> Me and my cousins are chefs building a restaurant in south Korea. We are currently working on e interior of the place, where we have tried to mimic an old fashioned classical design, to comfort our customers and making them feel cozy, while enjoying the beautiful river view with the fresh nature surroundings. Try picturing a big three story cabinwood house infront of a lake surrounded by gorgeous looking trees and flowers, served with the best steak and lobster and even pasta as a course meal while ending with a delicious dessert or I famous cup of joe(coffee). but the main problem we have is thinking of a good name for the restaurant.we have some few names but I would like some opinions on other peoples perspectives and ideas on the name for our restaurant.  
> Original name was called:West Lake Cafe
> 
> Other name we have thought of:
> 
> - The riverbank view
> - The Cabinwood Steakhouse
> - Natures view
> - West Lake View
> - Woodys leaf
> - Fresh Air or The Fresh Breeze
> - Foxy’s Cabin  
> Please help us look for more names and ideas. Thank you -J

How about Fresh Air Steakhouse?

Thank you all, please keep it coming I would love the name to be in English and short but catchy so that Koreans who do not speak English very well will understand and know how to pronounce it.

In that case, you probably want something like Lake House or Lake View.
