From the moment we walked through the door, the staff greeted us with joy and genuine warmth. Vickie, our waitress, was absolutely fantastic—attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the food? Phenomenal! By far, one of the best diners around. Even if the cook happens to be a Cowboys fan, we can forgive that because everything was spot-on. We’ll definitely be back!“

Springside Inn American • $$
6141 W Lake Rd, Auburn - 7.13 miles

“I’m getting emotional just writing this, but Springside Inn truly made our wedding dreams come true. The facility itself is STUNNING and so versatile!!! We decided to have our ceremony in The Grove (beautiful outdoor area surrounded by trees) and our reception in the ballroom, but there are so many options and different ways to use the venue that no 2 weddings are alike. The rooms we got to stay in too are also absolutely gorgeous. Antique charm but state of the art amenities. I am not exaggerating when I say the food and cake were some of the best things I’ve ever eaten in my 29 years of existence. So customizable and delicious! The chef and catering staff are so nice and talented. And last by certainly NOT least…the site coordinator, Chris, is an absolute angel. As soon as we booked the venue, she guided us EVERY step of the way with planning. She is an absolute expert on all things wedding planning and ensured the day went so smoothly. She is such a calm presence and was so attentive, helpful, reassuring, and just overall one of the nicest human beings I’ve ever met!!! I feel like I will never be able to express my gratitude for her enough. Springside Inn is an absolute dream in every shape or form and I could not recommend them enough Love, Jacqui and James Married 9/28/24“

We chose the taco bar for dinner and late night pretzels as our food options and everything was delicious. They set up a smaller bar for us in the brew space which worked out great. Amy the event coordinator was great to work with. We would recommend Prison City North Street location for any event!“

Yep, I was sure... even told her my order number so she could see. Her response? "Oh, ok"... no apology, no offer to fix it -- just ok not the end of the world, obviously... but such a bummer“

I really enjoy the way In which my food was cooked, presented, and consistently checked on by my server. I’d recommend paying a visit to Pavlos’ to anyone who enjoys a good meal at a decent price. The fact that It’s a cash only business, Is worth the visit to the ATM. To the staff at Pavlos’…great job! ?“

“My family and I were in the Finger Lakes area for vacation, and we cane here for dinner. They seated use pretty quickly, and they only had a bartender or two, so they had to run back and forth. I got their Philly Cheesesteak and their blueberry bbq wings. The wings surprisingly had a kick of spice and tasted good. The Philly was good as well. They were a little pricey, but it was enjoyable. The inside was unique, with random items all around the bar. I'd go back if I'm back in the area“

I sometimes rather go to the self checkout because some cashiers don't know how to fix simple things like a price change or they just ignore you when you bring it up to them so you have to go to customer service afterwards. Or some of them are just rude or slow as molasses.“
