We went for fixed price $35 during Lake George Restaurant week on September 14th. This included a 3 course meal. Our salads were good and plentiful. The mussel appetizer was excellent. Fish and Chips entree was very good. Shrimp Scampi was very mild and needed more sauce and garlic. The pasta it was served on was overdone but the scrimp were very good. My strip steak was okay but it looked anemic, as if it was steamed instead of grilled. The baked potato could have been cooked more. We all enjoyed our dessert of either Lemon Merangue Pie or Apple Pie.

Waitress was very friendly and attentive. We didn’t know it was a BYOB, otherwise it was a very nice place to have dinner. We could have walked next-door to get a bottle of liquor, but decided not to. Presentation of food was just average but it was tasty. We would go back :)

We were very disappointed with this restaurant. Two of us ordered shrimp fajitas ( a special that night) that were unrecognizable. We had to take them apart to see that there were even shrimp in the taco shells. The shrimp was covered in something that tasted like meat sauce and the onions and peppers had been stewed in a tomato sauce. The sour cream and cheese listed on the menu did not arrive. The waitress did bring sour cream when asked, but the meal was terrible. I would avoid this restaurant.

The only thing I can say is that I hope the chef called in sick and the dishwasher was doing his/her best to fill in. The food was so bad that I thought cameras were going to pop out and tell us we were punked! As we looked around at other tables they were equally as puzzled and sometimes laughing at what they were served. Just one example was the steak sandwich special - it was an entire steak put inside a hamburger bun! I just wish I had a picture because it would have taken 3 buns to cover the steak! The bill was over $130 and that’s with no appetizers or alcoholic drinks - 4 meals and 4 sodas. I don’t ever write restaurant reviews but this was so over the top bad - I had no choice. The staff was nice though and I feel really bad leaving this review - but I just couldn’t believe it.

Coke was overall good. Small menu and no liquor license as of yet. Also the menu on their website is a little outdated. Food was good overall and location is great. Servers were very nice and attentive. Only complaint is we were there near closing and they were definitely rushing the cleaning of tables to close up. Overall I would recommend.

We enjoyed our first meal so much, we came back a second time on our vacation. It’s not inexpensive, but the Salmon in a Honey Dijon sauce was just delicious and perfectly cooked! Also the Cavatelli in a Vodka Sauce was also spectacular. What was very special about this restaurant was that they were able to accommodate my daughter’s multiple dietary restrictions with a customized fabulous meal. The service was personal and attentive especially for the kids. Skip the restaurants on the water where the food is mediocre and have a great meal here!

Very cute little spot. They currently are not selling beer/wine but you can bring your own. My husband and I had the specials (a mahi dish and a summer tortellini dish) and they both were a bit on the bitter side. There is no changing table in the bathroom. However the service was fantastic and they took extreme care of my children’s food allergies.

Unfortunately, we went for the pecan salmon and the Mac and cheese. When we got there, they said their menu had just changed, they didn’t have them, and there was nothing else that appealed. We left without eating. The staff was nice, but “didn’t know anything about open table” or the menu, and said they just got a new chef so have a new menu as of Tuesday. So if you are concerned about food choices or have a favourite on the menu, you may want to call to double check. The staff was nice, but I use open table to avoid that

The restaurant ambiance was nice. Didn’t realize they didn’t have a liquor license so couldn’t serve alcohol. We felt a bit smothered by the staff because we were one of the only parties there. Our waitress and the host kept coming to the table and asking the same questions. Food was ok, they were out of some items we asked for. We overheard the host telling the server that she asked us about dessert too quickly. Just a strange experience overall.

The restaurant was closed, locked, voice mail box full and not accepting messages. It was very disappointing because Open Table accepted our reservation and no one informed us that it is closed for the season. How unprofessional. It should be easy enough and requires a little bit of courtesy and common computer literacy to disable reservations.

Nice greeting by hostess and nice table! Cute location! Service started slow! We got No "hello, I'll be with you in a minute" from a waiter. Nothing! we waited & waited to meet our server! When we meet our server she was very nice! Friendly and knowledgable about the menu & the area! and so the evening was finally off and running! She mentioned they were down a chef and running a little slow. Ok, so We asked for a bread basket because we were starving ! and it came right out ! Shrimp cocktail and toasted ravioli with marinara dipping sauce came out soon after! Asked about drinks ( there is a bar ) and we received complementary wine since this new location has not received its liquor permit as yet! It was Excellent too! Our entrees followed our appetizer timely! The blackened swordfish was absolutely delicious! Mashed sweet potatoes were very nice side and perfectly cooked green and yellow sautéed squash was the veggie today. All Delicious. We also had a filet mignon also very good. Served a little more medium than medium rare but very tender and the mushroom gravy was wonderful! Too full for dessert but we will be back Congratulations ! Chef Justin ! This is a really nice room, great food, great location and nice staff! I would suggest someone bring water to the table asap even take a drink order and greet your customer! if it continues to run slowly bring breadsticks or crackers & dip or a bread basket to the table! People are just waiting too long to see a server. Another server would be great but I know it’s hard to get and keep staff these days.

The hostess and waitstaff were super friendly. The restaurant was bright but a little too open ( like a diner) and it was very loud. Need something to absorb the loud noise. And to offer more of an ambience that the menu alludes to. Maybe barriers to create more intimate sections? Plants and sound absorbers on ceiling?. The food was good, especially the calamari. Fish and chips was decent but small portion of fish. They didn't have their liquor license yet but said it was coming. For now you can byo wine. They graciously offered a complementary glass the service was good. Restaurant reminded me of something you would see in Montauk: fast paced, modern and bright. Just needs a little more ambience. Would go back for lunch or breakfast.
