    Brownie sundae
    Joanne R.

    I must have driven by this place 100 times but today my sister & I were looking for a place to eat lunch. Of course I turn to Yelp for help in finding a restaurant near where I am. Yelp is spot on again! Although this doesn't look like much from the outside the inside is clean and food delicious. The bartender had to take care of the bar and food orders. She was busy but still gave good service. I got the cheesesteak sandwich which came with chips and pickles. My sister the grilled cheese with chips and pickles. My cheesesteak was tasty with a perfect bun which wasn't too much bread. We shared a brownie sundae. It was a huge sundae and so good. If I'm in the area again I won't hesitate to stop in.

    I went here on a Saturday afternoon and it was truly the perfect timing. I walked in, and there were a handful of regulars at the bar and not many other people at the tables. As soon as I sat down, I was greeted by the bartender and offered drinks. Shortly after I placed my food order, which did not take long at all. The food was great. I got a buffalo chicken wrap with their homemade potato chips, which were truly amazing! They have so many options on their menu. It was difficult to choose one thing. There are a bunch of dart boards at the restaurant and it seems like they have events here in the summer when they have bands who come to play. I would absolutely recommend checking this spot out. I will plan on coming back soon!

    The Lafayette Inn is a small town bar with a large back room and I believe it was 6 or 7 dart boards.. they have an extensive menu, honestly, and I am told everything my friends have had there has been good. The salad I had was pretty good and fresh, but the mushrooms on my friends mushroom Swiss burger looked to be canned, so I am mixed. They use bang bang sauce on multiple items on the menu, and the surprisingly sweet and spicy sauce is pretty tasty. The bartender was nice!

    A quaint bar out in Lafayette with an extensive menu. The inside looks like it hasn't been updated in over 30 years, but that's really the only con. Drinks are cheap, it's clean, and they have 2 dart boards and a juke box. Kitchen closes at 9pm. I tried their French onion soup and bang bang wings. Both were delicious!! The wings were nice and crisp. Food prices were very fair as well. I would definitely come here again.

    Amazing place! We were looking for an amazing fish place and found this spot on the side of the road after a hike. I am so glad I stopped. I ordered the fried fish and fries. It also came with cole slaw. I'll definitely be back again soon!

    I had the mushroom Swiss burger and it was outstanding. The French fries may have been the best I've ever had. Excellent service too.

    We had a late dinner here on a Tuesday night in early May, before Skaneateles gets the large summer…read morecrowds. Seated immediately, and given our choice of tables. We sat out on the porch, with views out over the water. Our server, Amy, was really attentive. Food was very good. We got the Bavarian pretzels appetizer, and the mustard sauce was delicious. Our server brought out a warm loaf of bread to go with the salads, which was a nice touch. Our entrees were exactly as described (Bluewater burger and Crab Cake sandwich), arrived just as we finished salads, and very good. The prices were totally reasonable. Appetizer, salad, two sandwiches, two soft drinks was around $65 for dinner. All in all, we were very happy with the meal.

    My wife and I had lunch on Thursday, the restaurant was busy but not crowded. We had a bowl of…read moreLobster Bisque and Scallop chowder. The Bisques was barely warm and had no taste. A few pieces of lobster placed on top. The Chowder was warmer and was ok. We both had Arnold Palmers that were also tasteless. It was not to sweet but just sweet enough but had no flavor. With my eyes closed I could just barely tell the difference between it and my glass of water. We shared the Tuna appetizer. It had a seaweed salad. This was a delight and delicious. The service was mediocre at best. The waitress only came back to ask us how our meal was, just as we were finishing the Tuna. We are avid dinners at the Sherwood Inn and was disappointed with the BWG considering they are under the same ownership umbrella. As far as the ambiance of the grill it is boring and it felt like it needed updating.

    Food, service and ambiance - excellent…read more Amazing culinary concept - nigiri flight of sushi - chef chooses - oh my heck - amazing is all I can say! DH and I shared appetizer of crispy rock shrimp! Excellent. Not so easy to find this "hidden" gem as the entry door sits tucked back and not flush with the rest of the building. If you are looking for something different instead of standard american fare, you won't be disappointed.

    I just finished my meal after ordering take-out. I had such a pleasant experience, from ordering…read moreover the phone (Matt P is a gem) to picking it up, just great. We ordered the karrage, crispy rice w/ spicy tuna, wagyu maki, yubi, HanHan, and the miso cod roll. Everything was fantastic. The karrage is a must get and we will order it again the next time we go. It's crispy and rather light for being fried. The same goes for the Crispy Rice w/ spicy tuna. These are two great appetizers. As for the rolls, everything was great. The fish tasted fresh and flavorful. I have nothing but good things to say about any of the rolls that we ordered. I can't wait to go back for their omekase experience. Overall, very happy with today's lunch. I would recommend it, especially if in Skan. It's away from the main road and has its own parking (big plus). The interior, while small, it's pretty nice. I would definitely want a seat at the sushi bar when I return. Again, great experience and I'd recommend visiting.
