We traveled upper New York State for over 8 days. We ranked the food and experiences we had …. including some very high level restaurants and all of us agreed this was the best food and dining experience we had. This is a diamond that many may overlook as it was not in the major area but close enough for us from The Red Coach Inn in Niagara Falls to drive. So thankful we did . Hunter sat us down outside by the river . Service was awesome as Hunter almost read our minds on extra napkins, extra plates, water etc The food was fabulous !!!!! We left there so thankful we drove out there and were t intimidated by the construction crews working in the hotel etc. and had stayed. Highly recommend you put this restaurant on your short list !!!

The only thing going for this place was the view of the river. The food was horrible quality, no flavor and bland. I had ordered pasta and it tasted like they microwaved the noodles.

I made reservations online for breakfast on Father's Day at 10:45am. When I got there, I was told they only have a breakfast buffet and they close the kitchen between 11am and 12pm. I was looking forward to the breakfast menu that was provided online. I would never had made reservations for a buffet that only included 3-4 hot items and juice from a machine. The host was very apologetic and only charged us for 3. My husband was ok with it, but I was very disappointed.
