    Every time we visit Lake Placid we enjoy a delicious family dinner at Luna Restaurant. Luna is all about family. This first generation immigrant family serves delicious, homemade Italian/Mediterranean food. The owner is the head chef, and the wife and children greet and create a wonderful experience in the cozy dining room. We are always welcomed as if we are having dinner at our own family gathering. The food is always delicious and the service outstanding.

    Artichoke and Shrimp special appetizer

    Blown away by the food, service, and ambiance, the trifectas. Luna was suggested by a local we were visiting in Lake Placid, and it did not disappoint. Someone in our party had a food allergy and the service we very kind to accommodate and make suggestions. We went with an artichoke and shrimp salad and the NY strip steak which was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The lights are low in this restaurant, which gave us a cozy atmosphere to unwind from the long day, a welcomed change. We were glad to have had Luna recommend to us, so we can recommend to others. Such a wonderful time here.

    Caesar salad

    Service was a 4/5 while food was a 2/5. The staff were pretty nice, which was the only positive about our visit. We came here because Smoke Signals had too long of a wait, and someone in our party was getting hangry. The Caesar salad was the grossest thing. It was full of wilted looking leaves, soggy croutons, and drenched in all too much dressing. The spaghetti and meatballs was below average. It basically tasted like something a college student would make. Insanely overpriced for what this food was. It's more expensive than Boston North End with food worse than cafeteria grub. Do yourself a favor and go to Smoke Signals next door. You will immediately notice how Smoke Signals is packed and Luna isn't. It's worth the wait.

    Stopped in again, it's been two years and the food is still delicious! Waitstaff are friendly, and easily explained all the food I can eat as a GF person (gf pasta, and all of the seafood dishes!). I enjoyed sitting in the window seat, soaking up the sun with music in the background.

Great spot for a casual meal--I would definitely go back when in Lake Placid! Service is okay. Additional Information: 1. Metered parking on the street. Just a suggestion, download the app, it makes payment easy and a simpler way to extend time. 2. There is also a metered lot across the street. Highly recommended. 3. There is a large indoor eating area and bar. 4. There is a patio dining area as well. 5. No lake view from the patio. If you find the information useful or like the pictures, drop a comment.

    Not worth the wait. Gave our name and they said 25 minutes…read morewe were fine with that. A table stood empty the entire time we waited. Serval more opened within those 25 minutes and sat empty. . My daughter had the chicken sandwhich she said it was good. Mojito mocktail & my ST Germain spritz were very good. I ordered the lobster tacos, I was asked fries or chips I said fries no salt he said they come into the restaurant seasoned. I said chips then he said they also seasoned I can substitute salad. Was surprised when the salad came out and it was in its own dish not on the side of the plate. There was a charge of $3 dollars for the salad on the bill I questioned the server and he said there is a fee for substitutions it is stated in the menu. My menu was closed when I placed the order. I didn't ask he told me he can substitute. When he told me he can substitute he should have mentioned that there was a fee.

    Make regular visits to Lake Placid / Keene Valley yearly and always struggle to find good food…read more This past trip ended up in Sentinel & Station as the town was pretty busy with an event (Can AM Rugby tournament) so every place had waiting lists. We were able to get right into Sentinel & Station and had a great meal and service. The menu is on the smaller side but everything was interesting. I ended up getting the short ribs with a whipped parsnips topped with some sort of slaw which was excellent. My fiancé had the Lamb Meatball gnocchi which was also great. You might be able to argue it was a little small if you had just finished the iron man or hiked a peak or two but it was perfect for her. Additionally the focaccio bread and oil/balsamic was great. They kind of coin themselves a wine bar but had some good beer on tap. I wasn't drinking but belive they had a Maine Lunch IPA on tap which would definetly put you in a elite beer category as well. One thing that might be tough is a kids menu as nothing is listed but the cook probably has something up his sleeve and could pull an audible for you. Will definetly be back.

    I have been visiting Lake Placid for several decades now and it has never been a place that one…read morewould consider to be a foodie destination. We have tried places in town over the years and most have been fine, but the food has tended to be relatively straightforward and/or uninspired. Before Sentinel & Station, this space was a concept called Liquids and Solids, which was trying to be a bit more upscale and refined but ultimately fell into the uninspired camp. When I heard about Sentinel & Station's recent opening, I knew I wanted to at least try it out. After our meal here, we left impressed, content, sated, and eager to return to try all that we didn't get to on our first visit. The vibe was cozy and friendly, the service was excellent, and the food was creative, of impressive quality, and very well executed. We came here as a party of eight on a Saturday night at 8:30pm. We were immediately welcomed and tended to with generosity and humor which set the tone for the entire night. The cocktail menu here is pretty dizzying, as its presented such that all of the ingredients of each drink are listened to the point that the anticipated flavor profile can be lost when you're looking it over. I ended up just getting the house martini with gin, which is served with both lemon and olives, but I tried many of the others just to get a sense, including the: Smoked Boulevardier (bourbon, bitter, bonal, carpano antica, yuzu bitters, spritz of lagavulin), Balsamic Fizz (vodka, pineapple, strawberry-balsamic puree, soda), and The Dopest Dope I've Ever Smoked (mezcal, pamplemousse liqueur, pineapple-basil juice, suze, cocchi americano). Of the three, I preferred the Smoked Boulevardier, the Balsamic Fizz was a little bit too watered down but with less ice the flavor profile would have been excellent, and the Dopest Dopest I've Ever Smoked, despite seeming like the most exciting of the bunch, was actually the least interesting. I was happy to have gone the classic route, and I got the Sivi pinot orange wine second, which was excellent (I realized afterwards that my wine person at home has actually picked this wine out for me before so I have apparently liked it for a long time). Food-wise, the menu is quite diverse and playful, and while it also lists a good many ingredients in each dish, it does not have the same effect as it does on the drink menu reading experience, and in general the food was consistently outperforming the cocktails. We were bummed that they were out of the mussels (which we originally ordered) because they looked fantastic and were highly recommended, but that just means we'll need to return in the future. Many of us split a bunch of dishes so I'll just speak to those I tried. There was not one wrong note all night so grading each dish is pretty pointless, but I might as well do what I can in an attempt to underscore the consistently great food and highlight the favorites. Eats, below: Heirloom Carrots w/ greek yogurt, pistachio, gochujang honey: A+ So good we got a second order when we realized we might need to beef up our second course. Incredibly flavorful with a subtle kick. Grilled Maitake w/ smoky blanco crema, spicy macha crisp, trout roe: A Would have happily gotten a second order of these too because the portion was small, but once again, packed with flavor. Grilled maitake is definitely one of my favorite mushroom preparations and this dish is a great example of why I maintain this. And the trout roe was just divine. Caesar Salad: A Also threw this in last minute and it was exactly what you'd hope for. Classic, perfectly executed, and a nice complement to some of the richer entrees. Tuna Nachos w/ crudo, seaweed salad, tomato, jalapeño, sesame crisps: A+ Potentially my favorite dish of the night. It looks like a lot when served to you but if you're splitting it four ways as we did, it's not much for each person which may be sad if you love it as much as I did. Rainbow Trout w/ pea puree, tarragon velouté, heirloom carrots, balsamic: A Warming, delicious, earthy, rich -- all great things. More heirloom carrots here but not complaining, they were a nice complement to the dish. The pea puree was fun and the combo of that plus the velouté was particularly delicious. Short Rib w/ pickled radish, whipped parsnip, red wine jus, jalapeño-lime jicama slaw: A+ I somehow did not get a picture of this one! I rarely eat red meat, mainly because I don't like it much, but short rib is one of the few exceptions to that. Melt in your mouth, tender goodness.

While the area is a bit small, any minor inconvenience quickly fades into the background once you see the fantastic views of the lake.
