Is this restaurant open?

A question like that begs the next question. In general? Ever? For breakfast? Do they ever close? Have you checked their website or Facebook pages? Whoooops. That was a whole bunch of questions. I'm a Grumpy Guide today. Welcome to Saranac Lake.

are you open on christmas?

Better call them

If you are a local or just visiting SL the Down Hill grill is a must have! The food is amazing! The French onion soup was one of the best I have had. As well as the Ruben! My wife had the buffalo chicken salad that was great. My son built his own burger which was delicious! Even with the modified menu there was more than enough to choose from and it was all cooked to perfection! Thank you for your dedication to the community and to providing incredible services!

Can't seem to get in. Waited at front, unacknowledged, for over 10 minutes so we left. Or, if we try to come around 9pm, they're always closing up. Late-night food???

Have eaten there before and had a good meal. This time, the mashed potatoes were from a box and were stale. Brisket was too salty and greasy, and portions were very unequal around the table. Entrees arrived 5 minutes after appetizer. I give them three stars only b/c my last experience was good.

Enourmous chicken fajitas was delicious and worked as 2 full meals! We ended up here as they had more seating than other small places in Saranac Lake and we're so glad we did! Will be returning :)

I have been to Down Hill Grill several times over the last few years. The food, service and menu are generally quite good. The menu is quite varied and you can have a choice of several just simple sandwiches to full entrees. I would definitely recommended you try this place.

Everything was very good. There are so few places in Saranac Lake to eat you have to stand out to stay in business. We hope you will be there the next time we come up.

Waited 60 mins. Food was subpar. Got 3 orders of prime rib expecting med rare. All came well done. Waitress was great, but was very disappointed in the kitchen. Good for wings and burgers, but failed with prime rib.

Very nice menu (including some Mexican!) with great comfort food; good beer selection; and as the menu says it's not fast food, so don't expect to be in and out in half an hour.

We must have caught it on a bad day b/c our experience was not good. The waitress was not very attentive -- didn't quite ignore us, but almost. Hostess sat us at a dirty table and actually asked me if I wanted her to wipe it down. Parties that arrived 20-minutes after us ate 15-minutes before us. My hamburger bun was actually stale -- rock solid -- toasting it did not hide the fact that it was stale. We had to tackle the waitress for drink refills. They brought our appetizer, but no plates with which to eat it. The bill had $30.00 worth of drinks we never ordered; easy fix I know, but even still, good thing I checked the tab before I paid. The one great report -- the fries were great, but my burger was so dry I had to drown it in ketchup to eat it. All-in-all, probably the only time we will eat there.

Typical family oriented grill with a winter sports atmosphere. The food is ok - no humongous portions - and on the average price. I do not know if it was today only but we had to wait for our food for over 45 mins. A bit long.

Food wasn't the greatest. Brisket was very fatty, no flavor. Kids had chicken tenders, nothing special. It was a cute place, very busy when we were there. Server did his best. Food just wasn't very great.

Great location and family friendly. Lots of bar food options: the simpler your order the better it is. Occasionally have wished it was cleaner. Seems like a good bar too but i haven't tried that yet.

Great restaurant with great staff. Got queso and steak fajitas. Queso wasn't my favorite (not very creamy)but wasn't bad, steak fajitas tasted like they were cooked in a crockpot not grilled, so I prob won't try them again, too mushy. Bartender was really nice, mixed some good drinks. Next time I'm in town, I'll definitely visit again and try some other things on the menu.

I wasn’t expecting anything amazing since I went in for comfort food, but the food was barely a step above fast food. A cheeseburger, onion rings with a beer and tip was $25; it was a total joke. Food tasted like it came from Hardee’s and the staff wasn’t very friendly.
