Beautiful restaurant and outdoors! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Except they didn’t know what the Irish/American flag on the wall was LOL. Owner is very hospitable. We were a party of 5 and all the food came out very fast.

Amazing! I reserved a table for 2 for my wife’s birthday! The food was the best ive had in a long time for the style and price range. The server, Nick, was awesome and made sure our needs were well attended to. Food was prompt, hot, and delicious. 10/10

We made an unplanned stop at this restaurant on our way back to NYC from Niagara Falls and were lucky to find it. The views were stunning, and the staff was prompt and helpful. There was plenty of parking and seating, and we chose a table with a scenic view.

They served complimentary fresh bread and butter, which was a nice touch. I loved the Grilled Buffalo Wings—smoky and flavorful. With the staff’s recommendation, I also tried the Scallops, Flash-Baked Salmon, and Ratatouille with wild rice. While all the food was fresh, the wings were the standout for me.

A perfect mix of good food and great views!

First, it has incredibly beautiful views and an outside eating area. The food was delicious with nice portion size. But, the best thing about this restaurant is the owner and the staff. They just made everything better!! Great attitudes and professionalism, and they go out of their way to make sure you have a great time!

A couple months ago, I attended a local community event hosted here. I’ve lived in the area for several years and that was my first time there. Tonight, for our anniversary, I knew we had to go back. Mike and his team did an amazing job taking care of us. The outside view was beautiful and sunny, the music/entertainment was good, and the food & service was excellent! I highly recommend this restaurant – the grilled buffalo wings & bread pudding bites were my favorite!!!

My wife and I were brought here by some friends who live local. Our friends love the restaurant and have been many times. Our experience was not the same.

Full disclosure – we had a reservation and ate dinner at the same time a wedding reception was happening. It’s possible that the issues we had were the result of the wedding. When we are back in the area, we may try it again, but I’m not sure.

The atmosphere was great. We sat outside and the sunset views were spectacular.

Service was really slow. Again – could be the result of the wedding, but as an example, it took ~20 minutes to bring two desserts after they were ordered. One entree was room temp when they finally arrived.

The food was okay, but not great. I ordered a filet, and asked for it to be medium rare. It came out mostly well done (barely found any pink). I would’ve said something, but since it took so long for our entrees to arrive, I couldn’t wait for another one, so I just ate it. One of our friends could barely eat her dish – simply took it home and discarded it.

I hope this isn’t the norm – but living 6 hours away, we were very disappointed.

The location is amazing! Great views and good atmosphere. The food and drinks, however, were definitely lacking. As the locals later told me, this is where you go for the view and not the food. My Seared Tuna was not a good cut. It was very stringy, and about half of it was not edible. I let the waitress know.
Then, I tried the apple crisp for dessert, but it was very dry. It should have had a sauce on it per the menu. However, the waitress told me that it didn’t have a sauce. If the food and service improved, this would be the go-to place of the valley.

Went for brunch on Sunday. Busy!! Need to make a reservation! The bartender Jeremy is a champ. He handled all drink orders with efficiency. Breakfast was great. Great omelet. The owner was also on sight and chipping in.
Great place for views. Staff is always very attentive and friendly! Hard to find that these days. The wings were great. Oysters were a tasty treat. The tuna was pretty good, but watch out for the wasabi- its the real deal. HOT! The calamari was very greasy and the ceasar salad was small and no dressing. Lots of interesting mixed drinks, but pricey.
great view…

Table of six on a very busy Friday night. You wouldn’t have known it. The service was so superb from start to finish. It appears that the staff all work together to make the evening perfect. Our “main” server, Taryn, was so professional, fun and attentive. But the other staff who delivered and checked on us were also awesome. Mike Sullivan, you should be proud! All of our meals (mostly fish fry) were done perfectly.
