Stopped by for dinner and really glad that we did. It was very relaxing eating a meal with a view of the lake. Save room for dessert as they are all made in-house.

Luckily we came early enough we were able to get a spot directly on the water. Next time I would do one on the upper deck as I feel he would get a better View not just of the boats directly next to you. Service was very good. We did try the Cooperstown cosmopolitan and it wasn't too shabby. The lobster meal and New York strip meal was very good. I'd never had au gratin potatoes in this manner and they were not too shabby. The roasted broccoli was fantastic the asparagus that came with the lobster was a little Bland( next time we might ask for a little parmesan on it) and a little firm but still went very well with the lobster and the au gratin potatoes. This was a redo meal from our anniversary dinner at another establishment on the water that disappointed us so thankfully we were very pleased and we will definitely return.

A real find tucked away along the shore of Lake Otsego. The waitress (as all that we saw) was super friendly and efficient. The food was reasonably priced and delicious. We ordered batter fried dill pickles, fish tacos with sweet potato fries, and crab cake platter with asparagus and fries. Atmosphere was perfectly casual and charming. Seating on the patio or below next to the dock. Very scenic.

My husband and I dined here. The service was attentive and friendly. We started with crab cakes. No fake crab meat here. Yummy! Then we had a lobster roll with sweet potato fries and a Mingo steak roll (the sauce! So good!) with regular fries. Everything was fresh and delicious. The dessert was out of this world! We had the chocolate torte. To die for! We highly recommend it. I wish we had paused long enough to take a few more pictures. Compliments to the chef!!!

Arrived early on a summer Saturday eve and we were seated right away for a table of six without reservations. Yay! Service was attentive. Food arrived super fast. Food was good and well prepared but none of the meals we ordered were memorable except for the sweet potato fries. The view and atmosphere, however, is wonderful. Coconut shrimp, lobster roll, sleeping lion burger, shrimp wrap, steamed clams.

My TasteBuds and I were able to squeeze in a late in the season dinner at the Blue Mingo. The moon rose up to meet and casted a blue hue over the place and the food and I realized why the place got its name. For our appetizer we had the brussell sprouts. It was a delicious production of sweet, spicy and chared. It was topped with a green cilantro pesto sauce of type. Later, for my meal, I added salmon to a Red Beet Salad that had goat cheese and pecans. I paired it with an Argentinian Malbec. An unusual pairing for wine and fish but because malbecs are usually spicy I found that it complemented the bed of arugula in the beet salad. My taste bud opted for the salmon, coconut rice and asparagus dish. Unfortunately for us, the Blue Mingo will be closing for the season so the next time we will be able to have this tasty dish and cool setting will be next year. We gathered, we experienced, now you get to decide. #LOP

Beautiful lakeside location. We were there at dusk and they needed more lights as it got dark. Something for each table would be nice at least, if they can't do string lights anywhere per town codes or something. The food was very good and we all enjoyed our meals. The kids " buttered pasta" which isn't on the menu but an alternative option they do for kids is a huge plate. Fine for a 12 or 13 year old. Feeds two little ones for sure.

Outdoor seating with beautiful views of Lake Otsego. There is seating on the upper terrace deck & the lower patio level. Terrace deck is preferred for views & atmosphere , but we opted for lower level to avoid the wait. The lakeside cabin decor is so cute & rustic. We had Philly cheesesteak sandwich with fries & fish tacos with sweet potato fries on the side. All was tasty & well prepared. The service was attentive too. There is an onsite gift shop, but the lakeside views from your table can't be beat & it's just a few minutes up the west side of the lake from Cooperstown.

On our visit to Cooperstown to enjoy a production at Glimmerglass, we had a dinner at the Blue Mingo Grill. There was a 30 minute wait so we sat at a high table in the bar room. Our waitress was Lydia. She was kind, friendly, and very attentive. I had a diet and a beer. My wife had a glass of wine. I had a house salad and chicken fingers, both were good. My wife had lobster feticinni. She did like it. It had large chunks of lobster. She took the leftovers for the next day. The restaurant is on the lake with a boat dock. The room was a bit loud. The main dining area overlooking the boat docks and the lake would have been better but I did not want to wait. I think we will come back at sometime as we go to Glimmerglass almost every year. Another shout out to Lydia, a fine waitress.

Really good lobster salad. Wide range of delectable options. Unbelievable views and we enjoyed them even with the rain! Our waitress was friendly, fantastic and accommodating. The only issue was that we had a hard time finding it! Keep driving downhill. Hope they can pat more signs!

Service was great but the seats near the water were uncomfortable and I felt unsteady on the rocks - we probably should have gone up on the deck. The lobstah roll was delicious.

First we weren't given menus, then we waited over an hour for food, while watching everyone who arrived after us - get theirs. The food was good once it arrived but I gave it one star because I couldn't taste it for an hour. (See photo of where my food should have been)
