Restaurants in Corning

“Excellent food and service! Emitt our server as very attentive and didn't miss a beat! We all had a drink and an entree. We wanted to have dessert so we skipped appetizers. The 6 of us had: a burger, scallops, a pasta dish, lamb chop, wagyu and chicken with waffles plus the arugula salad. All plates were cleaned off and no complaints! Homemade ice cream, lava cake and a cannoli for a happy ending! Highly recommend!”

“Amazing barbecue! Stopped there once a few months ago, went out of our way to hit Corning just so we could go to Nickel's again. Their barbecue sauces are amazing, as are the onion rings.”

“What a delightful pizza stop. We loved the atmosphere and the hand tossed pizza. The medium was more than enough for the two of us. Plus we added a salad and garlic knots. It was a great road trip stop! Yum yum!”

“Their food is just like the Greek restaurant back in Buffalo New York. The food is delicious when I discovered tossed in my neighborhood. I was shocked and I'm glad I did not have to go all the way back to Buffalo to get all of this deliciousness. I would recommend tossed to everyone in the southern tier and beyond.”

“Food and hospitality were great! Can't beat the prices! We will be back tomorrow!”

“I enjoyed my meal here. The stout was excellent, and the fish sandwich had a thick fillet of fish, with a crunchy batter, and was perfectly cooked. The seating area was full, but it was quieter than I expected with the open, communal seating. I sat at the bar, and the bartender was friendly with quick service.”

“I would recommend this restaurant to anybody who likes sushi. Very fast service, we were eating lunch within 10 minutes of arrival. I had the sushi deluxe and my wife had a chicken thai bento box. We will certainly make our way back there on our next visit to Corning.”

“Wonderful dinner. Rack of lamb was delicious. Great wedge salad. Warm bread with olive oil and granny apple dessert with ice cream and coffee. Mattie was a delightful and knowledgeable server! Five stars!”

“Absolutely the best BLT and beef on wick we have ever had,perfect in every way, enjoyed the Museum and the art gallery in town too, a lovely afternoon,highly recommend,PaulA”

“If you're looking for one of the most unique experiences on Market Street in Corning, NY - go to VOLO! They have skee ball, shuffle board, with an exotic (to say the least) vending machine that is combined with a great drink menu and staff. 100% recommended.”

“We had dinner at the Quincy Exchange and the whole experience was wonderful. We arrived about 30 minutes before our reservation and were able to have cocktails before being seated. The Wellington and a margarita - both drinks were excellent. One of the things we liked about the bar, and also the dining area, is that you weren't packed in like sardines. You had ample space between the chairs at the bar and between tables when dining. Once we were seated, our waitress was attentive without being overbearing. It's really nice to have a relaxed dinner while at the same time, feel like you're being taken care of. On to the food - in short, it was excellent. My wife had the malfanelle pasta with lamb and I had the garganelli pasta with shrimp. Seasoned and cooked perfectly and the serving sizes were ideal. However, the deserts were the absolute highlight of the evening. We had the coconut panna cotta and the tahini chocolate brownie sundae. I think my wife had a smile on her face the entire time she was eating dessert. I would highly recommend the Quincy Exchange if you are looking for a relaxed environment, excellent service and outstanding food.”

“I think it's Corning's best kept secret. I've been coming here since I was pretty much born 34 years ago. Nothings changed in those 34 years and nothing needs to. It's perfect the way it is with great food and even better home town hospitality.”

“Prices are a bit high. Paid 20 dollars for a hot sandwich and water. A wonderful place for lunch though. They close a bit early, so check the hours. Their sandwiches are great. I recommend splitting with someone. Love the atmosphere. Very quick service.”

“This place was amazing! I have had Celiac for over 24 years and this place has made me feel included with all the food options. It is safe for eating gluten free, and delicious! My family and I have enjoyed every visit. The food is great and the staff is wonderful. Highly recommend to everyone, but especially those with gluten issues.”

“Came in for a few beers. The Orange Cream Whip they have on Nitro is great! Also loved the Gnome magnets; that instantly became a must-buy for me. Nice place with good vibes.”

“The moment we walked in, it smelled delicious, it was clean. The ambience was nice, the ice cream was good, decent prices, extremely friendly, staff and informative about the different flavors”

“Hokey Pokeys is one of the best in the area. They are so friendly and I love the old time feeling you get when going there. Everyone in my family was happy with what they got. The milkshakes are amazing!!”

“Service was above and beyond for a cake I ordered (a gluten free hummingbird cake—so good). A last minute emergency made it impossible for me to pick up the cake and LauraBelles kindly arranged a delivery for me.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free”

“Got here just before closing but the bartender still got us one! Great selection of beer and the guy next to us said the food was amazing. Bartender was great and knowledgeable about the town!”

“Hosted a private party at The Office last night. Could not have been better. The staff was amazing, incredibly helpful, fast, efficient and flexible. They worked directly with the restaurant that catered it. Beer selection is outstanding, drinks were very well done. Ambiance is perfect. I can't thank Dan and his staff enough for a really memorable and special celebration!”

“Ate here with my family in early April 2024. Service was excellent, and all of the food was delicious. We live very far from here, but will make a point of stopping here to eat the next time we're in the area.”

“First time back here in a long time and everything was great. If I had to make a recommendation it would be to go easier on the pasta tomato sauce. Definitely worth the day drive from ”

“Coffee has been dumbed down by that nationwide chain. The quality of the coffee drinks at Soul Full was positively European. The espresso was rich and chocolately enough to drink straight up,, not just strong and bitter enough to cut through the milk. The result was sublime, cappuccino as it should be. Yumm!”

“Food is always good (certainly upscaled from a typical sports bar) and even earned the praise of my MiL who'se not easily impressed. Service is a strong point even at busy times. They do a lot with limited space, and you'll find a wait at peak times even though their location is a little stroll from Market Street. The biggest challenge is finding parking. It's always available if you're willing to walk a block, so don't let that stop you from trying this place.Parking: It's rare to find a free space in the small lot and parking on the street can be tight, but a block in either direction should be free.”

“Originally went to check out the crepes. Both the Nutella Banana Crepe & the Savory Spinach Crepe were fine. We got cheesy potatoes, which were good too.The Caramel Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip bar was very decadent! No problems.Vegetarian options: Ovo-vegetarian & lacto-vegetarian breakfast options available. The bubble tea also has dairy-free options.”

“This is one of the best restaurants in the Corning area, and I highly recommend it to everyone if you plan to visit Crystal City. Very spacious, nicely decorated, and has a very warm ambiance. Good food, freshly made-to-order. The pizzas were awesomely baked. So fresh, so crispy, so light, so good. The Caprese was also fantastic in a different way. Hand-stretched fresh mozzarella on fresh tomato, and drizzled with balsamic glaze, oil, and pesto. It was a real gold and I am not exaggerating. Friendly servers and cheerful. Very recommended. Some people commented it's slow. As this is not Burger King or McD, why would those individuals expect "fast" while not going to fast food stores and paying for a higher price? Don't drink that much while typing up reviews. LOL.”

“Everything from the Farmhouse Pantry is always amazingly fabulous! Highly recommend!”

“Food was amazing. Burger was good, if you get everything on it. I enjoy the veggies. I savagely ate mine before getting a photo. My husband got his plain so it wasn't as yummy as mine. However, we also got a cheese steak which was absolutely delicious!!! The kids got the sampler and enjoyed it. They are big on food like us so it wasn't their favorite but they also loved the cheese steak. I am certainly coming back for another burger and cheese steak! 1/4 Burger was definitely enough. Service was nice. Thankfully, she was very patient with us, as my kids decided to be difficult with their cheese steaks.”

“Great coffee. Always buy some ground to take home.”

“Excellent brewery! Their Pilsner was nice a clean, but the standout for me was the Sweet Potato Stout. Also really enjoyed Hello Darkness, My Old Friend Imperial Stout as well. Great staff that was chatty and fun local vibe in this place!”

“Literally popped in to use the bathroom and thought I should do the decent thing and buy something.Well, place a great selection of tea. Bit of a fanatic of loose leaf and local roast beans and only being in town for a few weeks I'll be spending some money here.Staff was fantastic”

“The food was delicious , the service was great. The staff was beyond friendly. The atmosphere is really nice. I haven't been here in a number of years, and of course there have been some changes. All good as far as Im concerned. And the prices were not bad at all. Over all, I had a five star experience. Thank you! I'll definitely be back.”

“Honestly one of the best bar b Que restaurants I have tried. Been to great ones all over the country. The ribs were hearty, meaty, and done perfectly. The sides were amazing and the quantity is huge. Great food and very quick service. The sweet tea was even great.”

“Great local bar! Always has a good crowd of very friendly locals! Wings are great! Bartenders are always friendly and helpful! Liquor drinks can be pricey here but craft brews are reasonably priced! Always a good time! Great place to make new friends! They usually have a good bands and regularly no cover to see the band!”

“There is something to be said about food cooked with genuine love and care. That is what you will get here. It is no frills on the outside but it feels like a homecoming when your parents or grandparents would cook your favorite meal while you sit in the kitchen and chat... it's exactly that. Changing menu and fantastic food from the heart. Cash onlyVegetarian options: Small menu but still had delicious vegetarian options!!”

“The restaurant itself is t appealing from the outside, but it had been recommended to us by a local. I tried one of the many Mac and cheese options and it was awesome. The service was super friendly and fairly quick. I would eat here again!”

“Love their chicken wings bc of the sauce however they don't cut the end pieces off the wing to make it a normal flat which I don't love but nevertheless edible. The employees at corning ricos always pass the vibe check, usually good service, and I even went in one time just to ask what wing sauce they use and if I could have some and they actually let me and were really nice about it even tho I was nervous. I recommend the mild chicken wings and chicken wing sub thing they have. Their pizza is not bad either, idk about it being my favorite pizza but it is definitely top 3.”

“Wasn’t expecting to have to order at the counter, but the service was great. Food was decent (Stromboli and calzone). Atmosphere is lacking, but restaurant was clean.”

“Ordered the salad here for dinner, and oh what a huge pleasant surprise, fresh, fruit, fresh vegetables, and feta cheese, a perfect touch and complement to the salad. The dressing was just the right 1 for this salad, can't remember what it was. The servers were hopping and the crowd kept them very busy, they were as efficient as could be under the circumstances. All in all, they carried their jobs out well. The entertainment that evening was Virgil Cane and wow, WOW, such an artist, A one-man band, he can play 7 instruments very well. He packed the crowd in, wall to wall dancing and the hits kept coming with barely a break. Had a great time and hope to do it again next year.”

“I had the BEST veggie quesadilla ever here! I don't live anywhere near Corning, but I'd drive the 4 hours back to Boomers because their food was that good!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian friendly nachos and quesadillas. Choose your own fillings like black beans, pinto beans, corn, and other veggies.Dietary restrictions: Husband is gluten free and got a big serving of loaded nachos.”

“Domie was awesome. She gave me the best private and a review sticker because she has a good sense of humor. Kayla the bartender was also really good. Kept up with the beers I was buying without me having to ask. 10/10”

“It's fast food folks . It's not the ritz. With that being said food is very consistent, staff is almost always friendly. Manager is always smiling:) . It's hard to find great customer service in the fast food industry. And they are a pleasure to doordash for.”

“I had the worst day and cried my way to Burger King, and the sweetest most beautiful girl with an eyebrow piercing was so kind and so sweet to me and asked if I was okay. She’s a real girls’ girl and I appreciated that so much. The order was perfect too, but the kindness was stellar.”

“Was my first time at a Bob Evans restaurant and the experience was wonderful. The food was great, service was impeccable and the atmosphere was a delight. I hope I get to go again soon. They have the absolute best biscuits and gravy I've ever had as well as everything else that came with the breakfast I ordered.”
