Nice little place where the food and the atmosphere are quaint. It's very romantic and you can't go wrong when it comes to impressing all that has a chance to eat there. The food is always way above standard, and I can tell they take pride in what they do.

Super disappointed. We ate here last year and loved it but tonight was under whelming. The appetizers - harvest vegetable was meh and the shrimp cocktail was just okay. I had the salmon and my husband and daughter shared the rib eye. Salmon was okay and the rib eye was terrible - chewy and not flavorful. The chocolate lava dessert was delicious, we should have just had that. Total bummer, we won’t be going back.

My friend from Japan had a craving for a good steak. They did not disappoint. It was delicious.
We had a private dinner for a group of 40+ people at The Heights and it was an amazing experience start to finish. Thank you to Dominick for helping plan my event and being accommodating to last minute changes. A big shoutout to George and Sydney for being friendly, prompt, and providing amazing service. Lastly, thank you to everyone behind the scenes including the bartender who was slinging drinks in a timely manner and the chef/cook staff that made delicious food for our group. Looking forward to returning for another event!

They have a good collection of grilled fish entrees.

Food was very good. We came somewhat late and one person’s pasta dish was a little cold. The dinner rolls were a bit greasy. The cocktails were excellent as were the two specials that evening (sea bass and tenderloin).

Food was interesting. It was a lot of sweet and savory where the taste and flavor of the food was lost by the sticky and sweet sauces adorning the plate. Presentation of the plates was very good but too bad the dishes didn’t taste as good as they looked. The lava cake that they are so famously known for was also very underwhelming, again the doused it in sauce. It’s a shame that the quality of food doesn’t equate the high prices. Service was alright but the atmosphere made up for it.

This restaurant's food theme is mixing sweet and savory. If that's your thing, you'll love it - cherries or apricots or grapes in the entrees, raspberry vinaigrette on the salads - even the pickles on the burger were sweet rather than dill.
I don't actually like sweet with savory, so there was very little appealing to me on the menu.
Fabulous service and atmosphere.

We have dined many times and our server Kyle has guided us each time … request him and he will guid you to a perfect dining experience… you will enjoy literally every dish … the quality is by far the very best … From the soup Tomato with basil, The amazing appetizers calamari, to the special appetizers, the muscles, the clams, the fish collar, which is absolutely delightful hedonistic… The main Chicken Marcella, Scallops and shrimp and if you desire steak, the outstanding NY strip med was probably the best I ever had !!! Highly recommend this restaurant!!!!

Really unfortunate that they chose to price gouge so significantly on Cornell Graduation weekend. I've been to the Heights several times before and always enjoyed it. My daughter graduated and we wanted to dine there. They told us there is a $30 per person fee for the reservation (which is applied to the bill) that is non refundable. Also told us there would be a special menu. I expected it to be more money but my lord, a chicken dish for $62. A shrimp dish with just 4 shrimp for $68. Specials like Salmon for $80. We did not see the menu until we were texted with it a couple of days before. TOO late to change + we would have lost the deposit. This is really unethical, shame on you Heights!

Dinner was lovely. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the skirt steak was nicely medium rare, if a bit thicker for that style of cut. The dining room area is a little cramped but the layout helps to keep it intimate. Service is top notch and our waiter was kind enough to check for food allergies for dessert due to a previous request for an entree. Price is fair for the portions and the service but could get expensive with drinks.
