During our little adventure to Lake George, we visited Caldwell House Restaurant & Martini Bar for dinner. As soon as I walked in, I loved the atmosphere. It was warm and cozy, especially on a chilly night like it was Friday night. The decor was very tasteful and I loved looking around at the older decorations that reminded me of stories my mom would tell me of her childhood and her growing up wit...

Day 84: A Walk A Day 📍 Caldwell House, Glennifer Road, G78 4DU 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Hidden in the woods near Lugton, Ayrshire, lies the haunting shell of Caldwell House—once a grand 18th-century mansion designed by the famous architect Robert Adam. Built in the 1770s for the Mure family, it stood as a symbol of wealth and power for over a century. But by the 20th century, its story took a darker turn. In 1927,...

Reviews Summary

Caldwell House Restaurant is celebrated for its cozy, high-end log cabin ambiance and superb surf-and-turf cuisine, particularly the prime rib. Guests frequently commend the attentive service and signature martinis. However, some diners have experienced inconsistencies with food preparation and value for money, with occasional remarks on dishes not meeting expectations.

"We had an amazing experience at this steak house! It had a great atmosphere, delicious food and very friendly staff. Nikia was our server and she is probably the best waitress I have ever met, she was very positive, very attentive and made great recommendations for our whole family. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal and a wonderful experience."

"We went for my birthday Dinner. Food was not very good. Prime rib was old reheat, Crab legs were over priced, rice was horrible and baby carrots still had white on them. Lamb was good. Mashed potatoes were just smashed reds. We don't think they had any butter or cream in them. Stuffed shrimp were filled with plain old bread crumbs. French onion was ok. Drinks were good. Very expensive. Pass on this place. We won't be going back. 😔"

"Visited the area from Indiana. The restaurant was adorable. The waitress was excellent. The food was “interesting.” Husband ordered sirloin, med rare and it was cooked well done. A bit dry. His lobster was good. I ordered the pork shank with blackberry glaze. I couldn’t eat it nor the mashed potatoes due to the glaze over them which did not compliment anything. And the onion rings over everything was a no for me. Our friends, 1 ordered a chicken pasta dish which was just ok. The other ordered t-bone and it was fine, cooked according to the request. Salads were good, bread was very bland. The crackers and spread were delicious. All of the drinks were spot on. I’d say it’s a gamble to eat here which was so disappointing since it had all the ingredients to make for an excellent experience."
