We have been to The Exchange several times and it has never disappointed us. Very creative dishes, very friendly staff and classic cocktails.

Don’t get the crab claws. One was completely raw the other was mush. The steak was bland and undercooked.

Staff was warm and welcoming. The young lady who waited on us was delighted. She had a wonderful sense of humor and was friendly yet professional! The food was excellent, tasty and adequate portions. The soups, my wife's African peanut stew and my French onion, were delicious. The ambiance, for me felt a little too corporate but was pleasant. Also, it was a tinee bit pricey but the overall experience was well worth it.

I went with a group of peers for a work conference. The entire menu was mostly gluten free, with separate fryer! The fried calamari was cooked to perfection! Something I had never found before anywhere else. I had the Petite Delmonico, with truffle & black pepper fries and sauted kale. Delicious!! Again everything cooked to perfection. If you like key lime pie, be sure to try, the owner traveled the world to find just the right recipe! And there is a bakery attached! Highly recommend!!

Absolute gem. The menu provides plenty of options for all tastes whether you have a sophisticated palette or prefer adolescent fare. Meatloaf sandwich is a winner. Prices are very reasonable. Bar offerings are likewise varied. Great selection of NA beer, which is refreshing. Bartenders are fantastic. Enthusiastically recommend!

Ate here twice while visiting the area recently. The food was superb and the Angel’s Envy Old Fashioned was better than homemade. I will have to travel here again to visit the Exchange.
Yawn. Uninspired and bland. For the money and execution, do yourself the favor and hit up basically anywhere in Ithaca. Or

I strongly recommend The Exchange. I ate there twice in mid-September 2024. It’s fine dining at its best. The Exchange is clean, well lit, plays great music, is a welcoming environment, and has an excellent menu. Both the food and service are great. Some customers might think The Exchange is expensive, but quality food and service cost money and I think the prices are in line with what you get. Plus, it’s easy to select menu items like soup, dinner salads and hearty sides to construct a complete meal at a reasonable price. Most of the restaurant options in Cortland/Homer are either bar food, fast food chains, or strip center pizza joints. You desire better than that. The Exchange is the place to go for ambiance, a great menu, and high-quality food and service. Do you work for an organization that requires you to plan special events/dinners for clients? Are you celebrating a life event (weddings, births, engagements, birthdays, meeting old friends)? Do you want to get away from bar food, fast food and strip center pizza? Go to The Exchange. You won’t regret it.

If you haven’t visited The Exchange yet, get yourself there now! The food is excellent, the ambiance is delightful, and the service is very good.
I only have the service 4 stars because our server did not ask if we wanted coffee with dessert and gave us our bill before dessert arrived. Not a big deal by any means, but I probably would have ordered coffee with my AMAZING CHOCOLATE TORTE if they had asked me. Once I realized I wanted it I was already halfway through and figured it was a bit late to add that after paying the bill. Otherwise, I will be going again soon to enjoy their amazing food and wine!
