Food is just so-so and service is slow. I wish we would've been checked on a little more often. More

We sat outside and enjoyed the Thursday evening fireworks from our table, which was great. They have a large menu and the food was tasty but average, as was the service. The atmosphere was definitely a very vacation-authentic experience, and would be great for families or groups. I don't know if it would be worth it to eat inside though,... More

We summer in Lake George regularly. We tried this place once several years ago, and it was so-so. So we tried it again. The seafood was good; seemed fresh. Our server spoke with a thick foreign accent, so we missed out on the menu explanation, which I over heard from the table next to me. He was attentive but rushed,... More

We were so hungry that you could have gave our family almost anything and we would have been satisfied but the food was that bad that I decided to write a review. Its a shame because so many people on vacation probaly walk out the way we did and shake our heads. I had lobster it was very dry. It... More

Food was ...ok but service was Great!! Good tiki-bar atmosphere. Corey was a great bartender, very attentive & Andy was the best waiter all weekend. Perfect place to go start the evening off with a drink, fun light atmosphere. Also family- friendly. More

``I`m sorry``, that is what the waitress told us each time she forgot our plates, served the wrong dressing, forgot the additional plates for kids... the worst service ever even by the owner at the bar, 20 minutes to get 2 apple juice (at $7.50) and a bottle of wine. Maine lobster is good but all fried seafood taste the... More

This was the second time eating at this restaraunt. First time was ok but this time...not so much. The broiled seafood plate was horrible. Shrimp smelled rotten and the rest was not very tasty. The lobster was ok but a little overcooked. Service was decent, however. Really don't think I would return. There are better options in town. More
