“ Serving up a delectable, eclectic array of Carribean and Southern Soul Food inspired dishes, Our Plates is an unassuming gem in the heart of Saranac Lake. The proprietor and staff were warm and friendly, and provided generous portions-- some of the best fried chicken we've had in years, with delightfully tasty accents like Yuca fries and plantains. The only downside to "Our Place" is that we'll be hard-pressed to try eating anywhere else next time we're in town! ”
“ Absolutely delicious authentic Dominican food. Everything was fresh, savory, well seasoned and clearly made with love. Certainly a hidden gem in the Adirondacks and would definitely recommend and will be back soon! ”
“ We had the Cuban Sandwich and the Bistec Encebollada. The food tasted so good, well seasoned, and completely authentic Dominican food. By far, the best food I had during my stay in the Adorindack Mountains. ”
“ What a great meal and experience we had at Our Plates. The owner chef and waitress immediately made us feel right at home and promptly served up delicious healthy meals, all for a very reasonable price. We loved the stewed and jerk chicken plates as well as the roasted pork and corn waffles and fried chicken. We'll be back! ”

“ LOVED it! My friends and I came and loved our food so much we ordered even more for takeout. The loaded tostones with shrimp is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! The housemade passion fruit drink was sweet and delicious as well. Service was also so friendly! Will be back every time I’m in Saranac Lake! ”
“ Delicious Caribbean food, especially the empanadas! Everything we ordered was very flavorful. The shrimp and grits were amazing as well as the fried chicken with rice and beans and collared greens.
