My wife and I visited the Finger Lakes region for the first time at the end of July, and we stayed…read moreclose to the Dresden Hotel. It is a really cute old building that is funky and cozy. We had dinner there twice during our week-long stay. The owner is darling and made us feel so welcome, and our waitress was super friendly and helpful. The first night we ordered the fish fry and a salad, and the fish fry (haddock) was so incredibly good that we ordered the same thing the second night we went back! The fish was delicious, and came with fries and coleslaw, and the salad was fantastic as well. Everything was made with very fresh ingredients and was freshly prepared to order. We were sad to leave the finger lakes for many reasons, but not being able to dine regularly at the Dresden Hotel is one of them. We will be back for another trip as soon as we can. Please make sure to stop in and support this great family-run small business. You can then go to Mr Twistee or the Spotted Duck for ice cream afterwards! The world needs more Dresden Hotels!

A place where time has stopped. We had hoped a place with "Hotel" in it would be a bit more classy…read more No luck. For me it was like a step back into the '70s. Paneling, fluorescent lights, bartender watching TV and those backlit graphics that were popular in Chinese restaurants. ( My 9 year old and I later joked that there was no wi-fi in there because there was no wi-fi in the 70s) That said .... we were greeted by the Grandmotherly owner/waitress ( hubby was the bartender) and got to choose a booth. Menu is basic home-cooking. It was good. It may not make many Michelin stars but DEFINITELY take the kids for an experience.

It was a super crowded place, and the food was good, the only issue was the speed of service. Total of 2 hours elapsed before we received our food. I'm not sure if the kitchen is so small, that it gets backed up or what. I don't understand how one order can trump another just because you say you are in a hurry. Maybe it makes sense to the locals, but not so much to out of towners. The food was good, but I would not go again simply due to the wait.

From the…read moremoment you walk through the door, you're greeted with warm, positive energy that instantly makes you feel at home. It's the kind of cozy place where the atmosphere alone can brighten your day. The menu is extensive, offering something for everyone, and the food is absolutely delicious. Whether you're stopping in for a simple cup of coffee or sitting down for a full breakfast like we did, everything is prepared with care and served with a smile. Nick, the owner, truly sets the tone. He welcomes every guest personally, greeting you like you've just walked into his home. His attentiveness and genuine hospitality make all the difference. Bonnie, who was helping that day, was equally amazing so friendly, happy, and kind. You can tell she's a truly good soul who loves what she does. This family operated diner delivers an experience that honestly feels better than many Michelin-starred restaurants. It's not just about the food, it's about how they make you feel. If you're visiting the wineries around Geneva and Seneca Lake, don't forget to add Tucci's Diner as a must stop on your trip. It's the perfect place to start your day or recharge in between tastings. If you're looking for a place where you're treated like family, this is it. A true home away from home. Rich & Donna Go Fort Benning / 82nd!
