    Onion rings
    Susan L.

    Great up north diner. Service was extremely friendly and fast. There is a long countertop for service, and several booths. We chose to set it a booth, although the counter is very popular. I ordered their classic dirt dog with the works. It's a nice meaty sauce and comes with mustard and chopped onion. Delicious. I accompanied it with onion rings, which were some of the best I've ever eaten. Ever. My husband got the 6 ounce sirloin burger on a hard roll. The burger was very good, although the bun tasted slightly stale. Got the french fries which were very, very good and hot. I would definitely recommend this for a quick and inexpensive lunch.

    The spot to go to when Lake George is not in season and you want that fill you up breakfast for a great price. Couldn't have asked for better pancakes. Large in size, soaks up the syrup I dump on it, and easy to clean the plate. I at first didn't order eggs but happy I did, they came out HOT! Not that hot to warm you typically get because they sat on the plate for two minutes before being brought to your table. Sausage was cooked to perfection. Will be back when the town wide tag sale is in town.

    Eggs, English muffins, and corned beef hash

    Friendly service and good food. Glad we stopped by for breakfast. It was worth it. The corned beef hash was recommended by another customer and my husband said that it did not disappoint.

    Philly cheese steak
    Mark M.

    Pooh and I stopped here for lunch on our way to Lake George. This is a diner style set up. The people in this town are friendly and the staff here are too. Pooh ordered a Philly Cheese Steak and I ordered a Sirloin burger with fries. Pooh loved his Philly Steak. It was juicy and a perfect blend of steak and cheese My burger was juicy and the bun was fresh. The fries were super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside What I found interesting is that the "fixings" for the burger were all extra. Maybe that is a regional thing or even an American thing. I just found it interesting

    Food The food is good. Everything came out hot. We liked that! The hot dog buns came out warm/hot, nice. I can skip the meat sauce. (Personal preference) The tater tots had a nice crunch to it. The chips appear to be made by the restaurant. I didn't ask, but it was good. The fish sandwich hits the spot. Service Efficient and friendly Ambiance Comfortable. Stop in to see for yourself.

    Hot dogs

    This place rules. Everyone is so friendly and you feel right at home. Get. A. Hot Dog. Actually make sure you get more than one. We just got one to try it along with our breakfast and we regretted it and wish we had 4 each. The eggs here come out hot and fresh tasting. Even the water is good (some of you know what I mean). Sit at the counter and watch the magic happen, because everyone who works here is a pro.

    We came during Americade week, people on top of people, full of traffic. We were looking for a restaurant off the beaten path and found one in Warrenburgh. The waitress served us quickly and our food came prepared fast. We enjoyed our meal in a nice friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back again!

    When in Lake George we always have lunch here. The food is delicious and the service is great. We love sitting outside and looking at the mountains. Don't pass this place by.

    a hot dog, onion rings, and burger
    Nancy H.

    Sorry didn't love it. Had the hot dogs and onion rings - hot dogs were ok - didn't meet the hype at all. Yellow mustard was watery, no flavor and meat sauce so salty and more like a paste than meat sauce. But a deal for $2. Onion rings were crispy but too greasy. Friends burger was average - don't think it was fresh - likely frozen. Waited a long while for our food, then a while after we ate our meals for waitress again. She came ready with our check and didn't ask if we wanting anything else. We were going to try one of the many pies on the counter. We found our waitress to be a bit intense - almost intimidating - didn't get the welcome feeling shared in other reviews. We did like the atmosphere - cute, retro luncheonette type place.

    A real local venue with an extremely limited menu. The staff couldn't have been nicer and they ran their butts off to provide great service.

That's about all the good I can say about this place. At this price point you would expect professional wait staff... Our dishes came out a couple at a time. Ive had much better food from diners and other places that don't cost nearly as much. Their prices position themselves as upscale but it is far from it. Short order cooks could do better. Chicken Marsala was two small nuggets of chicken over a large amount of pasta. My aunt said it tasted like they poured the Marsala over it instead of cooking with it. I got the pumpkin and apple risotto. This was one huge bowl of Risotto. Like getting a bowl of porridge. It was supposed to have diced pumpkin, Carmelized apples, spinach, julienne vegetables and pecans (I think). None of that was present. I was told it was blended in.... Really? It was like having a big bowl of risotto for your dinner and did not at all resemble what was described on the menu. I sent it back and got a side salad with ranch dressing. How could you ruin that? Well it was heavily salted, that's how. My husband got the Turkey and that too tasted overly salty . Don't mind spending money on great food but this was atrocious. Only one person liked their dish which was the crab cake. Can't even fathom how they stay in business.

    Update.. We gave it another try and sad to say that this…read moreplace is done... My friend who was staying at the Inn part asked if we were good for party of 8 the same night and was told yes. When we showed up, the waiter said they got busy and had to sit us outside..there were 5 or 6 tables inside and enough tables to put together for a 8 top. We sat outside with the fans blowing in our faces and was told by the waiter that if we order cocktails, it would be 20 mins.... the food was not good at all... would not go back. Hopefully the Grist Mill will open soon.

    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.

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.
