“just had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Rye in Elmira, and I’m still blown away. From the first bite to the last, every detail was spot on — beautifully presented, expertly seasoned, and bursting with flavor. Honestly, I felt like I was dining at a high-end restaurant in Manhattan, not upstate New York.

The atmosphere was warm and upscale without being pretentious, the service was thoughtful and polished, and the entire experience exceeded all expectations. Rye is elevating the food scene in Elmira in a big way — this place could go toe-to-toe with any top-tier NYC spot. Do yourself a favor and book a table. It’s an experience you won’t forget.“

“It was a Monday night we went for dinner while visiting family in Horseheads. One person ordered the Brisket Quesadillas, tasted good, but when she was peeling open each piece of the quesadillas, most didn't have brisket, over kill of BBQ sauce and cheese. She had minus the jalapenos.
Another person had the Quesadilla Explosion Salad not much chicken in the salad. Seems like this could have been a one time issue since family that lives in Horseheads said it wasn't usually this skimpy with the protein. Wasn't busy in the bar area where we sat, only two other tables with patrons. Our server was pleasant and it was clean in the dining area.“
