The food came so fast, which was great cuz I was hungry lol I ordered fried mushrooms basket & they were absolutely delicious! We also ordered 2 burgers: Black & Bleu Burger (1/3 lb Burger with Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion smothered in Crumbly Bleu Cheese) Avocado Burger (1/3 lb Burger with American Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion & Avocado) The burgers were OK, they lacked seasoning & they were a bit bland for my liking. Ended the meal with American coffee while enjoying the river view.

The only thing keeping me from a better review is what I call the curse of the single diner. Groups got water, I didn't. The server never asked if I wanted a second drink or dessert.

We were seated upstairs and Brynn must log 100's of flights climbed each night and we enjoyed friendly, efficient, and excellent service all night. We started with the scallops app and crispy duck sushi and shared a springer pizza. The scallops app was definitely the favorite and I never thought charred scallions could make such an impact. It's a perfect plate. The crispy duck sushi is a meal alone and simply delicious. The pizza is huge and even splitting it as an entree, we took half home. It's rich and creamy and delicious. It does get loud... but that only represents happy diners a d every person on the line kindly bid us a good night and thanked us for coming in as we left. The Blue House is a wonderful dining experience.

We liked to have liked a few more choices on the menu but definitely highly recommend. May not be the best choice for picky eaters as everything is definitely geared more towards those with more adventurous interest in dining.

He then called his right hand man and soon to be sous chef a "retard and told him to get the fuck out".. when Martin called him out for being unprofessional.. United helpers who runs the company had an investigation.. found him guilty and still Fired Martin instead.. his food is just classic basic Italian.. nothing original, all over priced.. mostly anything original came from Chef Kyle Mayette.. Not Chef John, the rage monster struggling with addiction.. He and his cook Zach write they own reviews.. Zack accidentally mass sent a review he wrote to the rest of us in a group chat.. he has sense fired many other talents that got him where he is.. only a matter of time before he get his 9th job in a year..

Had an excellent meal at the Gran-View this past week. The restaurant has hired an experienced…read moredynamic Chef. The new menu ranges from small plates to Steaks and Seafood. Prices are reasonable for the quality and taste of the food presented. The chef is particular in sourcing high quality ingredients that when prepared has a unique taste. Some standouts: Seafood Chowder, Burrata cheese served with heirloom tomatoes and balsamic drizzle; petite filet mignon, and a wonderful gelato spumoni encased in a chocolate shell. I know the restaurant has had its ups and downs in recent months, but it is well recommended for a revisit or a first visit. Easily the best dining experience I have ever had in Northern NY.

The bartender/owner was excellent, more than happy to answer all questions and make friendly recommendations. We tried the garlic parm, spicy maple, raquette river pub and hoopie toopie. All were very good. If you like a different spin, try the spicy maple, I really liked it. Lots of beer choices. No problem there. If you're a beer and wings person, this is a stop for you. We haven't tried their other menu items but will come back and try their brunch, it sounds delicious!!

Unbeknownst to us we were charged for our drink refills which we wouldn't have needed if it didn't take so long for our food. We asked to substitute onion rings for food and asked if it was like fries or tots additional $2.50. When bill arrived it was an additional $6.24. After we were done eating we asked how much longer for our to go meal which we ordered when we got our food. By the time waitress got back to us it'd be another 20 minutes. Of course, we cancelled. Also, didn't have fried cheese curd available. Morgan was very pleasant and the atmosphere was fun with music bingo. Ask if we would go back???, absolutely not. Guess we should have gone to 5 guys.

The portion size is huge! 14oz ribeye, over easy eggs, toast, hash browns, and coffee. I told my server that I might need a doggie bag. She assured me I'd be fine. And, happy to say, after continually reminding myself to eat slowly and chew, I ate everything. I usually don't put sauce on my steak, but I've never seen these ones before, so I dabbed a bit of each. One of the things that I love about diners is the atmosphere. They're not trying to be something they're not. Home cooked, unpretentious food that satisfies. And, at a wallet friendly price.
