The wings were perfection 🤩 and the pizza was delicious!! Can't wait to try their calzones! Great place! Absolutely recommend!“

“I come in nearly every night for a Large Garden Salad, green leafy lettuce, cherry tomatoes, green peppers, onions, and a hard boiled egg, always fresh produce, Sometimes I have the Chef Salad, the store is clean and the staff are so friendly, they have delicious desserts too, but I’m trying to loose weight and Empire Pizza 🍕 has been my go to for a great salad, the menu is large and I wouldn’t mine ordering chicken wings some time, Thank you Empire Pizza 🍕“

The host who took our order was as well; salads were nice and fresh, house made bread, and very nice sized tasty entrees. We will definitely be back to dine in!“

“We have never had a bad meal at Massie’s, everything is ALWAYS delicious. The specials are always changing and look drool worthy! 5 ⭐️s across the board. We went out for our daughter’s 9th birthday dinner here (her pick!) & everything was delicious. Kids meals came out first and fast as we wanted. Our waitress was so attentive and checked in often even though she was busy! Great service, great food!“

“I have only dined at Rocco’s but one time, we didn’t have a reservation and they were able to seat the three of us which was very accommodating. It was a busy busy time since there was a game at the Civic Center across the street and every place was packed. The food was outstanding and I would recommend Rocco’s.“

“I see this place an apology for NOT finding out sooner what I found out today! Excellent pizza and big beautiful perfect wings. My wife grew up in GF on Ridge St. and remembers Oma's and told me the story leading up to Mia...its weird we never connected with Mia! Today she and her Mom orders pizza and wings. Of course they ate like 1 slice and 2 wings so she called me and said got Mia's for you, you can't believe the crust and the wings are giant! She was not kidding. WOW - and I had just seen a reel on social of some dude going Portnoy at Mia and gave it a paltry 6.8...bollocks, I give them a still warm (wife said dont reheat the pizza for the original taste) - I give it a 9.9 combo wings and cheese pizza!!! Please prepare to hear from me more Mia. Doug Haight.“

“Best place in town and will go above and beyond for customers!“

“I lost hope in finding a place with actual GOOD penne alla vodka until we tried Stumpys last week. I thought I could only get quality penne alla vodka when we visit family in Long Island but Stumpys impressed me so much, it’s probably the best I’ve ever had!! Pizza was also great! 😍 We finally found our new go to pizza place!“

“Really really great bruschetta, everything tasted fresh. Vodka sauce was so good, we ordered the penne 2 days in a row on vacation. They also sell Lion Farm Cookies at the checkout and those s’mores cookies were out of this world! The staff were all very friendly also. Will definitely be a regular stop on our yearly trip to town.“

“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!“

“Best restaurant in Lake George. Food is amazing!! Fresh ingredients.10 out of 10! You not only get a phenomenal meal at Mario's, but you get an experience...very romantic atmosphere. We love it here and will be coming back for years to come. Very special place.“

“Food was hot & delicious! Heather was an exceptional server. She was upbeat, friendly & knowledgeable. It was a wonderful experience. I had chicken parmigiana and the fresh and crisp endless salad. My husband had the 🆕 entree along with the salad. It was a little spicy and he chose the chicken. The breadsticks were warm and fresh. As hungry travels we were happily satisfied. The portions were more than we expected. Thanks to the servers everywhere who know how to work & serve!“

“Decent pizza. We order from here nearly every weekend because it’s close to home and there’s nowhere else even across town that I’ve found worth driving to instead. Their plain cheese, chicken bacon ranch, and eggplant parm pies are great. Skip the buffalo chicken. Subs are decent when we’ve ordered but usually just do pizza. Staff are always great.“

“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.“
