Beautiful place and view conveniently located in the middle of town. BBQ was AMAZING! We ordered the brisket and the ribs. Brisket easy top 3 best brisket I've ever had but the ribs were by fat the best ever. Even the sides were delicious. Highly recommend this place we will be back.

Honestly, this place is underrated. Very good food for a very good price. Service was a bit slow but it was very busy, so I am thankful we were able to get a table. I got babyback ribs and it was soo good! We had kids with us and they had activities for kids which was also nice.

I see why this place is packed every time we visit Lake Placid, the BBQ here is awesome! The restaurant is also really beautiful inside with amazing views, and the service today was great. We had what was probably one of the best pulled pork sandwiches and pieces of corn bread ever. We couldn't recommend Smoke Signals highly enough. It's one of the nicest restaurants to visit in the Lake Placid area.

My husband and I ate here for our anniversary and loved it! The waterfront view was absolutely stunning, and the service was excellent. We ordered the duck fat garlic parm and maple BBQ chicken wings, which were crispy and full of flavor. We were very impressed by the portion sizes of our main courses. I ordered the Ruben, and he ordered the beef brisket, and both were some of the best we have had. We will definitely return next time we're in the area.

This place is great! Absolutely beautiful out on the deck. Servers and hostess were very sweet and friendly. The food was excellent! I had the brisket gyro and it was enough to fill me up but I wanted 3 more because it tasted sooo good!

First time in Lake Placid and this place didn't disappoint. Got the brisket and OMG was it huge and delicious. It could have been a meal for 3 people to share and pricing was very fair. Highly recommend going here. All meats are smoked in house to perfection. Can't wait to go here again and try other meats.

My favorite place to eat in Lake Placid with a beautiful view, very friendly staff, nice atmosphere and I had the best rib eye of my life here, it was a special so not a regular menu item but so amazing! the blue cheese and onions were perfect. My son got ribs and wings and soup and loved all of it. This is a great place to eat after a day of skiing when you need a big hearty meal with lots of protein to feed those muscles!

Honestly it was absolutely amazing. I have eaten a lot of wings in my lifetime and these are the best I have every had. Smoked with the house bbq Just wow. Got the nachos with pulled pork. Those were delicious as well. The service was excellent. Absolutely top notch place. The prices seem steep but after eating the food i was happy to pay them. The whole place was amazing. Absolutely beautiful and had a great view. Very nice outdoor seating area , we did not get to use it because it was cold and raining but next time I am in town I certainly will try. I would have to call this a "must stop" place in lake placid.
