Great view, fresh air. I can't review the food in the restos, cause we only ordered snack (kue apang) and tea. Overall satisfactory, but need to improve toilet cleanliness, provide paper towell and liquid soap for washing hands. Those are not available.

The scenery is beautiful and the air is quite cold, but that's it, nothing else to offer. The entry ticket is 30k and you get free coffee or tea, the resto is big and has a lot of space, but the food tastes bland, the service is slow, the price is a little bit high but still understandable. Usually crowded on the weekend. It has so much potential and can be improved.

This place is a must-visit when you're in North Sulawesi. The view is amazing, the foods are great for me, it's clean, easy to park, and the prices are affordable for a place like this. You don’t have to stay overnight to enjoy it either. I visited here on Friday around 11 am, the entrance fee is 30,000 IDR per person (parking not included), and you get a free drink with your ticket—tea, coffee, or either one with condensed milk. No outside food or drinks. They've got plenty of good stuff here—plus it helps support the awesome crew who make this place so great

It's a nice little restaurant located right by the lake. The location and view are great. The quality of the food is just mediocre, but you're not here for gourmet food anyway, so it's understandable. The menu is somewhat limited during weekday lunch, but it's not crowded so it's really nice. On weekends the food options are more expansive but it's also a lot more crowded. You get a better view of the lake during daytime but at nighttime you have nice outdoor lights, so it's your choice what you prefer.

Nice open environment - better wear some clothing layers, though, because it's cold here. Had the free teh that came with the entrance ticket to Danau Linow. Was nice, but bring your own sweeteners - they only have sugar. Better to come here when it's not raining, so you can see the colourer lake and take pictures.
