The end of my beef tips. Very good.
Mike E.

I have been here 5 times or more. I have to say, each time has been a solid meal. Pricing is very fair for what you get and service has always been acceptable and friendly. I would absolutely return.

Panko haddock
Tim K.

Before the Johnny Cash tribute show last weekend, we searched for a local place to have a sitdown dinner at. The Riverhouse restaurant was where we settled. Both of us had fish for our entrées. As well as side salads. The side salads offered a nice portion with a lot of homemade dressing toppings options. We each try to different topping and we're both happy with it. We had the maple dressing and the balsamic dressing. This place takes pride in preparing a lot of its dressings right on site. A nice touch. Both of us had haddock, one of us the Panko. Broiled and fried were our choice of preparation for each. We both thought our meals were good with respectively sized portions and nice side dishes. Nothing fancy about the inside of this place, well that's no big deal. Anticipated to be your typical small-town restaurant setting with some quaint decorations and an open atmosphere seating feel. Cannot say enough positive things about our server providing ongoing check-in's about the meals. Did need to ask a couple times for water. They weren't too versed in knowing what the bar had regarding spirit brands. There was a slight lack of depth here from the bar.

On a recent trip to visit a local antique market in Pulaski- we stopped by the Lakeside Restaurant…read morefor a bite to eat and wow, were we pleasantly surprised! Seemingly in the middle of rural upstate NY is this gem of a restaurant. The server and everyone on the staff that interacted with us were simply lovely! Kind, helpful and joyful. I ordered a turkey melt with onion rings, and my friend had a burger with fried which she claimed was one of the best she had eaten in a long time. Accompanied by "sassy sauce" our fries and onion rings were dipped in this delightful yet spicy accoutrement! My turkey melt was delicious- carved turkey- not slimy cold cuts, cheese and banana peppers were a perfect and delectable combination on lightly toasted bread- simply marvelous! For desert- and they are all lovingly homemade, I had a mixed berry pie with ice cream and my friend had a slice of Dutch apple pie! Both equally and fabulously delicious! We left stuffed to the gills and so glad that we turned the truck around to try this hidden gem! Don't pass it up- stop by- it's worth it!

After a very long wait, breakfast was mostly undercooked. Runny eggs. Potato mushy. And the…read moreworse was the rubber bands undercooked bacon. The "hash" was 30% onions and smothered in cooking oil. Toast was good though. The place wasn't busy and it took 40 minutes to get food, and order was incomplete. Finally, a few folks walked in 15 minutes after me, and were known by name. They were served and ate before my food arrived undercooked. I guess you need to be local for decent service?

The Lakeside Restaurant - Don't judge this place by its outside appearance.  Terrific menu, great service.  The food was homemade, fresh and very good.

Arrived for dinner on July 1, our family is as impressed by the description on the website. Greeted…read moreby a kind hostess, a full bar/lounge and empty dining room. Six of us, with four orders of broiled haddock, one chicken parmesan, and one grilled chicken Caesar. The haddock was very disappointing. All arrived on cold plates, over-seasoned with paprika (and nothing else'), accompanied by a meager five or six overcooked thin slices of zucchini. It was obvious the vegetables were reheated, as they almost dissolved on the cold plate. The fish was barely warm, bland, and uninspired. The chicken Parmesan was very large, enough to serve three. The chicken Caesar was also lime-warm, also obviously reheated, warm and limp, not hot and seared as one would expect from a grilled chicken breast. It was chopped into shall pieces and tossed in the salad. Our friend did not eat it all, as they were turned off by the odd flavor and obvious "not grilled, reheated" presentation. Later that night, they were sick and continued to be ill into the next afternoon. This establishment needs a critical look at its head chef, freshness of ingredients, and presentation of service. I'm allowing one star for friendliness of our hostess.

Have been meaning to try this establishment since it opened and it did not disappoint!!! It will be…read moreour new go to when we go out when up at our cottage. When I arrived no one was at reception so I decided to venture into the bar and grab an espresso martini. I then sat out on their side deck and the view was spectacular! I ordered the seafood pasta special which was delicious! It came with a side salad and I appreciated that it wasn't just a small plop of bagged iceberg lettuce from the grocery store. The rolls with butter were perfect with my dish. The carrot cake was absolutely amazing! Would love to know who made it. I only give 4 starts due to the fact that my server didn't seem to know much about the menu. I asked a couple of things and she wasn't able to give me much insight. If I'm spending $25-$30 on an entree I would like the servers to be aware of what it is etc. We will most definitely be back!

I've visited this restaurant twice now, and I must say, the Espresso Martinis are fantastic! I've…read moreonly tried appetizers and drinks so far, but we decided to order The Apollo Garlic Flatbread, and I was thoroughly impressed, especially considering my picky eating habits. The restaurant offers amazing views and a cozy ambiance. The Rooftop Lounge was the perfect setting for my fiancé and me to have our first date. The service was decent, and I loved the outdoor seating area. On chilly nights, the servers even offer customers a comfy throw blanket to use on the outdoor couch by the fire. While the prices are on the higher side compared to other restaurants in the Oswego area, I believe it's the ideal spot for a romantic dinner every now and then, especially if it's not a place you can afford to visit regularly. I highly recommend this restaurant to others!

Our reservation had us seated immediately and their team went to work. It's really nice inside, small, clean and elegant. There is some nice space outside as well overlooking the city, but too cold to thoroughly enjoy the night we were there. The service was quick and smooth, and the food and drinks from top to bottom were great. Not a single complaint to be found at our table, just smiling faces and happy tummies! The menu is unique, diverse and will likely have something for everybody. I highly recommend making your reservation today, we'll certainly be back again soon. Enjoy!!
