Antoinette was our very pleasant server. My wife had the Glazed Salmon and I ate the Delmonico Steak. Atmosphere reflects Ithaca well with antlers on the wall. Although full, the noise doesn't echo of the walls as it often does in more modern eateries.
Went with a group of 14. Ordered the Delmonico, specified medium rare. We waited quite awhile for our food. Sure enough, and happens to me often, my steak came medium well, dry and chewy. Not wanting to have to wait again for a re-try I chawed on it and did not enjoy it at all. Quite disappointed after all it was priced at a premium. Interesting also that the automatically added tip is calculated at a generous 20% not the standard 15%. And with a line on the bill for additional tip. Again, not an enjoyable meal.
The place smells of amazing...something. you don't know what but I let my appetite lead the way. I wasn't sure what I wanted as this is my first time traveling in the area. I just chose whatever was open at the time. Sat at the bar, ordered what were recommended w/o hesitation because just hearing the specials were appealing enough, and helpful so I didn't have to sort through the menu. The bartender, Nikki was the best! Attentive, knowledgeable of the menu and kept a smile on her face. I would definitely return. Taking the food to go, but I'm not worried- it looks amazing and I can't wait to get back to my hotel!
Went there for Sunday Brunch - Choices sounded amazing, had the pulled pork eggs benedict. It was good although you can tell the hollandaise sauce was not homemade, the potatoes were not cooked still hard. Spent $42.00 for 2 breakfast very disappointed. I truly would not recommend the brunch way too expensive for the food you got I could have made this at home.
Incinerated crab cakes, dried out overcooked duck and ribs. And they charge for bread!! Really? Only reason for two stars instead of one was that the salad was good.
We came around 5pm to grab dinner and the place was nearly empty. We started with the charcuterie board which I would highly recommend. The green beans and cauliflower had a curried flavor to them which was outstanding. Everything on the board was fantastic. I also had a steak with a bleu cheese butter on top with green beans and fries. The steak itself was under seasoned and relied on the butter for flavor and salt, but when I tasted the butter with the steak, it was perfect. It was a quiet, nice dinner. Would highly recommend.
This is defintely a favorite spot for locals and the vibe is very chill. The food was very good. My mussels were perfect - not a speck of sand. My husband enjoyed his burger. The taxidermy is fascinating and the fireplace is lovely. My only issue is that the service was very slow despite there being enough servers working that a few were always standing around.
I can only speak for Sunday brunch but it was so yummy. There wasn't any empty tables either so I knew the food would be good. I ordered an omelet which was pretty large. My son got a salmon sandwich which was massive but be said it tasted good. The menu isn't that large but there are definitely options if you're feeling the unch part of brunch.
My Dad took us out tonight with another couple. We all had the prime rib. It was perfect!! The garlic mashed potatoes and green beans were spectacular. I also had a garden salad that was fresh (No iceberg!!!) and fresh croutons that tasted homemade. The ranch dressing was really good. We also had the cheesecake for dessert. Very creamy and delicious. I highly recommend this place. The owner was on the premises and took good care of us at the door. Chelsea, our server, was very efficient. She was present but not overbearing. We loved feeling like we weren't rushed, and the fireplace was a pleasant touch.
The Pulled Pork Benedict was an interesting spin on a classic, very tasty. As was the Bloody Mary!
