Howard Johnson's Restaurant Lake Placid

I have made it a habit to eat here as much as possible. Although I may be a sucker for what they serve here, I think they do it very well. They have a menu which fits a broad spectrum of tastes and includes some foods which you sadly can't really find on popular menus these days. My personal favorites which I can remember off hand are: Hot Open Roast Beef Sandwich 3D burger Food bar Fried Clam Strips On some nights, their specials include barbecue ribs and prime rib; which are both excellent choices. This is a family run establishment and it is clear they have a good deal of pride in both their enterprise and their role in the community. The servers are usually very friendly. My only warning is that a few seats are directly under the A/C vents, so you may want to wait for the perfect spot to open up. If you are new in town or just stopping through; try something you'll never forget. If you are from around here, but haven't stopped in for a long time, give it a shot; they wont let you down.

Was served raw chicken, returned it, had them return 2 minutes later after microwaving it. Stay classy Howard Johnsons in Lake Placid NY. NOT RECOMMENDED

Good American food at reasonable prices with efficient friendly staff.

We had a very good meal
