    We came here for dinner one night during our vacation. The food was very good and the food also came out really really fast. The service was super fast, very accommodating very very patient and caring. They took care of all of our questions and request politely and quickly. I got the Maryland crabcake and it was delicious. It becomes with french fries and you got two crabcakes with the order. We also got the buffalo chicken wings as an appetizer. They were very good and not too spicy. The restaurant over lake and you can see a very pretty view and you can also see the boats going around. They also had some live music which was very nice.

    Had lunch on the patio and it was excellent. Fancy bloody mary with shrimp and bacon, Greek salad with grilled shrimp, super crispy fries, a decent shrimp po' boy sandwich. Service was good and the views are stunning. I do think I'd order the fried shrimp instead of the sandwich next time - there just seemed to be a lot of bread and not enough shrimp. The grilled shrimp on my salad were excellent - fresh and tasted of the sea. Very nice fresh veggies and homemade dressing. A tradition in Lake George!

    This isn't meant as a dig but a few of the "on the water" restaurants are a bit rundown. These seem geared towards the tourists that are maybe more eager to get their drink on, listen to some sloppy "live music" (usually a guy with a guitar that's still struggling to learn the chord changes to The Eagles' most popular songs) and not too concerned with the food (otherwise how can you explain the popularity of Christie's?!). Then there's Boardwalk. By far the cleanest and classiest joint (with a rather large "fingerprint" on and above the lake for tables and couches) of the five or six in the vicinity. We visited for lunch and the food was ridiculously good. From a pulled-pork sandwich (too sugary-sweet for me, but my one kid dug it) to a Cesar salad with salmon (which the Mrs. devoured) to my own Santa Fe chicken wrap for (bursting with flavor and big enough that I couldn't even think about dinner that night) - no faults could be found. Solid beer list. Decent pricing. Friendly staff. And it's probably a good thing I stopped after one pint of wheat beer because I was positive at the end of the outdoor patio it was a real person that seemed to be staring into his binoculars for an unusually long time. (We'd come to realize it's just a mannequin.)

    Beautiful views overlooking the lake. The server was amazing. Our food came quickly. Everything I ordered was well-flavored and delicious. The lobster roll was heavenly, packed with tender, big, pieces of juicy lobster.

    Atlantic City has its boardwalk for gambling and the Atlantic Ocean. Monopoly has its boardwalk for fun and games. Well now add Lake George's Boardwalk Restaurant for the ultimate in Bloody Mary's , food and views of Lake George. We sat at the bar on the outside patio overlooking Lake George, what a view. Great service from the bartender and free parking with validating your ticket. Ciao for Now.

    Lake side lunching m at its best. It's a nice place on the shore of Lake George. No reservations allowed or at least when we were there. The Lagoon kind of has that Booting motif/outdoor camping pavilion all in one. The service and staff were great. Beautiful views of Lake George and good comfort food. The Bloody Mary was basically a whole lunch in itself. It's a great place to start a fun week or weekend off.

    Fast, friendly service. Great water front views with easy access and parking. Good food. Delicious red sangria.

    So we went to this place for lunch as a family. We didn't even know if it would be good but it was wonderful. I got a fish sandwich which was delicious and an excellent Bloody Mary. We were right at the water. And the people serving us were so kind and are fast with are food. If you are Lake George you should come.

    We just arrived in Lake George and stopped here for lunch. We were promptly seated outside with a nice view of Lake George. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive. The menu had salads, sandwiches, burgers and more. I got a Santa Fe wrap that was tasty with the homemade chips. My husband ordered the pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato tater tots. This was not a fancy place but good service, food and nice views of the water.

    Absolutely satisfactory. I wouldn't say that the food here is "off the hook fantastic!!".... but it is decent and the location is awesome. I don't live terribly far from Lake George and I rarely go there during tourist season. This is the first time I've ever even heard of the boardwalk restaurant...we met some friends for dinner and to check out the live music that evening. There was a private party on the deck overlooking the water, so we were unable to hang out in that area as originally planned. Live music is usually outside but he was stuck in a warm, empty (indoor) bar area. The food ordered was a combination of crabcakes, clams, salad with grilled chicken, sweet potato tater tots, a hotdog with french fries (for the little guy) and fish tacos. Again...nothing was extraordinary but it certainly wasn't terrible. The salad was huge. My clams were extremely salty and the tater tots with melba sauce were very tasty albeit a bit mushy. I like a crisp on the outside of my tater tots. Service was friendly and the views of the lake and rolling hills are terrific. There is a "private" parking lot with a decent amount of spots if you get there early enough. It's three dollars per hour after the parking ticket is validated. We walked around a bit after dinner and only had to pay a grand total of three dollars to park.

    The views are beautiful as we were sat outside. The clam chowder was ok - not sure it is made in house. My crab cakes were delicious and filling and the sweet potato tots were a different add that I enjoyed. Others in my family of 5 seemed so so on their meals so overall okay but not memorable.

    This is a great spot if you're visiting Lake George and want to enjoy some fresh air, a nice view of the lake, and delicious seafood. The service is friendly, and both times I have gone, the seafood is fresh. Would recommend the lobster roll or crab cakes!

    This is based on drinks only! We stopped in to get out of the sun and kill some time before our boat tour. Beers we're cold, they have a short list of beers on tap but many more in bottles or cans. Service was good. They do have their own parking, which is a big plus.

There are dart boards and shuffleboard table, which were not in use. Our server was attentive and friendly, as were other staff we interacted with. Beer menu is extensive as you would imagine from the name, and they also have a separate cocktail menu (but we did try). Food was very good. I had The Cask. As long as you like goat cheese, you should like this sandwich. I loved it. Other meals included the pulled pork sandwich and Reuben. All were good. The order of garlic and rosemary fries are very crispy - good for snack or just pair with some beers. Overall, decent place and service. I would return!

We stumbled in for a late bite on a quiet winter carnival weekend and there were only a handful of patrons, mostly locals sitting at the bar. The bartender (and our server) Edward was friendly and kept an eye on us and made sure we had what we needed. The food is solidly average pub fare, not bad and perfectly serviceable, but it shouldn't be your primary objective if you're a foodie hunter like me. But on a main drag littered mostly with mediocre bar-restaurants charging tourist prices for tourist indifference, I'll take "just fine" as a win. I'm not much of a drinker but my husband liked his can of Copper Legend lager so much that he ordered another one to go. The location is conveniently central especially if you're staying on Canada St. or doing activities at the lake.

The loud live music & vibes here are very 70's-80's-90's "divorced dad" with open seating for bar patrons & loud entertainment, however the staff is very young & the POS system is updated/ handheld. We paid our bill without seeing a total nor receipt right on the handheld after seeing our server a total of 3 times in an hour. (Don't worry-- still tipped 25% ;-]) The food was alright. It arrived lukewarm & after food was delivered, our server disappeared for another 30 minutes. Honestly, not the end of the world, just something to consider. The shrimp on my salad was seasoned & cooked wonderfully. The chicken tenders were chicken tenders & the kid's burger was mediocre. The prices reflect the location for sure.
