New American Restaurants near Chautauqua, NY

“We just had a phenomenal dinner at Intermezzo and we could not be more pleased. The service was the best we have experienced in Chautauqua ( and outside of CHQ). The specialty cocktails were all delicious and well crafted. We had an appetizer of tuna tacos that was huge and flavorful. One of us had the shrimp “cargots “ (also a app)which was accompanied by two huge slabs of bread for dipping. Two of us had the shrimp and grits which was divine. One person had the buratta on focaccia and it rocked. I had the pizza of marinara, truffle oil, mushrooms and cheese which melted in my mouth and it had cauliflower crust that was the best I have had. The wines were also great. To top it all off, it was comparatively inexpensive to other places on the ground. Totally worth a visit.“

“Just had the pork snitzel with red cabbage and potato pancake. Amazing!!“

“We ordered lunch entree salads, a chopped salad one with grilled shrimp and a burrata and peach salad with grilled salmon. Both were grilled perfectly. A lovely table on the porch overlooking the lake. The service was a little slow—we were seated for 25 minutes at the table before any waitstaff came—but they made up for it with attentiveness thereafter. Food is much improved!“

“We've been going to Guppy's for years. ALWAYS great food & service very attentive, the drinks are also good. We I've in Ohio but never miss Guppy's when we go to Chautauqua Lake, it's amazing.“

“Went here for a quick 9 after work. It was easy to get a tee time and pace of play was great. My one criticism was that you went back and forth over the same creek a couple of times and the fairways were close together. Definitely some places where you can lose balls.“

“We love the Taphouse. Great people and always trying to improve Bemus!“

“The village casino has a decent atmosphere. The food is mediocre and their food menu is over priced. This place would not survive outside the village That being said it’s a nice place To enjoy a cocktail or drink and watch the sunset.“
