If you're looking to feed a large group of people in Lake George, and you want to sit by the water,…read moreThe Lagoon is an eminently solid choice. The menu is massive, and so you should easily be able to find something for everybody...unless that person is looking for something super healthy. The Lagoon has burgers, and pizza, and lobster boats, and fish and chips, and four kinds of mac and cheese, and the appetizer list consists of all the things, fried: brussels sprouts, mozzarella wedges, wings, and more. We ordered all three of those fried things I mentioned to start, buffalo mac and cheese, a pizza, fish and chips, a cheesesteak, chicken fingers and a Greek salad. Our server was super bubbly and brought us all the sauces and drinks and everything else we asked for. It isn't going to blow you away with their culinary innovation, but The Lagoon hits a certain spot, and can seat your whole party with a view. I'd do it again.

I was here on a Tuesday afternoon and generally felt unwanted. The staff would congregate in a…read morecorner inside and someone would only venture out to the patio if there was food to deliver to a table, but you would have difficulty getting their attention even as they were walking back. Ordered was the poutine, a turkey club, and the hot buttered lobster roll. I came here for the poutine, a previous review had been very complimentary. I was underwhelmed, the gravy was thin, the cheese and tenderloin scarce. I will give the fries credit, crispy and seasoned, they were a solid base. Being so close to Canada, I'd expect better. The club was loaded up with dry turkey and not enough mayonnaise to help balance that out, but again the tots were crispy and seasoned so they were a gem, possibly the best thing here (and that's not a compliment because they're clearly a prepackaged product). The lobster in the lobster roll was chewy and dry, the roll was crispy but it was as though they had made garlic bread with a hot dog bun, then shoved some sad lobster bits in it. The coleslaw was drenched in dressing, but bland enough that I ate it for some texture and filling after being left wholly unsatisfied by my roll. All in all, I get the impression this restaurant relies solely on the lake, and their proximity to giving you a view while you eat, almost entirely to distract from a subpar performance in every other aspect of restauranting.

Parking during the busy season is a challenge. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Burger was good. Not smashed as a typical smash burger though. More like just two thin patties. House Sauce is excellent. Burger cooked well, Juicy and will satisfy. Fries were okay. Wish they were made fresh in house and not frozen. Tots also frozen variety and deep fried. Mac and cheese average. Food 3.5. Staff 4.5. = 4

Stopped in for a quick family lunch at A&W. We ordered a…read morePapa Burger, a double cheeseburger, root beers (of course), and kids' chicken fingers. The burgers were solid and the root beer was as good as expected -- those are clearly the strengths here. One small note: only the Papa Burger is listed explicitly on the menu. There are other burgers available, but you can't just order a "Teen" Burger or similar by the classic names. The kids' chicken fingers were a major miss. They were those mass-produced, spear-shaped, pressed chicken pieces that taste pretty gross. Disappointing, especially for the kids. It also felt kind of expensive -- about $60 for a family of four. Overall, if you stick to the burgers and root beer you'll be happy. Veer from that and be prepared for disappointment. Fine for a quick burger run, just manage your expectations on the sides and kids' options.

Our waitress was nice enough, but made every other table a priority. We ordered calamari and mozz sticks. The calamari was like chewing on rubber bands and unfortunately we waited almost an hour to receive that. We sat there for another 45 minutes before our entrees came out. At this point people who arrived after us have now left. I ordered the grilled chicken Alfredo. The chicken clearly came from a can. It was beige, dry and tasted literally like it was from a can. I could tell the waitress didn't even want to put it down in front of me. I have never not eaten a dish before, and I have never complained about my food. I try to be easy going and understanding but this was just an insane experience. It's a tourist trap, don't fall for it!

Our server was attentive and friendly, and the owner, Todd, took the time to chat with us and made us feel genuinely appreciated as guests. His personable attitude and great conversation really added to the experience. Amazing food, great service, and the perfect Adirondack vibe. We'll definitely be back!

I loved the prime rib wrap - it was well stuffed with meat and the outside was crispy from the grill. Dessert: the brookie (brownie + cookie) skillet was delicious! We left with lots of leftovers despite being extremely full! Service was friendly and quick also.

Dinner was equally delightful! I had Giddy Up Jalapeño that is the best Smash burger I have had the pleasure of consuming! Huge grilled chicken sandwich for my other half, juicy and flavorful! Loved the steak fries seasoned to perfection. Fries can be upgraded to Pickle seasoning or onion rings! Oh I missed that, would have definitely gone in a pickle bender! This was by far my favorite dinner and Cocktail of the week. The other watermelon cocktails I tried were dim in comparison to Nikola's masterpiece!

The fish was just average, though. A couple of easy upgrades would take this place from good to great: * The only non-alcoholic beer option is Michelob Ultra, which is pretty rough.

Overall a solid spot with some real highlights. Worth a visit, especially if you stick to the stronger items on the menu.
