This place is perfect for the Sport's enthusiast as there are TV's on every wall pretty much, for fans to catch their favorite teams playing. There is also, a separate room off the bar area for large gatherings. Our waiter was warm and friendly. He took our order promptly.... we waited and waited for our food to come out. Mind you we ordered two sandwiches and a bowl of soup. The soup came out and again we waited. Unfortunately, all we got to try was the soup as we had an event we had to get to as our sandwiches when asked were not prepared. Sometimes things happen when you run a business and it is how you handle them that is the difference between just a restaurant and a great restaurant. This restaurant would earn five stars on just how things were handled. Kudos go to the staff there.... The French Onion soup we had for me was not my cup of tea as it was over seasoned and had way too many croutons which between the seasoning and bread overpowered the soup. My partner in crime thought it tasted OK and proceeded to devour the soup so will leave that up to you to decide LOL !!!!

To say It was Great is an Understatement, to say They Accommodated this large group with Grace and Attention is an Understatement. Growing up, most of us, Multi generational in the Village, and HAVING THIS GATHERING PLACE we All Call Home- was beyond Accommodating, Inviting, and Welcoming.

The food was…read moretop notch, including the.Cullin Skink soup, thick and creamy and smoking and just perfect. It was served with two large pieces of toasted bread, which was a sort of ciabatta. In fact, this soup was better than anything I've had in Scotland. I also ordered.the shepherds pie which was Delicious and full of small and tasty pieces of lamb. The gravy was dark and thick and the potatoes on top just perfect! Had I known the soup was so rich, I would've ordered a salad to go with it. So I am now stuck with a half of a shepherds pie to dig into for dinner tonight, such a problem to have. The atmosphere is simply lovely and this is a restaurant that I could imagine. My parents dining at back in the 1950s. There is a small gift shop, which is really fun to go through. Service was attentive, but not invasive, and all staff were welcoming.

Over the course of dinner, the place never really filled up. And as the evening went on, I found out why. I will say that the food was very good - we asked for the Clams Casino and the Mozzarella Wedge. Soup of the day was New England Clam Chowder, it was nice and thick and loaded with both potatoes and clams. Definitely one of the better ones I've had. Dinner was the BLI Burger, which my wife tells me was very good but no better than quite a few deli's in Syracuse. I ordered the Truffle Gnocci and Scallops, which was expensive for the portion I got - they tried to make it look bigger by serving it in a large bowl but no one was fooled. About 6 gnocci and 3 scallops with some mushroom risotto. Pathetic. Then came the coup de grace... two filet au poivre with the Lazy Surf and Turf. What does this really mean, you might ask? Well, instead of getting a lobster tail they pull the meat out and serve it in a bowl of butter for you. Hence, "lazy" - you don't have to do any work. And they charge exorbitantly for this service. So the price was $74 for the steak with an additional upcharge of $28 for the "lazy" lobster tail. One guest got the lobster tail, one didn't. Was it good? Yes. Was it worth the price? Absolutely not - I've been to Chicago and gotten a better, larger cut of steak for far less than this. So for dinner the bill came to a little over $300 (not including tip). Ridiculous to pay for 4 dinners and a few appetizers, especially when one of them was a burger and fries. I could have gone to the Grotto in North Syracuse, gotten bigger portions, better quality food and spent about half as much. As it stands, I won't be back - not because of the food quality or the service, but because the prices are far too much for far too little.

Walking into the old Gino's Cheese location, it was like a Deja Vu. Other than some decorations changing it was the same. Bar on the right, offering great craft beers and a full bar service, tables as you walk in with booths against the wall. Took an order to go for dinner, but change of plans, lunch the next day. Food Mini Empanadas 2 beef & cheese, 2 chicken & cheese hand rolled empanadas with house-made cilantro lime crema dipping sauce. However, no dipping sauce was included but they were still very good and reheated in our air fryer. Spouse had the chipotle chicken burrito, also loaded and excellent. I enjoyed the Cali Style Birria Burrito Cajun fries (instead of rice) Birria beef, onion, cilantro, cheese, and crema wrapped in a burrito consome, and lime on the side. Burrito was stuffed only half eaten. Saved other half, that delicious. Worth the trip to Fayetteville. Private parking lot. Service was very good. Even had a beer while waiting for our order to go.

We started with chips and salsa and the salsa was extremely spicy. Our waitress didn't mention this before we ordered it and my entire party couldn't even eat it. I ordered the birria tacos and asked for coconut rice instead of yellow rice. My order came out and they gave me yellow rice and no consommé. Someone else in my party got coconut rice and I tried hers. It was cold and clumpy. (Definitely not like their old location, where everything was fresh and delicious). Another person in my party said her food was cold and mentioned it to our server. Our server told one of the other workers and he rudely replied "the food was hot when it came out". Unfortunately the owner wasn't there and she ran a tight ship at the previous location where I never had a bad experience. The location has a cool vibe with an inviting atmosphere but it was an extremely disappointing.

    Last review was 7 years ago and Scenic Root is still out here doing their thing and doing it well…read more We've been going since the early days and it's one of those places you just know is going to be good every time. I ordered the tropical salmon and was side eyeing the coconut a little, but wow... it all came together perfectly. Sweet, tangy, and the salmon was cooked exactly right. Service never disappoints, and whoever was behind the bar deserves a shoutout because that blackberry margarita was dangerous. I went back for round two and I'm not sorry about it. Dessert was a dense chocolate cake that didn't even last long enough for a photo, which says everything. Consistently good food, fabulous drinks, and a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel like family.

We ordered the bang bang shrimp appetizer, and the batter was so crispy and also fluffy (almost like a battered haddock but lighter) - awesome! The bang bang sauce has great flavor, but slightly too mayo forward for my preferences - but ate it up nonetheless and would get them again! I also ordered a blackberry margarita- which I will say was strong, but the flavors were great. When I asked if they minded giving me a couple Slices of lemon and some simple syrup (and yes I admitted that it was a ME problem, not that they made it poorly- it was just stronger and I'm a big wimp!) , they promptly, no questions asked said "we got this" and put the drink back in the shaker and added some simple syrup (mind you I was totally fine with just a little shot glass of it to dump in my drink!) - so the willingness to be so helpful was very appreciated. As for our entrees, one of us ordered the Cajun Alfredo and one of us ordered the Tropical Salmon, both were made incredibly well, and the flavor and seasoning was fantastic! The Alfredo sauce when I tried it was lovely, not so thick and "artery clogging" as some Alfredo can be, but coated the noodles beautifully and packed a flavorful punch. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the pineapple and coconut in the rice made for an amazingly delicious dish. We were also fortunate to sit at a window overlooking the swan pond and then take a nice walk around the pond. So lovely- cannot wait to go back!!

My friend really enjoyed a sangria drink as well. I ordered a burger with chips instead of fries - it came out with fries that were SO good and crisp I decided to just keep them and was quite satisfied. Our server (Evian?) was amazing, patient and gracious and gave personalized service for a group of 10+. She even took a picture for us! The manager came to check in during our meal as well. My ongoing complaint with Craftsman is the ambiance. It is gorgeous inside, the patio is pretty okay, but I have never been a comfortable temperature there...either way too hot or way too cold! I recognize that could be personal preference or a seasonal issue but it's been my experience more than once. They are currently doing some construction in the hall outside the bathrooms. I personally think it is a little overpriced but what they offer is higher quality than some similarly priced restaurants in the area so it doesn't deter me, I just know when I'm there I'll spend a bit.
