Fairground Inn Family Restaurant: Authentic Italian Dining Experience in Watertown, NY

Great dinner location! We sat at the bar. Bar tender was on her own, so service was a tad slow, we didn't have anywhere to be, so it was no big deal to us. Salad was very fresh and the homemade dressing was excellent. Great cut of Prime Rib! Restaurant was extremely clean, everyone was very friendly and seemed to enjoy working there. Will definitely be back for another visit.

Right when I walked in I could tell that the atmosphere was friendly. They have a nice variety to choose from on their menu. I looked around and immediately noticed that they give out some pretty nice sized portions! I ordered : HARBOR MASTER SANDWICH 12.99 Thinly sliced prime rib, sautéed onions and peppers, and American cheese on an Italian bun and onion rings on the side. Delicious!!!

Great little place to go to. The food was good I wish I got something else. The burger was probably not the best choice. Still good just not great. The chili was awesome!

Haven't been in over 20 years since leaving Watertown. Place was packed on a snowy afternoon. Everyone's food was delicious and the staff was excellent. We has 6 people, but they got us right in. Highly recommend. But if you live in watertown, you know!

My husband and I had a last minute date night here and overall we enjoyed our meal here. I ordered the Bleu Burger and he ordered a pizza. I was really impressed with the way my burger looked and with how much cheese they put on it. I ordered it medium and I would say that it did come out somewhere between medium rare and medium. The patty itself could have used some extra seasoning but after adding a little salt it was great. I upgraded my side of chips to onion rings. They were very thick and while they were cooked well they were not very flavorful and needed a hit of salt when they got out of the fryer in my opinion. My husbands pizza looked amazing and tasted amazing with a little Parmesan and red pepper flakes on it. When we come back (and we definitely will) it’s gonna be for pizza! The pricing wasn’t bad at all and the restaurant itself is in a great location. The booths are very cozy and the music playing was a bit loud but it was fun to listen to a bunch of music that came out while we were in high school. Christmas decorations were still up on the ceiling but I don’t fault any restaurant for that until February. Our server was extremely nice and attentive. She never let our drinks go below 1/3 full and she checked in on us regularly to see if we needed anything. I wouldn’t say this is a place I would come back to on a date but it is definitely a spot for us to bring the kids for some pizza.

The staff is very friendly. The food is always excellent. They have lots of choices for all dietary cravings. They have huge portions. The prices are VERY reasonable. The restaurant is clean. They always have lots of daily specials. They make you feel like family while you are dining there.

Our food was great and came out so quickly. We got the chicken parm sandwich and bbq burger. The restaurant was so cute. It was decorate for the fall! (And clean!!) Our waitress was attentive and (total bonus) incredibly patient and sweet with our toddler. We will definitely be back.

One of my favorite places to eat. Food is always amazing, staff is very friendly. Would highly recommend!
