Best pizza, owner really cares about customers. Fluffiest pizza deep dish. Good location people watching. Don't miss this place.

Sweet people but the burger was a big disappointment we went based on the reviews and love supporting small businesses. We could only taste the dressing - two small patties and could not taste the meat. The smash burger is suppose to be the star - not the dressing Please do better - you charge enough read more

Wow Bambaz, I'm in love. It's hard to find late night eats in downtown LG! And I'm not even talking 'late night' - this was like 11 PM. We didn't want a pizza slice, and all of the bars had stopped serving food. And then we found Bambaz, and our problem was solved. They are known for their crispy chicken sandwiches and tots, so of course we had to order. Everything was delicious and totally satisfied our late night craving (especially after a few drinks). The decor and vibes are also super cute here. It's a family run spot and the owner is so nice and friendly. We got to talking and even learned that we were from the same town. Totally a small world. This is a top-notch place for some quality eats in LG. Check 'em out! read more

Fantastic smashburger!! Better than Shake Shack for sure. The owner and his son Brandon are very friendly. The young son, who had the Bambaz as a kid, was professional and sincere. It's obvious he had a great upbringing by his dad. I love the decor... It's all old model cars. The stuff old farts like me collected in the 80s. read more

Stopped in here relatively late for dinner and wow. Had the smashburger and it had to be one of the best burgers I've ever had. Will be back again for sure! read more

We were up in Lake George with family to spend a beautiful day together. After checking out the fort and walking around, we started to get hungry. Hubby discovered Bambaz on a previous trip and couldn't wait to get back. The host, Vincent, remembered him and came to talk to us which was so nice. I always like when owners come around to check on you. The food did not disappoint. I had the best Grilled Chicken Parmesan sandwich of my life! They make their own bread, it's like a mix between a focaccia and biscuits. I'm not of the process but IT IS SOOOOO GOOD. Hubby got the Mac and Cheese bowl that was also incredible and HUGE! Seriously...it feeds at least two people. I had quite a bit for someone with a sensitivity to dairy but I didn't care...I was willing to pay the consequences! Ha ha The place is small and cozy AND we were allowed to bring our well behaved pup with us which made a huge difference. Thank you Vincent for a great meal. We will be back next time we're in Lake George. read more

Family absolutely loved this pizza. Run, don't walk to this place. Seriously. Top notch service. read more

I walked into this burger spot and was greeted with amazing service. I was talking to the owner, Vincent, and his son from the time I ordered until the time the food was out. I never have met owners of a business that were so kind and sincere. We had such great conversation, but the experience there just began. Both me and my girlfriend ordered a smash burger and a side of mac and cheese. The food was a 10/10. The burger was perfectly cooked with their house sauce and toppings. It wasn't greasy and didn't feel heavy; it also came on a seeded bun. The Mac and cheese was creamy and delicious, and topped with a little bread crumbs. Nothing was heavy or oily. I highly suggest this spot, and when I come back to lake George will be returning here to eat every time!! read more

Not sure how they have so many 5 star reviews. The owner was singing his own praises so perhaps we expected too much. The pizza was burnt around the edges and there was very little taste. Also ordered the mac n cheese with tater tots. It was nothing special but tater tots are good no matter what. read more

If you're looking for a tasty lightweight smash burger then this is the perfect spot for you! Filled my craving without causing me the dreadful -itis. Fries were crispy and the Mac was covered in cheese. I feel like everything could've used a little more seasoning but overall it was pretty good! And the vibes were chill, the staff are super friendly and attentive to making sure you have all you need and clean up quick. read more

So good. Mac n cheese was phenomenal and this is coming from someone who really isn't big on Mac n cheese

I had no expectations at all and showed up accidentally but had the best grilled cheese sandwich in years. Wonderful nice friendly staff.

Mac with meatballs - very good Smash burgers double patties- very good Chicken cutlets - mediocre, skip it. It was dry, and the cutlet was burnt. read more

Friendly staff Delicious tots!! Bought the family bucket Perfect snack to buy for a walk around the area. read more

Bambaz - ows a menu for mac - n - cheese - Burgers Near Me - Lake George, New York

We bought the Trio Mac. It was huge and the two of us shared it. It was so good. The owner is super friendly and helpful.

Possibly the best Mac 'n' cheese we've ever had - and we've had lots. The smash burger was sensational, too. Even the fries exceeded expectations - crispy, fluffy, and not too salty. Fun fact: They make their OWN CHEESE. Amazing. And like someone else said, the portions are large: One Mac 'n' cheese bowl filled me up and leftovers filled up my husband the next night. The chef/owner himself brought out our smash burger and Mac 'n' cheese, and his wife/owner checked on us several times. The woman at the counter was so friendly and polite, too. Fantastic service. The patio is tiny but it was fun to sit a people watch while we ate (at 10 pm on a summer Thursday). Open very late, too! This was an excellent meal for a reasonable price in the midst of the Lake George Village tourist strip. Massively exceeded expectations - we'll be back. read more

Bambaz - Can't miss this storefront. Patio is in the foreground. - Burgers Near Me - Lake George, New York

Vincent, the owner took what was a delicious meal to a true experience. The smash Mac n cheese was off the hook delicious and Vincent kept us laughing and enjoying our first trip to New York. Thank you for the great food, at a very reasonable price and showing us that upstate NY is a perfect place to visit read more

this place is a great bite on the strip!! the girl at the counter was friendly and helpful recommending the tater tots instead of the fries which was a good call! they were so crispy and delicious and the mac and cheese is PERFECTION ‼ so cheesy and creamy and buttery i would go back just for the mac and cheese. and the burger was delicious too! so fresh!! the decor is super fun and cool to look at while you wait for your food or sit and eat however they don't have ac so if you plan on dining inside keep that in mind. read more

The owner is so hospitable. Cared about the food and patrons. My kiddos loved the Mac and cheese, Pacific Cod fish and tots. 3 out of 5 enjoyed the burgers only because one kiddo saw a green onions incorporated in the patty; so it was not for him. But it was definitely for the rest of us! Good flavor! Loved all of the model cars decorations. read more

we stopped in later in the day on a Sunday, when town was pretty quiet. We were warmly greeted by the owner and his son, who put me at ease about our sons peanut/tree nut allergy. Our kids enjoyed the Mac-n-meatballs, chicken nuggets and tater tots and our son especially enjoyed the smash burger. The fresh lemonade was delicious as well. We had an overall great experience and will be stopping in again next time we're in town. read more

Ordered pizza .."yeah that's at our other restaurant , we would have to driveto get " Burger Meat was grey and nasty Mac and cheese tastless Potato tota excellent Don't open if you don't have 3/4 of the menu it means read more

Be mindful on how you order. Portions are large. Mac and cheese was awesome. Mac and cheese can feed two teens. Kids portion was also large. Smash burger was really good, the sauce on it was a bbq mayo mix. The owner's attitude is what got my review. He noticed we had kids with us and really took some extra attention to help us out. Food came out fast and service was very hospitable read more

Just went here tonight on a whim as I needed something to eat before going back to our hotel. I got the smash Mac and cheese platter which comes with a smash burger, Mac and cheese, and fries. The food was very good ! I enjoyed the burger and my family started picking at the fries until they were all gone, they couldn't stop eating them. The portion of Mac and cheese was a good size as I could not finish it. Totally recommend this place - we will definitely be back. read more

We have been coming to lake George for 3 summers now. Eat the Mac and cheese bowl last summer and really enjoyed it so,we stopped in for it again this summer and saw they had a smash burger now. OMG it was absolutely amazing! Really might be one of the best smash burgers I've had in some time and we eat out quite often. We came back multiple times In the week we were up there this year! The tots and fries were amazing as well. They have a mango drink that was really good also! As well as the food being amazing,the service was top notch also. It's a small family owned business and the whole family is a pleasure to talk with and extremely nice! 10/10 and highly recommend!!! read more

I work a few doors down, have all summer and I'm ashamed to admit that yesterday is the first time I've even tried the food. Yesterday we got a Smashburger with fries, the special sauce on the side and Mac and cheese that had tots and nuggets on top. First off- the service was speedy and the food was affordable. Cute shop also! Very clean :) The wait was almost non existent and the food. THE FOOD!!! It was delicious, the tots were crunchy on the outside but soft in the inside. The nuggets had the perfect crispness and the Mac and cheese was out of this world. Burger was 5 starts too. Cooked perfectly and that special sauce is amazing! I couldn't stop dipping everything in it. Top notch service- easily could've fed 5 people and the staff are awesome. Will absolutely be back again! No more sleeping on Bambaz!! read more

Menu said hand breaded chicken sandwich, was obviously not, frozen chicken patty, as all our sandwiches were nearly identical. My Daughter loved the chicken nuggets, they looked and tasted like McDonald's . Food took forever for late afternoon. Dining area wasn't clean, floor was filthy read more

Stopped in for a quick bite and we found this hidden gem. Ordered just a smash burger but it was fantastic! Cheesy, crispy burger with a house made sauce! Absolutely delicious! Owner/manager was super polite and friendly. Lots of smiles and conversation while waiting for our food. read more

Super friendly head chef and staff. Burgers and fries were delicious. My daughter loved her Mac and Cheese! Highly recommend.

Family run business that is friendly and affordable in a great location with the cutest outside seating. Homemade fresh squeezed lemonade is on the menu and I wished I ordered it. The tater tots were perfectly cooked as were the chicken nuggets. My meal could have easily fed two adults. My husband had a smash burger and fries which he said was outstanding. Service was quick and very friendly. We will be back! Save a lemonade for me!! read more

Little hidden gem in Lake George Village. Service was excellent. Smash burgers were amazing. Mac and Cheese were delicious as well as our nuggets and fries. Didn't get a chance to take photos as we devoured it as it came. The serving size was appropriate and some were even plenty enough to share with others. Good to eat with the kids as well. They have a small outdoor seating which is enough if you want to just sit and relax while eating. Great experience. Will definitely recommend and come back. read more

Good food, family run business. Stopped in on a rainy afternoon looking for something to tide us over before dinner. We got the Smash-N-Mac combo. Was very tasty. Wish I would've taken a photo. Son was playing guitar. Sounded great. Wishing these guys the best! read more

Absolutely loved the food! The Mac n cheese was my absolute favorite, definitely homemade. The staff were incredibly kind and patient with our orders. Don't miss out on this great spot! read more

I would highly recommend everyone to try! The homemade drinks were fantastic. I ended up buying two more before leaving. The food and atmosphere are great! I want to give a shout out to the cashier/server Brandon. The guy is the nicest dude I ever met, very informative and welcoming! read more

Disappointing....the staff was super friendly, and owner seemed great too. However, I expect if you're going to have a simple menu-the basics should be done right. Smash burger-when done correctly, is a delicious way you can prepare a burger. A really hot cooking surface, and burger pressed down (smashed) to create a wonderful caramelization and crust on the outside of the burger-which seals in the juices and should result in a delicious juicy burger. Our burgers were gray. There was absolutely no browning on the burger patties. The meat inside was mealy, dry and gray. Sauce was skimpy, roll was dry/stale. Tater tots were crispy and delicious; but with the 5 star ratings here on Yelp ; I was expecting deliciousness. Also, the seating area was stifling! I had a hard time enjoying my meal while it was 110 degrees in the place. Concept is great-need to work on execution. Also; no recycling bin? Come on... just put a basket out. In this day and age that's just inexcusable. Best of luck moving forward-I hope my criticism are constructive ; that is my intention. read more

Food and service was great. Prices were also good. Don't miss this place if you are in the area!

The food was incredible we had a Detroit style pizza and it was amazing. The service was incredible very friendly and sweet the atmosphere was great I loved the scenery and I loved the car displays the pizza was very crunchy and delicious just the way I like it 5 out of 5 would recommend to everyone!!!! read more

The owner was super nice and very accommodating! Love these family places. Burgers were made fresh to order and absolutely delicious! If you like a little, or a lot, of heat-this is your place! If you don't, just let them know. Highly recommend! read more
