I absolutely can not say enough about Joelle’s bistro. The atmosphere was wonderful and friendly. The food was incredible and the service was excellent. We went to Skaneateles for the weekend and this was, by far, the best meal we had while visiting. I would highly recommend and will absolutely be back when we are back in town.

The food was fantastic, we have not been able to find proper French food till we discovered this. The lamb and braised short rib was delicious. Call ahead to make a reservation.

My sister, cousin and I dined at Joelle's for the first time last night. What a wonderful experience! I felt warmly welcomed and well taken care of. The service is wonderful, the food is beyond perfection. I highly recommend Joelle's and look forward to returning soon!

One of the beat restaurant in Syracuse area. We’ve been there year after year and never had enough or never been disappointed. Good service by Alan and Zack and food prepared by Joelle and cooking team close to excellence.

Phenomenal! First time here and this is now our new favorite spot. Escargot and duck drumstick appetizers were delicious. Entrees were top notch as well. I had the lamb loin chops and the wife had the grilled shrimp. So many flavors and the chef was able to accommodate for a gluten allergy. Can’t wait to come back!

They went above and beyond for my wife’s birthday and made the night magical. The food was amazing, as was the service and ambiance. Impeccable restaurant. Possibly the best in CNY.

Best restaurant I have ever had the privilege of dining in. Love the owners and staff. Must say all my love to chef for her wonderful duck. Every which way it’s served. And the hospitality was incredible.
I recommend this hidden gem.
Lovely date night. Great drinks and food. The staff was super

A hidden GEM! I can’t believe it took us 2 years to find this restaurant just outside Skaneateles. One of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a very long time. Unmatched service, superb and unique cuisine that was totally unexpected. We dined on the back patio and it was simply perfect! Highly recommend!

My wife and I had dinner here on a Saturday evening. First time here, in fact I'd never been aware of it until searching online for a good restaurant in the area. The reviews were all good but it exceeded my expectations. It was a beautiful summer late afternoon when we were seated on the patio. The setting was very relaxing, with exotic flowers on the patio, which overlooks a lawn surrounded by trees. Service was good,; the owner (yes, he's French) greeted us and looked over things, and the wait staff was attentive. I was tempted by some of the North African dishes on the menu, but went for the steak au poivre, and my wife chose lamb chops. Both were terrific, done medium rare as ordered, and nicely sauced. I was a bit surprised that my fries weren't shoestring frites, but they were crisp and tasty. I'm not generally a big dessert person, but we shared a sampler dessert platter and it may have been the star of the show. Everything was good, but the creme brulee and chocolate mousse were particularly amazing. This is about an hour from our home, so we won't be there frequently, but we'll definitely be back. I'm already looking into places to stay in the area for a weekend getaway that will include a visit to Joelle's.
