Eaten here a few times. Fine for Hector. Would never survive in a city. Particularly with super short and rude hostesses. It is also amazing that (according to the hostess) "the kitchen is very small and cannot accommodate all of the seats in the dining room." Wow. Kitchen too small for the restaurant. Never heard such a thing. read more

Had a wonderful lunch on 10/12/18. Our waitress was so kind and eccentric, it made the experience all the more better. The woman seating tables even twirled me down the hallway! Food was so fresh and nice portions. My boyfriend and I both had the roast beef sandwich special and it was delicious! Stonecat is a must when in Seneca Lake! read more

So I can't stand when people leave one star reviews without even having had the food and beverage at a restaurant, but here I am, doing just that. We traveled six hours from Boston to the Finger Lakes for a short weekend to meet up with friends and family. Time together would be short - we'd have only two lunches together away from our campsite at Watkins Glen, so we did our research to choose a lunch spot that offered great food, drinks, and views, and we settled on the Stonecat. We made a reservation for 10 people for 1:30 pm on that Saturday. We kept our party on track to show up promptly at 1:28. We asked to sit on the back patio, but were told they would have to put tables together to accommodate that and so they sat us in a room toward the back instead. We were the only table indoors in these two rooms, so they weren't busy - and there went the gorgeous views, but okay, we are a large party and that's understandable. I wouldn't hold space for ten on my deck, either. We were all still excited for the food and had our first frosty beverages selected. Ten minutes went by. We still hadn't been greeted, so I got up to check the specials board so that our table could also make food choices. At that time, I asked the hostess who'd sat us for a server, and was told one would be right up. Five minutes more go by. Three servers walk by, fetching water for their tables, going in and out of a room behind ours. For us? Crickets. Perhaps Harry Potter's Cloak of Invisibility was real? Perhaps it was tarp-sized, and covering our party? Anyway - the room we were sat in had its blinds down on this gorgeous afternoon, so now going on 20 minutes in, two of us got up to fold up the accordion shades. Immediately a server showed up behind us to say we didn't have to do that, that they'd do it for us - could this be it? Would we actually get to order lunch? Nope! She watched while we finished the blinds on the two other windows and just walked away! As she went, we asked her for a server as well - and she said someone would be right up. Meantime, they sat another party of six on the room adjacent to us. Another five minutes go by, and we again get up and go ask the first server we see for a server. It had now been 20 minutes. Then: a new server came in! Could it be? Was she the one? But she said nothing to us, approached the party of six that had been sitting there for five minutes, and apologized for their wait! We were in such disbelief by this point - remember, we had a reservation, had arrived on time, and had now asked three times, three different people for a server - so there really was zero excuse for this besides blatant disorganization on their parts. So we set a timer. If no one had even greeted our table 28 minutes after we sat down, we would leave. I wanted Stonecat food so badly I got up to find a manager at 25 minutes to ask to get a server so the whole group didn't leave. I found one, but the timer hit 28 and our group filed out the front door as I reported that we had not even been greeted for nearly half an hour. We were all pretty pissed, but ended up at a small sandwich shop with an ice cream stand out front just a couple of miles up the road - and let me tell you, we ended up thankful that the Stonecat wreaked of neglect and disorganization... for shorter money, we ended up being immediately sat and served on a beautiful deck overlooking the lake by folks who care about their business and their customers - and the sandwiches were inventive, well-crafted, PHENOMENALLY delicious by any foodie's standards, and the ice cream rich and creative. To the customers: Spend your hard-earned money at a place that values you. This isn't it. We wasted a precious hour and a half on our only full day in the Finger Lakes choosing the Stonecat, getting there, and getting put in a back room to be forgotten. (And would easily have spent $250 on food and drinks.) To the owners and managers of Stonecat: pull it together. Excellent food is only half the battle. Who cares what you offer, if even to guests who've let you know they're coming, you don't even offer a table side greeting? But, on the other hand, thanks for forcing to go to a place the we would otherwise have overlooked - THAT was truly an awesome and memorable experience with loved ones, and I'll also be leaving that business the review they deserve! Search around for my reviews in his area, folks. (It's now taken me ~30 minutes to write this review. If that seems like too long to spend writing a review, it is. And I could've written it in the same amount of time we waited for ... absolutely nothing at the Stonecat.) read more

This is a lovely lake perched a top the side of Seneca Lake. My GF and phamily went here when we were on tour this summer for Magnaball. We went and did the whole wine thing. Sampled and bought some fantastic wine, saw this place - parking lot full. Pulled in here on a lovely summer afternoon, waited a bit, not too bad tough. Everything on the menu is good. All of the stuff is super fresh / local / all that. A great lunch spot if you are doing winery tours and / or you are "on tour". read more

Ate dinner here on 5/5/23 and was thrilled to see Stonecat getting its groove back. Carrot ginger soup, special salad, and pork chop entree were all delicious. Leidenfrost Cabernet Sauvignon was a nice surprise. Our dining partners loved their catfish dinner and their "Manhector" cocktails looked great. Please support this local restaurant. Some of the best local fare in the area. read more

What a great place. I got the smoked tofu salad which was pretty amazing: the rich smokiness of the tofu really stuck out as did the slightly spicy, sweet papaya-carrot miso dressing. I got one of the gin cocktails- not the corpse reviver- and it was well-mixed. I also had the corn and scallion crepe and by god that was good. Creamy, rich mouthfuls of ricotta (and Goulda although that was less apparent) with bits of corn and scallion embedded in the thin, tasty crepe. Delicious. My husband got the steak which he said was ok- good flavor but too much fat. The rosemary mashed was pretty incredible- rich and just a tad chunky, sprinkled with Rosemary and heavy on butter. Braised curly kale accompanied his meal. Fantastic service and a great atmosphere inside the interesting, warm interior rounded out the experience. read more

I do love the food here but it's changed so much. I understand Covid has forced many permanent changes but I miss a bigger variety on the menus here. The new way of serving is ok as long as there is not a crowd waiting to get in. It takes too long to show new people how it works. Sorry to give a neg to a place I really like. The catfish is still the best I've ever had!! I do recommend going here if you are in the Seneca lake area, just go early! read more

While I may not have eaten here, their coffee and cocktails have me yearning for more. They take a break between lunch and dinner to prep in the kitchen and we showed up just at that moment. Not to worry, 'tis a great time to have a drink on top of all the wine we just tasted. It was actually a refreshing break to sit and relax at the bar. I tried the Thomas Tea, which was a subtle refreshing tea-based cocktail with mint and gin. Everything on their menu rotates based on the season so they're highlighting a lot of great local and regional items. The view of Seneca Lake is gorgeous. I plan to revisit after they close for the winter season. Based on our experience I recommend calling ahead to make a reservation to ensure a spot for a fabulous dinner. read more

This restaurant was recommended by our BnB owner. The service was good and friendly, however the dinner was average. Good pork chop flavor and sauce but very pink inside. The pulled pork was okay but nothing special and on the dry side. I asked the waitress about the duck before ordering and she said the duck breast special was real good but not being offered currently. The highlight was the gin and tonic. The gin is made locally and is wonderful! read more

We ate at the Stonecat Cafe for my Mom's birthday lunch. It was pouring rain, but the outdoor dining had a roof over it and sun shades to keep the rain out. Overall, it was a cool place. You can't see the lake from this location, but it's still a decent view. We had a young waiter that was very good. He was both personable and attentive. Also, he really helped us out when the rain started falling in onto our table. He pulled down the sun shades to block the wind and rain, after offering us a dry table indoors (we opted to remain outside). No complaints on service whatsoever! Unfortunately, none of us were totally wowed by the food. All three ordered the Mac n' Cheese as a main course, which was good. My parents ordered soup as a starter, which they said was not at all warm when it arrived and underwhelming. I went a little crazy and got the "fancy corn dog". I thought it was delicious at first... but changed my mind the more I thought about it. It cost us $70 for 3 beers and lunch. The portions weren't big, the food was good but not as amazing as previous reviews described. I think this is one of those places that may fall victim to their Yelp reviews. Reading these reviews sends you in with very high expectations and we weren't totally impressed. With that said, I would like to come back on a less dismal day and order something different. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to do a road trip, and we ended up in Watkins Glen New York. The people at the Glen Motor Inn suggested Stonecat for our Sunday brunch, and we were more than happy to oblige their recommendation. We had so much fun and it was probably the best Bloody Mary of my life! Everything is natural, organic and simply delicious. I had the Fried Chicken Korean barbecue with sticky rice special. And he had two eggs over easy sausage hash browns and an extra side of bacon. We also ordered a side of bread which was so fun to dip in oil, yum! Being that my boyfriend is a chef he doesn't have very high expectations of places . But the service was wonderful, I loved our waiter. The place was so clean, and everybody was very attentive. The live jazz was a great addition to the place. If you're in the town I highly recommend it, I know I will be back the next time I am. ...xo read more

A really great place with and eclectic and inventive menu using high quality local ingredients. Portion sizes are ample. The staff is genial and competent . I don't know what all of the nay-sayers are kvetching about. I had the sweet and sour soup which was complex and brimming with ingredients. My entree was the pulled pork. The portion was large, flavorful and moist. The accompanying slaw delicious as well as the smoky posole. My wife had the pork tenderloin which was ample, juicy and very flavorful. Each part of our meals reflected care and awareness in choice of ingredients and preparation. read more

Stonecat was located at the perfect spot. After hitting several wineries, we needed some food to bring us back down. After looking over the menu board, I knew exactly what I wanted, the roast beef. Since it was later in the afternoon, I promptly asked if they had anymore? I was informed they didn't. Fail. We decided to stay though, for I knew of it's great reviews. As we were looking over the menu, the waitress informed me there was enough roast beef left for one order... Score!! I ordered the roast beef and my lady ordered the pulled pork. I enjoyed the listed food/drink pairings on the menu, but this was a hydration stop, food and water for us this time around! Food came pretty quick, and looked tasty. The pulled pork was pretty decent, and had a sweet BBQ sauce. Now, onto the reason why I'll be returning... The roast beef was just so tender and flavorful. Being from Buffalo, I've had my fair share of roast beef going up, and this might have been some of the best, I've ever tasted! It was served open with the onions and cheese on top. The focaccia was a great piece of bread that completed the grand sandwich. I couldn't say enough of a lunch special sandwich. If you stop and it's available, please order, you'll enjoy. After this experience, I definitely want to return to see what else they serve. read more

Carly was amazing! We ordered a bottle of wine and split the catfish, poutine, burger. All of the above were delicious and so happy that we ordered to share. We'll absolutely be back the next time we visit the finger lakes! read more

Stunning views, great ambiance, but food was underwhelming. Menu with limited choices. Risotto not what was expected, it really was just soupy, bland barley. Halibut was cold and was sent back, when returned it really just tasted very bland and still raw on the inside although they claimed it was cooked "medium." Waitress never asked me again how the dish was and it was obvious I did not like it as I only took one bite. Still was charged $36 for the dish and no apologies. Olive app and fried catfish was good. Chicken was good but the stuffing was dry. They only had 5 entrees and we got 3 of them and was not very satisfied. Disappointing experience because we really enjoyed the vibe in there and wanted to buy dessert and merchandise but after that experience we just wanted to leave. Bottom line, go for the view and a drink, but don't waste your money on expensive main courses. read more

This was NYC quality food in the middle of nowhere! We had dinner on a Saturday night at 6:45 because anything past 7:00 pm was booked. The view from my table was of the front door and I watched just about everyone get a big hug as they came in the door. I guess this place is very popular with locals so it must be good. Well, it was better than good. It was awesome and I highly recommend it! I started with the wild local mushroom soup which was the best I've ever had. There were several different types of mushroom with other root vegetables which gave it a strong earthy flavor. We then had the melted Brie with a selection of different breads which was very good. My wife had the Chicken Under A Brick which was perfectly cooked chicken breast with purple rice with pickled cucumbers and peaches which were absolutely delicious. I had the Seafood Fra Diavolo which consisted of red snapper, sea scallops, and mussels over polenta in a slightly spiced tomato based sauce. This dish was a special and tasted very special. It was paired with a Pinot Noir which complemented the dish perfectly. Dessert was a vanilla cake with raspberry butter cream between each layer and freshly whipped cream on top. Delicious! I highly recommend this restaurant. Make sure to ask for a table with a view over Seneca Lake so that you can watch the sunset! read more

Our favorite restaurant at Seneca Lake .. would be five stars except for some inconsistent service. Stonecat's food is always interesting, fresh and very well-prepared. When on a budget, either of the old standards, on-premises smoked pulled pork BBQ or catfish has never disappointed. Specials on Sept. 15 of braised beef shank, scallops and chicken with cornbread stuffing all were great, with superb sauces, a Stonecat strength. Also love the maple and juniper sausages. Decor is casual, with a large but plain outdoor deck with views across Seneca Lake. We sat through a thunderstorm there in August, which was exciting. The dining room was packed in September, and we ended up in a room off to the side, which was a bit chilly. read more

Overall really delicious food and a creative menu with a very European ambiance on the outdoor porch. Why a three you ask? I live in NYC and am always amazed at how expensive it is to eat a good meal outside of the city. Expensive mainly because I felt we were upsold a few things and that made me annoyed when we got the final bill. I do recommend it though but suggest servers stop upselling. Customers if you eat there be sure to question when the server keeps suggesting something other than what you think you want unless you don't mind dropping several hundred dollars in Hector NY. Desserts were good but not strong. read more

I was instantly captivated by our friendly hostess and waitress. Very friendly and professional. After sitting down to read our menu, I had time to take in the atmosphere of the establishment. Elegantly humble to say the least. Warm and home like atmosphere with great music. Sophisticated menu options with incredible presentation accompanied by a great selection of local wine and a gorgeous view of Seneca Lake. The special of the day that I had and would recommend to anyone visiting this hidden jewel in central NY is: Pan seared, caramelized beats sauce scallops with roasted rosemary potatoes and a salad and a glass of delicious Merlot. read more

While this place doesn't look like much while passing by, Stonecat packs a big punch in everything you want in a restaurant. My experience started with the host greeting my girlfriend and I in a very welcoming manner and quick made arrangements for us even without reservations (it's good to note we arrived at 6PM sharp so that might have made it possible to accommodate us this quickly. The remaining tables did fill completely within the duration of our meal). Once we sat and started to review the menu we were met with a extremely friendly and knowledgeable waitress. Once she described the specials and the locally made pairing wines, carefully picked out by their sommelier, we were sold. The sea scallops with sautéed spinach, quinoa, slivered almonds, beet-apple cider sauce and Tandoori beef tenderloin over a bed jasmine ric, tikka masala, of perfectly cooked, seasoned, with just enough coating of sauce. Usually, when trying out a new restaurant that has high reviews on yelp is that I find them very salty (e.g. Hazelnut Kitchen is another farm to table restaurant nearby and was overwhelmed with the amount of salt in each dish). Back to Stonecat, all the local ingredients paired with speciality chefs, sommelier, and pastry chef you are in for a very special dinner. read more

Food: Local ingredient perfection. After dozens of visits at all times of the day - brunch, lunch, dinner, drinks....I have yet to experience a meal that wasn't outstanding. Local, fresh ingredients, lots of home-grown herbs (and by this I mean you can see them in their backyard)...a menu that has exciting updates whilst keeping customer favorites always available. You can order light and have olive tapanade with smoke salmon or something more substantial and cozy like rich, perfectly al dente risotto. I am always in awe of the creative, yet simple choices. It's witchcraft I tell you, how does anyone make fish and chicken taste like this?? Amazing. Appearance: 5 stars. It's not a bustling restaurant on 5th avenue. This is wine country and you should expect a cozy, cottage-y, elegant little place with a lovely view of Seneca Lake. If you are looking for something more chic - I expect you aren't going to appreciate the food or the atmosphere which lends to the English garden-esque feel on the rolling countryside. It's charming,charismatic, and perfect for a stop after wine tasting. Staff: 5 stars. There is not a single hostess or server in the restaurant that doesn't go out of their way to make your dinner enjoyable and will even recommend their own favorite dishes from the kitchen. Clearly even the staff enjoys the food as much as the patrons. What I suggest: the Risotto, Duck Confit, Shrimp Diavolo with grits, and absolutely everything from their brunch menu (which includes live music on Sundays!) Did I mention their desserts are to-die-for? How did my kiddo behave: 8/10. Good, not great. He got a little disgruntled toward the end of his meal (homemade mac & cheese that was so delicious I couldn't stop eating from his plate) but one of our waitresses came to the rescue and pulled a few toy trucks from her apron. WHO DOES THAT?? This woman was as delightful as the food and on top of everything. In fact, she is one of the reasons we return! A++++ Would I return: I'm already planning my next trip. This is also the place to show off beautiful Seneca Lake to your visiting friends and family. read more

A diamond in the rough! First several times I've driven past it I thought it was a dump. Boy was I surprised! The fare is local with a somewhat country or southern flare made from freshest organic ingredients and served with best of the best of local wines. Pick almost anything from the menu and you'll be hard pressed to be disappointed. Unlike most places you should listen to the specials because they are inspirational irrespective of what you order. Not too mention tasty. read more

WOW! What an amazing way to start off a get away at the finger lakes. Beautiful view overlooking Seneca Lake, amazing food, great wine and knowledgeable wait staff. All menu items are locally grown and organic. Started off with some great local wine recommendations. My mom and I shared the half portion of the field greens salad tossed with home-made vinaigrette. We each decided to order the specialties of the day. I had the seared scallops served with walnut quinoa and fresh green beans. My mom had the shrimp and sausage tempura served with coconut sticky rice and cucumber peach salad. Both were absolutely AMAZING! I would recommend either dish! We finished the meal with blueberry peach upside down cake--WOW! A little piece heaven in your mouth. read more

Stonecat has odd hours, but if it's open when you're driving by, I suggest stopping in for lunch or dinner. Not a lot of draft beers, but the food is really good. I had the mac and cheese topped with pulled pork for $10 which was delicious. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich which was just as good. There is a heavy influence of pulled pork entrées. There are seasonal specials like pumpkin potato leek soup and such. Overall, a very good menu with reasonable prices. read more

We had the roasted garlic appetizer which was buttery and delicious, served with two different kinds of bread. We each had the soup off the specials menu - beef barley and mushroom. It needed some salt and pepper but was very good. My husband had the strip steak and was very happy with it. It was cooked exactly to his specification. I had the catfish. The breading was cooked perfectly and the fish was sweet and tender. Great service. Would definitely come back! read more

What a great stop along the finger lakes! This place serves what is essentially a twist on American bar fare, with burgers, corndogs, etc., but with a unique twist. I had their corndogs - something I consider fair food and am generally not a fan of - and was very impressed by their sauce, the andoullie sausage, and the cornbread covering. I must say that this was the best corndog I have ever had and would certainly make another stop for either lunch or dinner. read more

We come to Stonecat Cafe every time we are in the Finger Lakes. It's so good farm-to-table food. Always consistent. Room to breathe.

Large selection of Dinger Lakes wine by the glass and no xoxoxo to our favorite organic winery, Bloomer Creek. read more

The food at this place is unreal, simply unreal. This place was recommended to us as a lunch spot and my goodness if you haven't been here before, you won't be sorry. Right on route 414, it's the perfect break during your vineyard or brewery tours. They do close at 3 and reopen later on in the evening so keep that in mind. I think they may keep the bar open throughout the day, however. We stopped in around 2:15 on a Friday afternoon and were able to get a spot at the bar immediately. I went with a glass of Cuvee brut that I had at Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyards the day prior. Stonecat's wine and spirit list is fantastic, it appropriately consists of many different wines from the myriad of vineyards along Seneca Lake. The bartender was friendly and super knowledgable. Each menu item was paired with a suggestive wine, which was very neat. The menu sounded fantastic, lots of healthy options. I went with the beet salad and was initially surprised at the cost considering there was no protein on it. However when it came out and I saw how enormous it was, I was more than satisfied. The beet salad was a combination of both red and golden beets. There were watermelon radishes, walnuts (I guess that constitutes my protein) red onions and chèvre with a pear vinaigrette. The presentation was beautiful and everything was so fresh and delicious. It was light but filling, perfect for continuing our tasting journey towards Geneva. We also ordered a burger and as bold as this statement is, I feel confident in saying it was the best burger I have ever had, ever. I try to steer away from red meat but when the mood strikes, you hope it's worth it and goodness gracious, it was the juiciest most flavorful burger on the planet. Cooked to perfection, it had a garlic mayo, cheddar cheese and mixed greens, absolutely delicious. One bite of that burger and I'm good for the year, that tasty. The beverage distributor or manager, or someone affiliated with the bar happened to be a few seats down from us and spoke endlessly about the various vineyards and breweries that we shouldn't miss. He was a wealth of information and we couldn't have been more appreciative of his help. I will definitely be back here, especially now that I hear they do brunch with a killer bloody Mary! read more

Amazing farm to table restaurant also serving finger lakes wines, craft beers and local spirits. We enjoyed a grass fed steak and mushroom, kale risotto. Both on the decadent side of healthy! Intimate dining room, cozy bar and a substantial patio for outside dining. The staff was both welcoming and efficient. Sorry to have missed the Sunday brunch as the bloody Mary sounded wonderful. I started the evening with a craft cocktail made with Finger Lakes Distillery gin. Right on point, well balanced and refreshing. Plenty of parking and the dining room was very comfortable and nicely lit. read more

I made a reservation weeks ago & twice mentioned that I wanted outdoor seating, as they have ample outdoor seating. When I arrived, I mentioned my reservation & asked if they could accommodate my request, & was told very rudely by the host, "a request is just a request" as she shuffled away. Left a bad taste in my mouth before I could even try the food. read more

Great place. They have gluten free options too. I will be going back there next time I go through Watkins Glen!

Fantastic food, fabulous service and food pairing that is exceptional! This gem was recommended by locals we met at our hotel and I am so happy we had an opportunity to eat here before leaving Watkins Glen. Located in Hector, ten minutes from our hotel, this restaurant had excellent outdoor seating with a view that complimented our experience. Our server Kim enhanced our dining experience and recommended wine to compliment our meal that was very much enjoyed by both me and my husband! We were seated immediately upon our arrival and within minutes Kim came over to greet us. She read the specials which were quite special, and recommended wine from the region that paired perfectly with our entrees! I started with the Gravalox (salmon) that was perfectly paired with pickled green beans, honey and a cream cheese and chive spread that was truly delightful! The white Pinot Noir from Heart and Hands was exquisite, as was this appetizer that started a wonderful dining experience! My husband had the Caesar salad that was also quite delicious. For our main meals, we ordered the two specials - mine a halibut from Alaska that was cooked to perfection and paired with an extra special quinoa, snap peas and a raspberry sauce that blew me away! The combo of all flavors was a culinary masterpiece! I've eaten in the finest restaurants in Manhattan, and this was worthy of more than one Michelin star!! My husband had the duck which was equally delicious and cooked to perfection! It was paired with a whipped sweet potato and a side of beans that received an excellent rating from my husband! The daily bread was also a hit with olive oil that was pleasing and wonderful on the palate! Excellent dining experience and wonderful place for locals to enjoy on a regular basis! 11 out of 10 for this wonderful establishment. Kim is certainly an asset to this establishment and her recommendations and wonderful personality made our dining experience even better! A++ from start to finish! Kind regards, Deborah read more

Great special soup and our server was amazing but that's it. $16 glasses of local wine, a special pork chop that was mostly fat and undercooked, and the other special dish of seafood and rice was cold and we ended up sending the pork dish back since it did not meet our expectations. Extremely disappointed and will probably never go back. read more

Very hit or miss here, but I will caveat that we came with a group of 8 so some of the misses could be due to being overwhelmed. Came here for dinner on a Thursday night. We opted to sit outside, and since there were no 8 tops we split into 2 tables of 4, not a big deal. Had to order up at the bar, which again isn't a big deal, but what created one is that they didn't have a system of assigning orders to people but rather only tables. So we all ordered in pairs, entrees, sides and drinks. Everything came out in random orders and we had to help navigate where everything went. Still no real issue, easily manageable. Drinks were decent, I liked their regional beer selection. As the food came out though, there were quite a few mix ups. Person As entree with person Bs side, people getting their food well before others (I think I finished mined before my gf received hers). I personally liked my burger and fries. Cooked fine, good size, nice crispy fries. But the pulled pork was next to inedible, the corn bread was just a giant block and the catfish was flavorless. Overall don't think I'd go back. read more

I love you and you never let me down. The perfect blend of rustic and refined nestled in wine country of the FLX. I usually just go right for the catfish because it never disappoints but last night I had the halibut that was a special. Perfect. The dish was balanced and hearty without being overwhelming. The fish was prepared perfectly. Poached maybe and with the perfect seat to finish it off. Also of note:My friend tried the cauliflower corn soup and couldn't start talking about how good it was read more

Nice restaurant and good service. I think it's a bit overpriced for the experience however. The soup was ok, but not worth $10 for a small bowl, and if I knew it was that expensive I would not have ordered it. The price was not shared, which is often the case with specials, but it wasn't very "special ". Mushroom "risotto"was good, but also priced high at $26. The seasonal salad was solid. I'm surprised many of the local restaurants charge for bread, that is not common in the Midwest. read more
