    Double order of chicken wings
    Norma P.

    Stopped at the Alabama Hotel for dinner. I decided to get the chicken wings which were delicious. They were served with an ample amount of carrots and celery...would definitely get again on my next visit!!! A return visit is in the future. I did not get the salad bar but took pictures...it looked really good !!

    Fish fry
    Greg C.

    Food is delicious here. One of the best fish fries around but their whole menu is delicious. Staff is super friendly and helpful. We have family members with allergies and they're very helpful and accommodating They also deserve lots of credit for taking in dozens of stranded travelers during the awful blizzard of December 2022 Great place!!

    The Alabama Hotel was an awesome surprise. I thought it would be a sketchy dive bar but it was a great sit down restaurant with fresh seafood and better prime rib than the red osier! The prime rib special for two on Thursdays is an amazing deal at $44 for two giant cuts of prime rib and a side. The salt potatoes were good too. I wasn't aware they get their seafood flown in fresh but I saw on facebook that they do. Great service, great prices. The salad bar thing is a little weird though and feels like pizza hut--unnecessary.

    Stuffed hot peppers
    Jessica D.

    The place is always packed with locals. Restaurant and bar with a separate door for each. If you just going to the restaurant, enter through the middle door. We went on prime rib night (Thursday) for two $44 I guess comes with salad bar. We ordered the stuff peppers for a appetizer which was a special and they were perfect. Sausage and cheese filled. I got a cheese burger and my husband got the fish sandwich. Both came with fries and a pickle. The waitress didn't ask how I wanted my burger cooked but it came out perfect. We also stayed for dessert. I had chocolate pie and my husband had banana cake. They also had Glenora Niagara wine which is a local wine I don't see often. Very happy to see. Why I waited to come here escapes me. But food and service are perfect. Can't wait to go back.

    Fish Fry (Haddock) To-go: Came with fries, coleslaw, mac salad, a dinner roll w/butter, and a lemon slice and tartar sauce for the fish fry!

    It's funny, I grew up about 10 minutes away from The Alabama Hotel but I have never had a meal, or a drink, from there. That all changed when my family picked up a few fish fry meals, to keep in-line with the Friday Fish Fry craze in WNY, and I was very impressed! On a Friday around 5pm, my mom and her friend ordered three fish fry meals for pick-up. Now I wasn't with them when they picked up the meals, but from what they told me, the experience was pretty seamless, even with how bustling the place was. They didn't have to wait long at all to pay out and get the meals and go. They told me there wasn't an empty table to be found! On to the fish fry itself - It came with a HUGE beer-batter fried Haddock (with a cup of tartar sauce and a lemon slice to squeeze), TONs of fries, a little cup of coleslaw, a little cup of cheesy macaroni salad, and a dinner roll with butter. I was absolutely impressed with how much food I received, but the box it came in gave me a pretty good idea. The fish was fried perfectly - not greasy at all, easy to cut with a fork, and not too "fishy" tasting, but that's most likely due to the fish being Haddock, which typically doesn't taste as "fishy" as others I've had. The coleslaw was excellent, the right level of moistness with a slight vinegar-y flavor but not overwhelming at all. The macaroni salad was excellent too, I was surprised by the cheesy flavor it had, I wasn't expecting it but very much welcomed that. The fries were very good. By the time we were able to sit down and eat our meals though, which was about 40 minutes later, the fries had cooled off and when I finally got around to eating them, they were cold, but that was not a fault of the restaurant at all. As I mentioned at the start, the size of the fish fry and the number of sides was more than generous. All of us walked away plenty full and happy - I, of course, was able to finish mine but my mom and her friend could not. I'm really glad to finally have tried food from The Alabama Hotel! The take-out experience was pretty seamless and the food quality and portions were great. I'd very much like to actually sit inside and grab a meal there, so maybe 2022 will be the year. :)

    Mmmm the prime rib
    Mark B.

    Fabolous prime rib, the best New England clam chowder i ever had. Missing the salad bar but the bowl the table gets is enough for many people. Can't get any better then the Alabama hotel!

    Christmas Eve 2022 in Hotel Alabama.

    Christmas Eve 2022 in Hotel Alabama. About more than 100 people were stuck here because of the storm. Joe, the owner and the neighbors had us here, treated the free meals, hot drinks and blankets, air beds, even Christmas gifts to kids. I and my 10 year old son with our dog were part of them, who really appreciated Joe's kindness and generous. It made us a very memorable Christmas Eve. Thanks, Joe ! And special thank to the Mom who volunteered with her one month baby. It almost made me tears down. I wrote an article and posted those pictures on WeChat E-Magazine. More than three thousands Chinese people have read it and even goes more. I hope everyone who read that can say hi to Joe when they take vacation in Niagara Falls. He deserves that!

    Hotel Alabama isn't much but should you find yourself stuck in the Town of Alabama, New York, it's about the best you'll be able to find. I generally stop here in the afternoons, after a morning of goose hunting and while killing time waiting for the returning evening flight of geese; having a few drinks and exchanging hunting stories with the rest of the patrons. Dress is generally camouflage with baseball cap.

I know for lunch you don't want long wait times. Our server was so great. She was very nice, attentive and friendly. Been here and the Lewiston location and always had good food. Still the same. Our food was delicious. Very nice portion sizes as well. We started off with the burnt ends.. YUM. The smoke flavor definitely came through and it came with some pickleld veggies and cucumbers, it was fresh and tasty. I went with the crab and corn chowder with the bourbon jam burger and fries. Also at the table was a basket of fried shrimp, and the chicken waffles. First let me say their seasoned fries are absolutely amazing. Fried perfect and when they call them seasoned, that they are in a great way! My crab and corn chowder was tasty. I could used bit more crab but that didn't take away from it tasting good. My burger was cooked as I liked. I wish the bacon jam to blue cheese ratio were a bit better. I had way more blue cheese than bacon jam so it was a bit over powering to where I couldn't even taste the bacon jam..but again the flavor and cook was great. I didn't taste the other food items but they looked great and who did eat them said they were good

    Harvest Restaurant is a stunning establishment in the heart of downtown Medina, and no detail here…read morehas been overlooked. From the moment you walk in, you're warmly welcomed and escorted to the restaurant, but don't rush past the entrance too quickly. Take a moment to admire the decor along the way; the design throughout the building is nothing short of a visual delight, thoughtfully crafted with a level of care that's evident in every corner. The food is consistently delicious, and the presentation is pure perfection. Every plate feels as intentional as the space it's served in. The staff matches that same standard: top-notch, friendly, and genuinely warm, the kind of service that makes you feel taken care of rather than just served. Even the seating adds to the experience, the tables and chairs are beyond comfortable, making it easy to settle in and stay a while. If you're someone who needs reading glasses to see a menu, that won't be a problem here, the menus are lit and easy to read, no squinting required. The ambiance is unlike any other dining experience in the area, it's masterfully designed to feel both welcoming and elevated at once. If you're in the mood for a drink, Harvest excels at that as well. They offer a large array of custom cocktails and mocktails, each as thoughtfully put together as everything else on the menu. Whether you're going for dinner, drinks, or both, Harvest Restaurant is an absolute must-visit. It's the kind of place that keeps you coming back again and again. Bring your friends, bring your family, and know without hesitation that you're in for a lovely experience.

The dining rooms were wonderful, and service was excellent, but the meal itself was a letdown. I had the eggs Benedict. The hollandaise was thin, nearly non-existent. The eggs were watery, the Canadian bacon was sliced so thin that was nearly non-existent as well. The muffin was thick and doughy, slightly undercooked. The crispy fried potatoes were not crispy. I was very underwhelmed by the dish, however, the espresso martini I had with it was excellent. The meal almost didn't matter, though, (except that I was hungry) because everything else was delightful.

    My sister and I took our mom out to dinner and picked this spot since it's closer to her than us…read more None of us had been before, so we were going in blind. When we walked in, another customer was raving about the food and telling us how much we'd enjoy it, which honestly made me feel a lot better about trying somewhere new in an unfamiliar area. The vibe is like a bar turned restaurant, dark and a little moody but not off-putting. My mom even got a cutesy leprechaun margarita, which made her smile. We started with 10 mild wings for the table, my sister got a Caesar salad and said the dressing tasted homemade, and this is where I tried French onion soup for the first time. It was okay, just really salty. My mom ended up finishing it, but I did like that the cheese layer wasn't too heavy. I'm still on the hunt for a French onion that really does it for me. I didn't get pictures of the mains, but my mom and I both got steak, I had mashed potatoes and she got a baked potato. My sister got the fettuccine alfredo and marveled at the flavor. She kept saying you can tell it's a local spot and not a chain just by the care put into it. My steak was good, nothing crazy but you really can't go wrong. The mashed potatoes were a little bland but still edible. My mom loved her meal and finished everything, while my sister and I both had leftovers. The only downside was the service. Our waitress wasn't very friendly, kind of impatient and a little passive aggressive, like we were bothering her just by being there. Given the lack of diversity in the area, it didn't completely surprise me, but it was still noticeable. We didn't let it ruin the night though. Overall we still enjoyed it and I'd go back if I'm ever in Batavia again. Reasonable prices, solid food. Taking everything into account, I'd give it a 6.9/10.

    Oh how the mighty have fallen! I remember when this restaurant was opened by "Alex" and it was…read morefantastic. I knew Alex by mutual acquaintance and growing up in the same small town. He was a professional restaurateur who was paid to sit with celebrities at the posh places he worked in South Florida in the 70s. Whatever else is said, the man had high standards in food and dining experience. When he opened, and for years after the place was always packed and very popular. The food was high quality and your meal came with 2 sides, salad, hot bread and nice presentation at a reasonable price. Alex left the business several years ago and the current owner has run it for some time. Today was my first time back in several years. The outside looks dated and needs a refresh. I almost thought it was closed. It was 2:30pm on Saturday before Mother's Day and almost empty. I don't recall it ever not being full of people waiting at the bar for a table. Until today. The decor is ok although I don't care for the fringe lamps directly over your head. I was going to get ribs but decided on 10 oz prime rib ($32.00) comes with 1 side (I chose baked potato - only sour cream and butter is offered). No salad unless you pay extra! The warm bread was fine with two kinds of butter. My companion had the Kids spaghetti $(8.99). My prime rib came out and it looked about half the normal thickness it should be and in a puddle of juice. Even the server commented about why the kitchen did that. And it was warm, at best. No horseradish or other condiments were offered. No garnish on the plate. Just a thin slab of meat. The juice should have been in a separate cup. But the small baked potato was steaming hot! My companion had a giant pile of spaghetti with about a 1/4 cup of sauce on top! Too little for the mound of spaghetti. And it looked like cheap jar sauce and no meatballs. She didn't mind but I wasn't thrilled. And her fountain drink did not come with the meal ($3.99)! I had a lavender lemon drop martini that was ok. ($10). Ultimately the food is mediocre and it feels like they are cutting corners to keep prices down. But that means it's no longer the special place it used to be. Sad.
