Giovanna's On the Lake, Lake George NY

Ate here (Cabana Bar) while staying at The Georgian. Of all the restaurants we went to in Lake George, this one had the best food.

Excellent breakfast buffet. Dozens of options. Great food. Great staff. Special shout out to waiter G/Jerry who was amazing!

FOOD WAS AMAZING. Only good thing:/ that’s the 2nd star - for the chef.

Can’t recommend eating here. First, they advertise happy hour 4-6 and have additional signage for the restaurant. We got there at 4: 30 and it was all locked. We eventually found another entrance and at least 7 employees who just ignored us. Eventually, someone who I think was a manager told us he just needed servers and we could be seated.

Our drinks were prepared outside and a kid had to bring them in the pouring rain inside. This happened with several drink orders for customers… but some drinks were made at the inside bar. When he brought us our drinks that got rained in, the other servers laughed at him. They also made jokes about inappropriate things. At least 7 employees just sat there on their phones… picking at their noses and faces waiting for something to do.

I feel bad because the chef killed it! Service was wicked awkward.

Also, a woman went up to the bar and asked for something, when she walked away, the two female employees and the bartender rolled their eyes dramatically.

None of them want to be there. Don’t recommend

Either they can’t hear or they don’t care. Night #1: ordered room service; Beef ribs, mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. Received pork ribs and sweet potato fries.
Day #2: went to breakfast and ordered scrambled eggs, got fried eggs and “purple potatoes”? Maybe it’s a Upstate New York thing.

Food wasn’t horrible, but sheesh! Think twice before eating here.
