“A perfect spot for a quick breakfast! The server was on her own and the restaurant was basically full, but she did an awesome job! I was very happy with my breakfast and coming from a state famous for diners I was impressed. There are specials too. Worth a stop!“

“Food was AMAZING. Me and my girl were visiting from long Island and wanted to try this spot. Went there on a Sunday around 9am and I tried the sugar waffle eggs bacon and cheese. It was delicious. Didn't need any hot sauce it was that good. She got the crosiants eggs and cheese and she loved hers as well. The back was a little cold but other then that, the people were really friendly and they even gave us a free cinnamon roll. Will definitely come back when I'm back in the area.“

“My kids and I were lucky enough to score a last minute deal on a cabin for the night. Was recommended by a lovely lady down the road and I wish I could remember her name to thank her as this place was beyond perfect. I wish we could have stayed longer! such a cute cozy place to relax! Definitely will return! & highly recommend!“

“Little restaurant on the Seneca wine trail. Great food, good portions and our server was very attentive. Breaded mushrooms and mozzarella sticks were tasty. It was prime rib night and wow! It was huge! Cooked to medium rare as ordered and was very good. The au jus that came with it added the perfect amount of saltiness. My husband loved his chicken parm - 1/2 inch thick breaded chicken breast with yummy melted mozzarella on top served over spaghetti. He was full about 3/4 through his meal but liked it so much he finished it! Meals came with a salad and a side. We'd definitely visit again! Of note is that they don't take reservations.“

“Prices are good. Ice cream selection isn't the biggest but enough to find something you'll like. There was only two people working at the time we where there. It was pretty busy and a good size line. However it did move at a good pace. Lots of seating. I got the Caribbean Sunday. Pretty good.“

“Very nice restaurant. You order at the front, they give you a table stand with number and you pick your own seat. Has a nice atmosphere and drinks are pretty good as well. They have a kids menu as well. The boys loved the cat fish fingers. I had the catfish sandwich with fries and it was delicious.“

“The waitress was friendly and the restaurant had character but there are some needed updates that need to be made such as the table tops. It was Friday night fish fry and we had the broiled fish which was not fresh at all and the stuffed fish which was mediocre at best. The cole slaw and bread was very good. The bar was packed and folks were enjoying themselves.Parking: Easy parking lots of roomKid-friendliness: Plenty of space to spread out“

“Did the Easter buffet. Loads of food and variety . There was something for everyone. The area where the gentleman carved the beef needs attention. The beef was way too rare and was extremely hard to cut and chew. Overall it was a great choice and reasonably priced and the hotel had great and wonderful views. If we are in the area we will do Mother's Day.Vegetarian options: The buffet had some delicious choicesDietary restrictions: The buffet had choices markedWheelchair accessibility: It was good and marked“
