    Harvest Host
    Shawn A.

    Great place! We were staying in their lower lot through Harvest Hosts. Went up to the restaurant to grab us some dinner. While I waited for the food, I grabbed a Moscow Mule with the local Ginger Beer. Tasty! We ordered the Pineburger, a single for her and a double for me. We both really enjoyed the burgers! They were perfectly cooked to our requested temp and they were super juicy and flavorful. We got a few sides to complement the burgers. My wife loved the fries, and I thought the Onion Rings and Corn Fritters were very good. For dessert we grabbed a Coconut Cream slice for my wife and a slice of Peanut Butter Pie for me...both tasty! My wife LOVED the Ithaca Root Beer, said it was the best she's had. The staff was wonderful! Great place and great experience!

    Good deal

    Really good burgers. Steak sandwich not as much but wasn't bad. Steak was bland but it wasn't chewy or anything. Corn nuggets (fritters) were crunchy and sweet. Really liked the onion rings. Family loved the boned and boneless wings (not buffalo sauce, the other one) lol can't remember what it was called. Yummy bloody Mary's (had 2) with well vodka at $6.50 each. Amazing. Order at the bar, take your drinks and go find a cool spot to sit either inside or out (we sat outside). Lake view too!!!

    Pine's Burger + apple sauce

    Came here on a Friday evening and it was honestly only about half full. You order at the bar here - there aren't any servers so it feels more like a bar than a restaurant (they do have what I believe is a full bar too). I got their famous pine's burger and a side of apple sauce. The burger is served not on a regular hamburger bun, but rather what seemed like a french roll. Honestly, it was a good decision - the bread was really good. However, the rest of the burger was pretty mid in my opinion and I don't know what separates it from other burgers. The food came out fast and the pricing is quite good - I paid about $12 for my whole meal.

    I didn't expect much when we pulled into the parking lot but darn it, I was 10 minutes past the hangry stage and needed food now! My husband is from the finger Lakes area and his meat Cornell chicken quite a few times at home. I've never had it at a restaurant so I thought I'd give it a shot. I was blown away at how much flavor the chicken breast had in it. It was a nice crusty roll that complemented the juicy chicken. I would definitely come here again and order the same exact thing.

    The famous Glenwood Pines burger. I don't feel like it photographs well. But it's excellent!

    To visit Ithaca without a visit to Glenwood Pines would not be complete! the burger is just so outstanding. It's a good bakery bread instead of a bun is perfection. Eating that magnificent burger while taking in Cayuga lake... Even better.

    Unique mac and cheese and good gnocchi!…read more I am debating giving the rook 3 or 4 stars... I was not a fan of the salmon mousse... far too salty and I wish it was paired with crisped bread or at least something other than Ritz crackers. I did, however, enjoy the presentation and taste of the macaroni au gratin. The square shape is very unique and I liked the cheese sauce. The lamb w gnocchi was also quite good. Pillowy and soft. The lamb was cooked well. Overall, I would maybe return. I enjoyed the macaroni au gratin as well as the lamb w gnocchi!

    Loved the Rook's design choices, filled with anthropomorphic art and light yet refined ambiance…read more It wasn't too crowded when we arrived and we were seated immediately. Staff was pleasant and quick. The menu is dominated by drink options (cocktails and wines), and happy hour is 4-5pm, which is perfect for an aperitif. The fried chicken is by far their speciality, with the macaroni coming in as a distant second. But while both were delicious, I'd say the best value and taste goes surprisingly to the simple summer salad, which was crisp, sweet, tangy, and refreshing. It's only $10 for a hefty portion of food and I'd order that again anytime (and that's coming from a guy who'd never normally order a salad). My only criticisms are that the Rook doesn't have many entree choices (which may be a good thing for indecisive diners), and that it's very slightly pricey. Otherwise, it's an easy recommend for me.

However, did love the elevated feel of a typical American bistro. We thought the service could've been more attentive, but improved as the evening progressed. Our waitress was super nice and was helpful in explaining the menu specials and answering any questions we had. Most notably on the menu, the NY strip was a perfect medium rare. We opted to get the 4 jumbo shrimp on the side, which we thought retained a nice snap when we bit into it. It was also well seasoned, while still displaying its freshness. The fries complemented the steak, but was too well done for our liking. Our other entree, the lobster mac and cheese, had a nice cheese pull. We liked the added roasted tomatoes in the baked mac and cheese, which gave it a necessary acidity that countered the creamy, cheesy roux. For our appetizer, we chose the meat and cheese board, which was really solid. Appreciated the waitress explaining the selection, as well as the addition of a sour cherry jam and pickles on the side. This gave us a lot of mix and match options (64 to be exact), and we also liked how it came with charred/toasted bread. Finally, we wrapped up with a chocolate peanut butter parfait and key lime pie. Both were really good (get both if possible, but we liked the latter more).

The thing that was different this time was I had to leave early so we visited for brunch and I quickly, was saddened that they do not serve mussels during brunch time but to my delightful surprise the chef made an exception an I was smiling so hard that the waiters were please and extremely happy for me. For that I am grateful and needed to recommend my favorite restaurant on the Ithaca commons.

    I've had brunch, lunch, and dinner at MIX, and all with varying levels of enjoyment. My recent…read morebrunch experience included ordering a Where the West Begins omelette, which includes "Braised short rib, butternut squash, red onion jam, spinach, smoked gouda". I wasn't sure how to feel about butternut squash with everything else (I'm not necessarily a huge squash fan - but I'm trying to learn to enjoy it), but the omelette was decent... it's the other side on my plate that looked less than appetizing. The biscuit was still covered in flour (and who wants to bite down on a clump of flour?), the cheddar hashbrown casserole lacked in flavor, and the brown sugar cinnamon oatmeal just... wasn't doin' it for me. Other recent experiences have been similar... there's usually one item on the plate that's flavorful or imventive (sometimes a main dish, sometimes a side), and the other parts of the plate are lacking. In reality, I think MIX is suffering a bit from rising food costs and inconsistency in their service and offerings. They've also changed the style of their menu from the original tapas-style to now being more typical entree options. Again... they've lost some of their innovative, experimental approach. In terms of ambiance, it really depends. I've been here for a work event and, because of the number of people, it was SO LOUD... they had also done a buffet offering for the event. As you can imagine, the food from the buffet was lacking, but that's often what happens when you're more mass producing your food (and it's left in a chafing dish, trying to be kept warm). On the other hand, I've been here for a dinner on a random night and was able to enjoy one of their Thai noodle bowls (and split some other apps with friends). The reality is that experiences at MIX are... well... a mix. Whether service, menu offerings, etc., I've found MIX's recent inconsistencies to be a disappointment. Will probably only visit in the future if it's suggested by others.
