“First visit was this past Thursday & we had a blast, the staff was so friendly & a good time was had & memories were made.”

“The ladies that work here are absolutely AWESOME! The food snd atmosphere is GREAT! The Cooks are excellent!!! This business is a huge asset to the area!”

“Had their Apple Mule made with their HOMEMADE ginger ale!!! Canteen wings were delicious!!! Shrimp pesto pizza was delicious!!! salad was crisp and fresh. I'm returning tomorrow!!!”

“Absolutely the best food in the area! Whoever was in the kitchen today nailed it. Best hot basil fried rice ever. The Tom Kha Gai was perfect! And the red curry is a favorite.”

“If you want authentic boba drinks, this is the place to go! I'm a big boba drinker since 7 years old! Being born and raised in Cali, I had my fair share of boba drinks. Moving to fort drum due to military life and for some odd reason I decided to stay, there were really no good boba drinks. Ju Ju and the boba store in Syracuse mall were my go-tos for quite a while, but O-OH is absolutely the best! They meet my tasting standards I had from the west side! Also they are the most caring and sweetest people! O-OH customer service is always excellent and they really value their customers! They greet everyone with a friendly smile on their face! Even when I come in upset or angry, they always change my mood and I go back to being happy! The store is literally a happy atmosphere!”

“Vito’s for the win like always! Our vet clinic gets a large lunch order and it’s always great ! Thank you guys ! -Valley Vet”

“I was a little disappointed with last night's visit (2/3/24), which is truly a first. We arrived shortly after 5:00 pm. When my wife ordered the steak sandwich she was informed that they were out of that, so she changed her order to the Reuben. I then ordered the roast pork. Five minutes later our server returned and informed me that they were out of the roast pork as well. A restaurant shouldn't be out of 2 menu items at 5:15 pm - that's a problem. That said, the food we received was delicious and our server was excellent. I've never had a bad meal or poor service here and probably never will - I will definitely be back and I can still recommend the Crystal without reservation.”

“Great food excellent service”

“My elderly uncle, his daughter, his lady friend, and I came here for a family meal, and overall it was a good meal with good service. I ordered the manicotti, with a house salad and garlic rolls, which was tasty but offered two meatballs or Italian sausages (I opted for the meatballs which were ok), and it could have used some Mozzarella or Provolone baked to cheesy perfection to finish it off right), and I did not receive any additional rolls although 4 were brought out while we waited for our drinks, of which we all ate one each. My uncle had the ziti with Italian sausages, which he enjoyed with another serving to take home. His daughter had the small (10”) pepperoni deluxe pizza, which looked and tasted good (but she/we admittedly are Art’s Jug fans!). My uncle’s lady friend had the sausage sub with loads of peppers and onions which she enjoyed. Again the food was overall good, the atmosphere is lively with families, friends, and couples, and the service was pleasant and good for a local restaurant with a long history in the community.”

“Food was delicious but they need to send people home when they are sick some guy that was working there was begging to leave cause he didn’t feel good they wouldn’t let him leave until the shift was over. He went to the bathroom multiple times vomiting his brains out. So my first experience at this place I had to hear puking sounds while I was eating it was very disturbing.”

“Fun, friendly and slightly insane. we are from out of town and we're treated as old friends. Food was fantastic. BTW, Hannah is the best (She told me to say that).”

“I ordered the red curry, hot. My nose was running while I ate. The rice was fresh. The spring rolls were crispy. This is what I wanted. They nailed it. Only wish they had some garlic naan. 10/10 curry!!!!”

“Heard great things and decided to try the pizza myself. Was not disappointed. Crust is light and delicious the sauce has an amazing earthy after taste. Highly recommend. Look forward to going in and trying the pasta.”

“Great food at a great price.

My brother and I were traveling from Canada to Cooperstown. Stopped in Watertown on the way back. I like supporting small businesses, especially the ones that serve breakfast.

The waitress was great, always offering coffee.
Had a chat with a guy eating at the counter while we ate.
Cash only, so be prepared.

I'd recommend and return if I'm down that way again.”

“John Hoover Inn has the best wings in the north country and their burgers are to die for.”

“great food well worth the price portion size is great and the staff are awesome will be going again”

“The food is excellent with big portions. Service was amazing! We will definitely go again and tell family and friends what a great restaurant it is. Best restaurant dinner we've had in a long time.”

“I had the Bibimbap and it was really solid. Fresh, tasty, and filling. The Egg Roll appetizer was the surprise hit. Definitely homemade and really well done.

The Banchan was great. I especially loved the kimchee and the pickled cucumbers.

Service was great. The lady who runs the place was handling all the tables herself and still made time to be helpful and kind.

The restaurant is clean and simple. Nothing fancy, but it’s comfortable and feels well cared for. A great spot to bring the family and enjoy good food.

I had a great meal and will definitely be coming back next time I’m up here for vacation at the lake.”
