    Great views of Adirondacks
    Philip C.

    We stopped in for lunch after visiting the Adirondack Museum. The outside is an old fashioned dinner car. We were seated immediately but had to use a booth for 4 for the five of us. We got menus and the young people in the table next to us offered to let us have a small table because they could slide over. The menu had a nice selection of wraps sandwiches, burgers and all day breakfast. We had chicken and Steak wraps and a cheeseburger and grilled chicken. The wraps came with fries or onion rings. We ended up with an extra of onion rings for no charge. The steak wrap was large burrito size and had a punch of flavor with mushroom cheese, and garlic. The rest of the table enjoyed their meals and shared the extra onion rings. I was a great meal and experience. Picture is from the museum.

    Is it a trip to the Adirondacks without a visit to this iconic treasure nestled in Blue Mountain Lake? No. I don't think it is. Chef Darrell is an artist, and each visit is a culinary delight that never fails to leave us full & happy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you are ever in the ADK region, you've got to check this gem of a diner out![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or even just stopping by to satisfy a sweet-toothed hankering for dessert, you can't go wrong with this chef's incredible menu.

    Service was quick, but food was not served warm and Eggs Benedict had too much sauce on it. Very little amount of home fries and potatoes were not crisp or warm either. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Surprisingly the bathroom was very warm and toasty compared to the dining area which was quite cold, and had kept my jacket and beanie on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Was a bit disappointed in overall experience and would not come back.

    My favorite place in the Adirondack park! Chef Darrell is one of the most hardworking, most personable people I've ever met and he strives to give you the best experience possible. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is always booming so please just be patient with them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food never disappoints. A must stop!

    The food and service was unbelievable! Came a little early after watching the sunrise and Darrell and staff were more than happy to open the doors early and feed us. The eggs Benedict and pancakes were delicious and we took dessert to go! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute inside![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    The worst food my family has ever had as a collective experience…read more Came here during a trip to Long Lake. This place has the best ratings for local restaurants and the Long Lake hotel was quite expensive. Wish we would have went there. Ordered a pound of wings for appetizer for table. Eating them along made me wish I didn't come. All the bones of the chicken broke as we ate them, and they were rubbery as hell. Pretty sure they were cooked from frozen, and they tasted disgusting. I got the full rack of ribs. They were OK flavor wise, but the meat was tough and had to be pulled from the bone because it wasn't soft. The "sauce" that came with it was gross. My older son ordered the pulled pork Mac and cheese. He said it was disgusting and could barely finish it. He said it tasted old and microwaved. My youngest got the kid's pasta. The sauce tasted like straight up vodka and was weirdly watery. He enjoyed his "homemade" Mac and cheese, though I'm not sure how homemade it was. Tasted like boxed Mac with shredded cheese added. Finally, my wife had the feta cheese dip and miso soup. The miso soup was fine, she said, but the feta dip--or white water, as she called it--was also disgusting. And to top if off, we paid $112 to eat what we did. We will NEVER be back to this place. Try elsewhere. This place will only disappoint.

    Your run of the mill corner restaurant in a predominantly seasonal town. My partner and I came here…read morefor a quick bite and being that this place was literally 10 minutes from our Airbnb, we're glad we did. The portions of their food are ginormous. We ordered poutine and chicken drumsticks for our appetizers (which easily could've been an entree). Our main course were burgers and they were delicious. Greasy but delicious nonetheless. There isn't any much going for their decor but their food more than makes up for it. 2 appetizers, 2 entrees and a beer added up to $56 which is awesome. They do have a full service bar as well! Definitely stop by if you're in Indian Lake!
