Visiting Lake George for an overnite, my wife and I chose Charlie's for their menu selections and reasonable pricing. We were pleasantly surprised with both the high food quality and friendly, efficient service. Seated outside at a comfortable table we shared an excellent crab cake with our cocktails. The 'Lake George Punch', was very nice. Our server, Jack, was on his game & could give lessons on on unobtrusive high quality table service with a smile and some pleasant conversation. The pulled chicken tacos and crab stuffed haddock were both excellent! Flavor, texture, doneness all top notch. We were caught up in the details of sauces, rice, and wonderful harcort verts (can't just call them a side of green beans). Unexpected in a hotel restaurant in a touristy area. All in all, with the July evening breeze blowing off the lake, a slice of lake view, and the bustling fellow visitors putting on a show just for us.... It was a very nice experience. read more

Charlie's was fine! We didn't realize it was the restaurant in the Marriott when we found it online, but that was okay. Our server Eugene was lovely and helpful. However, food came out very slow. Nachos were good and we enjoyed most of our entrees. Someone else had the rib eye which we would absolutely not recommend. Upon further review, we all felt that the food was a bit salty, but worked in a pinch when we were hungry. Overall, just okay. read more

We went to breakfast there twice. Both times the service was terrible. Two different servers, both were inattentive, almost invisible. There was no interaction with the guests. No drink refills offered. It was so bad that we got up and got our own refills from the servers station. Portions were small, toast was cold. You get the picture.... We won't be back. read more

Visited Lake George for Labor Day Weekend and was pleasantly surprised with how good their wings were. Early into my LG visit, I tried another restaurants 'Award Winning' Chipotle Bacon Wings. After trying Charlie's (very unique!) Raspberry Habanero wings, I recommend that the Award Committee reconsider the award recipient to Charlie's!! Unique, delicious, with a kick. Couldn't stop thinking of them! The Calamari, Flat Iron Steak, and Tenderloin Tips + Gnocchi were also really good, but the wings were the star for me. Service was great as well, and they were able to answer all the questions I had (sorry for being so annoying - promise I'm not that picky!!) Highly recommend, even if it's just for the wings! Although it's not needed, Good luck Charlie's!! read more

We stayed at the Marriott for a conference, we got in late so most things were closed so we ordered to go and brought it to the room. We got the Chicken & sausage a la vodka and the BBQ Mac and cheese. We wish the person who took our order warned us about the size, we each got one to share and they each could actually feed probably 4 people. The container were also too big to fit in the small refrigerator so we had to throw it away. The bread sticks were over cooked. The food itself was okay, I definitely would recommend going somewhere else because everywhere else we ate was much better and lower priced. read more

Do not understand why when paying almost $40 for an entree I couldn't sub out mashed potatoes for the rice pilaf Not happy but yet the table behind us could get fries instead of a vegetable. Think our server stank. Ended up getting something I really didn't want. Will never come back read more

We went here for a sit-down breakfast and it has a great view. We opted to sit inside, and it is actually part of the hotel. Our waitress was excellent. I have small children, and she was very patient with them. My 4-year-old stated this was his favorite breakfast place, which is a huge compliment. They did not have kids French toast so he ordered the adult size and proceeded to eat all of it. I ordered an omelet and it was excellent. A great breakfast spot! read more

We used to love this place. Definitely went downhill. Not sure if its just peak season or a new cook but very disappointing.... Foods just not what is used to be and my wife found hair in her food. And $52 for a breakfast burrito and avocado toast. Crazy read more

This poor rating does not include Caleb our waiter. He was great and I'm sorry he has to work there. My wife ordered the 6 ounce $45.00 Filet mignon, medium, with well done sauteed onions and mashed potatoes. Steak was served with bleeding raw center and all but raw onions. She requested it be cooked better. Plate was removed and then returned with just the potatoes and requested she wait for re-cooked food. Really? Now she's sitting there with a plate of squashed mashed potatoes and some of the uncooked onions. However, she was still willing to wait. But then I started to cut into my $42,00, "12 ounce" Rib Eye, medium steak. Was also bleeding. I could tolerate that but not the fact that is was NOT anywhere NEAR 12 ounces (about the same size as my wife's 6 ounce steak) and the first mouth full consisted of fat, and strings of gristle. Along with the second and third mouth full. In the meantime my wife STILL hadn't received her dinner back. I told Caleb the dinner was unacceptable and we were leaving. I spoke to the manager who apologized but didn't offer any other solution but that they were re-cooking my wife's steak. No compromise or reduced bill. I told the manager to be grateful that I would still pay for the dinner so as not to cause a problem, escalate the situation and upset my wife and ruin our vacation, as I tend to be nasty in such incidents. I still left Caleb a generous tip. Worst meal I've had in years. Wish I could rate it no stars. They should be VERY grateful ! My most helpful tip is DON'T GO THERE IF YOU WANT A GOOD STEAK read more

So the pulled chicken tacos were good but the service ruined it. Waitress was basically non-existent and would walk right past our table and go to the table next to us. Never asked how our meal was, never got a refill on my drink. Couldn't even leave a pen to sign the receipt. Definitely the worst service I've had while vacationing at lake George. Outdoor vibe was okay. read more

We went to Charlie's as soon as we got in Thursday morning for lunch and were seated quickly. Disappointed they didn't have cocktails yet as they wouldn't have a bartender until 4pm for dinner, but got over it. My boyfriend had the jack daniels burger and I had the grilled chicken sandwich both were very good and a good size too. Loved the outdoor seating just wished they spaced us out between tables. Difficult to have a conversation without overheating everything the table to the right and left were saying. read more

This Lake George restaurant is located in the hotel. I'm glad it was because I didn't need my coat. We visited in the offseason so we didn't really need to use open table. The food was amazing!!! Just wow. The nachos were so good. Wish this place was closer. Hubby loved his burger Staff was very friendly Cool bar area If we are in the area we will definitely go back. read more

So truly enjoyed the many lival shops and restaurants around lake george. But one stands out for such great food and service and that is Charlies! Both my wife's Chicken Marsala and my chicken parm was exceptional! Tucked inside the Marriott courtyard so don't miss it. read more

This place was pretty good! It's part of a hotel but you can find it easily on the boardwalk due to the outside seating. Service was great and the drinks were decent but not strong if that's what you're into. We split a bunch of things but my daughter ended up getting a burger. The fries were awesome! We also split the nachos and they were so good and loaded to the gills. It was a beautiful evening and very relaxing sitting outside. I will definitely return! read more

All I am saying is everyone on our table enjoyed their food enough where all we did was offer food to each other. The french onion soup was good. Filled with softly cooked onions & oregano in the broth which gave it a unique flavor compared to others. I ordered a swordfish, rest of family had a burger, salmon & a salad. My first couple bites were dry but ended on a good note. Enjoyed the cajun flavor and the rice and vegetables filled the plate up. I ordered a Affogato for dessert and it was outstanding! Everyone at the table had a bite and had that look as if they should have ordered one. For a hotel restaurant this is a good one. I can vouch that a lot of these reviews are accurate. I can see how some people think the staff is poor; my aunt wasn't thrilled with the bar tender, although the host was very friendly to us as well as our server. The wait time can very. It took a while to get our table but we were in no rush and enjoyed drinks at the bar table and good conversation. Be sure to call and make a reservation. I would come back and try their breakfast. Making an effort to try new places every time I come and visit the area but would do dinner again too. read more

Stopped in for lunch and sat outside on the patio. The chairs were actually pretty comfortable and our waitress was helpful. I had the almond crusted chicken sandwich which was tasty. I would definitely recommend stopping in and trying that out if you're in the area and looking for food. read more

For a hotel restaurant this place is great for anytime of day. Had breakfast, and lunch here, great pancakes and the unexpectedly best chicken wings in the area ( from the places I've tried) service was great also. read more

We had a fabulous experience at Charlie's. The hostess saw we were on a girls trip and said "I have just the server for you ". Our server Lilly was fun, polite, and gave great service.. Everything was delicious. I had the salmon which was perfectly cooked. This place a great for a date night, girls trip, or to bring the kids. We will be back. read more

Beet salad and veggie burger were great! Not sure what other commenter was talking about with bar hours. I ordered a beer at 1pm. This place is a great alternative to overpriced and subpar food on the boardwalk. read more

Came here for breakfast and just expected it to be better. It wasn't the worst but wasn't really anything memorable. Go to the lone bull instead :P it's a hotel restaurant. read more

We're locals, and there are not a lot of options for dinner and drinks in the off season. But the service at Charlie's is beyond terrible.

I'm a local guy right here in the southern Adirondacks and I took my wife to this restaurant. We had a good time there. The food was awesome. Awesome service was good. I do recommend it. The ambience was very good. read more

Thank you to Charlie's for helping redeem our Lake George dining experience. After a few other lackluster meals in the area, we enjoyed the salmon and brussels sprouts, chicken marsala, bottle of wine and the blueberry cheesecake. read more

We passed this placed countless times coming/going to our hotel and it was always busy (being attached at the hip to the Marriott surely helped) so we decided to give them a shot for breakfast. Menu was limited. The coffee was bitter. Per the usual when you ate outside in Lake George: there would be that one damn bee that made sure to come by and buzz around just to bother you. Otherwise... the avocado toast would've made NYC proud with its Instagrammable presentation and the Mrs. said the flavor was there to match. One kid complained that no butter was offered with his French toast. I dug my pancakes with (not enough) strawberries. Staff - incredibly friendly and efficient. read more

I want to start out by saying I would give it 3.5 stars For a hotel establishment it wasn't bad. I didn't know it was part of a hotel when I made the reservation. I generally avoid hotel restaurants but was pleasantly surprised at this one. We were on our way to upstate and needed dinner so this place looked good judging by the reviews. I thought it was solid but not a 4 star. Being attached to the hotel, the size was good and tables were spaced apart so that there wasn't a lot of echo. It had decent ambiance. I had the Lake George punch to start and it was a bit sweet compared to many rum punches I have had. My meal included a side of salad and it was good. The balsamic vinaigrette was really good. My wife had salmon and I had a strip steak with two shrimp (surf and turf). Both meals were were cooked properly. My steak was a bit more medium than medium rare but not bad. The baked potatoes were a little dry but not bad. We ordered sour cream on the side and got mayonnaise on the side...LOL. The veggies were quite nice Our server was super good which gets this place the half star up versus a rating of 3. Value was good as well which is always important to me. Definitely give it a try read more

Charlie's staff was great! Our waitress Rebecca was fantastic! Her recommendations were spot on! Wife had the salmon, daughter had the braised beef Mac and cheese and I had the NYStrip.. for appetizers we had the French onion soup loaded pierogi and the calamari.. all exceptional. For dessert the layered chocolate bomb(exclusively recommended by Rebecca) and the blueberry cheesecake and for drinks the Tito's blueberry spritz and the Ithaca flower power ipa.. and for me a double espresso with a shot of sambuca on the side for dessert. Everything was very good, but the experience was enhanced with the guidance of our waitress Rebecca, beautiful evening dinner on the patio! Was the culmination of a great stay in Lake George NY! read more

Sky, our bartender and server was great! She is a gem and should get a raise! Our burgers were ordered cook at different temperatures and came out perfectly. The place was beautiful. It was the best dinner we have had in Lake George Village. read more

Today we went to this restaurant everyone was so kind and helpful. We were late to are hotels breakfast service so we were trying to find I place to eat. Which we came around to this place. They are open with breakfast until 11:30 which I love. We will be coming back to this place!!!! read more

I very much enjoyed my dinner here tonight. Service was great, my cosmo was good and not overly sweet. Food is solid. Spinach and artichoke dip was good, but could have used more cheese. The seafood Alfredo was delicious and creamy. Also loved the garlic bread it came with. The portion was also big. My fiancé had the clams and mussels over angel hair. He liked it, I thought it was pretty good, but I liked the Alfredo more, I'm picky with marinara sauce. I would definitely eat here again when staying in lake George. read more

We stopped here for a light lunch as soon as we arrived in Lake George. It was close by to our room, and we were too early to check in. The place was quiet for lunch, but sounded like breakfast was a busy time. We shared some spinach dip and a turkey sandwich with fries. Our server, Vincent, was friendly and nearby if we needed them. Our view from the table was pretty, being right across from the lake. First off,my husband was disappointed that they carried Pepsi products rather than Coke. But he ordered a root beer. It was served to him in a glass with ice, but from a bottle, left on the table. He joked that he could've brought in his own bottle of Coke. Anyway, we decided on what to order. The spinach dip had a sharp taste. We think it was over powered with Asiago cheese. It wasn't terrible,but the chips were a bit stale. Luckily the sandwich was delicious! The turkey and apple sandwich was tasty and buttery and warm, served with crispy fries. It hot the spot without getting us too full for dinner later. Maybe we just ordered the wrong app. But over all, it was a decent stop. read more

Let's be honest: chain hotel restaurants by and large are pretty mediocre. Which is why we ate at Charlie's with low expectations. Happily, we needn't have -- this is one restaurant that came up positively. We ate a couple of breakfasts which were ok: two eggs with potatoes and meat ($11) and eggs and corned beef hash ($16). The prices are about par for what you'd expect at an in-house restaurant like this. We liked our efficient, friendly servers. Dinner was a different story; we enjoyed a really delicious meal of grilled peppercorn swordfish ($34) -- moist, not over-cooked, with a tasty viegre sauce -- along with a zesty French onion soup, a crab cake that was genuine crab, and some good seared medium rare tuna. It was a fine meal, and our server added to it with her good humor and attentiveness. Based on our dinner we'd call Charlie's among the best restaurants in this area. read more

We were staying at the Marriott Courtyard in Lake George and saw the menu when going to our room. Glad we did! The restaurant is very nice and the food and service were great! We tried the Bourbon street shrimp and scallops and seafood Tuscany. They have a nice speciality drink menu also. read more

Place has a very nice atmosphere and location is great right on the main strip of Lake George village. Good food options and staff is very friendly. Best of all (for us) their steaks are HALAL!!! The supplier they use is known to be certified halal and we just ended up calling on a whim and the guest hostess was able to confirm it for us before we knew who their supplier was. So glad she knew and we were able to have a nice family meal for the birthday girl. Looking forward to visiting again and hopefully their steaks stay halal for others with religious restrictions to enjoy another dining option. read more

Celebrated a birthday at Charlie's with my husband. His 'Classic Cobb salad' was outstanding, unfortunately my chicken Marsala was very disappointing. Disappointment is 'chicken based'. The Cobb salad was served with a generous portion of nicely grilled chicken. The chicken portion of the chicken Marsala was missing in action (MIA). Difficult to discern more than a minuscule chicken portion in the dinner as my plate was overwhelmed with onions and sauce. Conclusion, get the Cobb and avoid Marsala. Had dinner following evening at Caldwell House, GO THERE. read more

After a disaster of a first dinner at a different restaurant, we didn't have high hopes for the food in general in Lake George. Thankfully, Charlie's came through. We ordered take out, which we don't normally do while on vacation, but due to extenuating circumstances had to. The order was correct all around which often isn't the case on a larger order. Kids pasta (one with sauce and one with butter) were fine. Decent sized portions. Chicken and sausage alla vodka was very flavorful with a fun shaped pasta. The salmon was cooked well and had good flavor. The steak tips were more like beef with broccoli from a Chinese restaurant and wasn't a favorite. The Cobb salad was very good. Didn't need dressing with all of the yumminess packed into it. It's likely even better when dining in the restaurant. A solid choice when staying in Lake George. read more
