    So this place is new as of less than a month ago... and within 15 min of my house so I was really looking forward to the opening. We wanted to go eat there for our first visit but it didn't work out so instead we ordered takeout. As other reviews on Google have mentioned, the French fries were really good. We also ordered a Philly Cheesesteak which my wife enjoyed & I had the ultimate BLT. In my opinion it was a little heavy on the bacon, which I can't imagine anyone would think is a bad thing. Now being takeout, these sandwiches sat in to-go containers for about 20 min before I got home and opened them... and they were still rather tasty. Fresh out of the kitchen can only be even better. The restaurant itself is nice looking and the wait staff seem really friendly. The pictures of the inside that I posted were not long after they opened for the day so there were only a few people there. Plus the food pictures I posted I found online from other reviews, however I do plan on returning soon and updating this with a more detailed opinion on the service.

    Decent Cod Luke fries..

The food is prepared fresh and of very high quality. This is definitely one of the more upper scale restaurants in the Binghamton area, however, the prices are fair for the quality and quantity of food you receive. They also have a very large and nice bar area. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion or a nice night out!

I was unaware the restaurant was not a stand alone, but rather in a building with other businesses (not a negative, just something to point out). We ate on a Tuesday, pretty early (5:15 reservation) and were there about an hour and 45 minutes, so if you're in a rush for a meal - this isn't the vibe for you. We didn't mind it, however, as we were not in any kind of time constraint. The restaurant itself isn't overly large; so the tables are all pretty close together. Our meals were very good. We both upgraded our salads that came with our meals; I went with the prime salad and my husband the Ceasar. Both were delicious! For our entrees I ordered the Chilean sea bass and my husband the chicken parm. Both were delicious, however my husband's pasta was a little starchy. The two large chicken cutlets with the soft cheese on top really made up for that though! Our server (Alfredo) was very kind and attentive; offering us Prosecco or Complimentary Dessert for our anniversary! We opted for the espresso cheesecake and it was truly the star of the show! Overall: I'd rate it a 4.5, but couldn't justify a 4 star so I gave it a 5. It's a nice place for a special celebration meal!

    Good authentic Cajun!…read more With so much to choose from in Ithaca NY, why would visitors look into a Cajun restaurant? Because we've found that this town is a foodie paradise, we love catfish, and we love love blackened catfish. We had Maxie's blackened catfish in a flavorful spicy deep-pink Creole sauce, with maple-braised (!) collard greens, black beans and rice. They were not fooling around. They know their true Cajun seasoning. The oysters at the next table looked great, too, but we had missed the happy hour special. Of course we added an appetizer of fried green tomatoes with a bright somewhat-spicy New Orleans version of remoulade. Any they didn't shortcut the sazerac either: they rinsed the glass with Pernod, and finished it with authentic Peychaud's bitters. Wonderful.

From the building and decor, to the drinks and decor, NOLA is everywhere on the menu and in the restaurant. We started with a State Street Hurricane (dark and light rum, passionfruit, and lime) and a Spicy Margarita, which were both great. We had a half dozen of both of their oyster selections (Malpeque from PEI and Spindrift from MA), which they serve with freshly shaved horseradish (a nice touch). Then we shared a Caesar salad, their fish fry, and their special of the night - pan-seared arctic char (with a creamy tomato sauce with capers, cheesy grits, and garlicy spinach). Everything was great. As usual, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, and we couldn't eat everything we ordered. But the food was so good we ate most of our leftovers the next day for breakfast. The service was very good, and the vibes are great - it's comfortable, casual, and fun. We had a fun meal and some great food. I'd happily return.

We are excited to go to this restaurant because we have been there a few times before and the service and quality of the food was very very good. The time was the same just with a few adjustments. Of course it is a very busy restaurant and a very enjoyable dining experience. when our waitress who was very attentive asked if we wanted appetizers, and if we were celebrating anything, we did notify her that it was our anniversary that we had received a text message saying that we would be able to have a free appetizer. We did not have that text message, but they were very willing to honor a gift certificate. We enjoyed our appetizer and the bread and oils that they brought to us. Our entrées were ordered, and we had only a few hiccups with the temperatures of the meat. My wife and ordered a steak that would be well done and myself a medium rare steak. Upon arrival for hers, it was undercooked, but paced back on the grill and taken care of with no delay and hassle My steak was undercooked as well, but I had medium rare and it was just rare. They took mine entrée and took it back to the kitchen and recooked itiwith no discrepancy or issues. Upon our referred entrées, we had become full of the delightful bread oils and our appetizer that we were no longer able to continue on with our dinner due to being full. The experience was good and worth the time however there was some disappointment only because the kitchen was full and we had refilled the meals a few times. However, then management was very understanding and came over and talked to us about our concerns, and we explained that we were very excited to eat here and that we understood how busy they were and continue to plan return returning to the restaurant on a less busy night. The management said that the meal was on the restaurant that night and apologized for the inconvenience. I'm leaving the restaurant. The manager only has that we give the restaurant a second chance and come back. We will return to this restaurant. We enjoyed the ambience and the staff and my excellent excellent food.

    The food was average, not worth the elevated pricing. The server was rude. We won't be back.read more

The place has a warm, down-to-earth vibe that makes you feel right at home, like a true local favorite should. We specifically went back for the prime rib after reading someone mention how they prepared it just the way they liked -- we both ordered it seared and it was honestly the best prime rib I've ever had. Perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and mouth watering. The prices were very reasonable, the portions were just right, and nothing felt overdone or pretentious. Also, don't skip the fried cheese curds -- they were amazing. If you're anywhere near the area, The Decoy is absolutely worth a stop (or two).
