I don't care how good they are, the service was awful…read more I'm seated and she comes over right away to give me a menu. She comes back maybe three minutes later, and I wasn't ready to order yet. So she leaves. They were busy, but they only had two servers covering the entire restaurant I was ready to order just a couple of minutes later, and my server never came back. I waited, I even tried to wave down the other server. She just looked at me and walked away. She didn't even bother to tell my server that I was ready to order or that I needed something. Not only that, but the prices were pretty ridiculous. $18 for a simple Cuban sandwich? Not including something to drink? I found a little place just up the road a few miles in Geneva you could get a full dinner for a little over 10 bucks. Thanks anyway, buh--bye.

Spent New Years Eve at The Hog and Hen for a three course dinner. They were quite busy when we…read morearrived and we sat at the bar for a short wait until our table was ready. The restaurant felt cozy with a lit up Christmas tree in the entryway and wreaths hung along the walls. The menu was specialized for the evening with two options to choose from for each course. We both ordered the butternut squash risotto for the appetizer. Prime rib with mashed potatoes and maple glazed carrots for the main course. For dessert I went with the cake pops(pink champagne and double chocolate) and my husband chose the blood orange tart. As always the food was wonderful. The cut of prime rib was thick and not fatty. I was very impressed with the portion sizes. The au ju sauce elevated the flavor of our prime rib. The cake pops were the perfect end to my meal. Great flavor and texture. I was perfectly full by the end of our meal. Even though the dining room was quite crowded, we appreciated the noise level and that we had no trouble hearing each other speak. Our server Alex was attentive and helpful. He offered to have my prime rib grilled longer to be a bit more done which I really appreciated. We left happy with our choice to have our final meal of the year at The Hog and Hen, always a great experience!

Came here after backpacking, it was delicious…read more Food: the sandwiches were amazing and worth every penny. The turkey with apple and bacon was amazing. The schnitzel sandwich was also very good. The fries, at $8 as a side were not worth it, I would have rather ordered another sandwich than got two sides of fries. The chips were also almost flavorless, except that of 99% fresh oil. The kids grilled cheese was American cheese, and thus, imho, was not very good. One of my kids took a bite and didn't like it either. Ambiance: simple, nice view of the lake. Service: friendly staff. Tl;DR: I'll be back, but won't order sides or the grilled cheese.

The shrimp spring rolls were delicious. They do have rice inside which was a surprise but I didn't mind. I really like the peanut sauce on the side! Not pictured is the Pho Ban Mi which my spouse ordered. She enjoyed having Pho to dip the sandwich in. The crispy rice pancake was a nice surprise. My cocktail was smooth and refreshing. And, I had no plans of getting dessert but the tiramisu was a great ending. Off street parking is easily accessible.

I've been here twice now and have enjoy my meals both times…read more The first time I met a friend on a Saturday for late lunch about 3:15. The restaurant is somewhat small, and I was glad when we arrived when we did. A large group of young people came in and took up nearly every open space in the restaurant. When I came again on a Thursday at noon, I was alone and took a seat at the bar. All of the open tables filled up quickly and there was no room left at the bar either. That's truly my ony complaint is that there isn't enough seating. Ok, getting to the food: Banh Xeo (crispy rice pancake) was really good. I enjoyed this simple dish as an appetizer and liked wrapping it up in the lettuce that was served alongside it. It was only a tad bit greasy, but the flavors were very good. Papaya salad was good - a little spicy. I would go milder next time I ordered it. I like that it's served with the sticky rice. When I ordered this, I actually had very little time to eat it before my main came. Ended up taking it and the sticky rice home which didn't really translate well. I would probably not order this as take out based on that. But if you like a good papaya salad, you'll enjoy this one. On my most recent visit I went for a simple chicken pho and loaded it up with chili oil, jalapeno, lime and cilantro. I would have maybe liked a bit of thai basil, but overall the flavors were good. The chicken was good quality white meat which I prefer, and the broth had a nice flavors. This is perfect for a slow, rainy, grey day. The other soup I had was the Bun Bo Hue which has spicy beef in a pork broth. It was really good, and spicy on it's own so I didn't add anything. The red cabbage is what makes it special for me! I would definitely order this again. I've tried both the lychee and pandan spritzers. The pandan has a more earthy flavor which was nice to try, but I don't think it's my favorite. The lychee was a perfect mix of sweet and bubbly. At $5 I probably can't justify ordering it, but it was really good and a refreshing treat. The staff here are very nice and care about your experience. It's nice when the chefs come out and deliver your food and check in on you. I really enjoyed the last couple of visits, and I would recommend it to others. It's probably best that this restaurant is so far from my house, because I could easily become a regular. Definitely worth a try!

A generous glass of house red was only $10. Soup or salad comes with each entree; the soup of the day was seafood in a tomato-based broth. The salad was fresh. Our entree choices were pasta with a huge meatball and chicken cacciatore. The CC was fantastic. Peppers and onions and sauce was spicy and the boneless chicken was sautéd perfectly. The portion was enough for another meal. Bread and garlic butter, as well as water, was kept replenished. Another outstanding meal at a reasonable price.

Have to say that I have been a fan of Core Life in the past but this store fell short of the mark…read more I'll start with the good... The food was fresh and tasty and that's what's the most important... but sadly they fell short in every other way. We were there mid-afternoon on a Saturday and the store was not busy. There was a lot of staff working but, despite that, the counter people seemed indifferent and, in a couple of cases, in a bit glazed over. They were mostly invested in a group conversation that they were having. We received the food and proceeded to find that there were no forks available. I asked for two forks and the staff member seemed a little annoyed with me... and was kind of snippy about me inadvertently standing in front of the cupboard where they were stored. The restaurant dining area was, to say the least disheveled. Napkins on the floor, cups left on tables and the majority of the tables not wiped down. Understandable during prime times but not with better than half the staff just hanging out and only a few other customers in the store. Finally, while I realize that every business is trying to do more with less, the portions were truly skimpy. I'd be surprised if there was more than an ounce of chicken on the salad. Much less than I typically see at other restaurants. Indifferent staff, a slovenly dining area, under supplied and miniscule portions. Sorry to say that this resty has jumped the shark.

The best BBQ I have had and I am from the south!…read more We tried the Full Texas (has all of the meats) with the potato salad, mac and cheese, cornbread, and a lemon curt tart. The tart was tangy, bright, not too sweet, and the bottom wasn't soggy at all. Excellent! As for the BBQ, all of the meats were so smoky and melt-in-your-mouth flavorful! I wasn't expecting to like the chicken, I typically go for brisket, but the chicken stole the show. It was moist and so full of flavor! Definitely my favorite! Closely followed by the brisket, then the ribs, then the pulled pork, and last, but not least, the chorizo/sausage. I also really liked the chimichurri sauce as well as the addition of pickles and pickled onions. They paired really well with the BBQ. I preferred the golden bbq sauce a over the classic bbq (sweeter and too smoky for me). Honestly didn't love the mac and cheese. It was a bit bland and would not recommend or order this again. However, the BBQ and everything else was so good that it makes up for the faults of the mac and cheese. Cornbread was solid- on the crumblier side and not sweet at all. I prefer my cornbread sweeter, but this was still good cornbread. I was pleasantly surprised by the potato salad on the other hand. I don't like potatoes in general because I find them to be too bland and chronically underseasoned. Much to my surprise, I rather liked this potato salad. I loved the addition of dill and green onions. This was really good with the BBQ. The interior is a bit lackluster and the building is unassuming. Everyone there was really friendly and helpful when deciding what to order though! Overall, I would highly recommend State Eatery! Incredible BBQ!

The brisket has a great bark and the right amount of fattiness. The pulled pork is great with the Carolina mustard sauce. We also got a half-pound of ribs.

Right in the river that goes through Honeoye Falls...or maybe this is Mendon. There is a parking lot close by which I didn't know about so I parked on the street. It's super easy to get to. When you walk in there's a bar and there are two dining rooms, it's not a huge place but there was no wait. My friend and I were seated in the little dining room by the falls. It's very...intimate there are three tables and honestly, I felt like if I spoke at my normal voice level-I'd annoy the other diners. It's cozy...we made friends with the other table., Our server was friendly, she did call us guys though and we clearly not and that kind of grinds my gears a little. I didn't say anything to my friend but she also mentioned the use of the words guys.,it's a little burger bar joint so I know it's informal and that's nitpicky but I feel how I feel. She was on top of filling waters, the food came promptly. She set the check down without asking if we wanted dessert maybe they do t have any...I don't know but that was a missed opportunity. The food was really good. I got pizza logs...they are the same exact pizza logs you get anywhere else. The burger...mmmmm. I got the bacon blue. I asked for crispy bacon a well done burger, no lettuce or tomato. As you can see by my photo-it had lettuce. My order was repeated back to me so that's kitchen's fault. Easy enough to pick off. I would have like more blue cheese dressing...I couldn't tell if it was in there. This isn't the kind of bacon that gets crispy but it was done enough for me. The burgers are thin. Butter toasted roll. It was a nearly great burger! I had cottage cheese as a side and it was extremely 'creamy'...I can't say for sure but I feel like some milk was added to cut costs and stretch it because it was like soup. I wasn't able to each much of it. This place was so close to a five...and if you want a really good burger-this is the place.
