We enjoyed our recent dinner at Chemong Lodge. Our server was friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the French onion soup. The restaurant manager also checked in with us, which was a nice touch.

Because of a special event, all remaining tables were packed into one room. With all the noise, kids running around ( shouting out when they had to poo) etc. it was more like being at Chuck E Cheese or a sports bar. Obviously, the restaurant can’t control its customers, but cramming us into a small area of the restaurant was certainly not a fine dining experience. I wouldn’t recommend going there if there’s an event happening and you want the regular menu. The food and service were good, just not worth the money for that kind of experience
