Took over an hour to get served, ordered a burger, fries were cold, told the server and somehow got a replacement of hot fries ... in 3 minutes. Place has seen better days. Mens room needs some TLC Read more

We dined here on a Sunday evening while on vacation with family. The view was by far the best part of our experience. We dined ... outside, however on a trip to the restroom inside, we found the dining room and restroom to be in a dilapidated state. The menuwas small, drink selection small, and most importantly, the food was very disappointing and portions small. We were expectingfine dining, however we were met with flavorless risotto, a hair on the scallops, and watered down cocktails. The service wasadequate, but not spectacular (we understand it is hard to find help in the current climate...). Do not recommend thisrestaurant. Read more

We took scallops and risotto,,, as if the chef really used all the salt ? too bad because it would of mad a good difference?

Amazing food to match the beautiful views of Lake Champlain. Appreciate the attentive service/accommodations - especially from ... server Hudson and bartender Caleb. Thank you! Read more

The Westport Yacht Club Is Open

June 13, 2018 By Geo Davis Leave a Comment

Have you heard the rumor? It’s true. The Westport Yacht Club is open! What a thrill to experience this local summertime institution back in full swing.

A couple of tasty weeks into the summer 2018 season I can confidently say that Emily, Scott, and their enthusiastic team are off to an outstanding start.

Thank you for a wonderful opening weekend! xoxoxo ⚓💙 #westportyachtclubny #westportyachtclublakechamplain #wyclc #westporteats #westportdrinks A post shared by Westport Yacht Club, NY (@wyclakechamplain) on May 28, 2018 at 2:34pm PDT

After a one-season hiatus (Bernard and Rosemary Perillat retired and closed Le Bistro du Lac  in the autumn of 2016.) this spectacular lakeside dining venue is open once more. Welcome back, Westport Yacht Club. We missed you.

Westport Yacht Club Backstory

It personally pleases me for so many reasons to celebrate this new chapter at the Westport Yacht Club (WYC), not the least of which is that I’ve known Scott Brankman and Emily Farnsworth-Brankman for decades. I’m 100% confident that this dynamic duo will transform the Westport Yacht Club into one of the hottest dining destinations on Lake Champlain.

Yes, I’m biased. But mark my words, and soon enough I’m confident you’ll agree with me.

It seems like yesterday that we were all teenagers and twenty-somethings living and working what we imagined were the best summers of our lives. (Who knew that summer would just continue to get better and better and better each year?!?!) I personally recollect working as a lunch and brunch waiter for Drew and Linda Sabella, the now retired chef/owners of  Anthony’s Restaurant & Bistro in Plattsburgh, in the mid/late 1980s when they were running the WYC. Ah, nostalgia…

Scott and Emily have similar memories.

We’re so happy to be back in Westport and so grateful for the amazing opportunity of running the Yacht Club… Both of us worked in this building (Scott with Anthony’s and I with Le Bistro) when we were in our early 20’s. And, we’ve worked in many other restaurants in Westport including the Inn on the Library Lawn, Westport Hotel and Westport Country Club  — where we met and got married! (Source: Emily Farnsworth-Brankman)

Chef Scott and his bride have deftly if unintentionally invoked nostalgia for many of us by returning to the original name. Despite Bernard and Rosemary running the restaurant for decades as Le Bistro du Lac , many of us have never quite been able to break the habit of calling it “The Yacht Club”.

Finally we’re back in sync with reality.

But there’s more than the sweet meat of memories fueling my enthusiasm for Scott and Emily’s new and improved Yacht Club.

Westport Yacht Club Reimagined

After almost two decades serving traditional French bistro fair, the menu will evolve to reflect the bounty of local food and beverage options being produced in our community. As a chef Scott Brankman is weaving fresh local ingredients into his vision of fusion American cuisine. And the result is exceptional.

Currently WYC’s local food and beverage purveyors include:

• Rolling Hills Farm , Westport (Pork)
• Spring Brook Farm , Westport (Maple Syrup)
• Sue Sherman via Bessboro Shop , Westport (Jam used in cocktails)
• Bessboro Builders , Westport (Flowers)
• Juniper Hill Farm , Wadhams (Vegetables)
• Dogwood Bakery , Wadhams (Sourdough Bread)
• Reber Rock Farm , Essex (Chicken)
• Champlain Valley Milling , Willsboro (Flour/Grain)
• Springbrook Hollow Farm Distillery , Queensbury (House Spirits)
• Saratoga Farmers Market , Saratoga Springs (Rhubard and Vegetables)

Emily explained to me that they plan to continue expanding this list of local sources as the season progresses.

Our food menu and Signature Cocktail list will change and evolve through out the summer as different ingredients come into season. We always want to keep it fresh and interesting! (Source: Emily Farnsworth-Brankman)

Not only does this bode well for diners, but it strikes me as an incredible opportunity for local farmers, beer and wine makers, food and beverage artisans, etc. I’m thrilled to see our community working in concert at yet another local eatery.

Here’s how the new restaurateurs describe their Westport Yacht Club restaurant

The restaurant, a long-time favorite of Lake Champlain boaters, first opened as a private club and was transformed into a public restaurant in the 1980s. Emily and Scott have family ties to Westport going back several generations. They currently own and operate Braeburn Tavern in Saratoga Springs, NY. Chef Scott’s seasonal menus specialize in American cuisine, drawing influences from his experiences in kitchens from Colorado to Boston to Southern California. Emily brings over 20 years of front-of-the-house experience to developing a creative drink menu and global wine list as well as managing a loyal team whose family-like dynamic provides uplifting service. Growing up, both owners have once worked Summer jobs in the Westport Yacht Club restaurant. They are looking forward to coming home and making the space their own. (Source: www.westportyachtclubny.com )

And everyone I’ve spoken to about the newly reopened WYC shares their optimism and enthusiasm.

The menu changes daily, but here’s an example from Wednesday, June 6, 2018. (Click image to enlarge.)

And to whet your appetite further, check out three recent dishes:

Hungry? In order (as you click through the slideshow) those dishes are:

• Lobster Toast, Homemade Brioche, Sherry Butter
• Crab Spaghetti, Basil-Ramp Pesto, Lemon Bread Crumbs
• Burger, Vermont Cheddar, House Steak Sauce, Crispy Onions, Homemade Chips

Reservations, Pre-Theater, Docking, Etc.

A few final thoughts before I sign off and let you head down to dinner at The Westport Yacht Club.

Starting in July, WYC will host a “Ledge Hill Brewing Night” on Wednesday nights. Ledge Hill Brewing Company  owners Mathew Brankman (Chef Scott’s brother) and Emma Gibbs will supply their freshest beer of the moment, and Scott will create an à la carte tasting menu to pair. They plan to start serving the beer and bites pairing at 5:00 PM until they run out.

Emily recommends reservations (518-962-8777) for everyone, especially on Depot Theatre nights and Ballard Park events — “the earlier the better, as everyone will most likely want to dine and depart at the same time” — but she reassured me that walk-ins are always welcome. If you decide to eat at the WYC on a whim they “will be happy to accommodate.”

Emily pointed to that they have even added some “funky, casual seating on the side deck off the bar where people can enjoy a meal or sip a cocktail.” So, if you decide to swing by without a reservation, you just might have a really good excuse to try a WYC Signature Cocktail while gazing out over one of the finest views anywhere in the North Country.

And don’t forget, boaters are welcome. The docks will be fully usable as soon as the lake finishes retreating.

The food is insanely good! Prices are cheaper than almost any seafood restaurant on the strip with this quality. Bartenders are amazing. There's gaming. I won on the machine and my stomach won too. Lobster bisque is a must! Salmon topped with king crab I'll be back! …

Overall rating

I'm kind of a bit confused as to why this place has such a terrible rating. My husband and I are staying at treasure island and decided to try out Yacht Club for dinner tonight. The food and service were great. We would dine again if we stayed at treasure island

We tried items on their happy hour menu. Everything is $13. Crispy Calamari - nothing special. The jalapeños give it a little kick -- if you eat one. The lemon aioli just tastes like mayo, and the marinara sauce was fine. Bacon wrapped shrimp - just okay, nothing special. Lobster bisque - bland Steamed clams and mussels - the broth had a little kick to it and was not tasty, and we got like 6 clams and 6 mussels. It came with an "Olive Garden" breadstick Yellowfin tuna poke - this was good! The tuna tasted fresh atop edamame and avocado, and the fried wonton was crispy Crab cake - two small crab cakes. These were okay except they were cold in the middle. Nothing special and not worth $13. So . . . we should have walked a little further and ate at Popeye's.

The Las Vegas Yacht Club opened last November in the space formerly occupied by the Seafood Shack and Mojito Bar at the TI Hotel and Casino. It appears they upgraded the menu, but not much else. The restaurant's décor is the same as the Seafood Shack's. Craig Taylor is the Executive Chef at the TI. Let's be upfront, the Yacht Club isn't a high-end seafood restaurant like Eddie V's, Ocean Prime or Oceanaire. But it does serve delicious comfort food in a casual setting that would appeal to a local family or out-of-towners. The $65 average tab per person, might make sense on the Vegas Strip, but seems a tad high for families. Service is really important to me. It's more than taking our order and checking in. For example, does the server build a relationship with our guests, do they provide outstanding menu knowledge and recommendations. Unfortunately, our Yacht Club server didn't excel in those areas. We had some hits and some misses with our dinner: - The broth for the Saffron Mussels had an odd taste, almost like a low-quality white wine was used - Caesar Salad was awesome, a large portion of romaine that can be shared easily by two or three diners -Sea Scallops with Angel Hair was another large portion, super rich and filling - Fish & Chips is another classic on the Yacht Club menu, with plenty of beer battered cod for the largest appetite - The pan-fried Salmon was dry and bland - Street Carrots is a creative name for a side, but it failed to attract much interest from our group If I make it back, I'd order one of two signatures: Seven Seas (with lobster meat, clams, shrimp, mussels and scallops in a lobster tomato broth) or the Seafood Risotto (clams, shrimp, mussels and scallops).

We had a reservation on Open Table months prior to holiday. Got there and were given a table with a weird configuration. I went to the manager, I believe named Jordan or Julie, and was told that when you booked, you didn't request a particular table, like that's even a thing. She was rude and uncaring. Then we ordered and 3 of the 4 dishes had shrimp in them and each dish tasted funny from the shrimp. He took the shrimp out, waiter took it back to the kitchen. No comment followed and no manager came to apologize or offer an explanation. We continued our meals and ordered 2 deserts which AFTER were complimentary. Still no manager for an explanation. Worse place to eat in Vegas. Definitely not worth the high prices.
