Been coming here for drinks for a while now. However i noticed typically on mondays a certain female bartender named laury had a hostess doing all the work that she didnt want to do while she would have long conversations with other patrons at the bar or disappear somewhere. She would have the hostess clean the whole bar (including the resturaunt areas and tables) fetch patrons drinks when she felt like she didnt want to, serve food and bus tables, clean the bathrooms, as well as many other tasks hostesses are not required to do. I have stated many times how good of a worker she is and suggested many times to make her a bartender where she can make decent money (with tips) for college since she has already been pouring drinks for some time. I was told it was in the plan. Ive even asked to have her pour me drinks now and again so she can learn more about the trade. However tonight I was blatantly and aggressively called wierd by the bartender for the suggestion and i demanded my check right then and there. After i demanded my check she again in an aggressive manner said "She is a hostess not a bartender!!" Then had the audacity to tell me to drink the drink that she poured for me and told me to tell her why i was upset. Look, if she isnt a bartender than why are you having her serve people for no tips? She should be getting just as much if not more than you. Thats absolutely disgusting. For most competent people im pretty sure it was self explanatory as to why i wasnt to happy. Most bartenders here are very generous and hardworking. This is not acceptable behavior for anybody in customer service and it should be delt with accordingly. Of course this will be my last time coming here. Very unprofessional on so many levels. I will not speak negatively about any other bartender here as service has usually been top notch. Its sad how the attitude of one bartender can bring everybody else down with her. Laury or however you spell your name... Its clear you are a drama seeking, mendacious person that takes advantage of this hostess and you obviously get very defensive when she gets any kind of...
Read moreSo I called and ordered takeout. I’ve had other Reuben sandwiches around town so I figured I’d try theirs. Needless to say it was definitely under par and I also ordered some nacho chips or should I say nachos… when they told me how much it was I didn’t think much about it. It was over $40 anyway the next night I did like the nachos when I called and place the order over the phone she told me. The total will be 44 that was for an order of nachos and an order of buffalo cheese Rangoon’s I couldn’t understand why the bill was so high I figured I would check it out when I got there now I know so they charged me $17.99. You may as well say 18 and they asked me if I wanted meat with it and I thought normally. It would come with beef of some sort usually ground beef that’s what I wanted and they charge me an additional seven dollars. For for Buffalo dragon, they charged me $16.99 You might as well say it was. $17…. paying a lot of money for certain things if they’re out of this world or at least top notch for the money, they charged me they definitely did not meet the great food line… never again will I order from there I don’t like when restaurant or any business tries to take advantage… and I could swear that their menu online did not have these prices just a little note…. so I just checked the online prices. They are definitely different than what they charged me again I will say that for a restaurant to deceive the public is unfair and ridiculous. The prices on the online are three dollars cheaper and when you called to order, they add all this additional money check for yourself if you...
Read moreFitzgerald’s has changed a lot over the past couple of years. The interior has been upgraded for the better aesthetically. Unfortunately, it’s all at the expense of patrons, literally and figuratively. The food has gone from really good pub food to poor-to-mediocre blah bar food. The prices have increased exponentially and Fitzgerald’s is now THE most expensive restaurant of its type in the Lake George region, with appetizers that range to more than $20. The funny part is, Fitzgerald’s is in Fort Edward, NY… many, many miles away from Lake George, and there’s absolutely nothing happening in Fort Edward, and yet they charge more than the restaurants that are actually in Lake George Village where everything is located. My advice is this; rather than spend $15-$20 on a ho-hum appetizer and then about $20 on a basic burger at Fitzgerald’s, go down the road to the Log Jam Restaurant where for the same price you can get a nice steak or prime rib and a really good all you can eat salad bar, all in a great log cabin lodge atmosphere. In the cold weather months, they even fire up their many beautiful fieldstone fireplaces. Or, just go to Mickey D’s, you’ll leave with regrets, but it won’t be the regret you’ll have paying Fitzgerald’s prices for...
