The best kept secret in the lakes region. The 1800's charm of Schuster's and the Gunstock Inn just adds to the experience here. My girlfriend and I came up for a dinner cruise on the Mount Washington and a romantic getaway at the Gunstock Inn. After checking into our room we decided to go with the front desk recommendation of prime rib night at Schuster's. Well we did it and the applewood smoked prime rib was absolutely out of this world delicious!!! It was coupled with a twice baked potato and sauteed vegetables. We finished the meal off with a fabulous chocolate mousse truffle cake. Our service was excellent and the prices are reasonable. After seeing the buffet food on the dinner cruise we were so glad we ate at Schuster's. We have actually stayed an extra night at the Inn and tonight I had a 16 oz ribeye steak and my girlfriend had the grilled swordfish. We are in love with Schuster's and the Gunstock Inn!! I can't believe anyone would write a bad review about this place. If you want the Ritz Carlton go stay there. If you want classic New England charm, excellent service and amazing food stay here.

Excellent food! Great choices for vegans, vegetarians, or other. My favorite meals were the vegetarian ones (mixed vegetable bowl was the best!) , but all options were very well prepared (shrimp, steak roulade, salads, flat breads.) Variety of alcoholic beverages that were unique and very enjoyable. This would get 5 stars but for the length of time to serve the food. It comes out family style to share, but for a large group such as ours, the time to prepare the choices was lengthy. That's because it is all freshly made, but it did make it difficult with a toddler, despite the very accommodating staff. Will definitely go back!

This restaurant fits into the category of average. The food is average, okay, not great. Pizza is pretty standard.We did a family event recently and somehow the waitress didnât focus on the kids table first. So the kids (10+) started coming apart at the seams. Itâs such a rookie mistake. Note to waitresses: feed the kids first, no matter what.Second, give everyone water. Always. Donât ask, just bring it.I thought the bartenders were good.This could be a special place but I think it caters to diners who donât know the difference.

After having 3 drinks we were asked to leave!!We visited as a family, mum dad, daughter and future son in law, told the server we were there for the evening, ordered some drinks and some food, the nachos were average at best, the tenders dry and over cooked. We then asked for another drink and were astonished that we were only allowed 3 alcoholic drinks each as it was a family restaurant!!We were a family that had walked 15 minutes in the rain to celebrate Fatherâs Day with a few drinks and a bite to eat.The manager, Kylie,was extremely rude and asked us to leave, at 9.30pmOverall, an awful experience at a restraunt with poor staff and average food. I suspect that the only reason it stays in business is because it is the only bar/ restaurant in the area.We have been visiting from the UK and thought this would be a nice last night of our holiday. How wrong we were!!Hello and thank you for reaching out. As with all of our guests, your safety is top priority for us. We apologize that you felt this was unjustified but our staff is only looking to do the right thing. We would be happy to discuss further if you could email us at [email protected]. Thank you.

A lovely culinary experience showing the talents of an ambitious highly trained chef. The location alone is worth a visit. The restaurant is in a photogenic and beautifully restored vintage train station. Service was impeccable. We had a delicious wild mushroom soup. My wife had scallops on a bed of pumpkin risotto and I had a Caesar salad with grilled swordfish. Textures were great, the swordfish was cooked the right amount. Personally I would have liked a little more salt in the mushroom soup and on the fish, and maybe a little less dressing on the salad. The croutons were whole slices of French bread, which made them a little difficult to eat. But I am picking at fine points in a fine restaurant. I heartily recommend a visit.

Stepping into this dinner is like a trip down memory lane. We went there for lunch and our favorites turned out to be their warm meatloaf sandwich, burgers and BLT. The service we received was excellent.

We had a wonderful lunch today - tasty food and excellent service. For appetizers we had the O Pops (which are my favorite) and my companions raved about the Crispy Duck Lollipops. Once again I had the grilled steak tips and they did not disappoint. The price is very reasonable at lunch time for the quality and quantity of food. I think the mark of a good restaurant is consistency and not having been to O's in quite awhile, I was thrilled that the food and service were as good as I remembered. Thanks to Kim for excellent service once again!

All 3 of us had the fish and chips - we all agreed it was the best! Breading was so thin and crisp. Haddock was fresh and flaky. The fries (chips) were thick cut slices (circles) instead of shoestrings. So good. They asked if you wanted bread (we did) and it came out as a mini round loaf - crusty outside, soft inside. Server was very friendly and quick with drink refills. We left our card there and when I called back to check, they offered to mail it to us (we weren't from the area).WE love to hear this! Thank you. Hope to see you again next time you are in town!

Our first time eating here and enjoyed it very much. I had the French Dip. It was on toasted panini bread, sliced beef with caramelized onions and melted cheese. My husband had a Reuben that he said was delicious. Both came with fries. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. We look forward to returning.
