I just visited this establishment again on 7/8 for lunch, and had the polar opposite of my…read moreexperience in April. Unlike in April, when I enjoyed a perfectly cooked medium rare burger and delicious hot crispy sweet potato fries, when I walked in I could see that the kitchen was manned by two young guys instead of Lori, and I sensed that I might be in trouble. Once again I've learned to trust my instincts. I ordered the same meal, the Bacon Bourbon Swiss burger, medium rare, and sweet potato fries. The burger arrived well done, dry as a bone, grey inside and tasteless, while the fries were limp and lifeless. My burger in April also had lots of the delicious bourbon sauce, while I could detect none of that sauce on this one, adding to the dryness of the burger and the most unpleasant experience. My understanding is that the owner has many irons in the fire. My experience would suggest that he has perhaps too many irons, as there appears to be no one there to ensure that standards are upheld to enable consistent quality. I arrived highly anticipating another great dining experience, and left hungry and severely disappointed. So, next year when I go fishing and go there for lunch or dinner if I see Lori in the kitchen I will stay and eat, but if there's anyone else I'll leave and get a sandwich at the Bayside convenience store. Our server was kind enough to remove my meal from our bill, was very sympathetic and understanding and was generously tipped because of it, the only reason why I gave two stars.

My wife and I went on a little early spring drive and ended up in Fair Haven. We decided on Turtle…read moreCove for lunch... cuz who doesn't love turtles (but not to eat of course.) Okay, so early in the season the place looks a little divey from the parking lot... and when you first walk in... but with a friendly greeting from the server and a seat by the window I was reminded that a lot of my favorite restaurants are dives... Turtle Cove did not disappoint! Our server was delightful and happy to explain a couple of menu to items and chat a bit. The food was absolutely fantastic. Delicious, crispy tots and a huge flame grilled burger that might've made me tear up a bit it was so good. My wife found a veggie burger that she said was pretty great too. Never judge a book by it's cover. Turtle Cove may look a little rough around the edges but the great staff and great food make us look forward to coming back in the summer when the patio is open.

And for the 2nd time (well, 4th technically - we came back multiple times over each weekend), we had a terrific experience. The staff are SUPER nice here. This time 'round we had Ellie as our server, who gave us great suggestions on the specials and main menu items - and also Justin when we sat at the bar on another evening (super talented drink mixologist). They're just really great at making you feel welcome, you're taken care of every step of the way. The food comes out quick, you have just enough time to relax and chat between dishes but we've never felt like we had to wait long - despite how packed the place always gets (popular spot, for sure). But yeah aside from the terrific service, the main reason we keep coming back is the quality of the dishes they consistently put out there. This trip we got to try the "Friendship Fries" as a moderately spicy, super flavorful appetizer, and then we split a whole branzino in a delicious horseradish sauce. And because we heard great things about their burgers, we came back just now for another dinner and split one of those too - predictably great, barely any condiments needed really. Juicy, well-cooked and tasty as heck. They have a super extensive wine selection from FLX, France, Italy and all across the U.S., but we tend to order from their cocktail menu - just tried the "Ship of Theseus" today. Unique flavor and delightful to sip on. We kinda wanna find another spot in Geneva just so we don't get overly attached, and end up spending most dinners here from now on, whenever we're in town. But so far nothing else has really come close.

The service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly, polite, and attentive throughout the meal, making the experience enjoyable. The food was good, though it wasn't particularly memorable or outstanding. We both love poutine. The fries was good but the gravy was a bit too salty and it definitely need more cheese curds. Overall, it's a great spot for dinner with friends or family, especially if you're in the area and looking for a pleasant dining experience.

Our nar neighbor told us to get the chicken strips. They were so juicy that even the next morning the microwave didnt ruin them. Crispy, crunchy, savory. Never thought id crave a chicken tender but hey, what I know?! Nothing was regular bar food. The menu might seem like just another pub with frozen food to keep you drinking beer, but the owner wont serve anything he doesnt love. Everyone we talked to at the bar were locals and we're both a little sad some tourists found it but also they were too proud that this was their place and told us all their favorite menu items. Truly enjoyed our time and taste buds here.

The restaurant on the corner of Bridge and West First Streets in the center of Oswego is probably not something you'd expect to find in the area, somewhere that adds an entirely different dimension to dining in the city - a showcase of cuisine inspired by the American south. We recently tried out Southern Fare with some friends and we were all extremely impressed with the restaurant. My wife and I got there a bit earlier than our friends, so we sat at the bar for a bit. As someone who doesn't drink, I'm always excited to see mocktails on the menu. My wife got a cocktail, I got a mocktail, we both loved the drinks and the bartender was extremely nice and personable. We made a reservation for 6PM on a Saturday, although it seemed we probably didn't need one this day, so when our friends showed up, we were sat right away. Our friends ordered cocktails, while we ordered another round for ourselves, and again, loved everything we got. We ordered some friend green tomatoes for an appetizer, which were a little bland, but the sauce was good and made up for it. We all ordered a different main dish and everyone was very happy with their food. I ordered a pork chop special - I love pork chops, but don't eat them often, as my wife isn't a fan, and pork chops can be difficult to cook properly. The dish was a lemon marinated pork chop, grilled, topped with a strawberry compote, crispy fried potatoes and roasted broccoli. The pork chop was huge, cooked perfectly, juicy, bursting with flavor. The broccoli and potatoes were also delicious and needed nothing added to them. It's probably one of the best meals I've had in CNY, period. It was a little bit higher priced, but it's what we expected, and the food was absolutely worth it. We will absolutely be back again.

We look forward going a couple times each summer. In the beginning it was a great experience. It was clean, food was very good with a fair price. the past 4 visits over the last 2 years we can see how the quality has diminished. Last year I went and around the bar the trash bins were overflowing causing trash on the floor blowing everywhere. The staff knew this and din nothing. At the same time wine started to be served in plastic cups and at a higher price. This year I took my sister and her Bf from AZ there and it was a joke. The wait for food was a long long time and when it came it was not up to the same quality as in the past. I was sorry I wasted my sisters night here. We gave it another try last week. Still plastic cups with and even higher price. The pizza I ordered was the Americano but they were out of meatballs. The pizza itself was a joke. Burnt crust with so many airholes it look like caves built into the pizza for stuffing. A total waste. We are done with Colloca for this season and I doubt I will be waiting all winter to go there next spring. Whoever they hired to manage that area and the chef of the kitchen should be fired NOW.
