Excellent atmosphere within the original layout of the old structure. The food presentation and taste was outstanding. Yes, you are going to pay more for the meal here compared to surrounding restaurants. The pork shank was an outstanding meal. My wife and I were ok with the price point because of the quality and presentation of the food. It’s an experience, not fast food. Take your time have conversation enjoy the ambience. My only suggestion would be to have some Italian wine varieties at reasonable price. There were a lot of California wines to choose from.

I loved our experience at 1844. I made a reservation for there only outside table which is a beautiful living pergola with concord grapes. We were able to check out “the barn” which is there outdoor seating area available on Thursdays. I think its gorgeous inside and out. The owner and chef were so kind and our waitress KayKay was the sweetest. We got the cheese plate , the steak burger , and 1844 salmon, as well as that nights special for dessert. My favorite drink there is the hibiscus margaritas. We had a cute little sample of what looked to me to be a brussel sprout fritter with some type of mushroom gravy!!! I would eat them like i eat fried cheese curd it was soooo good. Our pallet cleanser was also a banger. A beautiful lemon lime sorbet . These small touches are what make this place so special in my opinion.

I got the filet and buffalo shrimp. The filet was cooked to temperature and tender. Buffalo shrimp had a good amount of heat without being overpowering. Service was attentive and paced well. Atmosphere was quiet and organized. Pricing was on par for the quality. No issues.

We chose to celebrate finishing the audio mix of Devon Eriksen’s “Theft of Fire” at the swankiest restaurant in these here parts we could find.

We were NOT disappointed.

Had the Pork chop experience and the special of ravioli with filet. Unbelievable food. Amy Conger, head chef, knocks it outta the park.

Food is excellent! It is pricey and limited on entrée choices. The chef visits the customers tables. That’s something these days. The waitress was very friendly and accommodating. It is set up in rooms in an old house, which I found the seating a bit too close together. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and plan on returning. More than likely on special occasions only.

Strengthes: atmosphere, wait staff very attentive, varied menu, honor reservations, and chef personally visits each table. Disappointments: had an early reservation and still waited two hours for main course, which was tough as there were three children in the group. One entre was not prepared correctly (meal was comped). Bread of the day was tasteless and dense.
Interesting overall highs and lows, but no one went home hungry and would definitely go again. Glad this area has an 1844 House as a dining option. Best wishes!

Although we chose possibly the busiest weekend to visit for our first time, we had an amazing experience. It was parents’ week at the local colleges and although the dining rooms were busy, they were not overrun or chaotic; there was always one or two empty tables- which proves the management are knowledgeable about spacing their reservations, and the wait staff were able to be attentive to everyone without being overwhelmed.
Our server was incredibly friendly and happy, quick but very attentive and eager to make suggestions and answer questions. The atmosphere is incredibly cozy and eclectic in the main house, and more modern and spacious in the rear dining room where we were seated. We had a lovely view next to the window of the property and gardens.
All of the food was exquisite, and very clear that the chef and kitchen staff are well seasoned in fine dining operations.
We ordered from every course, and happily took leftovers home.
I would encourage the management to invest in an espresso machine for cappuccino etc, but that did not detract from our wonderful visit.

We were visiting St. Lawrence U and were looking for a nice place to eat after we arrived. Being from an area with excellent restaurants we are always weary of local places when traveling. This is a very nice little restaurant along the main drag between Canton and Potsdam. We were very pleased. Nice, slightly upscale restaurant in the middle of farmland. The waiter was very friendly and made us feel very comfortable. We all really liked our meals and were impressed with our meals. I had the special fish and chips, my wife had the salmon, and my daughter had the French onion soup (which was excellent) and Gnocchi. We would certainly recommend 1844 house if you live in the area or visiting.

So the seafood bisque was pretty decent, and that’s about all the positive things I have to say. We had called to make a reservation on 5pm Tuesday and left a voicemail asking about the best time for a party of 5 during valentines day weekend, and after a lot of back and forth we were finally able to make a reservation for the 13th. Took three days to finalize a reservation, that is ridiculous…

NOW lets get on to the service, we were sat almost immediately around 7pm and remained seated for 30 minutes without menus and the waitress finally realized after stopping by for the third time… We ordered soups and entrees and proceeded to wait another 30 minutes for 3 soups. Soups were acceptable, but I wish I didn’t have to look at the bowl on my table for the next hour because the waitress decided to disappear and not check on us. We might’ve seen her about 5 about times in over a 2 hour span. Waitress mixed up orders and didn’t even have to ask us what we thought of everything. Pretty obvious when the plates are full that we didn’t enjoy anything. We watched other tables and they didn’t seem to have any of the problems that we did. Again, we waited for the waitress to come and check on us once we got our food but she was probably dilly dallying. She made sure to bring our check out right away though and didn’t ask our opinion on the food, she made us feel unwelcome and like she just wanted us to leave.

Then the food! Fries and bisque were okay and that’s about all the good things I can say. If you want a medium rare cooked steak you might wanna ask for it to be blue or alive or they’ll send out whatever they have in mind. None of our 5 orders seemed to have been properly cooked, new kitchen staff perhaps? All of the food came out like they just microwaved it 15 minutes ago and let it sit before bringing it out. This could have probably all been avoided if our food didn’t sit for so long before we got it. The potatoes were clumpy and cold once they came out and my steak tasted like it was iced, blended up, and molded back together. It tasted so artificial it was not worth my the energy to open my jaw and eat it. We definitely will not be coming back and I recommend checking out the Pizza Hut right down the road, better food AND better prices AND better service AND you cannot out pizza the hut.

I made a reservation to celebrate a special occasion with my family. It was our first time here and last! They took TWO hours to serve us our meals (it was not crowded, 1/2 tables empty) and the steaks, when they finally came out, were cold. One of the steaks was also cooked well done yet ordered medium. We didn’t want to wait another 2 hours for a new one, so we left highly disappointed. I have no clue why everyone raves about this place…
