The interior is a bit sad- we took our food to a nearby park near the water to eat which was much nicer. The Brisket itself was okay but had large chunks of fat and there was hardly any meat. Mac & Cheese was better than state eatery't but still not anything to write home about. Service was good though! Overall, I probably wouldn't return.

He always had a smile on his face, got our order correct for our party of 6, and offered us take home boxes at the end of our meal. Bathrooms were clean and neat too. Don't miss this great spot!!

There are several side selections and my favorite is their dill pickle potato salad. For both visits we had Paul as our server. He is friendly, welcoming and attentive. The restaurant is right on Market Street near a variety of interesting shops. While not a large space the tables are far enough apart so that you can have a conversation with your partner. They also offer a great selection of local beers and have a full bar as well. We will definitely visit again when we are in Corning the next time

From high end steaks to everyday burgers and then my favorite..... breakfast served all day. It is very spacious, so it was easy to get a seat even on a busy Saturday morning. Complete with a cozy fireplace, it is clean, well appointed and has an inviting atmosphere. The sound levels can be a bit much, and since it's a family place, you will occasionally be dealing with a screeching/screaming child. But overall, a very nice dining experience. Coffee and water came quickly with a complimentary bread and muffin basket. I ordered a special style eggs benedict with a croissant and melted Swiss cheese under an herbal hollandaise sauce, (instead of an english muffin) and my husband ordered a wonderful homemade turkey barley soup and the hot turkey sandwich entree. The food was very very good. It is worth every minute of the forty minute drive from our house!

The menu means towards middle-American classics: turkey sandwiches, meatloaf, pork chops, etc. The twist? There's a maple-syrup theme snuck in wherever it can go. The glaze on the baby carrots, on the pork chops, on the chicken breast? Yes! Maple! The service is skilled and efficient, the people-watching unparalleled, and the portions are enormous for the listed price. Figure two meals for the listed price, and it seems a better deal! Limited wine and beer list; gift shop on premises for maple syrup and jams as souvenirs.

We ordered the smoked mac n cheese with brisket, a brisket taco, and the brisket sandwich with chips. The brisket was tender and delicious, the smoked mac was perfectly cooked -- the cavatappi pasta was al dente and the sauce was creamy without being too thick. The brisket sandwich was super tasty and filling. They sure did not skimp on the brisket! Loved the chopped apples in the coleslaw. A different take on it that made it refreshing. The brisket taco was OK -- good, but not amazing. I think it would have been better had it been in a corn tortilla rather than flour, and have the shredded cheese that was on it, melt. A condiments area would also be nice -- put out some of your housemade BBQ sauce, hot sauce, etc for those that like things hot and/or saucy. Service was friendly and efficient. Atmosphere: casual. Place order at the counter and they bring your food to you. Ample free street parking.

So here's what you need to know! This is a father-son venture that opened up in September of this year. We were fortunate enough to be helped by the son this evening and he gave us a run down of the "new to us" business. They have a drive thru that you can order at and pick up at their take out window. You can also use their website to order ahead and pick up at the window as well. They appear to have picnic tables to enjoy your meal in nicer weather, and they may or may not have indoor seating once this pandemic is over. They have specials most nights of the week that are geared toward families and a lot of them are Italian items. If you like Italian, they were a really good value. They have a Friday fish fry that we're eager to try. All food is cooked to order, so if you're less than patient, I'd recommend ordering about 15 minutes before you want to pick up. For us, if we're getting fresh, made to order food, we don't mind the wait one bit! We selected a variety of items, to sample as much of the menu as we could. The burgers were great! Juicy and nicely charred. We got the ribbon fries and regular fries - both were generous portions and cooked well. Our only suggestion would be to season both items out of the fryer, as we had to add some salt at home. We also tried their chicken fingers which are fresh battered and fried to order. The portion size wasn't as generous as everything else we got, but it will not stop us from ordering them again, they were really good. Overall, it was very good food at a very reasonable price. It's definitely nice to have a drive thru style restaurant in this area, especially during this lovely pandemic. The customer service was great too. We will definitely be back to try out more of their menu, as they also serve breakfast and made to order donuts! Unfortunately for us, they had already cleaned their donut machine for the night. With it being a new, locally owned and operated business, it's a great way to support the local economy.
