    This used to be one of our favorite places, but the last 3 times we have been here the service has…read morebeen pretty bad (nice people but not enough help and zero management). They do not train their staff well, and there is clearly a lot of disorganization. On top of that, they have changed the menus and completely removed signatures like the pizza which was one of the best in town. Pretty disappointing as we always liked the vibe. They need a real manager in here to turn things around. They will lose a lot of summer business in the meantime.

    We stopped into Big Slide this evening for a spur of the moment Father's Day dinner. After going…read moreover the menu options we went with three kids meals, the Tacos Al Pastor, and the Chicken Quesadilla. Our server was Rylan, who was absolutely fantastic! He was polite, extremely personable, and gave a great recommendation to me on the quesadilla, which turned out to be spot on and was DELICIOUS! I couldn't stop saying how good it was. I also got a flight of 5 beers, which themselves were each unique and enjoyable. Overall we didn't expect much going to a Mexican themed restaurant at a brewery, but we left very impressed and happy we gave it a go. Thanks to Rylan and the kitchen, we had a great experience and would highly recommend giving them a try if in the area. Also I'd note that it was almost empty (A Sunday) when we arrived at almost 5:30, but by the time we left there wasn't an empty seat in the place. So it seems they got a good thing going here

    I have a bit of a story about Generations. Seven years ago,…read moremy family stopped in while visiting Lake Placid and, unfortunately, it was a pretty rough experience. After waiting over an hour for our food with no updates in sight, we finally left hungry and declared we'd never return. (We've all made dramatic vacation proclamations before!) When we got home, I wrote to the restaurant, and Natasha, the manager, personally responded with a sincere apology. She explained they had been incredibly short-staffed and invited us to come back if we were ever in Lake Placid again, promising a better experience. Well, seven years later, my sons found themselves in Lake Placid with friends and decided to give Generations another chance. They asked if Natasha was still there, and amazingly, she was! Not only that, but she remembered my email from all those years ago. This time, everything was wonderful. Great food, attentive service, a relaxing outdoor table, and happy young men!--which is review enough! To top it all off, when they asked for the check, they were told the meal was on the house. Natasha's kindness, grace, and commitment to making things right left a lasting impression. Thank you for turning a not-so-great memory into a great one. Cheers to Natasha and the team at Generations!

    Just got to town for a conference, wanted to try BBQ at the Pickled Pig, but they were closed, even…read morethough the site said they were open, so I came here instead. This place is just OK, it's sort of touristy with the basic menu, but pretty dining room. I asked the server if they had good, fresh iced tea, he said yes and then brought me a bottle of ice tea, not at all what I requested. Next up was to try a cup of their onion soup. The soup came out looking beautiful, the flavor was very nice, the temperature was moderate, I would have expected it to be server hotter, since it's soup. Then I ordered their Ruben. About 10 minutes later the server came back advising the chef said he didn't have anymore of the meat for it, so they offered to make it with turkey instead and since I love a Rachel (the turkey version of a Ruben) even more, I went for it. It came out looking pretty good and tasted quite nice. The fries were warm; again, not hot, but they had a decent flavor. Overall, I can see why the reviews are mediocre at best here.

    The service was quick and the restaurant was clean and cute inside…read more I got the ramen with tofu, which was a big serving and overall good. I tried the chicken riggies which was good, but not a fan of the side vegetables that came with it. Got the calamari appetizer which was okay. Definitely recommend the peanut butter pie for desert (I don't even like peanut butter and this was delicious).

    I'm so sad to leave a poor review, but there were multiple problems with my groups experience…read more Our server was attentive and friendly, however made multiple errors - they forgot an appetizer entirely, three entrees came out late, and a side was late and incorrect. Drinks were messed up and orders had to be repeated about 3 separate times. The restaurant was not busy, so I'm unsure how this could've happened. Some of the food was good - those who got the french dip sandwiches enjoyed it, as well as the wings. However, the black bean burger and beef stroganoff were average. It didn't blow us out of the water. The stroganoff had good flavor but was sitting in a pool of oil so that put some people off. I am visiting town, but unfortunately I would not come again if I return to Lake Placid due to the disorganization, errors, long wait for food and lack of food quality to make up for the prior problems.

    The food was solid. My two friends and I got there minutes before opening and it felt deserted. We…read morecalled to make sure they actually open at 9am. We were waiting with two elderly and they recommended trying the sourdough pancakes. We got in by 9:05 and by 9:30 the whole place was packed. People say the woman is rude and I see that. Her attitude was dependent on how busy she was. When we first arrived and stood inside by the door, she teased us for not coming to the cash register to order food. The elderly ordered first and when we tried to order immediately after, she scolded us to wait. We each got the mountain man combo. I asked if I could get sourdough pancakes in the combo and I eventually got my way. The sourdough pancakes tasted like sourdough while being just grainy enough to count as pancakes. I liked it. We were supposed to get toast with our combos and when we asked, she said, "Well it normally does. Do you want it?" ...what? We got fresh semolina bread, and It was worth it. One friend felt like he was being punished for placing an order at the restaurant. I was laughing inside because nothing made sense. Good thing we were mentally prepared for these issues because she could have soured our moods instantly. It was hilarious how accurate the customer service reviews were. We had a great time getting mixed feelings between attitude and food. While we were terrified at times, the food was great and that is a fact.

    Food was great. Service was poor. Very unfriendly and not helpful when asking about menu.read more
