This lady doesn't pay her employees. She's a literal roach

After standing in line to get in for breakfast, an employee comes outside to tell everyone that they are finished serving breakfast. As we're walking away, another employee comes outside to say that they will seat us for breakfast. We start with beverages, but the server informs us the drinks will be delayed because they don't have any clean glasses at the moment. Then my meal comes, the French toast is wet and slimy inside, not fit for consumption. And my scrambled eggs have a weird taste to them, but seem edible. The server offers to either have the French toast cooked longer, or I can order something else. I ask her to bring some buttered toast. Then another server comes out with my French toast and I told her I ordered regular toast instead. She seems to get angry at me and tells me no one else can eat it because I already had a bite. My wife looks at me and asks why the server was being so aggressive towards me. Our original server seemed to be doing the best she could, and a third server tried her best to be friendly, but it seemed like there was a lot of chaos going on behind the scenes, a difficult working environment and terrible food.

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.

Good service but the food was mediocre. WAYYYYY too expensive for what they deliver. Feels like they are trying to be cool and different but the meals aren’t cohesive. Lady that served us was nice and that’s the only good thing I can say.

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.

Ordered the Avocado Toast with fruit…They gave me the but ends of the bread… The avocado was bland, the bread wasn’t toasted, and my fruit was a very small bowl of soggy fruit….The staff were very friendly but we’d never go back….

Dinner was excellent, service was great! Went here for breakfast next day which was also awesome!

Older blond women who seated us never greeted us, she seemed super annoyed that we didn't have a reservation. Horrible table service, our drinks never got a refill nor were we asked. Mozzarella sticks app came with 4 for our whole table. Burgers ordered medium came beyond well done (singed, burned). Over priced and very disappointing for our family vacation dinner. Bathrooms were so disgusting I walked in and out refusing to even pee there. Don't bother!

Not a great experience. Salad was wilted and lettuce bruised. Fries in pictures online were fresh cut and they are not in person. Burger was a frozen patty I think. Was a perfect overcooked circle…. Just not great

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.

Food and service where both very good. Still waiting on its liquor license so we brought in our own.

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!
