Visited here and it turned out our greyhounds were welcome on the deck. While it was wine country, I ordered a Melon Colada - gotta tell you, as good if not better than what I've gotten in the tropics! Service was good, the staff was attentive, and the food was fast. read more

Ambiance was good for outdoor seating. There was good live music. Service was good. Unfortunately the food was underwhelming. Mussels were way too winy. Made me wonder if the chef tasted it. New England clam chowder was good, but not the best I've had. Fries were good. read more

Had a lovely lunch here after a walk around Watkins Glenn. Highly recommend the crab cakes- some of the best we've had. The shrimp/lobster roll was great as well. The seafood dip was okay, bread that came with it was a little stale. The lavender lemonade was not the best either IMO- the lavender syrup had a strong alcohol taste (I'm pretty sure there was no alcohol in it ) Then we took a nice walk to the doc. Was great!!! Staff was wonderful/nice and the vibes were right. read more

Hit and miss for me. The view is spectacular! Parking in the back and side. Reservations are recommended since seating is limited. Nice menu. The first time I went the Caesar salad was drenched in dressing. The shrimp dish was good, the rice was dry and not a lot of taste. The spicy painkiller drink was interesting. The second visit I had the portobello mushroom dish, it came with two mushrooms, I didn't novice the little specs of broccoli at first. When I asked the waitress she confirmed there was broccoli in it I explained I am allergic To broccoli. She simply went and got me one portobello mushroom in a to go with no broccoli on it, and that was it. Not sure if I will return for a third visit. read more

Special occasion for us. 55th wedding anniversary. We wanted fine dining. Chose Seneca Harbor Station, mistake was they had the dining room closed for a private event. They put us on the outside deck, flys and people with their dogs. Not very romantic for the upscale prices they charged. To top it off, when we got the bill, there was a cash price and a credit card price. Pretty tacky when you spend over $100. For two people. On the other hand the food was 7 out of 10. Very disappointed. read more

Stop by this restaurant after strolling around the Seneca harbor. Food and service is good. The best part is the view of the harbor by the window. Go for early dinner to get a nice table by the window so you can enjoy the view. read more

Food was terriable. We spent well over $250 at our table. 2 people ordered steak. 1 was over done and the other was practically raw. Not at all how they were ordered. Shrimp was not cooked all the way. Dip was SO soupy that you could barely eat it. Chicken tortilla salad was awful. None of us were happy with our dinners. Server was nice, but never once asked why we didn't eat our meals, or why we didn't want boxes. The hostess was rude and flat out lied about when we called and made the reservation. Best part is that she was on speakerphone so we ALL heard exactly what she said. We do not recommend and would never go back to this place!! read more

The food was just OK but the prices were in line with 5 star fine dining. I guess it's a seasonal thing. Service and view was excellent however. Dining room manager was very impressive. read more

Very good food, beautiful view. Had lobster linguine dish and lobster over salmon. Yum bread too

Food here was overall okay but the live music was awesome. Prices are high for the actual quality of the food. Really pretty views from the restaurant. read more

We came to Seneca Harbor Station for lunch after hiking in Watkins State Park. We ordered the Cheesesteak Eggrolls ($16.99), Calamari ($18.99), New England Clam Chowder (crock size $10.99), and Ahi Tuna ($$19.99). I only liked the chowder as it was thick, savory, and flavorful. The Ahi Tuna was not good... We also ordered the pina colada smoothie ($10) which was nice, but the ice chunks were a little too big so they kept getting stuck in the straw. read more

Came here for lunch. The restaurant is nice and offers great water views from the dining room. Our server was friendly and checked in on us regularly. Unfortunately, the food was only average. I got the Ahi Tuna salad and seafood pasta. The tuna wasn't particularly good and the portion size was small for $20. The seafood pasta was mostly pasta and had virtually no seafood. There were 2 small shrimps, a couple of mussels, and what appears to be mostly frozen clam meat mixed into the sauce. It's a far cry from actual seafood pasta. read more

Was a great view and good food , lake life IPA was tasty,, only critique would be the lobster / Seafood roll was missing the lobster (lots of shrimp) but flavour was nice either way read more

Our meals were delicious and the view's perfect! The clam chowder was absolutely the best we've ever had in our lengthy lives !

We saw the mixed reviews but still decided to give it a try. Service was good and we had a lovely lunch at Seneca Harbor Station. It was a nice mild day and we sat outdoor by the track overlooking the lake. I had the Seafood Roll with Sweet Potato Fries while sipping Blood Orange Cosmo, and hubby got the Ruben Sandwich. Both sandwiches were good and we enjoyed it as much as the ambience. read more

Fabulous location with stunning views and very attentive service. The prices are on the expensive side though the size of the portions makes up for some of that. The lobster mac&cheese tastes great, and can easily be shared between two of three people. read more

After a day of wine tasting, my friends and I decided to check out Seneca Harbor Station. It's a really cool place. It's interesting to me this restaurant used to be a train station. The atmosphere by the lake is amazing, and the view of the lake is incredible. We were seated on the other side of the restaurant. They mostly serve seafood and steak, but they also have a Cesar salad and spicy rice which was enough for me. Our server, Katie, was super friendly and made sure we were taken care of. We had a great time at Seneca Harbor Station, and I highly recommend it if you're ever in Watkins Glen/Seneca Lake. read more

Save your money, much tastier and better tasting places you can try out than here. I ordered a burger med-rare and the minute I took my first bite, I knew it was a frozen overcooked patty with the fake smoke taste. The ambiance is fine, nothing spectacular with good service. I wish I could have shared a better review but so I gave them a two star instead of one because our server was so kind. read more

When every other restaurant has a wait but this one...... you know why. Food is trash! $170 for 2 burgers (dry, cheese wasn't even melted), fries, dip with the consistency of soup, and 4 drinks. Should have went to Arby's and had the real beef. Expectations would have been the same. Came back after several yrs only for a bigger disappointment than the last time. The only thing that saves this place is the view. Get it together, even Pudgies has better options! Sincerely, disappointed. read more

Went for dinner. Food was amazing..our waiter Logan was outstanding. He went above and beyond helping my stepdad to the restroom..clam chowder was awesome..shrimp trio was very good.. read more

TJ was the best waiter that we've had in a long time! Above and beyond and very polite. read more

Great view, but was disappointed when their sides of vegetables were frozen and heated up with some butter. Also felt that all of their entrées were just covered with bottled sauces. not impressed. read more

This is an absolute must visit if you're in Watkins Glenn. Food 5/5, service 5/5, and ambiance 5/5!!!! We stopped in here for a glass or wine and took a walk on the pier they have by the restaurant. It's very relaxing and the views are spectacular. The lake is just so beautiful! Service was outstanding! The team was accommodating when we wanted to sit in a specific area with a waitress who was so kind to us. Calya is amazing!!!! Food was also really good! The pasta dishes are tasty, and recommended if you're dining here. Overall this is a really pretty spot on the lake, and the service and food are good. You can't go wrong! read more

Stopped in on a Tuesday evening while passing through Watkins Glen. I'm trying to eat healthy so I don't generally expect many compatible menu choices at restaurants. I was pleased to see enough items to make it hard to choose. Ordered their seafood salad w/aloi dressing. It was larger than I expected with a generous amount of shrimp and lobster. Dressing was on point. Ambience is great and you can eat inside or out on the deck with nice views. The server was attentive and friendly, and the service was fast. Great place to eat when you're in Watkins Glen. read more

Really good food! I had the French onion steak sandwich and my wife had the turkey panini. Both were delicious.

First time in Watkins Glen. Chose Seneca Harbor Station as its close to the hotel. Captain's Seafood Platter was generally mush. The shrimp were flavorless and soaked in some oil mixture. The most edible was the crabcake & French fries. The calamari was very disappointing. Seafood bisque was also good. Beautiful place for on the water. Would definitely choose somewhere else to try. read more

Very nice. Good service, great deck/patio. The food was just what we were looking for. Thanks for having us. Thanks for treating us well and the food was delicious. We will be back to eat here next time we're in the area. read more

Great food. Great service. Kayla, our waitress , was very nice and a great server. Nice view of the lake too. read more

I had a great experience here. The food is good, service is solid and professional, and the location on the lake is unbeatable. The one thing they could improve on is the freshness of the food. I felt that my corn in the cob tasted like it had been frozen. I understand not everything can be fresh but I would be more impressed if it was farm to table oriented and used in season and local ingredients read more

Worst burger I've been served in my entire life. The crabcake and fish with the mashed potatoes were so cheap. The cheese sauce was disgusting barely any meat.. the cheese sauce tasted like something you would get from a movie theater. Everything tasted like cheap. Our drinks didn't have any alcohol in it twice. read more

The best clam chowder I've had in years! Honestly, it was so so good. I also had the bbq ribs with shrimp and roast potatoes. Everything was delicious & the waiter was so nice. I highly recommend this place. Bonus- my whole meal was gluten free. My family also loved the Italian bread that was served. read more

My wife and I ordered the Mac n cheese. It was a very large portion and tasted delicious. My only complaint is that I didn't see any lobster pieces in the dish. The bread for the table was also really good. read more

The service was amazing - our server was attentive, friendly, and helpful. She even recommended places on the wine trail for us to try while we were in town. The food was ok but definitely not worth the price we paid. The location and atmosphere by the water are great and it was relaxing to sit outside and watch the boats. read more

I visited the restaurant back in 2015 and still remember the spectacular views behind the restaurant. So I came back for dinner again. The gorgeous views are still there. It looked even more amazing this time in the evening. Restaurant has open air patio seating which is important to me since I don't want to sit inside. About the food, portions are generous. The complimentary garlic bread was very good. However, the food doesn't measure up to the price. Our two fish entrees were very bland. There is also a credit card surcharge. This would have been a three star rating but I have to add one star for the view. This place is swamped by tourists during peak season. read more

We had a wonderful lunch on the water. The portion sizes were just right, not too much, not too little. I especially enjoyed the shrimp cocktail appetizer. The clam chowder was delicious. I had the ribs for my main dish which were tender. My boyfriend had the sirloin which was cooked perfectly. Our server, Logan, did a great job managing a very busy lunch crowd while still being attentive to us. Highly recommend! read more

Lovely lunch. I had the seafood roll and it was very good. My friend had the chipotle chicken salad. Both good portions and delicious.

The Good: was a very busy Saturday, but they were able to seat us quickly in the porch area that was somewhat quieter than the main dining space which was very loud. Service was quick and efficient. The seafood bisque was outstanding. The roasted Brussel sprouts, especially with the bacon topping, was delightful. My wife's Jambalaya was delicious. The Bad: the porch had a haze of smoke from the kitchen (exhaust hood not working?) and we came out with our clothes smelling of greasy/burned food. My haddock, shrimp and scallops were all WAY over cooked (Sahara desert dry) and so were my friends chicken breats. The garlic potatoes were so thick that I had to drown them in the butter/a jus from the scallops/shrimp to make them somewhat edible. The prices are extremely high considering the poor food quality. Consider going someplace else... read more
