“The family meal deal we had last night was a decadent treat! My picky young kids loveddd the riggies, meatballs, and caesar salad! We got the most delicious and well made pastries as well! They always check all the boxes! The service is alwayssss fantastic, space is homey and clean, it is a special place here in the mohawk valley! Thanks to this family for being such a wonderful staple in the community.“

“This is a great place for lunch meetings. I meet two of my good friends every two weeks here to enjoy the good food and to visit with Barb, excellent service!! I really like their homemade horseradish sauce, and fried pickle skewers as an appetizer! They have really good food and sizable portions.“

You will not be disappointed when Dave Morgan and his crew roll in! Dave is all about what you the client wants. Just say it and he does it to a T! Thank you Dave for all you did for us❤️“

“Update- 08.08.26
Came in, right at Closing…… they not only welcomed us, but presented us with a spirit and warmth that’s often missing in food establishments today!!! Both our selections, Tuna Poke Fire and Greek Chicken Quinoa were Fresh, Full portioned and presented with friendliness and smiles!!!!
Thank you Everyone!!

Impressive! Upon entering this well-loved eatery, standing in a line almost out the door, I started my order no more than 7 minutes later! Upon looking back, I see a new line out to the door, yet the (4) front staff continue to be the most Professional servers an establishment can ask for! Professional, Polite and Productive! The food was likewise Fresh, Delicious and Healthy! Our hats off to this establishment, and especially the front staff professionals serving patrons all evening long!!“

“If you have never been to Castlewood Cafe, now is the time! With higher prices and decreasing quality and every popular chain, Castlewood continues to offer their large menu, with same quality products! They have not changed that in this economy! My family chooses Castlewood over all the restaurants in this area! What’s more, the friendly smiles and excellent waiting staff! I strongly recommend this small mom and pop diner that has a menu to satisfy everyone, even the pickiest of eaters!“

“Peter's Cornucopia is the absolute go-to grocery store, assuming you actually care about what you put into your body. Though it is predictably more expensive than your average corporate chain—expect to pay about 5-10% more—the quality is far superior. The eggs, milk, and 100% organic produce here are fresh.

To be fair, I still buy my standard packaged products elsewhere purely because it makes sense to save money on mass-produced items. But for the fresh essentials, the investment here is completely worth it if your health is a priority. Also, make sure to check out their cafe counter for the grab-and-go options; their sourdough bread and fresh baked items are incredible.

Ultimately, if you are going to complain about the prices of real ingredients while contentedly living on fast trash food, then I would suggest you save yourself the trip and just shop at Walmart. You won't truly appreciate this place anyway. But for anyone actively seeking out genuine food over processed garbage, this place is an absolute haven.

Don't get me wrong, the store isn't perfect, but it is about as close as it gets. In my experience, this is the premier health-conscious store in the region, with its only real competition being Green Planet Grocery over an hour west, in Fairmount.“

“Really good honey siracha chicken wings and generous serving of loaded tots!“

“Our group overall had a good experience stopping in for a quick bite to eat on our road trip, but found it particularly disturbing that there was a higher up lady attempting to intimidate the workers while we were eating. Our server Raye did a fantastic job holding the entire bar down by herself but was noticeably overworked despite having a great attitude.“

“I recommend the waitress Monica Barrera at the IHOP in Panorama City Calif as she gives such great and wonderful service. She asks if everything is ok and always comes back to give refills. This is much appreciated. Best wishes from the original Johnny Blaze, and "may the Blaze be with you."“
