My wife and I have enjoyed some great meals here throughout the years. We even had our wedding party of 23 people here on New Year’s Eve in 2021 and all went perfectly. We were worried when the establishment changed hands but the new owners have faithfully kept the tradition of amazing food and service – I’d say they even improved it as the atmosphere looks and feels brighter and more welcoming than ever. Everything on the menu I’ve had is good, but there is no better place to enjoy surf and turf in my opinion. You also can’t go wrong with the classic Beef Wellington. Sunday meal specials for two are an awesome deal when you don’t feel like cooking before your start to the work week.

10 out of 10 food, service & experience! After myself moving from a larger more populated city it has been difficult to find a full food experience in this region until I found this spot. By far the best salad that I’ve had in the region, great mixologist behind the bar (Jon) and all around friendly staff. And coming from an artist perspective, the decor and ambiance of the space is also a huge win!

My son, his girlfriend and I ate here on December 20, 2025. I have a sensitivity issue with garlic, onions, and high fructose amongst other things. I ordered the salmon but was not able to have the teriyaki sauce it was in. I asked if the chef could do something for me that did not include onion or garlic. The chef made a butter and lemon sauce to put over the delicious piece of salmon that was cooked to perfection. It was fabulous! The server insured that the side of potatoes did not have any garlic or onion as well. The salad with blu cheese dressing was, again, excellent as well. I very much appreciate the special treatment I received for my sensitive gut. We will eat there again for sure. Thank you to the staff.

I had the Lobster Thermidor and it had wayy too much butter, my food wasn’t the best tasting at all but it’s a very beautiful restaurant.

Visited the Cellar for dinner with family. Our server Riley was fun and very accommodating! Food was very good for not a crazy amount of money. One of the best whiskey sours I’ve had in a while!

Really delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and kind service! So happy to find some local vegan options- my partner got a vegan Build-Your-Own burger and vegan red pepper soup! I got the chicken pasta and caesar salad. Highly recommend this place!

This is a nice place with multiple distinct vibes. The main dining room and bar area are classy and relaxed, with rich woods and leather. The back dining room overlooks the water and is almost like a sun room. Then there is the porch area, where you can enjoy the weather and stand outside.

In a way, The Cellar is like if you took Moxie Grill in Conklin, NY and mixed it with MJ’s in Owego.

Overall, the food was so good that my dinner can be mistaken for a stock photo. This restaurant continues to be a solid addition to Owego’s restaurant lineup.

Good food and drinks. I usually sit at the bar to eat. They also have a Sunday brunch which is nice if you sit on the back porch facing the river. I had the corned beef hash skillet which was too salty (the corned beef). My friend had the Mediterranean omelet which he thoroughly enjoyed. The backdoor omelet was good.

Easily made a reservation over the phone for our anniversary dinner. Our server was friendly and delightful, even with everything being made fresh, the food came out properly and will time so we didn’t feel rushed to eat our other food. Everything tasted fantastic and the atmosphere is a very nice, cozy feeling

The food was amazing! Best French onion soup I think I have ever had! The food and the whole experience was just wonderful. This may be our new favorite spot.
