    Moqueca.

    Moqueca is a Brazilian seafood stew. This Moqueca was made with Mahi Mahi, coconut milk, red palm oil, basmati rice, tangy tomato salad, and assorted vegetables. Service and ambiance were great.

    Grilled Chicken & Pistachio Risotto

    We've been visiting Long Lake for a few years now on our annual summer vacation - and were always stuck with "where do we go for 'date night'?" We weren't looking for "chi chi" necessarily - just a really good meal...with maybe a little ambiance. The size of Long Lake pushed us 30 minutes north to Tupper Lake. After a couple mediocres over the years, I can't believe we found Amado! Now, I'll be honest...the exterior isn't the "best." Frankly, it looks like a little hole in the wall...and not in the best way (that's coming from someone who LOVES a hole in the wall). But once you open the door? WOW! A lovely little bistro! As for the food...delish. The portion of warm bread for the table could have been a bit larger, but was tasty. The Onion & Ale soup - was a 7/10...I do like the cheese actually more melted, but yummy none the less. My hubs got the Short Rib/Gnocchi special...I have never had a better gnocchi - they were beautiful little pillows of deliciousness. The meat? The little bit the hubs let me sample - sumptuous. As for me? Grilled Chicken & Pistachio Risotto - one word, AMAZEBALLS. Well cooked, tasty chicken enveloped in a beautiful risotto dotted throughout with lovely pistachios. Not a single complaint. I forced myself to stop halfway through (and then chowed the rest once we got home). And you certainly can't offer an apple strudel with vanilla ice cream and not expect me to dive in face first...especially when what arrives is a gorgeous warm pastry anointed with decadent ice cream. SO good. Great service, a terrific beer list and amazing food. Whether you're on a date with someone new...or someone you're already into...GREAT choice. It's the perfect "date" night place. Going out with friends or family? Surely great for that, too! I pray they stick around - we'll ALWAYS go back.

    Great outside dining that will serve short term for Covid and long term after....very tastefully done without being over the top.

    Our dinner was very nice in the relaxed garden area in the back of the restaurant. Hubby had the Wild boar Italian sausage and a cup of the white clam chowder with white chocolate. Both were good, if you like your chowder sweet :). I had grilled shrimp with half a Caesar salad which was also good...however would have been better with less salt on the shrimp and half the dressing on the salad.

    Went to a wine pairing diner last night at a local restaurant, six course meal was a bit overwhelming but super tasty along with six glasses of generously poured wines. The chef expertly crafted each dish to please the eyes and the palate. I was pleasantly surprised at the plates, ranging from frog legs to venison to monk fish! Each course was executed well and had a sauce finesse not normally found in the ADK. I truly enjoyed the delicate frog legs that could have been overcooked but here it was perfectly moist and seasoned along with the silkiness of the creamed spinach was the winner of the night for me. My monk fish bathed in beure blanc was devine. The short rib ravs with smoked tomatoes and hand pulled pasta could of used a touch of sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes but tasty all the same. My only hiccup of the evening came with the venison course. My cut was overcooked to medium where all other guests had rare to medium rare could just been the end cut but it was a bit too dry for me. My medallion was indeed med-rare which I was happy to see and flavorful with its mushroom Demi-glaze. We fished strong with the cranberry strudel with a lovely ice-cream. All the wines were paired nicely and although I was the DD I did manage to sip each along with a bite of each dish to access the profile! We will return to Amado soon as the chef's elevated creativity was truly a pleasant surprise!

    Chicken with white wine risotto

    We went for the first time after hearing many good things. We sat in the outside dining area. It was a warm night and we were not under the fans which would have been nice. We ordered the arugula salad with ahi tuna for an appetizer. For the price of 16.95 I thought there would be more than 4 very small pieces of tuna. The salad was very dry as well. We opted to not order wine by the glass and Im happy we didn't because the pours in the glasses we that we saw others getting was very small. The main entrees we ordered were very good but the portions are very small for the prices. We were served bread and before our entrees were delivered we were asked if we wanted more bread. We said yes but were not told that there was a charge of $5.50 for the second round. Thats not nice. We should have been told about the charge and we probably would not have opted for the second very small amount of bread. Over all we had a nice dinner. The prices are high for the portions you get.

    Grilled salmon with tarragon. Light white wine tasting sauce. Yum!
