$$$$ • Americana • Lake Placid
Jaxson's is a popular dining destination for locals and tourists alike who want to sample some of the local fare with its delicious American-style meals served in a welcoming, Lake Placid-adjacent bar and grill. Its famous appetizer, the Jaxson's hookiemelt made with chicken tenders topped with hot sauce, covered in cheese and baked until gooey, is too good to miss. Some of the specialty entrée dishes include the basil pine nut pesto grilled chicken, the blackened and seared yellowfin tuna, the sizzling ribeye and the brown sugar and Dijon baked salmon, all of which are prepared to juicy perfection. Handhelds like the jumbo lump crab cake sandwich, the shaved prime rib sandwich and the build-your-own burger are delicious and even better accompanied by a cold draft beer.Save room for dessert, when you can indulge in a local specialty, Jaxson's sweet and refreshing key lime pie.
