My family and I have been vacationing in Lake George for a week each summer for the past ten years. While Lake George is known for its great family atmosphere and activities like The Great Escape, the choice of good restaurants is limited. One restaurant that we have found to be consistently very good is Porreca's. It is a small,... more

Last week when dined at porreca’s and everything was lovely. The location is just north of Lake George village and it was sure worth the visit. My husband had the rack of lamb special which was delightful. I could not make up my mind so I chose three small courses instead of the traditional appetizer and entrée. The service was... more

Within walking distance of the village. Nice looking place inside. We had breakfast. Excellent pancakes and coffee. Home fries were "gross" to quote my wife. Service was pretty quick and friendly. Would eat there again. more

After reading all the great reviews this restaurant received we made sure it was our first stop when we got to Lake George. We should have kept driving. The only good thing we had was the bread and butter. We were six people and only got a few pieces of bread. I think we each had one piece which was... more

I'm a big fan of this restaurant. I've also had the experience of looking for tasty, creative food while in the Lake George area and have struck out several times. As a Foody and as a Brooklynite (where food is good and we know how to eat it) I couldn't think of a bad thing to say about Porreca's. The... more

We were disappointed in the small menu selection and small portions. I ordered the beef short ribs in pasta and there was barely any filling, and way too much dough. We wouldnt go back. more

We went to Porreca's with big expectations. I had read that the food was excellent and well prepared. The place itself was attractive, so we were hopeful that the food would match the atmosphere. The portions were small, and barely adequate. The mushroom risotto cakes were tough, but tasted ok. My meal, which was a pasta dish with pancetta, ricotta,... more

The quality of the food there was extremely good! We had Mushroom Risotto cake for starter, monk fish and shrimp pasta for entree, chocolate mousse for dessert. Everything was fantastic. This is the best Italian restaurant I have ever had even if I live in NYC. The waiter's service was very good too. The environment was cozy , neat and... more

This place was amazing! I was in Lake George this past weekend for a quick getaway with some friends from Orlando and from Canada. We nearly went past this place but decided to pull in and try it out. So glad we did. The reception was great. The service was great and personable. We were laughing with the staff in... more

This was the best meal we had during our week in Lake George. The atmosphere is casual but the food is definitely upscale, however the prices were in line with all the other restaurants. We loved the homemade pastas and the desserts were amazing. They were very accommodating to the kids and the staff was extremely friendly. One warning, the... more
