    OMG!! This place is totally a do-over!! Everything I tasted was delicious!! Service was stellar!…read moreVery informative and welcoming, as well as patient with us. In the fall, they will open a full restaurant complete with a bar, and offer wine tastings, and other special events. It's not cheap, but it is stellar, from the service to the food. I got a jumbo shrimp plate that had 8 shrimps, and a salad that was divine!! I want to come here again, on a regular basis.

The location is actually quite convenient for drive by traffic because there's not much traffic in a town this size and you can hop off and back on to the highway. It is located in an industry park so plenty of parking spaces. The restaurant is also the supplier for Spanish ingredients for restaurant, so they mostly face business clients, but the owner turned the showroom to a restaurant, which is a cool concept. The restaurant has one table in winter months and most does take out so be sure to reserve it, it has a patio space outdoor in summer. The service is nice. The food we had were generally very good, I particularly liked the cured meat, pickled vegetables and cheese items. Again, the advantage of being an upstream supplier shines here. Theres no doubt that the restaurant uses top tier ingredients. However, I am less convinced by the hot dish we ordered. The thing with cooking is, for simpler dishes, an assembly of the best ingredients will speak for itself, but dishes with more complex palete require the chef to achieve a balance of flavors. The taste profile in my opinion is rather thin here, and I attribute this to the fact that the kitchen staff is limited at this moment, the chef has to do most things on her own, and I am hopeful once they iron out the staffing situation things will improve. I give 4/5 re food considering the price point.

He then called his right hand man and soon to be sous chef a "retard and told him to get the fuck out".. when Martin called him out for being unprofessional.. United helpers who runs the company had an investigation.. found him guilty and still Fired Martin instead.. his food is just classic basic Italian.. nothing original, all over priced.. mostly anything original came from Chef Kyle Mayette..

Prices are reasonable for the quality and taste of the food presented. The chef is particular in sourcing high quality ingredients that when prepared has a unique taste. Some standouts: Seafood Chowder, Burrata cheese served with heirloom tomatoes and balsamic drizzle; petite filet mignon, and a wonderful gelato spumoni encased in a chocolate shell. I know the restaurant has had its ups and downs in recent months, but it is well recommended for a revisit or a first visit. Easily the best dining experience I have ever had in Northern NY.
