Hawaiian Shrimp Bowl
Rachel B.

The food was delicious! Granted I had been camping for 5 days so far so could also be because I was excited to non-camp food. Either way the food good, our server was friendly & attentive, & would come back! Glad this had outdoor seating to be able to enjoy the nice Sunday day outside. Would come back & recommend to others! Also went to their merchandise store & it did not disappoint.

Hosted a rehearsal dinner in May. This venue was perfect. Wonderful views of lake George in a room truly built to host. The service was spectacular. The owner's willingness to accommodate requests while trusting his event planner's ability was phenomenal. The event planner"s attention to details is rivaled by none. The bartender and servers could not have been more helpful and professional. The food was done to perfection. Prime rib and horseradish encrusted salmon were among the favorites. I believe the room only holds about sixty people. We have forty and plenty of room to walk around visiting the guests while enjoying the beautiful lake view. I highly recommend this venue as well as just stopping by for lunch or dinner.

The clam chowder was great! Everything else my family got, they ended up LOVING! The service was amazing. And the lakeside view was great! We will definitely be coming back, I recommend you come too!

Our visit was precipitated by a long overdue reunion for my fella and a fellow chiropractor who graduated chiro college together. The Weather dictated our meeting spot and when we pulled into the venue during a downpour, a restaurant staffer came out to the car with an umbrella to escort me in, nice n dry. Amazing service and courtesy. The bar tender Wolfgang was a lovely fellow to chat up, a local to the area but only Two days in at this venue. He also does white water rafting and offers his Guide services during the season. His service was lovely and attentive. 5 star service indeed. The reason for the loss of a star was re: the one food item we had - the hummus platter. The menu DID mention pickled vegetables with the dish, with a LOT of hummus, four mini pitas. The ONLY FRESH vegetable were a few sticks of cucumber, the rest were olives, pickled carrots and beans. I Felt like I might blow up like a tick from all the salt. Perhaps a marketing strategy to "drink more beer"? hmmm??? Either way, that was the only menu item we had so can't make a fair comment. Either way, from the view, the service and the company... it was pretty amazing. Priced accordingly- private parking lot & I am Certain that during the peak season, it's a little crazy... there are Boat slips to pull right up.

Had a great lunch here. Had a bowl of clam chowder and the carnitas and fish tacos. Good portions, good service, and good food all at a reasonable price. To top it off we sat outdoors and had a view of the lake. Would recommend and we'll be back when we visit again!

A really great lunch! I'm not sure why this place has such poor ratings on Yelp and Google. I had the Fish Point which was an excellent buttered filet of sole. Very mild, pleasant taste that precludes the use of tartar sauce. The calamari was a large portion with wonderful jalapeño jelly. (It wasn't spicy.) There are SO many great views of the lake. Ample parking. I would definitely recommend this place and I'm looking forward to my next visit. Waitress was very kind.

Dockside seating

We had dinner on the dock on a beautiful day in May. The view was spectacular, and our waitress JoJo could not have been friendlier. I had the grilled fish tacos which were very tasty and my wife enjoyed her filet of sole. We finished our meal with a very good creme brûlée

View from deck overLake George

The main reason to come here is they have wonderful outdoor seat on a large dock overlooking Lake George. Not surprisingly, the food is middling at best. Nothing was bad, but nothing was good either. So, come here to sip a cocktail on a sunny day or pull up your boat to the dock and enjoy some lakeside relaxation. Keep the order simple and enjoy the view.

The Bloody Mary is the only good thing about this restaurant

My entree came out later than the rest of the party's. All of the food was mediocre - definitely meals you could make at home.

Love the Gem - it's another Bolton Landing favorite…read more Last time we only came for drinks, so I'm glad that we finally stopped in for a meal. Everything was really good and portions were so big. The nachos were insane. Like, could literally feed five people. If you are ordering these just be aware. They were so so good and came smothered with lots of queso and pulled pork. The wings were also super tasty and they are a variety of dipping sauces. We ordered them plain rubbed and my daughter ended up loving this - perfectly flavorful without too much heat. The outdoor area has a ton of seating and they did such a cute job with the decor. They have a fun list of cocktails, and if you come out back for drink only you can grab one from the adorable airstream. For a great meal in Bolton you can't go wrong. It's a GEM :)

We started out with the Presbyterian and the Home on the Range cocktails. Both were very good. We decided to share several appetizers. We had the pimento cheese and pork rinds, barbecued peel and eat shrimp, and the Little Gen Lettuces. All of them were excellent and plenty of food. Service was excellent. We finished with a couple local beers.

Was looking for a place that would accommodate our large family reunion group for dinner and…read moreDiamond Point Grille came to the rescue. I worked with Kat, who was very helpful in putting it all together. We were able to dine Sat night of a long weekend, although we were asked to come before 5pm, to avoid prime dinner time. Kat had me send our order ahead of time, which was a great idea so there was little to no wait. We sat at a long table in the front outdoor area, distanced from other tables. The wait service was excellent; our waitress came several times to check on us and our food and drinks came quickly. She even helped us take a group photo in front of the place! My only qualm would be the menu - it was a bit limited, and a few items were discontinued - but Kat was able to modify and make things work for us. Considering how large a group we were, I was impressed how smoothly everything went. Had a good experience and would highly recommend!

They're clearly coasting because they were on Food Network once or twice. They don't honor the signs that they have out front. (Early Dine and Happy Hour) It's very misleading. I made the owner aware of this, he gave some BS excuse that he "couldn't afford to keep doing it" but he would take them down. It's been well over a year since, and he never did.
