Restaurants in Watkins Glen

“This is a really good BBQ place right in Watkins Glen. It has an old garage atmosphere. The place is well done and clean. The food is outstanding. We enjoyed our meal here and highly recommend the place.”

“My husband and I drove an hour and a half for our anniversary dinner and the food was excellent. The service? Not so much. The pad Thai with mock duck was our favorite, the golden bags were also super good. Our waitress never asked if we wanted drinks other than water, we asked. Never asked if we wanted appetizers. The gentleman that ran food seemed to be working very hard, but he brought my husband’s entree out five minutes before mine. No one ever checked in with us. Had to ask for the check. Again, the food was great, and we’d come back again, but wouldn’t make the trip just for it again. As someone in the customer service industry for many years, I get being busy or overwhelmed or whatever, it just wasn’t the best experience.”

“Our second year staying in the cabins. Lovely accommodations, wonderful staff. View of the lake is gorgeous! Highly recommend!”

“Absolutely amazing! Bartender was efficient and a freaking rock star. Balances regulars with tourists (tourist). The food was very very good. The burger was fresh and fries appear hand cut. If you are not into local spots then steer clear, if you love a great atmosphere and local hospitality, go here.”

“Today I was really in the mood for swamp fries. So I packed the family and headed out to prisebox. we got there and the owner handed my daughter the pad of paper to take orders and had her right it down and the prices and then add the total up. This is fantastic in my eyes and the whole crew of people are always so friendly and caring. I love going and eating there when we can. I highly recommend the Prisebox where your prise is in the box as they say on their sign. Keep up the great work and will be back again soon. God bless you all”

“5 Stars – Beautiful, Delicious, and Perfectly Customized! Sugar Mountain Bakery’s dessert cups were a decadent highlight of our Spring Fundraiser! Each one was delicious, beautifully presented, and tailored perfectly to our event. The team was flexible, creative, and a joy to work with. Highly recommend for any occasion that calls for something sweet and memorable!”

“Great restaurant with amazing staff, plenty of indoor seating & outdoor tables next to the marina. Their Oktoberfest beer is splendid & burgers as well. We had a great time.”

“We had an impromptu stay in Watkins Glen on our way home to NC. We absolutely loved the hospitality of the staff at Seneca Lodge. The room was quaint and clean. The food at the Lodge restaurant was amazing, both for supper and breakfast. Can't recommend the cinnamon raisin French toast enough! Our server, Joyce, was attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back!”

“pizza was very good and the wings were perfectly done with a very good flavor. The service was excellent! Thank you all for a great dinner!”

“This is one of my top favorite bars ever. It's secluded & right on the lake. Food was great. The bar tender was alone and she gave an amazing service to a group of 35 people. They had a joke box and some fun games. The view was just perfect. Drinks, fun and games all night. Highly recommend it.”

“Their food is good, service is fast, and it’s pretty cheap! The cheese pizza and buffalo chicken pizza were both flavorful and good sized slices. They had two almost full cases of pizzas and calzones to choose slices from and we were served right away. Three slices and a drink came out to $14. The only minor complaint is that it’s a little too greasy, but nothing out of the ordinary for chain pizza.”

“I’m in the area for NASCAR weekend and I just wanted to give you guys a shout out because that was quite literally the best Arby’s sandwich I ever had! And I thought all the ladies working were all so friendly and nice! Thank you guys so much!!”

“Service was excellent, staff was very nice and took their time, not rushing us. Their recommendations were all winners. All the food came perfect. I had the crab soup and seared Ahi,, both were fresh and tasty. Nice outside seating overlooking the harbor”

“This was the perfect quick lunch stop after visiting Watkins Glen. You can wait for the wood fired pizza under the shade of a nice tree on the stone patio. Service was great and the sparkling lemonade is highly recommended on a warm day.”

“this guy Steven at Kookalaroc makes the best Philly I've ever had and its not even close! I will not be needing to look at the menu ever again. you could start a Cult with this Philly. get the philly”

“Great food and great service”

“Great service and amazing, authentic food. My go-to is the chicken tacos. The soup of the week was chicken and potato and it was incredible. So glad this place is so close to home.”
