The food is absolutely incredible. Everything was really good. The calamari is the best I’ve ever had. The chicken parm was also superb. I do wish the carbonara had more guanciale. We also had blood orange sorbet which was the highlight of a fabulous meal. Portion sizes are great for the price. My biggest complaint is I had marked in the reservation that it was my wife b-day but no one said anything about it. Meanwhile the table next to us got a treat or two for their birthday. Won’t hold it against them, the server seemed a little inexperienced and it was very busy!Still a 5/5 and probably the best restaurant in Corning, especially if you like Italian. Massive upgrade over the old Sorge’s that was in this building before!

We had an absolutely delicious incredible meal this past Thursday night. From start to finish the service, the food,
and the homey comfortable vibe Ellen & Michael have created is top tier. An excellent welcome addition to the restaurant choices in Corning. Bravo to the Pasta Squadron!

An absolute exquisite experience at Ellen & Michael’s. We are avid patrons of The Cellar and this new gem of a place is just what Market St needs. We are excited for this old world Italian eatery that is a lovely mix of traditional Italian American food , ambience and service ! Mangia is the true vibe here !!!

Beautiful experience and wine list, incredible, fresh pasta made right on site, and the best gelato this side of Italy! Staff is also so friendly.

With a spouse that is 100% gluten free it’s nice to be able to go someplace – an Italian restaurant no less – and be able to order almost anything on the menu – pasta dishes included – and have a homemade gluten free option available. Portions were plenty and the prices were remarkably reasonable. I think the most expensive “item” we ordered was the glass of wine for my wife. People were friendly, atmosphere was nice and the food delicious. We cannot wait to get back and try the other half of the menu we missed .

Whoa……. This place was absolutely perfect all the way around. Down to the water everything was delicious and the perfect portions. We left full and completely satisfied. The wait staff were extremely friendly and the owners are also remarkably sweet. Highly recommended

So inviting with the generations of family photos on the walls and seeing the pasta being made as you walk in the door. We had a delicious, and affordable, meal. The arancini, ravioli, whipped ricotta appetizer and house makes gelato, cannoli, and apricot biscotti were our faves of our first visit. Can’t wait to go back and try the rigatoni, meatballs and eggplant parm. The cannoli made me understand why people like cannoli! Thank you Ellen & Michael for this beautiful new gem in the neighborhood!
As far as price per person – our table of four had wine, cocktails, 2 appetizers, a salad, three pastas, an entree and 4 desserts.

I rarely leave reviews because the experience of eating at a restaurant is subjective, but I was truly amazed by my experience here. I had the arancini along with the grilled pork chop in a white wine and mustard sauce. I am still thinking about it, and cannot wait for the opportunity to go back and get it again. Truly thankful to have this restaurant to be in our area.
