At our restaurant, we close the doors when it's time to close, if someone walks in one minute before closing they get served. We are grateful for every customer. Closing time is closing time, not when customers are done eating time.:) If our clock differs from yours , which I hope not, then let us know, it happens.

If a restaurant says it closes at 8:00 that is typically when the last customer leaves. If they served you at 7:55 you probably wouldn't have been out of there until 8:30. I can understand their position.

Not the right attitude at all. As the mother of four kids who have spent many summers as servers here in the lakes region, that's completely untrue. See GS's post below.

That's a winner's perspective.

Hi aLL,

This is Mrs. Chef Brown, I sincerly apologize. I was out of town all week visiting my Mom, this would have never happened if I was here! I will speak with the woman who spoke to you right away.

Greene's Basin Girl 09-15-2012 04:38 PM

Thanks for allowing us to hold our Forum Fest at your establishment. The food was very tasty.

Great Location and Food
 
We were at the Forum Fest today and the food was wonderful. We will be back. Loved the Chicken Terryaki sticks and the seafood cakes. :liplick: The location is tops with us with a great view of Meredith harbor.

BroadHopper 09-16-2012 10:40 AM

great service and location
 
The Ms. and I was able to make it to the Forum Fest late. Nevertheless the staff made sure there was hot food available. The staff even gave was bowls of steaming hot chili!

I ate here a few times in the past, I was not impressed. The new owners convinced me to come back. I would reccomend this place to everyone. One of the few new establishment on the lake that was worth kudos.

Orion 09-19-2012 08:40 PM

superb
 
We had lunch there today and found our new casual dining favorite. The apple-bacon butternut soup was delicious and went well with our grilled turkey gobbler sandwich and beer. Great lunch on the porch overlooking the bay on a gorgeous day. WE WILL BE BACK.:liplick:

WinterHarborGirl 09-19-2012 09:23 PM

We have stopped there twice now on the way up to the lake...Both times were superb!!! Love the sandwiches...My husband and I have gotten the same thing each time...Him Pastrami and me the Black Cat. Both excellent. Oh and the fries too. Best fries around.

It's What's For Dinner
 
I'm so happy that the Lakeside Deli & Grille has a new dinner menu which boasts dishes such as potato encrusted salmon, lemon chicken, steak, mashed potato and vegetables. They offer a new "winter salad" and several appetizers that are excellent. If you're in the mood for a glass of wine and an appetizer, do try the spring rolls (but please leave enough for me).

If quality food, creatively prepared and attractively presented, are what you're looking for together with spectacular views of the lake, visit Chef Brown and his wife Annie for dinner.

:D

Lakesrider 10-09-2012 02:28 PM

Thanks I printed that schedule out and stuck it on my fridge....:D

Bear Island South 10-12-2012 07:17 AM

Superb Dinner
 
We stopped by for dinner last Sunday and tried the Bistro Filet and Meatloaf w/ Mac+Cheese and also the Butternut Bisque. Mouth watering to say the least, the filet was cooked to perfection and so tender you could cut with a fork, the meatloaf a perfect comfort food for the fall season and the bisque was WOW, so much flavor.
Can't say enough about the hospitality, Annie is the perfect host and Jeff a top notch chef.
Keep up the good work.

Gotta agree
 
about the Meatloaf and butternut bisque, and the table service is a great addition! I've been going there since early Spring, and never been disappointed. Methinks I've found a new favorite restaraunt! :)

SIKSUKR 10-19-2012 02:31 PM

That trick or eat looks like a great idea.Wish I could go.

Denny Crane 10-21-2012 09:14 PM

It's not just another sandwich!
 
I stopped in for lunch with my boys on the way out of town last week and we all agreed our Mount Washington and italian andwiches were one of the best sandwiches we ever had! We were able to soak up the lake scenery from the front porch and enjoy a sampling of the butternut soup which we will add to our list of must haves when we go back. I can't wait to start off a future weekend visit with a seasonal brew or two, maybe try the dinner menu out, or drop a fishing line right across the street!
So many options!

Greene's Basin Girl 10-22-2012 02:18 AM

Your screen name brought back memories of Boston Legal. I miss Denny Crane!

Dinner
 
We closed up the camp this weekend and stopped in for a last dinner out at Lakeside Deli and Grille. I had the scallops and parmesean risotto and my wife chose the winter salad and broccoli cheddar soup in a bread boulle. Just delicious, cooked and seasoned perfectly. Mrs. Chef Brown brought out samples of the famous butternut squash soup..mmm....very nice. I couldn't resist a slice of chocolate cream pie that was also quite good. A perfect end to another great season at the lake. Dinner service is temporarily suspended until after Thanksgiving according to Mrs. Chef Brown due to family obligations. See you next year!

Approaching 1 year Anniversary!!
 
The Deli opened April 10th 2012!! Thanks to everyone's support we made it through the winter. Just! For the first 2 weeks in April we will have anniversary specials throughout the week. More details to follow closer to April. Just our way of saying thank you for the support during our first year in business.
Mr. and Mrs Chefbrown

Bear247 03-13-2013 04:53 PM

Thank you for the great food over the past year.

VitaBene 03-13-2013 06:31 PM

Nice place with super nice owners!

WakeboardMom 03-14-2013 05:38 PM

Great food...really, really enjoyed last week's homemade meatloaf and mac n cheese!

Happy Gourmand 03-15-2013 08:23 AM

The Lakeside Deli is a great addition to the lakes region. Fast and friendly...and great food to boot! It was hard for my to get something other than the best steak sub I ever had, but got a really great salad on our first visit last weekend.
Continued success to the Lakeside Deli and Mr and Mrs Chefbrown :liplick:

FINALLY got to the Lakeside Deli & Grille!
 
What a lovely lakeside lunch we had today! We sat outside, by the lake and enjoyed an awesome lunch. What a filling sandwich they make! -loaded with meat! I had the Turkey Gobblah, soooo yummy! My hubby thoroughly enjoyed the Ryan's Reuben! Great place, can't wait to return and try other menu items!! :)

LongBay 06-10-2013 10:04 PM

Everything is is yummy and the portions are big...
 
Having eaten just about everything on the blackboard, I have to say their eggplant parmesan sandwich is one of my favorites. My wife recently had one of the best lobster rolls ever. I know what I'll be ordering next.

MaidenCove07 06-18-2013 05:21 PM

1st visit, not the last
 
Made my first venture to Lakeside (yeah, sorry it took a whole year), and it won't be my last.
Everyone was bright eyed and bushy tailed for Monday after Bike Week.
Most of my favorite haunts were closed for some long overdue sleep and repairs so I had to venture outside my comfort zone.
I wasn't disappointed, though my order had a couple hiccups (extra mayo and cold veggies were absent), but they were not deal breakers.
We ordered their steak and cheese and a Super Beef. The roast beef was the juiciest and tenderest I've ever had on a sandwich I didn't roast myself.
The steak bomb was delicious.
I'm anxious to try some of the other items raved about here~!

lake4life 06-19-2013 07:10 AM

I've been here twice so far this year. Both times have been excellent. The Reuben is as good as I've ever had elsewhere. I wish ChefBrown the best and encourage others to try this unassuming deli by the bay.

RI Swamp Yankee 08-11-2013 11:00 PM

My wife and I ate there last year during our vacation visit to The Lake and loved it. We went back last week and were not disappointed. My wife had the tuna salad on a sub roll and she said it was the best tuna she has ever had. I had pastrami on a spinach wrap and it was excellent. Pastrami was not fatty or over salty like some places I have tried and had just a hint of that nice peppery tast from the pastrami edges :liplick: The shaded tables on the lawn with a view of the bay added to an enjoyable meal.

Note to FLL: Yes you can go accross the street and get a cheaper sandwich (and less expensive) BUT you will not get one made up exactly as you want, brought to your table by a chearfull young lady, with seating with a great view.

BroadHopper 08-12-2013 10:14 AM

Meatball sub
 
Visit the Deli last Thursday night and had an excellent meatball sub. The portion was huge, I had to take half of it home.

The Ms. had the excellent brocilli soup and ceaser salad.

This is the third visit and we are never disappointed.

Lakeside Deli and Grille
 
Stopped at the Lakeside Deli and Grille for the first time Sunday afternoon, after shopping with my wife, and was pleasantly surprised !:)

Used a $5.99 coupon I clipped-out from local paper, which bought you a pretty good roast beef sandwich on a lightly grilled bun, choice of chips & soda. How can you beat that !

We wanted to try the pizza, so ordered a combo-veggie-meat pizza, which was the best we've tasted in the area. The crust I was told, is hand-made and stretched, not those typical frozen shells, most pizza shops use. Anyway, it was the best pizza crust I've had, short of the North End in Boston.

Will definitely, be back to the Lakeside D&G soon !

Just an FYI. This should be posted under Lakeside Famous Roast Beef and Seafood located in Laconia. Thanks

belly_button_biter 02-23-2014 03:49 PM

We stopped here for lunch and everything was fabulous. Definitely the best sandwiches in Merideth

RI Swamp Yankee 08-12-2014 04:44 PM

We had lunch there again last week and it is still great. I can say the tuna in the tuna salad did NOT come from a can. :liplick:

Newbiesaukee 08-12-2014 07:06 PM

I have never seen tuna salad where the tuna was not from a can. Of course, it could be done but it would seem an unusual preparation. Please clarify for interest, not criticism. Perhaps it is salad with slices of tuna.

RI Swamp Yankee 08-13-2014 06:11 PM

Yes, I should clarify that.

We both had the "build your own" sandwich. Hers was tuna salad on a bulkie roll, not to be confused with tuna slices in a salad. It had a little mayo, a bit of finly chopped onion and celery and while it looked a bit like the chopped tuna from a can it tasted like fresh cooked tuna. We have both had the canned stuff at home but this tasted much better. Perhaps Chef Brown would be willing to share some of the secret as to the source.
