“My overall experience at this location was good. Our server was polite and checked on us accordingly. The place was clean along with the bathrooms. I found the food to be mediocre compared to some other locations I have visited. The worst thing was the broccoli... they must have burned the bottom layer because all I could taste was burnt food.“

“Food is always excellent and the service is wonderful! A huge thank you to Anna and everyone at the restaurant for helping to make our wedding day go so smoothly and special. The sunroom was beautifully set up for our ceremony and wedding reception. The antipasto appetizer platter was excellent and a big hit with all of my wedding guests as well as the dinner.“

“Hidden Gem Just Outside the Village – A Must-Visit! We thought we were just stopping in for a quick slice… and ended up with a full, unforgettable Italian meal! Just minutes from the hustle of downtown Lake George, Number 1 Pizza feels like stepping into someone’s home—if that someone happens to be an incredible Italian cook. The specials drew us in, and we’re so glad they did. Everything is homemade—from the rich, savory sauce to the perfectly seasoned meatballs. The lasagna was layered with love, and the manicotti, made with delicate crepes, was hands-down the best we’ve ever had. You can taste the care and tradition in every bite. The owners are genuinely welcoming, the atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious, and the food is the real star. This place isn’t just about pizza (though we hear that’s great too)—it’s a full-on Italian comfort food experience you won’t want to miss. If you’re in Lake George, make the short drive. We will be back!“
