O'Malley's Shoreline Tavern

This place was great! The food was amazing, I had a French Dip and it was very good. The French Fries are hand cut and they are to die for!

Good food, great service! Seated our group of 7 immediately. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the server was friendly and helpful.

Great smash burger and fried chicken sandwich!

Good food, fast and good service, friendly staff. Recommended 😄

Tuner steak sandwich slaps

Had the best tuna sandwich and such kind and friendly service. Also, $$ are in a good range!! Highly recommend!!

Such a great spot on the lake! Service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere is a very cute Irish pub. We went for a late lunch and ordered a little bit of everything. It was well paced and everything was tasty. Even the salad was full of really fresh veggies and a great dressing. The seafood chowder was warm on a cold rainy day. The wings are meaty and well done. What I loved about the wings was they let you mix sauces, not every place does this. My husband got the chicken sandwich which was unique and delicious. A friend of mine got the burger which she loved, it had a great bistro sauce. We got an extra side of that sauce with the sweet potato fries which were crispy and soft on the inside. For dessert we got an orange creme bruleé which was made by one of their bartenders and it was so good. The sugar was freshly caramelized on top and still warm. This place is truly a little gem, don't pass it up!

Good Tavern, friendly service. The place is immaculate and smells of popcorn which is my favorite, beautiful views really couldn’t ask for more.

Always fun and delicious

Quiet afternoon when we arrived. The food was amazing. Burgers and sweet potato fries are delicious. Tables by the window offer a great view of the lake. Friendly staff and great food make this an easy recommendation.

This is a long overdue review. In June 2024, I attended my Cornell Reunion and invited my fraternity brothers and their partners to a lunch at O'Malley's Lakeside Tavern. I thought that a trip up Cayuga Lake from Ithaca for a lunch somewhere, coupled with a wine tasting at a vineyard, would make for a very pleasant afternoon for everyone.

After looking at Yelp and Google Reviews, I decided to inquire O'Malley's about whether they could accommodate over twenty people, rain or shine. I chose O'Malley's because of their favorable reviews, excellent menu, quaintness of their facility, location next to the lake, and reasonably close proximity to Cornell.

I spoke with Johnno, the manager, who assured me that O'Malley's would be able to manage our event well. Johnno requested a heads-up on what people would be ordering. I sent out invitations to the lunch along with O'Malley's menu, and requested that people send me their menu selections a week in advance.

I was hoping for good weather for the event, but as luck would have it, the weather forecast called for some rain, as to be expected in the Finger lakes area. Fortunately, O'Malley's had a wonderful outdoor tent set-up, so although it rained a bit, everyone was comfy. I asked for appetizers to come out first, before meals, so everyone could mingle while standing, drinks in hand. Appetizers and meals were well-timed by O'Malley's Staff. The food was delicious.

O'Malley's came through 100 percent for us. Based on my experience, I would encourage anyone who is considering a similar group event to strongly consider O'Malley's. The Staff served us very well, the food was great, and you cannot beat the ambience. Thank you Johnno and team!

Two grandparents, two parents, and two (grand)children had a terrific lunch. The lobster roll is large, whole lobster pieces, not cut up bits mixed in mayo as I have had in Maine, and served with melted butter to drizzle if you choose to. Chicken nuggets were nice pieces of chicken, well flavored and enjoyed by both kids and adults. Great service; the kids were waited on, not put up with. We would definitely go here again!

Our first time there and we enjoyed outdoor seating. They have a limited lunch menu, but some good choices. The employees are very friendly and efficient. The food is well prepared. There is a view of Cayuga lake from the outside seating. Inside seating is available. I would definitely return.

My wife ordered a house salad with a chicken tender with a teaspoon of dressing. The waitress was not friendly at all.
