Went with husband, on a trip to Lake Canandaigua…read more We both ordered the Yardman breakfast with home fries, onions, and peppers. It also includes 2 strips of bacon, a piece of ham, and a sausage patty. Sounds delicious, but the home fries are not from home, they are likely frozen, and they were way overdone. I couldn't even get my fork into many, and they were so bland. I doused them in ketchup and the "awesome sauce" on the table. No help. The pepper and onions were largely absent.. They were so finely diced, and also overcooked, it was easy to miss. Sausage, bacon, and ham were VERY crispy and a little burnt, but they were still tasty. The eggs were spot on. It came with meat sauce or sausage gravy. Both were very rich. I passed on my meat sauce (too much allspice and/or nutmeg for me). Husband ate his gravy. He said it was sausage forward, with little gravy, but definitely scratch made and good. Full points for that. Coffee was ok, nothing great, a little weak. Now, I will give them credit as we came in at the end of breakfast. So maybe that was it. We got what they had left. The staff was great! I think we missed the mark and should have gone with garbage plates.

Go out of your way to stop and eat here! Garbage plates are on point! The owner seemed to be a one…read moreman show today but you would never know! He was so polite and attentive. The decor has the feel of a vintage steampunk era. A very cool place to sit and dine. The burgers were thin like a smash burger and so yummy. Highly recommend the homefries, seasoned and deep fried to perfection. Mac salad was very good, too. Can't wait to visit again and try some other menu items!

I don't care how good they are, the service was awful…read more I'm seated and she comes over right away to give me a menu. She comes back maybe three minutes later, and I wasn't ready to order yet. So she leaves. They were busy, but they only had two servers covering the entire restaurant I was ready to order just a couple of minutes later, and my server never came back. I waited, I even tried to wave down the other server. She just looked at me and walked away. She didn't even bother to tell my server that I was ready to order or that I needed something. Not only that, but the prices were pretty ridiculous. $18 for a simple Cuban sandwich? Not including something to drink? I found a little place just up the road a few miles in Geneva you could get a full dinner for a little over 10 bucks. Thanks anyway, buh--bye.

When I think of this place, my stomach growls immediately. I think of hand-breaded chicken tenders…read morelike NO other, steaks, salads, and definitely a cocktail or two. Their smoked mac and cheese will blow your mind and you can split it with someone, it's so much food. I do have to comment that I, along with my family, does not enjoy country music at all, so listening to that isn't my favorite. More disappointing, my Mother asked if they might try some other music for those who have been frequenting that location since the 50s (maybe some 50's, 60's, 70's music) and was told "that's what the staff likes, country". Where I come from, it's not about the staff, it's about the customers. Regardless, I still go because the food is just that good.

I visited Charlie Reidel's in Canandaigua today to purchase my dinner. This visit came two days…read moreafter a similar visit to one of those golden arch restaurants in Farmington where I was disgusted by the condition of the restaurant and the inattentiveness of the staff who spent most of the time chatting with one another while debris and food waste remained piled on the floor. After a ten-minute wait at this "fast food" site, I was out the door for the last time! My faith in the future was at least partially restored when I visited Charlie's. While waiting for my order - taken by a cheerful and engaged worker - I observed the workflow in the restaurant and was astounded by the level of effort and competence that I saw in that short period. Although everyone remained busy taking care of the counters and tables, cleaning, tidying up and refilling dispensers, I noticed one young lady who had clearly mastered the art of multi-tasking. While moving from one end of the counter to another to take care of customers, she grabbed a cloth and wiped down the counters on her way. During a few moments of available time, a broom appeared in her hand and the floor was swept clean. As I was observing, I attempted to identify a manager or supervisor and could not do that. That suggests to me that the culture at Charlie Reidel's has evolved to a point where these dedicated employees take ownership of and pride in their jobs. They don't need managers or supervisors standing over their shoulders to force the work to be done. Oh, the food was delicious too.

I have been to the other Charlie's location in Webster plenty of times and figured this one would…read morebe good too. My plate was as good and huge as it always is, my son got a giant great order of popcorn chicken and my wife loved her burger too. The people behind the counter were super nice and actually pretty funny! The vibes of this place was super relaxed and it felt like everyone knew they were in for some good food

The picture with no people does this restaurant a disservice. At night, full of people it is cozy…read moreand lamplit. Super friendly people. I love there are kids and families. The portions are small but DEElicious. Dan had pork belly with pasta and I had the eggplant roulade. Very nice. Thanks Jade!

Would give them 3.5 stars. Agree with some other reviews that the view and atmosphere is nice but…read morenot worth the upsale price. We came as a larger group and they were nice enough for us to order from the breakfast menu as they switched over the lunch menu at 11:30am. Our table enjoyed the food but all agreed it wasn't worth the price point. I tried the chocolate croissant with homemade butter and maple bacon jam along with the Canadian bacon Benedict. The chocolate croissant was nice with the maple bacon jam but definitely not worth the price point of $12. The croissant was quite smaller, like the chocolate croissants you can get from Costco or Starbucks. The Canadian bacon eggs Benedict however was delicious and I really enjoyed it! I just am not sure again it was worth the high price point. However I definitely felt the service was missing. As we were the only ones in the dining area, I felt the service was missing the mark. The server saw we were carrying a baby in the restaurant but didn't ask if we wanted a high chair. My mother-in-law spied it in the corner and then we had to ask for it and we proceeded to set it up at the table. As I was with 2 young kids, I ordered some simple items before the main course like their chocolate croissant and fruit cup. I assumed the server would ask if we wanted those ahead of time but that didn't happen. He also had forgotten my son's drink order and which my son actually had to ask him after some time "where's my juice?" My older son had ordered the s'mores waffles and it looked good when it was delivered but as I cut some of it for me to try later on, I soon realized the batter was uncooked in the middle of most of them. I was thoroughly disappointed he had eaten some of it before I discovered it was uncooked. The server throughly apologized and they remade the order which in the end, we ended up taking home with us. They also didn't take the order off the check for us which normally that would happen. For such a classy restaurant, we would think they would know how to make waffles and for more top-notch service. I think next time we will just enjoy the nice views and choose to eat somewhere else when we are in the area.
