There are certain things by which I judge a restaurant's suitability for me. One thing I look for…read morein a breakfast/lunch eatery is their bisquets and gravy. Another is their home fries. At Long Last knocked booth of those out of the park. The best c&b I can ever recall eating, and excellent home fries. The fries were unique to my experience. They were a generous portion of small potatoes, sliced and fried to perfection. My companions decided upon breakfast sandwiches. A ham and cheese bagel for one lady and a steak and cheese bagel for the other. Both came with scrambled eggs on the sandwich, and one lady had peppers and onions (steak) on hers. Both proclaimed their fare to be excellent. Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. The staff members were very helpful. The foʻd came quickly and was served piping hot. You'll be pleased with the open layout and total cleanliness of this restaurant. If it's brunch for you, an assortment of stylized coffees and alcoholic beverages are available. The menu is e x t e n s i v e! You'll find what you want and enjoy it in a relaxed atmosphere. The prices are average for the area. There are many places to dine in the Skaneateles/Auburn area, but I'm eating here. Enjoy!

This place is such a wonderful addition to the Auburn breakfast scene!…read moreWe came in around 9:40 on a Sunday. There weren't any tables but we were fine sitting at the bar. The Dubai chocolate latte had a wonderful pistachio flavor to it. There wasn't as much cream/ foam as most lattes that I've had, but it was still tasty. The avocado toast was a lot larger/ filling than I thought it would be. The balsamic drizzle was perfect on it and the bread was excellent. We loved the flavor of the gravy on the biscuits and gravy. Again, generous portion and the biscuits were nice and flaky. The Dutch Apple French toast was a great recommendation from the bar tender. I love the cinnamon in the bread and it was all not too sweet... definitely did not need the optional maple syrup. The ambience is fresh and light and the service was pleasant. Would love to return!

Upon walking in we were greeted to a friendly environment. Restaurant was packed and we literally…read morewere seated in 5 minutes. Waitress greeted us within minutes with menus and waters. Menu was extensive as well as daily specials. Of course I had to get the crab cake Benedict!! Perfection. My daughters ordered the pancake flight and a nice sized omelette. Food came out literally in 5 minutes nice and hot.Unbelievable for being so packed. Waitress was so friendly. Manager even came over to see how we were doing. Finally we ordered Mimosas for dessert:). All enjoyed. This is a very well run establishment and a must for everyone to try. Menu has many lunch items to try if breakfast is not your thing as well. I definitely will be coming back. It is now my go to in Syracuse. Come check them out. Enjoy!!

A solid meal with very good service…read more Went in today (Monday of Memorial Day Weekend) and although it was quite busy we were seated quickly and our food arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. Our server was super nice and cheerful. I ordered the waffle breakfast sandwich and matcha and felt both fell flat. I love matcha but I really try and only drink ceremonial grade. It was my mistake that I didn't ask before I ordered. This matcha was premixed and came out looking a slightly greenish off white rather than a rich grassy color. I didn't dock points for the matcha though because a ton of places don't do this drink well. My sandwich was good enough but it overall lacked flavor. The eggs were under seasoned and I wish the waffle was crispy versus soggy. It also didn't have much bacon on it. The home fries were excellent though. Perfect color and seasoning, no notes. Everyone else in my party really enjoyed their meals and I'm sure we will be back. The menu is extensive and I'm sure there are some other things that I would enjoy so I'm looking forward to trying something else next time.

I stopped by with a group of 6 on a Friday afternoon. When me and my friend stopped by there was no…read moreone at front so we stood around awkwardly for a bit before someone came over to bring us to our table. Walking through the restaurant was nice as the space was very large and the decor indoor was cozy and whimsical. Our server was nice throughout the meal. However, I did get a water glass that had marks on it that looked like someone just drank out of it and a crumb on the rim. I asked them if they could get me a clean cup and they ended up bringing the same one as the same mark and crumb were still there. For food, our table ordered a few items to share. We got: -CAULIFLOWER WINGS: The chutney/salsa on top of the fried cauliflower was nice and gave the item a little sour kick. However, the cauliflower itself was not cooked fully so not as soft as I wanted it to be. -SYRACUSE POUTINE: The appearance of the poutine was not the best. However, the gravy it came with was very flavorful and tasty. The potatoes themselves were not fried and were in wedge form but went well with the gravy. The small globs of melted cheese on top were a nice complement. -CAJUN SLIDERS: The slider compliments/sauce went well together but the sliders themselves had grill marks on it which gave a bitter bite to those parts of the slider. Additionally, the fried shrimp inside of the slider still had the tail on and so it was a bit of a surprise to bite into a full tail while eating a slider. All in all, a cute spot to see people but food had some hit or miss components.

I said that I'd give it a second try and today I did just that. Today I ordered a Mushroom Burger…read morewith French fries and a slice of cake on the side. Again, absolutely nothing negative to say about the service or the price points. Definitely busier today then during my last visit! Soup is now on the menu as are tacos and about 1/2 dozen daily specials. Without any front end staff it was a one man show today and it's a lot of work for one. (Help Wanted signs up for both front end and back house staff). Okay...food review... 1. The burger was cooked to order, so keep that in mind with regard to any time limitations you may have. 2. The fries were a little light on the portion size, BUT were hot, crispy and tasty...no complaints. 3. The burger to bun ration was off a little, but it was a solid burger overall. Totally a chargrilled burger!!!It was tasty, I have no complaints with it....moist, cooked just right and tasty. Was it the best burger and fries I've had...no...but both were made to order and both were solid. I'd definitely go back for another... REDEMPTION! Adding a star to my original experience.

I happened upon the Mixing Bowl by chance whilst shopping in Camillus. And boy, I'm glad I did…read more Drawn in by the choice of wraps on the menu; blown away by the greatest surprise I've had in a restaurant in a long while. This place makes the best "slice" of pizza. Not really pizza, but focaccia in a pizza-like style reminiscent of Sicilian style pizza. What sets this piece of tomato, dough, and cheese apart is the magic that happens between the layers. There's a middle layer on top of a perfectly crispy bottom and below the extremely tasty cheese top that is both flavorful and has the most pleasing texture. Put it all together with a little charred pepperoni and you got heaven on Earth; truly a spectacular "slice." Also available plain or with sausage. I had mine at room temperature. Soooooo good. Take it from the Pizza Maven. They got something REALLY special here. BTW, the wraps were very good, too. Nicely grilled chicken in a soft wrap stuffed with fresh veggies, fresh mozzarella, almonds, & even strawberries. It worked out to be an interesting, delicious combination. But, when I go back (and I'm going back sooner than later) it's going to be focaccia all the way. Thank you Mixing Bowl for showing me the light in the darkness of the Syracuse pizza world.

On a recent trip to visit a local antique market in Pulaski- we stopped by the Lakeside Restaurant…read morefor a bite to eat and wow, were we pleasantly surprised! Seemingly in the middle of rural upstate NY is this gem of a restaurant. The server and everyone on the staff that interacted with us were simply lovely! Kind, helpful and joyful. I ordered a turkey melt with onion rings, and my friend had a burger with fried which she claimed was one of the best she had eaten in a long time. Accompanied by "sassy sauce" our fries and onion rings were dipped in this delightful yet spicy accoutrement! My turkey melt was delicious- carved turkey- not slimy cold cuts, cheese and banana peppers were a perfect and delectable combination on lightly toasted bread- simply marvelous! For desert- and they are all lovingly homemade, I had a mixed berry pie with ice cream and my friend had a slice of Dutch apple pie! Both equally and fabulously delicious! We left stuffed to the gills and so glad that we turned the truck around to try this hidden gem! Don't pass it up- stop by- it's worth it!

Great place for a few or a large group.

My plans for Mother's Day fell through on the Friday before Mother's Day. I called The Farm House…read morethat morning and was able to get reservations for four on Sunday morning at 9am. When my family entered the restaurant, we immediately like the rustic country decor. We were immediately greeted by a woman who confirmed our reservations and showed us to our table. The restaurant was quickly filling up and it took a few moments for a server to come to our table. After about 15-20 minutes it seemed like the staff got it going and food was coming out to tables and customers that ordered the Mother's Day brunch were getting their food quickly. My kids ordered the chocolate chip pancakes. One with game and one with sausage. My daughter is very picky with her pancakes and ate them all. I had the brunch. I had eggs Benedict, spinach omelette, ham and cheese omelette, bacon, fresh fruit, and two croissants. The food was delicious and fresh. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to stopping by again.

Can't wait to visit again and try other menu items, including sandwiches off their lunch menu. Definitely recommend this spot! I bet it does get really busy during the summer months when people are visiting Sylvan Beach and Verona Beach.
