Just a shockingly delightful find on the outskirts of the main Lake George Village strip. Who would…read morethink you could turn off the strip, walk up two blocks and find a cozy, wonderfully apportioned Irish-style pub slinging up quality cocktails and nice pints of Guinness in a lovely environment. An oasis in the true sense of the word, you walk in here and enter a specific and unique world in this bar. The bartender made me an absolutely perfect Negroni, and my cousin enjoyed the specialty cocktail from the drink menu. Solid wine and draft options and a quality Guinness pour and, again, immaculate vibes in a classic Irish pub kind of way. As I understand the food situation, they have one house dish for the evening on Sundays, for as long as it is available. I have not experienced it but have heard raves. But that seems secondary and supplemental to the bar experience here.

I was tossed between four or five stars. Not only was the food delicious, but the atmosphere was…read moreinviting and comfortable, the service was excellent, and I'm hoping others will also discover this off the beaten path location so that it continues as a successful restaurant. We had 6pm reservations for a party of four, arrived about ten minutes early and were seated immediately. The other couple in our party had previously been here and were curious if what they ordered then would be on the menu again. Apparently, the menu is updated weekly. Starting out with cocktails, I know everyone was happy with what they were served. I certainly enjoyed my pint of Coffee Stout, and my wife was pleased with the lavender non-alcoholic cocktail they concocted for her. Because the servings being delivered to other tables appeared to be quite large, we decided to pass on appetizers, in spite of some of the apps sounding rather unique, e.g., Crispy Deviled Eggs, Open Faced Fried Pork Wantons, and Fried Carbonara. My wife was tossed between a Beet Salad with Scallops and the Pistachio Encrusted Chilean Sea Bass. At our server's recommendation she chose the Sea Bass. It was served with corn puree, confit potatoes (which my wife especially enjoyed), and roasted tomatoes. I'll get to enjoy the leftovers. I was trying to make up my mind between the Duck Pot Pie and the Chestnut Mushroom & Boursin Stuffed Tomahawk Pork Chop when our sever alerted us that there were only two servings left of the Pork Chop. I promptly claimed one of them! I am so glad I did. It was an amazingly delicious and well prepared dish. The pork had a slight pinkish color, just as I like it, the meat was so tender and flavorful, the stuffing had a crisped surface from the oven or salamander, everything was wrapped in tasty pancetta, the smashed potatoes were creamy and delicious, a white wine truffle sauce added another level of flavor, and even the carrot spears had the right level of firmness. I can affirm that my leftovers were equally enjoyable. We were not as lucky in having advance notice of the limited availability of a limoncello pie dessert, so my wife and I shared a slice of Banana Cookie Dough Pie. OMG! That was sooooo delicious. It was light, creamy, and not overly sweet. A real treat with the good coffee they serve. That pie along with something from their Lighter Menu, like a burger, would send you home in ecstasy without putting much of a dent in your wallet. Our bill for the party of four having one round of drinks, entrees, and desserts was about $250. Taking the whole dining experience into account, it was a very fair value. But wait! I have more to share with you. On Saturday nights live entertainment is provided by an excellent keyboard player adding to the inviting dinner experience and atmosphere. Great live, unobtrusive, background music is always a plus at dinner. Got a request? Art Mozeik will likely oblige. Even if you'd like to hear a song on an accordion instead of his keyboard. Find your way to Broadalbin, N.Y. for dinner. You won't be disappointed.

I absolutely love the Saturday entertainment (Art) and the fact that the lead chef and sous chef make it a point to come out and greet the guests when able. This high end restaurant offers high end meats, and seafood products that are exceptionally prepared for a fraction of the price compared to high end restaurants in NJ and NY.

Parking: Use nearby Saratoga parking lots. Tips: Arrive early! We got there at 4:50 (opens at 5) and the line was already out the door. The space inside is cozy, so getting a spot early is key.

We met friends for dinner at Cleome with very high expectations due to lots of positive chatter…read moreabout it. The bar area and wall garden are extremely cool. It's a fairly small space so definitely make reservations if you're planning on going during busier dinner hours. Service was decent - it was a little confusing and disjointed at times but I chalked that up to some inexperience (the server seemed a bit green) and that it's a fairly new restaurant. We had read somewhere that it was small plates - more like tapas...but then was explained that it's "family style". This is what caused said confusion at the table since "family style" to the four of us meant large, sharable portions. So, we just ordered a bunch of stuff in waves since we didn't really know how much food we were going to need. Some items arrived quickly, others took a very long time. Standout dishes to me were the Brussels sprouts and the apple cobbler dessert (which I just had a little taste of). I found some of the accompanying crackers odd - I think they were Ritz brand or something like that? We did request a few gluten free crackers and were brought a few. The swordfish was on the dry side - that's a tricky protein to get right. The fried chicken was served as cutlets - so some of the items were more difficult to share vs. others. The shrimp salad cups were somewhat unremarkable and a bit too loaded with mayo (in my opinion). The shishito peppers were nice - I think I was the one at the table that enjoyed those the most. We did linger at our table for a long time - a combination of wait times and good conversation with friends. We never felt rushed or pressured to leave (there wasn't a wait or line for tables). All in all, we had a nice time at Cleome and will likely give it another try at some point - now that we know what to expect

Three entrees: Tried the Lobster Mac and Cheese again and it was MUCH better than previously reported! That was great as was the fried chicken- soooo good. My burger unfortunately didn't arrive until after everyone else at the table was done with their meals. Oh bother.... it tasted meh and it's clear they are using a very low fat ground beef which made the burger more like a tasteless hockey puck. Still, everything else was wonderful and the background music was audible and made the experience even better. The Egg nog cocktail we had at another visit a few days before was delish. Despite my burger, we were please with our experience. I can only hope that they reconsider their low fat ground beef for something a little more tasty and juicy. Recommended.

LOUNGE MUSIC IN A LOUNGE: Look it up: The range of lounge music encompasses beautiful music-influenced instrumentals, modern electronica (with chillout, and downtempo influences), while remaining thematically focused on its retro-space age cultural elements.

I was initially under the impression this would be a whiskey bar, but it is more of a speakeasy cocktail bar. The atmosphere is just right for that. There isn't a list of bourbons/whiskies, from which you might select pours, but the wide variety of bottles are readily visible from the bar and nearby tables. The focus here is on the crafted cocktails. Not only are they good, but they are SMOKY. The majority of their crafted cocktails feature smoke of some type, and your drink is smoked right in front of you. I went with Rosemary's Baby, which was a variety of Old Fashioned infused with smoke from a large sprig of rosemary. This is a great addition to downtown Glens Falls, and someplace I'd definitely visit on return trips.
