“This restaurant truly hits all the right notes for a fantastic meal out. From the moment we walked in, the service was great – attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely friendly. The atmosphere is a highlight itself. It strikes a perfect balance, feeling both cozy and hip simultaneously. Whether you're looking for an intimate dinner or a lively gathering, the vibe adapts beautifully. And of course, the food! The dishes are clearly designed to be people-pleasing, offering something for everyone. Everything we tried was not just delicious but also beautifully presented. You can tell they put a lot of care into their menu. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a restaurant that delivers on service, ambiance, and truly great food!“

“The ribs were excellent the Mac n cheese was amazing and the rings and fries were cooked to perfection! Lisa did a fantastic job as our server. We’ll be back! Thanks!“

“Wow. This place was incredible and well worth the 15 minute drive from Lake Placid. The staff all made us feel like royalty and the food was perhaps the best meal I have had in years.“

“This restaurant was such an incredible and unexpected find on the way home from the Bloomingdale Bog! I have traveled widely and the best food I have ever had was in Venice Italy: I kid you not, the food and service here brought me back to Venice and Florence. I had the shrimp special: shrimp cooked with sautéed vegetables: onions, sliced garlic, roasted red peppers, large wands of broccoli, all cooked to perfection. The veggies still had flavor and bite, the large shrimp were perfectly cooked, and all tossed over pasta with delicately flavored sauce and olive oil, which never overpowered the flavor of the main ingredients. My partner had the Chicken special which was perfectly tender chicken breast bathed in a cognac marinara sauce, with mozzarella cheese, roasted red peppers and a side of delicate pasta. For dessert we enjoyed the Tira mi su, my favorite, which I make from scratch myself. The pastry and pastry cream were heavenly, finished with a thin layer of chocolate and a dollop of whipped cream. Stupendous. The lemon cake was also obviously made in house, with cake that was not too sweet, richly textured with a nice thick layer of lemon cream between the two layers. This dinner was a glorious North Country surprise, one that transformed this series of cold, gray days. The service was also absolutely exceptional, professional, friendly, graceful, relaxed and timely. We can't wait to return, and I would highly recommend you treat yourselves...especially now when it's slower! Light up a cold winter evening. THANK YOU!“

“Living in Saranac Lake my entire life I would have to say that Jade is one of the best restaurants I've went to if your sauce is too thin the first time you order something the next time you order it all you have to do is ask them if they can make thicker sauce and if you want more sauce they'll give you more sauce all you have to do is ask and as far as the lady when you talk to her she's actually very sweet I think a lot of people misunderstand her because there's such a language barrier but it is a really good restaurant you get a lot of food for really really cheap“

“I had an extremely poor experience at this place. 1. We were given old menus with outdated descriptions and pricing. 2. My pulled pork was filled with bone and cartilage (see picture for the inedible portions I pulled out of the food). It was nearly every bite. 3. For some reason there seemingly is a half-eaten / broken watermelon slice on each dish. 4. I advised the waitstaff and their resolution was to provide me another plate. Why would I want more bad BBQ? 5. Restrooms were poorly attended and lacked essential items. This left my friend stranded in an unfortunate situation...which I found hilarious. The people in the parking lot saw recognized my frustration and indicated their dinners were horrible as well. For two of us, the bill was $57.00. A better use of that amount would be two travel down the road about half a mile and buy some cokes and beef jerky from the local tractor supply store.“

“I wish I could go back in time and not eat at this restaurant. The food looked nice but it just didn't taste good. The menu online isn't even close to the food they actually serve.“
