![]() She said he’s a phenomenal restaurant owner who learned from one of the greats – his dad. We comment on the new build of lakefront homes and the increase of people we see in the area.Ĭyndi credits Louis for their success. She said Lake Harmony has exploded with tourism, and we can see it whenever we’re there. They get many visitors from the Wilkes-Barre area as well. Their customers are a mix of locals who live in the area year-round, people who have vacation homes at the lake, and tourists. ![]() All of their restaurants are open year-round. She also told me, while business used to be more seasonal, there’s now no particular downtime. In speaking with Cyndi recently, she mentioned they’ve had to reduce hours due to challenges with staffing all of their restaurants. ![]() It’s obvious that Louis, Cyndi, and their families care about the guest experience. I think the success of this restaurant has a lot to do with the involvement of the family. Cyndi can be found most nights greeting guests and checking in with tables. Her daughter was working that night as well. She’s authentic, funny, and sure to bring a smile to your face. Theresa, Cyndi’s sister, was our server on our last visit, and she is a one-woman comedy show. Our favorite bartender/waitress, Dana, is friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming to all. Through the years I’ve been dining at Louie’s, I’ve noticed there is very little turnover in staff in this family-owned establishment. While I love the atmosphere at Nick’s, listening to live music and enjoying cocktails on the deck, I prefer the quiet charm and delicious food found at Louie’s Prime.Īlthough the food is the star of the show at Louie’s Prime, the staff are some of the best at any restaurant I’ve frequented. Nick’s Lakehouse has a massive deck overlooking beautiful Lake Harmony, which is ideal for laidback outdoor dining. While Louie’s Prime is more of a relaxed fine dining establishment, Nicks and Shenanigans are more casual with a spirited atmosphere that includes live entertainment. On our drive around the lake to Louie’s Prime, we pass the always busy Nick’s Lakehouse and Shenanigans. A long-time resident of Lake Harmony, Nick opened two restaurants/bars on Lake Harmony Shenanigans and Nick’s Lake House, both of which are still thriving today under the management of his son and daughter-in-law. Louis learned the business from his dad, Nick, who passed away in 2007 at the age of 72. Owned by Louis and Cyndi Pantages, Louie’s Prime is a go-to spot for a casual dinner at the bar with friends or a special occasion. Louie’s is in the site of one of my former favorites - the Close Quarters. I’ve been going to Lake Harmony for as long as I can remember to enjoy the scenery, activities, and restaurants. Louie’s Prime has a cozy, rustic atmosphere and warm hospitality that feels like home. Located in the midst of the beauty of Lake Harmony is a restaurant I love. ![]() Seafood lovers may enjoy this Cajun Shrimp Tostada dish with avocado corn salsa, grilled pineapple, coconut lime sauce. ![]()
