nothing short of spectacular - the Scenic View Lodge overlooking Lake Monroe.
  
  Unexpectedly good service.
  
  High quality ingredients.
  
  And a beautiful view.
  
  Brunch entrées range from $7-$10.50. And with the NON-hippie-I-live-in-a-filthy-shitterhole-and- bring-my-lazy-habits-to-work waitstaff, Scenic View is a refreshing alternative to Runcible and well worth it.
