At the risk of repeating myself, there are a few types of restaurants I would never ever want to…read morerun in a bajillion years. BBQ is right up there at the top of the list, perhaps neck and neck with Italian-American red-sauce joints. Why? So many people have a laser focused opinions on the cuisine, and if an operator dares to diverge from that vision by an iota, the place gets torched in the reviews. Read these words: Cornell Chicken Let me tell you what Cornell Chicken isn't. It's not Texas BBQ. It's not Carolina BBQ. It's not Memphis, or St. Louis, or Kansas City, or any of the other glorious BBQ traditions that grace this very very lucky nation. It's its own thing. And it does not need any sauce. Now, how can a casual observer tell what type of roadside BBQ joint they've pulled up to for food if it's not explicitly written out someplace? Take a look at the cooking real estate. What type of gear do they have? How much space is dedicated to each thing. At Bob's, the Cornell Chicken grill is massive, as it should be. It is front and center. And on the menu, chicken comes first. That's your next big clue. Do they offer other things? Sure. If you are local and come all the time, at some point you may want to mix it up. I hear some people cannot live on chicken alone. Me? I just want all the chicken. Any bite of anything else on the plate is taking up stomach real estate that could be reserved for more chicken. And the Cornell Chicken at Bob's is delicious! Truth be told, I have had better in Oneonta. But this is right up there. The breast was a little dry, which can happen. Next time, instead of getting a half chicken a la carte, I'll opt for two dark meat quarters a la cart. Or maybe even expand the order to get a 1/4 pound of something else. But I tore that bird apart like an animal and cleaned its bones clear of all its succulent meat. And I was deeply grateful for the large handwashing sink to scrub most of the chicken fat off my shiny mitts. It was hard to eat while listening to other folks in the picnic pavilion dismiss the food for being something different than what they were expecting. However, for whatever reason Cornell Chicken just does not enjoy the fame and popularity of other regional BBQ styles despite its history, deep regional love, and sheer deliciousness. I encourage you to swing by and give it a try.

Upon arriving, we were immediately greeted by such friendly staff members. We were shown our table,…read moreand after stating it was our first time, we were adequately told how things worked in terms of ordering, receiving orders etc. We were told at the front of the restaurant is their sauce bar, alongside with appetizers and desserts. We walked up, grabbed our sauces and took a quick look at what they had to offer for appetizers and desserts. Unfortunately, the items looked dreadful. The appetizers consisted of fried chicken wings, french fries, sesame balls and a seafood boil consisting of crawfish, mussels, shrimp and corn. All the items looked dehydrated, old and way past their prime. Nevertheless, we came for the all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ and we started ordering items off the iPad and they quickly made their way to our table. A very convenient plastic bottle of oil was at every table which made cooking on the grill that much easier. We placed in a handful of different cuts/marinated meats and seafood. Everything we ordered was phenomenal. Our top favourites were the kalbi (Korean short ribs), bulgogi and scallops. I'd like to mention the service here is top notch and impeccable. We were constantly checked on, and servers were ready to clear plates off our table to avoid it being overcrowded and their attention to whether our grill needed swapping out with a fresh new one was top shelf. Overall, we had a great experience here. From the most delicious meats and seafood to the great service; we'll gladly return next time we're in the area.

We would have loved a place like this when we were on campus. This is probably an Ithaca 5. As in, for where you are, this is a good spot. When evaluating this place to a comparable offering in a bigger city, and it falls short. Staff were awesome. They came by when asked and were great. My favorite part of the entire place is the tablet ordering. I love places like that. You're not left waiting for someone to hopefully come by. Even refills and the check can be requested through the tablet, and that's great. As for the options on tbe menu when it came to BBQ, I wish they were a little better. The marinated meats lacked a little something that would take it to the next level for flavor. I found myself wishing for just a tiny bit more, but that's in comparison to coming from a bigger city with plentiful options. They had a self serve area with some foods and dessert. That was great as well.

Definitely will come back. Place was hopping but we didn't have to wait, food was really quick to come out too! Only negative which I've seen other reviewers mention ... was the drinks. (I'd suggest ordering your drink in a bottle, or bringing a drink from home...) our drinks tasted really awful. (Soda, water; etc) we narrowed it down that we think it was the ice. I wonder if the ice machine needs a cleaning. Something was not right about it. We ended up ordering bottled root-beers for $4 each because we couldn't drink the water. I won't give it a less rating for this- just something to note. Definitely will come again!

Not that thrilled with the peach drink that was 25 dollars. But I drank it. Tastes more like a Ice tea drink. Service is good. They take your order at the bar with a designated area to wait in line. Give you a buzzer to pick it up at the window. They have a condiment area to get soda, utensils, sauce sides and so on. They have seating inside and out side.

But unfortunately it was all down hill after that. We ordered the bbq platter with ribs, pulled pork and brisket and a couple sides. Everything needed help. The pork was dry, the ribs were crunchy on top (like cooked on a flattop) and the brisket was overly fatty. The sides were lack luster as well. The Mac & cheese boring mush, beans were mushy and the salt potatoes were ok. The actual bbq sauce was lacking any resemblance of bbq flavor and just a sweet, tomato ketchup sauce that had no depth of flavor. My son had a burger with fries which tasted decent. And whatever you do don't order the jalapeño poppers. I think they left the seeds in there and my mouth was on FIRE! I took one bite and I spit it out and had issues for the remainder of our meal trying to cool my mouth off. It's a small town so I get there's not many options for dining but advertising as a bbq place and delivering sub par "signature" food was disappointing. I'd never go back.
