Jakes on the Water - (Near Potsdam, NY)

Quinn Granger Let me start off by saying my fiancé and i’s experience here was amazing! From the second we got there we were welcomed by the very kind hostess and led to our booth right by the bar we had a great server as well we both started off with soups, the tomatoe soup for me has always been a staple here ever since I was young. I haven’t been back since 2017 ish and the tomatoe soup is as amazing as i remember it! My fiance got French onion and that was fantastic as well both had great flavor and were both a great temperature. Then we had the surf and turf, and the rack of lamb. Both were great and the way both dishes were layered and set up were amazing. The sides were well flavored and different from other restaurants in the area. We both got desserts. The molten chocolate cake and the apple pie. I haven’t been this excited about a restaurant in a long long time. The service the food and quality is something I look for. This place outperformed my expectations. I absolutely will be returning! And the small dish portions were a perfect size after the soups! Again a absolutely phenomenal experience!

Mathew DiGennaro This place seems to have some regulars and caters to the hotel crowd. Cool to see! I had the appetizer size of the mussels and the Indonesian noodles without any protein. This ended up being a rather balanced meal. You got a good quantity of mussels, and the curry they were served in was fantastic! The noodles were also just what I wanted after that, served in a smooth bowl that made picking them up easy! Out of the other things I saw people order, I think I chose two of the best. Plenty of high end top shelf drinks too! Appetizer mussels, noodles, and a beer was $51 after tax before tip.

Judy McInturf We enjoyed a lovely dinner at West End Cafe. We began with steamed mussels in a tarragon-infused white wine-garlic-tomato sauce, followed by a refreshing prosciutto & arugula flatbread, baby ice iceberg wedge salad, and perfectly prepared beef short ribs. Our server, Katie, was friendly, helpful, and efficient.

Teresa Bernardi We went for my partners 30th. Very friendly staff, the stewed squash with goat cheese appetizer was delicious. I got the snow dance chicken… Perfectly juicy with a crisped skin. Melt in your mouth good. My boyfriend got the Bavette steak with broccolini . It was perfectly cooked and very flavorful.

Eve Durante Il Toscano has been one of my favorite restaurants for over 35 years, and they remain unmatched. The food is always exceptional-fresh, consistent, and full of flavor. The service is warm, professional, and makes you feel like family every time you walk in. Its rare to find a place that maintains this level of quality for decades!!, Il Toscano does it effortlessly. Definitely one of the best dining experiences. Its truly timeless gem.

David M Monastra We had a fantastic time on our date night. We did "The Big Night Out." Which was amazing. The whole experience was just out of this world. I havent been here in over 10 years but its just as good as I remember if not better. The add ons for dessert are totally worth it but not necessary. We added the three with cheesecake, and macaroons. It was so good. But even better than that was the service. Cassidy was warm and welcoming. She took ol her time with us but it wasnt slow and we didnt feel rushed. Would definitely come back here again and make sure you ask for Cassidy and to get the bees tea its an amazing non-alcoholic beverage. Thank you again cassidy and everyone at the melting pot of white plains!
